    A One-Eyed Freda Payne for the New Labour era - 18th February 1996 (Ep27)

    Greetings all you Lifers! Join Juliet and Ed as they count down the UK Top 40 Singles Chart as it was revealed on 18th February 1996, where Babylon Zoo's 'Spaceman' was set to spend a fifth week at the summit unless one of the new singles from (deep breath) Gabrielle, Blur, Robert Miles, Alanis Morissette, Deborah Cox, Björk or Whitney Houston could dislodge it.

    Join Juliet and Ed as they count down the UK Top 40 Singles Chart as it was announced on 11th February 1996! Can anybody dislodge Babylon Zoo's 'Spaceman' from Number One?

    Greetings to all you Lifers! Join Juliet and Ed as they count down the UK Top 40 Singles Chart as it was announced on 4th February 1996! Where we left it last time, Babylon Zoo were enjoying a second week at the top with 'Spaceman', but this week there are 13 new entries looking to topple Jas Man and his band, including Smashing Pumpkins, East 17, Joan Osborne, Lighthouse Family, Gemini and BT... plus a reissued golden oldie from Etta James that starred on a certain steamy Diet Coke ad.

    This Really is Very Irish - 21st January 1996 (Ep23)

    Hello all you Lifers! Join Juliet and Ed as they count down the UK Top 40 Singles Chart as it was exactly thirty years ago, namely the chart from 21st January 1996. Where we left it last week, Saint George Michael had ended Michael Jackson's baffling six-week reign at Number One with a beautiful song called 'Jesus To A Child'.  This week, however, there are new entries from Ace Of Base, Chemical Brothers, 3T, Goldbug, Meat Loaf, Shed Seven and Skunk Anansie, all aiming for the top spot. Oh, and a certain song from a Levi's ad...

    I'm Not That Fussed About Her Singing - 14th January 1996 (Ep22)

    To quote a historical figure, who will rid us of this turbulent pop singer? Michael Jackson has been top of the pops for six looong weeks by this point in 1996, but there are 15 new entries from the likes of Cast, Leftfield, Lush, George Michael, Cher, Coolio (yes, him again) and Bucketheads all vying for the top spot! Join Juliet and Ed as they count down the entire UK Top 40 Singles Chart as it was announced on 14th January 1996!
