Levellers at number one..Is this 1992? (jk)

[jio]

I was 16 in 1992 so that could be an explanation (although Levellers were not my thing back then... I was into Snap and Cece Peniston and Dr Alban and Rozalla and stuff)

Good flashback with Ocean Colour Scene. I think it's "Blues Pills" at #2

[heppolo]

Good entries by Django Django and Of Monsters and Men. New Order's song is a bit disappointing in my opinion.

[jio]

Oh I think it's good... perhaps it is way more pop than what one would have expected from a veteran act but I dig it. It would have easily been #1 most weeks but not in the week when a song such as "Spirals" is out...
