The pop music podcast reliving the UK Top 40 singles charts of the 2000s, one week at a time.Every week, culture writer Samuel Spencer relives the singles chart...
Was Gwen Stefani always secretly lame, or did she has lameness thrust upon her? In the latest episode of the pop show reliving the 40 biggest selling songs from this time in 2005, we ask this very important question. We're also answering these very important pop music conundrums - why did Beverley Knight try to do a Jamelia, and why did it fail? Which member of G4 is to blame for one of the most pathetic break-ups of all time? Why did Green Day do something unspeakable on a Belfast bowling green? And most importantly of all: What would it take for the British record buying public to give Jem's song They the respect it deserves?Alongside these crucial answers, we're talking about the following iconic bits of 2000s pop:Akon - Locked UpBasement Jaxx - Oh My GoshBeck - E-ProBeverley Knight - Keep This Fire BurningThe Black Velvets - 3345The Bravery - An Honest MistakeBritney Spears - Do Somethin’Cabin Crew - Star to FallElvis Presley - Good Luck CharmElvis Presley - She’s Not YouEminem - Like Toy SoldiersG4 - Bohemian RhapsodyThe Game feat. 50 Cent - How We DoGirls Aloud - Wake Me UpThe Glitterati - You Got Nothing on MeGreen Day - HolidayGwen Stefani ft Eve - Rich GirlHoward Brown - You’re the First the Last My EverythingJay-Z and Linkin Park - Numb/EncoreJem - TheyJennifer Lopez - Get RightJohn Legend - Used to Love UJoss Stone - SpoiledKaiser Chiefs - Oh My GodLL Cool J feat. 7 Aurelius - HushThe Mars Volta - The WidowMcFly - All About You/You’ve Got a FriendNelly feat.
