Get in, Hannah! 💚💚💚

Boyzone did it worse #totp

“Here’s Survivor with that one song they do” - Janice Long #totp

Steps did it better #totp

Kenny Rogers looks like if Noel Edmonds was a big American evangelist preacher #totp

Iron Maiden of all things. This episode is eclectic if nothing else. #totp

Ah, I thought, Cliff will give me an opportunity to duck out and get on with things. And then it was a Cliff song that isn’t shite. Still here then. #totp

Was that a young Elphaba dancing around in the hotel function room The Ramones are playing in? #totp

Blondie and The Ramones on the same episode, that’s quite a treat. #totp

Shaky start to this episode but the Blondie/Beat/Buggles trilogy that followed was decent. I wasn’t meant to be watching the 80s episodes, I’ve got stuff to do… #totp

What was actually the point of Shakin’ Stevens? #totp

I like Martine. She had some really good songs as well as this one. #totp

Lisa’s rap is back, all is forgiven #totp

I remember not thinking much of this Suede song but being excited to go on a London trip to go round the back of the Astoria to see the alley the video was filmed in #totp

Love Of A Lifetime is a banger #totp

I don’t remember this either but I like it #totp

“Johnny Marr, plays harmonica” - A Tribe of Toffs, probably #totp

No recollection of this at all, certainly not a vivid one #totp

This still stands #totp

A new Phats and Small performance made immediately better by Gail Porter joining in with the dancing in the background #totp

At least they filmed a couple of different versions of that one though! #totp

We’re up to 46 now #totp

I invited Martine McCutcheon to my 12th birthday party in 99. She couldn’t make it but sent back the rsvp slip with her autograph on it. #totp

I actually quite liked Geri’s first solo album though #totp

I remember when Look At Me came out it was very much a Big Deal #totp

The bloke from the New Radicals also cowrote Life Is A Rollercoaster, you know #totp

Shola Ama has done some decent stuff. This is not it. #totp

The Cranberries were very good #totp

They cut out Lefteye’s rap! Outrageous behaviour after treating us to it last time #totp

The best thing Meat Loaf did was drive the Spice Girls’ bus #totp
