Bye fer now! #totp
Bye fer now! #totp
Straight to lift muzac. #totp
Lots a wailing going on. #totp
Balls. Small Shiny Balls. #totp
This is not enough Texas. FFS.
#TOTP
Twelfth, 38 points. Not bad. #totp
I don't know what she's talking about. #totp
Hmm this scheduling is annoying.
An hour of 1999 Top of the Pops at 7pm.
Then two hours of watching men playing with their balls before #TOTP resumes for '86 and '97 at 10pm.
Not sure how much of that I'll be watching but I'll aim to give some of it a go.
She sounds a _lot_ like Heather Small... #totp
Her _head_ is a mirrorball! Get it?! Amazing. #totp
Yay, unnecessary cover klaxon! 🚨
#TOTP
Apparently Mansun split up in the process of recording their fourth album. #totp
The guys sitting on the sofa have mirror balls too. You can tell my how they are sitting. #totp
Is this song about Peter Powell? 😬
#TOTP
Next: Beach Boys with "Good Vibrations" #TOTP
That mic's NOT not even plugged in! 😮
#TOTP
#totp Actually .. Shania, I think you'll find a rocket scientist is exactly the kind of person who can keep you warm in the middle of the night. Very very warm.
Next: Candi Staton with "Young Hearts Run Free" #TOTP
#totp Is there a name for that annoying tuft of top of head fluff?
I only know Yazz for The Only Way Is Up, hadn't realised she did Sade-like romantic pop jazz.
#TOTP
#totp Yeaaay! Travis!!
#totp is there a name for that annoying tuft of fun fluff?
#totp A genuine Glaswegian - Charlene Spiteri. Love a bit of Texas. This Texas, I mean.
Next: Champs Boys Orchestra with "Tubular Bells" #TOTP
#totp You can tell how long ago it was - Man U were champions.
#totp Been a blast. Thank you all! 👋🏻👍🏻
#totp Jason's got a semi.
Acoustic
That Boyzone cover offends me, so I'm watching #TOTP
#totp He's plugged his guitar in now. Thank heavens.
Next: Billy Ocean with "L.O.D. (Love On Delivery)" #TOTP
#totp Jason Swettyman.
#totp Aaah, Madge!! Loving this.
#totp Well this is pretty boring. Did Mssrs Sick Nosepin and Wateringcan have anything to do with it?
#totp I love it when the countdown reader tries to make a little funny sentence out of the title. Always dreadful.
Next: The Real Thing with "You To Me Are Everything" #TOTP
#totp Loving the minimalist drum kit.
#totp When he said he "loved you all the wrong ways", what exactly did he mean? 🤔
#totp Martha Ladly, off of Martha and the Muffins, on keyboards.
#totp presumably that's a bass Banjo?
New episode: 8th July 1976 presented by Tony Blackburn.
#TOTP
#totp he looks about 12.
What. The. Shite.
#TOTP
#totp Original Bananarama. Loved this.
#totp Sweet like (95%) chocolate boy.
#totp He's so tiny! They've put him on a platform and he's still shorter than the rest of the band. Now I understand the hats!!
Next: Elton John & Kiki Dee with "Don't Go Breaking My Heart" #TOTP
#totp He's definitely singing "Humping". #lipreading
I seem to remember all the words to that S Club 7 song.
#TOTP
#totp I'm getting Robin of Sherwood flashbacks!! Herne is coming through the mists.
Uncanny valley it's not. #totp
Next: Sutherland Brothers & Quiver with "When The Train Comes In" #TOTP
Stop doing that on my Rega Planar 2, you dirty bastard! #totp
They've set his mic low so he can stand like tiger ready to pounce. #totp
I saw Garbage in the US supporting Smashing Pumpkins. There was a lot of fuzz that night, I can tell you! #totp
Next: The Sensational Alex Harvey Band with "The Boston Tea Party" (yes, again) #TOTP
This is the definition of an unnecessary cover, surely.
Only seems like a few weeks ago we had Johnnie & Denise.
I guess they're relying on the Boyzone fans to raise money for Comic Relief.
But can't we just edit in Billy Ocean now? #TOTP
Next: Dorothy Moore with "Misty Blue" (yes, again)
Next next: 5000 Volts with "Dr Kiss Kiss"
Next next next: The Real Thing with "You To Me Are Everything" (yes, again)
And finally: War with "Me and Baby Brother"
#TOTP
Over & out
This is rubbish. #totp
Well I just turned on #totp, and I'm just a little confused about which decade we are doing.
Less than more than this #totp
Stop means stop, I already said the safe word. #totp
Anyone who wears their guitar that low is overcompensating. #totp
I love Sebadoh, but I kind of need to get a skateboard out. And that would be a bad idea. Knees much more fragile these days. #totp
It's the legend slot. #totp
Yass! Love that hair. #totp
Could have had Texas. Sigh. #totp
Turns out they can't boogie. #totp
Play Nenah Cherry you cowards! #totp
Rick "the Rhino (Hair)" Astley #totp
Who the f**k are these, please? #totp Than you.
Keeping an eye on Powell's hands. #totp
My daughter wonders if they ever did a #totp where it was just Legs & Co, one banger after another. 🤔
Linda doesn't want to see you again, Hugh. #totp
Do you think Rick Astley was back stage watching like a hawk?? #totp
Here's a band that genuinely would be scary to meet in a dark alley. #totp Not the Stranglers, the Brotherhood of Man.
I thinking she may have drained and disposed of the plastic population. #totp
I think they might have run out of rehearsal time and gone "that'll do" #totp
"I wish he hadn't turned into such an arse"... Overheard in my living room. #totp
The gatefold ELO "out of the blue" LP was a certain young boy's pride and joy. #totp
I can't take another dive into the 70s. Sorry to bail early. See yah Totpies! You've been fabulous. #totp
Hey yes!! #totp
Oo ooo oo ooooo! #totp
Yes!!! Loved this tune. #totp
Always loved those boots!! #totp
Well helloooow Miss Harry. #totp
I think Tony just rolled a 20. #totp
What the screaming balls is this??! #totp
Who knew Claudia could sing like this? #totp
Games without frontiers. Very Olympics. #totp
It looks like a D&D campaign in here. #totp
He keeps claiming we know his name. But I don't. #totp
My teacher wife says "it's just like my school!" 😯 #totp
Going to all those lengths, then not singing live. Why?? #totp
I'm watching the men's ski half pipe, and listening/watching #totp, imagining that the athletes are listening to this music in their earbuds as they do a 16 at 5m above the lip.
"Let me hear you make decisions without your television/ai bot" #totp
