Where did you come from, where did you go?

Still coming down to earth after laughing our tits off last night at the spectacuar panto Robin Hood starring Julian Clary and Jane McDonald at the London Palladium (more on that later, no doubt), the bitter cold air is still hanging over our poor, bedraggled garden and we've just been lolling-about in the house with the heating on.

To cheer ourselves up as we await the (forecast) thaw this week, let's take a little "mini-timeslip" moment, shall we?

This week thirty years ago in 1995, the Top 10 in our charts still had some Xmas "hangovers" from the likes of Boyzone and East 17, the Human League was having a little comeback, there were some soon-to-be-classic dance choons courtesy of N-Trance and Ini Kamoze, and also present and correct were Guns'n'Roses, Oasis and novelty kids' TV puppets Zig and Zag. However - thankfully keeping the godawful Slime Dion off the top, for the next few weeks at least - taking the #1 slot was this lot! Talk about "left-field"...

Try as we might to deny it, everyone still sings along to it!
