Also, still annoyed even now decades later at a team-mate in a quiz incorrectly buzzing in ahead of me on the reason Massive weren't billed as Massive Attack at this point in time. #totp

Ooh, I don't recall ever hearing this N-Joi choon, but it's right up my ravey alley. #totp

Ooh, not often you get a current top 40 hit on a Friday night. #totp

Actually, that was last week, bloody Friday night charts is unnatural.

A selection of #totp posts expressing a similar sentiment of "who da fuck".

Scott Mills has been wrenched away from his homework to present this episode. #totp

Also, that doesn't indeed impress me at all. *goes to kitchen*

Still no Danny Baker. Hopkirks (Deceased) might be racking up a record score tonight. #totp

Oddly, I don't mind Stereophonics at all. I should treat them with the disdain that I give Keane/Coldplay/Athlete etc etc, but somehow they win me over.

I do always think this song is going to be a Ronan Keating effort though when the intro kicks in. #totp
