Remember when Sugababes brought in Big Sam for six months? #GirlbandsForever

Zella Day - My Game (2020) youtu.be/le6_Eim7G3E?...

Goldeneye & Star Wars on ITV1 this afternoon. I think I would’ve preferred it if they had kept this for Christmas Day afternoon instead.

Cyber Baroque chamber orchestra RONDO VENIZIANO's incredible animated video, 'La Serenissima', would often pop up unannounced on afternoon telly in the early 80s. Here they are performing live on Kafka-esque gameshow 3-2-1, and it's an amazing sight to see (and hear)!

Saturday

Me, flirting

Getting chilly out there

Why do all boys in their late teens and early twenties these days look like Chris Needham from ‘In Bed With Chris Needham’?

Friday

Aye..

Everyone needs to check out Freya Beer. She has released some killer pop songs in the last two years. She’s PJ Harvey, Vanessa Paradis, Anna Calvi & Lana Del Rey all rolled into one. I think fans of Suede will also like her music. Give her a follow! 👇 @freyabeer.bsky.social youtu.be/Dwmxw4AzO4k

I think this picture calls for a new Jim Bob song @mrjimbob.bsky.social

“I'm afraid expulsion is the only answer. It's the opinion of the entire staff that Dexter is criminally insane..sane..sane..sane..sane..” youtu.be/EkiYXxEg1rI?...

This must have taken around three months to finally reach the top ten. youtu.be/4s7ac7p3P0c?...

Inspired by The Jase's video, I realised that the Mr Blobby song also works quite well with the John Lewis advert. But then it took a dark turn...

At The Cluny venue in Newcastle (again) for Echobelly

If I were left in charge I would ban fireworks and chewing gum

Watching ‘Girl Bands Forever’ and all I can think of is when did everybody get old? (including myself) …It doesn’t seem five minutes ago when I used to watch the lovely Jenny Frost on ‘Snog Marry Avoid?’ on BBC Three.

The meaning of this year’s John Lewis advert is… Life is miserable now and we were all much happier when we were on ecstasy

In the new John Lewis advert they could’ve actually used Russ Abbot’s ‘Atmosphere’ for the club scene and then finally Spray’s version to end with and it still would’ve worked. #MissedOpportunity @ricardoautobahn.co.uk @spraypopmusic.com

Wonder if this still keeps him awake at night

This is what life must have been like in the war

The John Lewis Xmas ad drops tomorrow and it's Atmosphere by Russ Abbot! youtu.be/vpYMXjVzC04?... @lancashirehotpots.bsky.social @spraypopmusic.com

I think it’s time for a Burundi Beat revival in pop music

Monday

Has everybody’s Dad carved a turnip this evening?

I watched the Beautiful South mime along to this at the Radio One Roadshow in Newcastle during half term in October 1994

Happy Students in Cosplay Day

I remember it being a long wait to finally hear all the new songs after the release of ‘Common People’ and their Glastonbury performance earlier in the year

I always thought Blur should’ve released a singles compilation after The Great Escape in 96 She’s So High I Know There’s No Other Way Bang Popscene For Tomorrow Chemical World Sunday Sunday Girls & Boys To the End Parklife End of a Century Country House The Universal Stereotypes Charmless Man

I’m not the only one then
