July 22, 20222 yr 'Feel Good Inc.' is a must! :wub: for the other two I'd probably pick 'S.O.S.' and 'When You Were Young' Normal time should be fine for me this week but not massively fussed either way
July 22, 20222 yr I don't mind a later slot, though 7-10 would be a little awkward even in the holidays as I usually have to prepare dinner at that time! There's a chance I may miss quite a bit of this week's (if it stays at 4-7), but I'm hoping I can still catch some of it as 2005/6 were great years for chart toppers and it's the first time I started my weekly listening to the chart show! Gonna miss next week and potentially the week after so sadly not gonna see a lot of my peak chart geek days (the number 1s of that period weren't incredible granted, though I have a lot of memories attached to them), hopefully no issues after x My top 3 from that lot would be Feel Good Inc, When You Were Young and the highly underrated Nature's Law, quite a few others there I'd be fine with hearing though.
July 22, 20222 yr Happy to go along with Gorillaz and The Killers which seem to be consensus picks, I think they'd both at least be in my top 5 of this lot. Although I think I'd put 'Gold Digger' and 'Speed Of Sound' as my top 2 so one of those being played as well would be fab (I see we have much less of a consensus for a third song oops x). 'Tripping' being the other one that I think would complete my top 5, actually forgot that charted as high as #2! I'm happy with the current timeslot still but wouldn't be hugely bothered if it was moved a bit later.
July 24, 20222 yr Author Join us from 4 for our session covering 2005-2006! There's some rubbish incoming around the 3 hour mark but we can finish on a good song if you have a little patience. https://sync-tube.de/rooms/ELQi-A6wO
July 24, 20222 yr ^ ooh enjoy! Having a barbecue a bit later but will come and join for at least some of it now ^_^
July 26, 20222 yr I've been fine with these sessions clashing with dinner / washing up time (usually between 5.30-6.30) as I can still listen and comment a bit, though not as much, but since 4-7 has worked for everyone else most weeks I've been happy to stick with it. However I will suggest we move the time this Sunday, since it clashes with the Euro 2022 final starting 5pm, which the Lionesses have now reached! I'm happy with either 7-10 or an earlier time like 1.30-4.30 (allowing an extra 30 mins on the end for the bonus tracks). Which would everyone prefer?
July 26, 20222 yr Author I couldn’t do earlier this week as I’ll be travelling back from a weekend away but 7-10 would be fine. I guess there’s a danger of the match going beyond 7 though with extra time?
July 27, 20222 yr If it comes to that, personally I'd still be OK with us starting at 7 and dividing attention between that and the football for a bit. It's the prospect of splitting my attention 3 ways and having dinner at the same time that's a bit much.
July 27, 20222 yr I had (wrongly) assumed the football started at 8:00. A 5:00 kick-off is rather awkward.
July 27, 20222 yr Author Timing of Sunday's session still open to discussion but in the meantime here's the #2 list.

July 28, 20222 yr oh Foundations is a must, not only cos the song is genius but cos it missed the top by a very narrow margin I know it's overplayed and abused on the XF auditions but always liked KOL-Use Somebody Also like Adele-Chasing Pavements, nice little tune from when Duffy was bigger than her... lots of great #2s actually, really like most of those
July 28, 20222 yr Agree it would be wrong not to include Foundations. I'd also choose Hey There Delilah and Jeff Buckley's Hallelujah :heart:
July 29, 20222 yr Lots of good ones there. Jeff Buckley's Hallelujah is a must to erase the memories of the X Factor demolition job. Brianstorm, Your Love Alone Is Not Enough, Valerie and Rule The World should all be contenders.
July 31, 20222 yr Author OK unless anyone objects in the next hour or so we’re going with the later slot, starting at 7. Good luck lionesses! 🦁
July 31, 20222 yr Sorry for the slow reply, been away the last few days - fine with having a later timeslot today (although I think that means it may be clashing with BJSC results so I might be a tad more distracted than usual). My picks for the #2s today would be 'Brianstorm', 'Hallelujah' and 'Day 'N' Nite' I think! But plenty of other good stuff there.
July 31, 20222 yr Later slot definitely works for me too as I have family round at the moment! Would probably choose Rule The World, Your Love Alone Is Not Enough and Let Me Think About It
