That was the best version of Brimful of Asha and Good Ships was probably the best song on that album. There - I've said it #TOTP

If they ask you how you perform under pressure, tell them you can do Bowie's part, but they'll have to be Freddie Mercury.

It still gets to me after all this time that All Saints were telling us that they were trying to find questions, they obviously already knew the questions but were actually after answers #totp

My friends all took the piss out of me at the time, but it's nights like these that I'm glad I did that City and Guilds in Popemobile valeting.

Speaking as a lapsed Catholic and West Brom fan in my forties, today's news is pretty much like hearing that two blokes have given up looking after the bowling green on your local park thirty years after you had a shit on it during a Diamond White session.

I knew Gil Scott Heron's dad had played a game for Celtic, but my new fact of the day is that he turned out for Kidderminster Harriers and my life is all about that kind of local trivia.

After nearly thirty years, it's nice to be reminded of how shite Cast were, how much of a bellend Finlay Quaye was, and how clearly Mark Lamarr expressed his disdain for all of this #totp

I reckon the theme from 'Cheers' is the pinnacle of where yacht rock was heading.

For context, Radiohead's 'Paranoid Android' was releasedas a single on the Monday following the broadcast of the second of tonight's 1997 #TOTP repeats. So, there's something to ponder.

I think I saw him with Sabres of Paradise around then supporting Primal Scream in Stoke, but I saw a lot of stuff in the 90's in various states of 'enhancement'.

Five years since we lost this genius. More than thirty years since he did this - still sounds utterly imperious and fair to say it did have massive influence on me which lasts to this day youtube.com/watch?v=felj...

I like Spiritualized as such, but I really like Spacemen 3, so I guess there's positives for heroin abuse in that respect.

I'm sorry, but it's difficult to watch the BeeGees in the latter 1990s without thinking of the Chaka Khan western shoot-out sketch off Big Train #Totp
