About this listen

We must have all been on the naughty list in Christmas 2005, because Santa gave us the horrible gift of the best singer ever to be in a girlband exiting the group.

This huge news eclipsed everything in the chart this week, which is very much a dumping ground before the big race for the Christmas number 1 begins. But we are getting new stuff like an incredibly ill-advised single from Charlotte Church, one of Franz Ferdinand’s best-ever songs and a dance cover of an 80s ballad classic.This week’s The 2000s Chart Show features the following tracks
