UK singles chart
 
Just checking out the BBC Radio 1 singles chart (as I often do on a Sunday evening). Although being rather disturbed that Waving the Flag is #3, I was pleased to see that Three Lions, World in Motion and Vindaloo are all back in the charts - as well as Dizzee at #1. As for El Tel and 'If I can Dream' - what more can you say?

Not a fan of the Rascal I take it? Don't worry Oink will be along soon, he's a young, with-it sort of guy.

I have always hated that term. I prefer experienced., well tried and tested.

So with the average life expectancy in Canada and the UK in the late 70's (at a guess without researching), that makes me ~ middle aged :eek:

I dunno, music today, it's just a bunch of noise isn't it. Nothing with a good beat to it. Kids of today etc.
