5. The Universal 'The Universal' featured on Blur's fourth studio album, The Great Escape. It was released on 13 November 1995 as the second single from that album, charting at number five on the UK Singles Chart. In keeping with the song's science fiction theme, the single's cover art is an allusion to the opening shot of 2001: A Space Odyssey, and the music video is a tribute to the movie A Clockwork Orange, with the band dressed up in costumes similar to Alex and his droogs.

No worries. Thanks for hosting this and take care of yourself :)

Think I said Limp Bizkit too Wardy :)

I actually really like that, never thought I’d say that about anything Shane Ward is involved with.

A few that come to my mind:- Kelly Clarkson - Breakaway - peak No.22 - Great track and was massive on the radio at the time and still one of her best tracks Tiesto - Adagio For Strings - Peak No.37 - Arguably the most popular version of this track The Killers - All These Things I Have Done - peak No. 18 - One of their big singalong signature tracks Sean Paul - Temperature - peak No.11 - Still a massive club hit to this day Sum 41 - In Too Deep - peak No. 13 - Another big track from the early 2000's which gets more airplay than their actual Top 10 'Fat Lip' The Streets - Has It Come To This - peak No.18 - one of his signature tracks

'The Universal' for me once again.

6. Coffee & TV "Coffee & TV" is a 1999 song by the British rock band Blur. It was written by the band's guitarist, Graham Coxon, who also sang lead vocals, rather than frontman Damon Albarn. The song appears on Blur's sixth studio album, 13 and was the second single released from the album. The lyrics describe Coxon's struggle with alcoholism and the song's video, featuring a sentient milk carton searching for Coxon, won several awards. Commercially, "Coffee & TV" reached No. 11 in the United Kingdom, but Blur's manager Chris Morrison believed that it was deprived of a top 10 place after it was confirmed that some sales figures were not recorded.

Pleased to see 3 Foo Fighters songs in the Top 100 with 2 in the Top 75. Great result.

Hope Foo Fighters don't freefall this week and would be great to see Pale Waves Top 5...better still Top 3.

Looks like 'Wellerman' isn't climbing up then :lol: Great to see Rag 'N' Bone Man added

I can see Radio 1 re-adding this to their playlist...if not this week, then next!

Let's celebrate the 10th anniversary of what is possibly the most hated song of the 21st Century. Great idea! :lol:

Reminds me of Liam Gallagher I like. The piano at times sounds similar to FGTH’s ‘The Power Of Love’

Neither is the Bob The Builder version of ‘Mambo No5’

Would be great if all 3 Foo Fighters songs could remain Top 100 by Friday. Great to see strong sales for the album too.

Always is on the first look.

That was a June release too. Album sales were high all year round back then.

He's had some amazing hits! 'Ecuador', 'Adelante' 'Mysterious Times' and 'Stay' were all superb tracks!

Pretty Meh on first listen. May grow on me in time, but I'm not rushing to listen again

Unfortunately in the early 2000's, the Hits albums stopped Now! from getting the rights to alot of the Number 1's. They were very cheap and tacky albums as they used to feature 50+ hits on one disc, great value for money granted, but they used to fade tracks out about 2:30 through to squeeze all the songs on.
