• Now That's What I Call Bonus Tracks, Part 1
    Dec 22 2025

    Don't Call Me Baby, Why Did You Do It? Nowhere To Run, By The Light Of The Silvery Moon, Where Do You Want Me To Put It?


    As Noddy says "it's Christmas"... so James and Andy are offering the gift of discussing some great records that have never made the UK Top 10. In this random selection box they also find the time to ruminate on avoiding neighbours, dirty instruments, Pentecostal preachers, and where exactly would they like them to put it. Ding dong

    Happy To Be On An Island With You, You Sexy Thing, I Believe In Father Christmas, The Trail Of The Lonesome Pine, Bohemian Rhapsody


    It's the Top 5 of this UK Yuletide Top Ten so James and Andy dish out several stockings full of stories, statistics and stupid stuff (and nonsense) around these songs. As well as secrets about Santa that the very young or naïve shouldn't listen to (SANTA WARNING) James and Andy also find unusual takes on the nation's favourite number one, hospital food and Elvis's bedtime behaviour. They also wish you a very Shooby Christmas and a Bop Wop New Year

    Show Me You're A Woman, All Around My Hat, Golden Years, Na-Na Is The Saddest Word, Let's Twist Again


    It's Chriiiistmaaas! So what could be more appropriate than a look at these (albeit still randomly selected) 5 singles from the bottom half of this 50 year old festive Top Ten? Strangely there's only one Xmas song in the whole caboodle so Andy and James are drawn into discussing sad words, working underground AND overground and, because it's nice to have a party this time of year, twisting and morris dancing.


    Merry Dooby and Happy New Shoo Wop!

    Donna, A Fool Such As I, Petite Fleur, Side Saddle, It Doesn't Matter Anymore


    Whilst tirelessly separating the stories from the legends behind the Top 5 of this late 50s chart, Andy and James speculate on fateful coin tosses, crypto currencies, ivory and ebony ticklers alongside a smattering of ill-advised and poorly executed jive talkin'

    Stagger Lee, My Happiness, C'mon Everybody, Smoke Gets In Your Eyes, Charlie Brown


    It's the tail end of the fabulous fifties so as well as the facts and fabrications behind these fantastic five records that form the bottom half of the Top 10, James and Andy discuss gambling grudges, soaking spit-balls, power mad prefects as well as instantly mastering the art of all them other mental health/true crime type podcasts.

    1 Thing, Feel Good Inc, Lonely, City Of Blinding Lights, Axel F


    As they get into the legend and libel behind the best selling records from 15th June 2005, Andy and James converse about cartoon characters, fascinating go-go rhythms and chance meetings with pop stars and disc jockeys in hotel lobbies.

    Best Of You, Don't Phunk With My Heart, Feels Just Like It Should, Shot You Down, You're Beautiful


    As well as exploring the stories behind this Top 10 from 2005, Andy and James find themselves discussing when vocalists are confused with the collective, who sings about being 'the best' the most and what is the ideal soundtrack for a heavy night out at Laser Tag.

    For Your Eyes Only, Who's Crying Now, Stop Draggin' My Heart Around, Arthur's Theme, Endless Love


    Yee-hah! It's the pinnacle of this American Top 10, randomly selected to celebrate Thanksgiving and Andy and James explore 'somebody done somebody wrong' songs, holding patterns in aerospace, not allowing women in the band and, because it's an American Top 10, spray cheese.
