Ingrate 90s teen audience members ACTIVELY ROLLING THEIR EYES at being subjected to Björk's Joga :D

PEARLS BEFORE SWINE
 
I missed the first hour due to Mr S wanting to watch Emmerdale so currently on the 1988 episode. Pebbles with "Girlfriend" is a :disco:tune. Shame she's a ROBBING BASTARD.
 
I have a fairly high tolerance for M People, but Just For You really is absolute slop. Could be an Ed Sheeran single.
 
Bless, I bet Louise was having absolute kittens being on the same show as her idol JANFT.

Got Till It's Gone really shouldn't work as well as it does.
 
Does this pleasing forgotten Eurobanger have the exact same backing track as Gypsy Woman, or did everything just sound like this at the time? I assumed it WAS Crystal Waters at first.

 
Theakston tacitly acknowledging the unsayable truth that everybody was sick to the back teeth of Candle in the Wind by this point…
 
What in the white nonsense is this Catch track all about? Absolutely ZERO memory of it, or them!
 
Christ this Lighthouse Family track feels like it's been going for about TEN MINUTES.
 
Wicked as the SISTERS GRIM might be, Angel of Mine remains a lovely track.

This was effectively the end of them though, wasn't it? You can almost hear the ominous sound of poor Kellé's fax machine whirring up in the background. :(
 
Just accidentally deleted the first 1997 episode to Mr S CHAGRIN

I player to the rescue after a struggle. This is why I don't drink nowadays, viewers
 
You still record stuff, in the year of our lord 2025?!
I'm OLD OK

And yes rather drunk but despite this shite meat & potatoes Oasis song (which plagiarised Mott The Hoople) I'd probably do Liam so THERE WE ARE @VoR DEAR

:WellThereWeAre:

(Sorry I'm drunk)

It's a LOAD OF MY ARSE but I am currently annoying Mr S with an impression of her HONKING :disco:

Lazy rip off WANK yet Mr S agrees with your BAD TASTE

*mumbles vague shite & gets top 10 hit, Paula Abdul AGOG*
 
Little dig at Lithuania there from Mark Lamarr. I always remembered it. My neighbours are Lithuanian. Wanker (Mark, not my lovely neighbours) .

An incredible song that really should have lasted longer. The Monica version a poor copy. Although can you imagine the EGOS of the SISTERS GRIMM if this had gone on to reach number 1 in America? :D :basil:
 
Arms Around The World :disco:

Nothing shows up the absurd double standards more than Jamie Theakston's implication that Louise and Liam Gallagher are even on the same PLANET in terms of physical attractiveness :D
Also I was AGOG at how utterly clapped Noel looked!

Howled at this being a Joni Mitchell featuring credit. Why on earth did she release it first over Together Again though?
 
I think it actually played out quite well for her. Together Again helped prolong The Velvet Rope and gave it a longer shelf life that Got Til Its Gone as a second single would never have done.

And imagine the lost royalties for DES'REE had GTIG been a minor #23 smash. She'd have never been able to buy that pottery kiln.
 
Also god, Arms Around The World fucks so hard I can barely BREATHE :disco: Love Louise taking heavy inspiration from the recording career of Naomi Campbell

God that episode was a SLOG. After all that crud and when you think it can't get any worse JANET BLOODY JACKSON, Elton's B-SIDE sounded INSPIRED
 
Getting my fantasy Idol/X Factor winners single jush to the Elton B-side :disco: (I would have the approximate commercial prospects of Joe McElderry.)
 
That Tina Moore record really stuck around, didn’t it?

I’ve always found it quite cold, but I guess it must have sounded like the future in 1997. Feels much more of a 2000 record.
 
”For those who find the Teletubbies too much of an intellectual challenge, that was Aqua”

God I’d forgotten what a DOUR PRICK Jo Whiley was in this era :manson:
