Pop, Collaborate & Listen

Another very very big album from 1995 to talk about here - one that was massive in the Britpop boom but also crossed over into the mainstream in the UK at least. Pulp's Different Class' has their biggest singles on it but is also full of songs about dead end lives and seedy smut so there's something for everyone in here.

And as well as chatting about Pulp we discuss the likes of Cypress Hill, Sunny Day Real Estate and Tricky. And East 17 obviously.

Well well well, Mr Hucknall, we meet again. Simply Red's 1995 album 'Life' was a big seller and had a massive number one single on it but kind of feels like it doesn't get remembered much when people look back. We certainly didn't know anything much about it going into this episode and to be honest we kind of wish it had stayed that way.

But we do have probably the biggest albums and singles sections that we've ever done, loads of bands that we get to talk about like Smashing Pumpkins, Incubus, Anthrax and obviously Cliff Richard.

Plus we get to add a song to our "much-loved" Give Me Some Reggae! playlist where we add terrible reggae songs from albums we're covering that are in no way reggae albums which is always the sign of a good episode.

Well now, here's one of the biggest albums we've had to look at to date - an absolute monster that came out in October 1995 and just changed everything it seemed. Oasis mania took over the UK and a lot of the rest of the world as well. And if you're assuming that we might give this one a kicking then prepare to be disappointed!

We do also talk about things like Mr Bungle, Earthling and obviously PJ & Duncan.

Another Mariah Carey episode? In this economy? Well ok then, if we simply must. This time we're listening to her 1995 album 'Daydream' which was another massive seller, boosted by singles such as Fantasy, One Sweet Day and Always Be My Baby. It may have only been number one in the UK charts for one week but in the states this was another total monster for Mariah, as we discuss.

We also have the chance to natter about the likes of Cypress Hill, Deftones and DJ Food so that's always fun.

Strap in for this one! If you're a Blur fan, you might want to just move onto another episode but if you're a fan of Dave being furious then this is going to be a treat. We're listening to The Great Escape and while Krister doesn't mind a bit of Blur from time to time, Dave is very firmly not a fan. A fact that is very clear from the outset.

But we also get to discuss the Red Hot Chili Peppers, Flaming Lips and the Outhere Brothers and some of their less radio-friendly songs.
