    Reach For The Stars, Well I Ask You, Romeo, Johnny Remember Me, You Don't Know


    It's the pinnacle of this particular week's UK Top 10, so apart from the relevancies and bit of rhetoric behind these great singles, James and Andy find themselves ruminating on the influence of Renaissance poets, the influence of the Bible on the charts and, let's face facts, the influence of the Muppets again probably.

    As they explore the stories, statistics and stupidities of the lower half of this early 60's UK Top 10, Andy and James also get drawn into the subjects of the presence of amphibians in the pop universe, the nature of temptation and where you can get hold of a copy of the great American songbook.

    Come Live With Me, Double Dutch, Who's That Girl? IOU, Wherever I Lay My Hat (That's My Home)


    It's still raining! But that won't stop us getting into the upper echelons of this 80s UK Top 10 singles chart. James and Andy uncover the actual truth and what is merely the tittle AND the tattle about these classic songs, as well as finding time to talk of acceptable age differences in relationships, the apparent importance of vowel sounds in pop and the inspiration that can come from a skipping rope. The weather might be awful but there's a kind of vibe to it yeah?
