The UK Top 40 26th August 2005

The first two are correctly ranked on top, as "Country House" is the best song here, followed by "Roll With It".

I have to go with numba 5.

This is of course from 1995, not 2005. My bad

"Waterfalls"

Best advice given in a song, ever.

Bjork.

Best advice given in a song, ever.

The same advice was given in a much better song 15 years earlier though.

Which song was that?
Pardon my ignorance.

"Waterfalls". Same title, different song.

Not P.M.!?

PMC more like.

QUICK AND DIRTY UK TOP 40 POLL: 26/08/1995

HOW HAVE ILM'S VIEWS CHANGED IN SIX MONTHS?

Yeah, same deal.

Well I am glad I now know that.

The Shamen - Destination Eschaton ftw.

also:

How did "Fluff" Freeman announce Moist - Push on the Pick of the Pops top forty rundown?

I always wondered how TLC got away with such a blatant lyrical lift from the other song, and why the other song's writer didn't claim for plagarism.

"Don't go chasing waterfalls" vs "Don't go jumping watergfalls"

It's like "Chasing Pavements" vs "Chasing Cars"

I want to change my vote now..

"Phony Calls"

Mom and dad are goin' out for the evening
And you're stuck inside the house all alone
That's when you decide it might be fun to harrass someone
Dial a random number up on your telephone
You ask if their refrigerator is running
Then you tell 'em they should go out and catch it
Buddy, if they ever figured out where you were callin' 'em from
They'd come and bust your head right in with a ratchet
Listen to me

Don't go makin' phony calls
Please stick to the seven-digit numbers you're used to
I know that you think it's funny drivin' folks right up the wall
But it's really gettin' old fast

Little Melvin has a natural obsession
Askin' for Prince Albert in a can
He gets a kick each time he makes a collect call
To some guy he doesn't know who lives in Japan
He's callin' strangers up at three in the morning
Gives 'em pizza pie delivery at four
He won't be laughin' when they're tracin his line
One day the phone police will be there at his door
Yo, hear me

Don't go makin' phoney calls
Only dial the seven-digit numbers you're used to
Swear someday I'm gonna yank that phone cord right out from the wall
How long is this phase gonna last?
Come on

[Moe :] Moe's Taverne - Where the elite meet to drink.
[Bart:] Uh, yeah, hello, is Mike there? Last name Rotch.
[Moe :] Hold on; I'll check.
[Moe :] My crotch! My crotch! Hey, has anybody seen my crotch lately?
[others laughing]
[Moe :] Listen to me, you little puke.
[Moe :] One of these days, I'm gonna catch you
[Moe :] And I'm gonna carve my name on your back with an icepick!
[Bart laughing]

Don't go makin' phoney calls
Only dial the seven-digit numbers you're used to
You went through the New Yourk City phone book and prank-called 'em all
Hope that you grow out of this fast
Grow out of this fast...

Don't go makin' phoney calls
Only dial the seven-digit numbers you're used to
But you think it's funny drivin' folks right up the wall
But it's really gettin' old fast

Fluff? Mark Goodier would have been doing the Top 40 show at this time following Bruno Brookes' swift exit for playing uncensored "Killing In The Name" and then Nine Inch Nails' uncensored "Closer" the following week.

None of you cunts voted for Son Of A Gun the first time round, so I'm going with that.

that's the way to persuade the elecorate

ELECTORATE

"Son Of A Gun" would have been better if they'd explained who that "Jeremy" was.

Re: Fluff.. I know (but you knew), I was bein' iron.

I'm still gettin over "9pm (Till I come)" getting maximum airplay and title announcement back when it was a hit, and onwards.

And they asked the bloke how he came by the title, and he said it was because it was 9PM when he finished it...

Gudmundsdottir!

Girl From Mars!

LET ME TAKE YOU FROM BEHIND

Bjork for me
