Hello. Exciting news. I've made a YouTube video. It's the first of a series where we deep dive into the story behind some of the best songs of the 2000s.
This one's about Liberty X. Enjoy a short clip here and head over to YouTube for the full thing and my eternal gratitude
I'm watching Now 00s on the TV and It's Chico Time is playing and for the first time ever I'm into it. Have I drunk too much Christmas plonk or is it secretly a brilliant track?
While I still don't think it's ideal that the only way to get an original Christmas number 1 is to have to work with Amazon, it does feel amazing to have a Christmas num 1 that's actually a new song.
It's literally the first new original (ie not a cover or parody) Christmas number one that's actually about Christmas since Saviour's Day in (get ready for this) 1990! 35 years ago!!
If we get an original Christmas num 1 this year instead of Wham! I might actually have to start believing in Santa and the Baby Jesus because a miracle will have taken place share.google/IWkx1ar4jhDMY4g…
The last great moment from the pre-streaming chart era was when we all decided we'd had enough of X Factor number 1s at Christmas and decided on this instead
I don't use Spotify any more for REASONS, but I do have a playlist on my iPod where I put songs I've really been into this year, and here are some of them #iPodWrapped
JUST TO MAKE IT CLEAR BECAUSE SOMEONE JUST MESSAGED ME ABOUT WHY MY iPOD LOOKS BROKEN....IT'S SUPPOSED TO LOOK LIKE THAT, I BOUGHT A MODDED SEE THROUGH ONE ON EBAY SO I COULD GET A 1TB ONE
Working on my latest Patreon episode counting down the best number 1s of all time (coming Sunday!) and so glad to be finally asking the most important question of the 1990s
On the (free!) Substack this week we're taking an early look at some of the strangest Christmas songs ever to make the UK charts.
