I’m a bit meh at that Enya song too. Much prefer the lovely Book Of Days from her.

Goldeneye, The Universal and Its Oh So Quiet are the picks from the newbies from me.

It was close going into Saturday, CD:UK had Out Of Your Mind at number 1, but it was clear it wasn’t certain.

I may be the only one, but I love Abs & Nodeesha - Little Miss Perfect from 2003.

Booo at Not Over Yet missing the top 30. At least I helped it win a tie break.

I never knew that song was called Green Onions! :o I also assumed it was a 60s song.

In terms of Woolies and their expectations, I remember they had Kylie - Spinning Around at 5 and Geri - Mi Chico Latino at 6. I guess Kylies return was an unpredictable one given her less successful 1997 era and Geri missed the top spot with Look At Me, so that could be why.

That was very expected at the time.

Re: Whole Again - wasn’t it boosted initially by Westlife fans giving support as they were about to be dropped? 99% sure I read something about that at the time.

I know, given I regularly post songs outside the top 10 on TOTP, I’d appreciate it if you could wait for me first!

Selected tracks outside the Top 10 TOTP 4th & 11th November 1995 Echobelly - King Of The Kerb Chart entry this week & Peak: 25 nEZp1qM7FGc The rather fab follow up to Great Things. Its a shame this didn't chart higher :( McAlmont & Butler - You Do Chart entry this week & Peak: 17 R5jkWfmisj8 Another great follow up. Nowhere near as well known as Yes, this is still a great showcase for 2 huge talents. Saint Etienne feat. Etienne Daho - She's On The Phone Chart entry this week & Peak: 11 0a6WU8GKJNo How the hell was this not top 10?! Glorious, glorious glorious tune.

I’ll be popping in my usual outside the top 10 post later (including He’s On The Phone).

Woah, I never knew how close Oasis and Coolio were! :o Almost at number 3 entry for Wonderwall. If there was a half ok Robson and Jerome song, I suppose I Believe would be it.

This is a tune!

I think go back 80-82, then 88 to 94. Nice and tidy then (plus a good interlude before 1988 starts!)

Missing is the best pick from these 2 by far - and still one of the best dance songs of all time. Gangstas Paradise is a great chart topper - way better than the last 2. Meat Loaf is awful. Thought so then, think so now.

I had blocked Rik Waller from my memory. Thanks for that :(

Still waiting (impatiently) for these.

Colm & I are very proud to release the 3 disc Britpop+ collection. Enjoy!

Selected tracks outside the Top 10 TOTP 9th, 16th, 23rd & 30th September 1995 Cast - Alright Chart entry this week & Peak: 13 s6F61PpPxYQ The second single from the All Change album, this is another great Indie track from Cast. Garbage - Only Happens When It Rains Chart entry this week & Peak: 29 5_SmlaRrZHs TOTP debut from the wonderful Garbage. Shame this didn't peak higher, but its a great taste of what's to come from them. Menswear - Stardust Chart entry this week & Peak: 16 LrGKesNts5k Their second hit, inferior to their other singles imo, but still decent. Sleeper - What Do I Do Now? Chart entry this week & Peak: 14 K9S-VZAxGQQ Sleeper proving that they were an overlooked Britpop band - they deserved the plaudits that the bigger (male) bands got imo. Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds feat. Kylie Minogue - Where The Wild Roses Grow Chart entry this week & Peak: 11 5-O7UZgxGIU A bit of a dark turn from Kylie here. Still not sure if I like it?! Radiohead - Lucky Chart entry this week & Peak: 51 9FhjYvfJhSE Taken from the chart topping Help! album and released as part of Warchild Help EP, it is criminal how low this peaked. Its endearing quality has shone through as it was included on the best album of all time, OK Computer.
