    As well as exploring the stories behind this Top 10 from 2005, Andy and James find themselves discussing when vocalists are confused with the collective, who sings about being 'the best' the most and what is the ideal soundtrack for a heavy night out at Laser Tag.

    For Your Eyes Only, Who's Crying Now, Stop Draggin' My Heart Around, Arthur's Theme, Endless Love


    Yee-hah! It's the pinnacle of this American Top 10, randomly selected to celebrate Thanksgiving and Andy and James explore 'somebody done somebody wrong' songs, holding patterns in aerospace, not allowing women in the band and, because it's an American Top 10, spray cheese.

    Hold On Tight, Urgent, Private Eyes, Start Me Up, Step By Step


    Yippee Ki-Yay! This week James and Andy discuss an American Billboard Top 10 (albeit still randomly generated and selected) to ostensibly celebrate Thanksgiving. They explore the stories, statistics and stuff and nonsense behind the songs and, fittingly, they also speculate on T-bones, hand claps, 3-step programmes and bloody Foreigner... and there's a new game called "Yacht or Not?"

    True Love Ways, A World Of Our Own, Here Comes The Night, King Of The Road, Ticket To Ride


    It's the top half of this Top 10 and whilst separating the wholesome wheat from the cheap chaff of the stories behind these brilliant songs, Andy and James discuss duetting with the dead, songs to listen to when locked in your house and statues erected in the honour of hoboes.
