For the first time this series, Matty and Craig are discussing a song that hasn't (yet) been featured on the site. Gotta Tell You is the debut single from Irish pop sensation Samantha Mumba...and it's a good one!

We look at the song, its success in the UK and America, plus Matty decides it wouldn't be right if he didn't tell Craig this tonight by giving a wildly long-winded description of the music video.

It's Morphin' Time! This week, Matty and Craig are teleporting back to the mid-'90s when Zordon recruited a team of teenagers with attitude to battle the evil space witch, Rita Repulsa.

Mighty Morphin Power Rangers was everywhere, and never one to miss out on a merchandising opportunity, Simon Cowell concocted the official tie-in single. This morphinominal episode was every bit as chaotic to record as it is to listen to. Aye-yi-yi-yi-yi!

Matty and Craig are getting all tangled up this week as they talk about the 'Sexy! No No No...', the lead single from Girls Aloud's fourth studio album.

There's no disagreement that this is another slice of quality left-field pop music. But was it a bit too avant-garde to capitalise on the success of the group's first greatest hits album or was that the plan all along?

Things get a bit more serious this week as Matty and Craig take a look back at Hear'Say's fourth (and final) single: Lovin' Is Easy.

Released at a time when it seemed almost everyone wanted to see the group fail, there is a lot to unpack here as the original Popstars implode...with an unnecessary dance break.

In this episode, Matty and Craig are enthralled by one of Westlife's best songs (it's not even up for debate), which wasn't even *technically* a single in the UK: When You're Looking Like That.

There's a questionable attempt to recreate the keyboard riffs from the track, bemusement at the use of the lyric "Bambi eyes" and a disconcerting amount of winking in the music video.

In this week's episode, Matty and Craig are shooting from the hip. But can Craig convince Matty that I Won't Change You – a song Sophie Ellis-Bextor herself has all but disowned – really isn't that bad?

In this episode, Matty and Craig don't know how to live without your love...so take a look at Britney Spears' second UK #1 single: Born To Make You Happy instead.

There's plenty to discuss, including questionable lyrics, an almost entirely abandoned video concept, a bonus remix and – of course – plenty of unnecessary choreography.

In this week's episode, Matty and Craig don't care who you are or where you're from as they discuss a Backstreet Boys classic. Craig reveals what happened when he met the group and saw them perform As Long As You Love Me live, while, Matty is once again perplexed at why a mid-tempo pop song needs a fully choreographed dance routine.

This week, Matty and Craig delve into Charlotte Church's pop debut single, Crazy Chick. There isn't much agreement on this one, so expect tissues and issues aplenty.

In this week's episode, Matty and Craig talk Aqua's third – and final – #1 single in the UK: Turn Back Time. Craig shares his confusion after watching Sliding Doors and finding it's not like the music video at all, while Matty discusses a real-life experience of the movie plot when a woman's suitcase gets stuck in the doors of the tube.
