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.

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.

In this week's episode, Matty and Craig are feeling blue…a Deeper Shade Of Blue, in fact. The fourth (or fifth?) single from Steptacular marked a shift in image and sound for Steps. Important notes and embarrassing memories are shared about *that* music video.

Before the official first episode drops, we (Matty and Craig) recorded what was intended to be a brief introduction to us and the podcast. It ended up overrunning – a recurring theme – as we shared some of our earliest pop music memories.
