He said "to this point", Spice Girls didn't yet exist for another 6 years.

The timing of them dropping Christina was quite bizarre. She was still pretty young, was considered a huge act and had just had a pretty successful era with Back to Basics. I was shocked at the time when they dropped Madonna, I assumed she'd be one of those acts who would be playlisted forever.

'The Subway' would make a nice #1, hopefully it can do it!

Hardly a week goes by...

Nope!

Liking this!

'Frozen' gives me goosebumps every time I think 'Big Mistake' is Natalie's best! Love it so much.

Calvin's clearly peaked at this stage and has had a fairly lengthy run in the top 10, I'd say it's probably about the right time for that.

Just like Alex Warren's avant-garde masterpiece.

And Neneh Cherry's 'Manchild'!

Old phone who dis?

Well done 'Golden'! That's quite a nice achievement.

'Dior' is starting to grow on me and I hate that.

What utter phucking garbage

It's not like that prevented all his others that did...

As if they skipped 'Paranoid' for this!

But it wasn't?

Rather like this!

Hooked on 'Jump' at the minute

Love the video! Feels so strange watching an actual music video by her though I like how the "she's got away part" doesn't feel like it drags on at all, like a lot of songs do when something is repeated for a long time towards the end.

'Better The Devil You Know' is an all-time great ❤️ Hopefully it'll spend multiple weeks at number one.

That chart ascent for James Blunt in 2005 really was a marvel!

Interested to see whether they go for Demi this time around at all. I know they didn't from her last era, but they seem to be throwing a lot at this and I think it has potential.

This is pretty lovely!
