Owing to a variety of reasons, some planned and some unplanned, there had not been a Britpop Revival Radio Show for a couple of months. So to make it up to people I decided to make this show a 'Hit' special.
Being a monthly live show on a local FM station, BRRS is usually more mainstream than Vapour Trails, our weekly, specialist show. However for this edition I decided that every song would be a Top 40 hit from a different artist. (Well, there was one song that only made it to 41 - got to break the rules somewhere!)
This is the playlist:
- Blur - Parklife
- Elastica - Waking Up
- The Bluetones - Slight Return
- Manic Street Preachers - La Tristesse Durera (Scream To A Sigh)
- The Chemical Brothers (ft Noel Gallagher) - Setting Sun
- Kula Shaker - Hey Dude
- Oasis - Supersonic
- 60 Ft. Dolls - Talk To Me
- Gay Dad - To Earth With Love
- Radiohead - Karma Police
- Gene - We Could Be Kings
- Supergrass - Pumping On Your Stereo
- The Candyskins - Monday Morning
- Cast - Alright
- Cataonia - Mulder and Scully
- The Boo Radleys - Wake Up Boo!
- The Seahorses - Love Me and Leave Me
- The Charlatans - Tellin' Stories
- Echobelly - Insomniac
- Dodgy - Staying Out For The Summer
- James - Runaground
- The Auteurs - Lenny Valentino
- Suede - Beautiful Ones
- The Supernaturals - Smile
- Sleeper - Nice Guy Eddie
- Ash - Burn Baby Burn
- Pulp - Common People
- Shed Seven - Getting Better
- The Verve - Sonnet
That is a lot of quality tunes!

What an awesome blog ! I just discovered britpop through the UK90Z blog and then found this site. Looks like I have a lot of happy listening ahead. Two big thumbs up my friend.

As a North American survivor of the grunge and grunge wannabees in the 90's, i grew up worshiping, and playing, and revelling in what is the 4 minute guitar pop mastery that was britpop. Its fantastic to see I can still find my musical zen on the radio...
Thank you, I will be listening!
