Strategically not voting for these despite them clearly being among the very best there:

 

Radiohead - Street Spirit (Fade Out)

Faithless - Insomnia

 

 

...so I'll go with these five:

 

Bucketheads - The Bomb! (These Sounds Fall Into My Mind)

Jamiroquai - Virtual Insanity

TLC - Waterfalls

Everything But The Girl - Missing

Suede - Trash

 

 

plus these also deserve a play :(

 

Ini Kamoze - Here Comes The Hotstepper

Seal - Kiss From A Rose / I'm Alive

R.E.M. - E-Bow The Letter

Charlatans - One To Another

Also played:

 

Haddaway - What Is Love [joint poll winner as best #2 played last week]

Kylie Minogue - Confide In Me [the other joint poll winner]

Olivia Rodrigo - bad idea right? [current #1 album track]

Doja Cat - Paint The Town Red [last week's new #1 single]

Scatman John - Scatman (Ski-Ba-Bop-Ba-Dop-Bop) [honorary 11th bonus]

Roger Whittaker deserves an RIP slot. We've already heard The Last Farewell as a number two single, so Durham Town or New World In The Morning would be decent choices.

Irish Grinstead from the band 702 passed away the other day as well - I see Missy Elliott had a hit that featured both 702 and Magoo who also passed away a few weeks ago, perhaps that could get a play as a belated RIP for both of them?

 

(I remember reading about Magoo passing but I didn't recognise the name or know he had any hits so didn't think to mention it here - seems he was most notable for being a double act with Timbaland)

Another 36 new #2s (with two double A-sides) to come on Sunday, including 4 of the 5 from the kings of #2s without a #1. There are 95 songs to choose from in the bonuses:
