So is another week skipped next week? I was telling my friends daughter who I watch TOTP with about Princess Diana’s week of mourning and I can’t remember if there was a TOTP that week or not? Most things were cancelled iirc.

Some crackers! Tubthumping - still love this, should’ve been number 1. Filmstar - epic 5th top 10 from Coming Up - impressive for an indie act. All I Wanna Do - a breath of fresh air from Dannii, dance was the right way forward for her.

Haven’t heard You for many a year. Still a joyous pop moment!

Nothing says nice tribute like a sex trafficker?!

Ahhh Black Eyed Boy is soo good from Texas. Totally forgot about that Peter Andre non event.

Echo Everybody being a classic Backstreet Boys track - the video certainly adds to this.

Blinded By The Sun & Lazy Days are both tunes!

Woah! I knew Oasis were big that week but not that big!

Somethings Going On is such a classy dance song. Still love it.

Love love Ecuadoooooooor! Impressive sales

Woolies often misfired and under and over predicted. I don’t think Puff Daddy was a shoe in before that week so it’s understandable. But I remember going to buy The Verve on the Monday and Puff Daddy had sold out and the Verve hadn’t so I had an inkling. I have no idea why I distinctly remember this, my memory is shocking these days!!

I remember Woolies having The Verve at 1 and Puff at 6. If only that was the case! Bittersweet Symphony is one of THE songs of the 90s and yet another amazing 90s number 2. Echo’s comeback is superb - a song I still listen to today. Blur’s On Your Own is pretty decent, as are OCS and Cast. A Britpop-tastic top 10.

Yep, usually to £3.99
