    Fergie's 'London Bridge' and Jamelia Calling Javine a Slag (10 - 16 Sep 2006)

    “Yeah, but she really is a slag though.” With those immortal words, Jamelia bodied Javine...but while that line is still rightly celebrated, we have forgotten how great Jamelia’s music was in 2006. Luckily, your favourite 2000s pop music history where every episode we’re revisiting the UK top 40 singles chart from this week 20 years ago is here to change that. This week, we’re also talking about Fergie’s ridiculous solo debut (and inability to tell London’s bridges apart), Kelis starting a feud with 50 Cent and the weirdest piece of promo I’ve ever seen a flop pop star do in all my time researching the 00s.

    Robbie's 'Rudebox', Nelly Furtado's 'Promiscuous' and the Return of Scissor Sisters (3 - 9 September 2006)

    Few pieces of pop music have dented a career quite like Robbie Williams’ Rudebox, so I’m so glad to finally be able to talk about this weird electro-rap song about how TK Maxx costs less and how you don’t sweat much for a fat lass. Once called the worst song ever, is it (whisper it) actually a brilliant piece of 2000s pop? We find out on the latest episode of the music history podcast where every week we relive the singles chart from this week 20 years ago. Elsewhere on the pop music charts this week in 2006: Nelly Furtado’s US number one finally gets its UK release - which Nelly seems intent to destroy the memory of with her weird new version. Plus the Scissor Sisters are back with Elton John in tow and their biggest track yet, I Don’t Feel like Dancin’.Also on this week’s edition of The 2000s Chart Show: * Muse spell out ‘T**S’ in Morse Code * Sandi Thom has a meltdown * We discover the real person that inspired Chelsea Dagger by The Fratellis All that plus the following 2006 tracks:Arctic Monkeys - Leave Before the Lights Come On Basement Jaxx - Hush Boy Beyoncé feat.

    This week on the 2000s pop music history podcast reliving every song from the singles charts of the 00s… “I just want you to know who I am,” bellowed Ronan Keating this week in 2006, as our most anonymous pop star covers The Goo Goo Dolls and derails his career.
