"You to me are everything" - The Real Thing

(takes out a mallet and reminds Sir Simon Bates of the rules of The Mystery Years.)

Top of the Pops re-runs will eat themselves!

It's a timeless classic, the remix isn't too obvious, and the group - one lead singer, the others in a line just behind - still has fun. They've changed in ten years, that's almost inevitable, but not in a bad way.

"You to me are everything" - The Real Thing

Opportunity knocks for these Liverpudlians, who make a very pleasant sound, beloved by great DJs and by Noel Edmonds.

Superficially innofensive and undemanding, the lyric rolls well with the tune, and there's a bit of melancholia about it. And, by goodness, it's a refreshing song to hear.

But it's not the best song on the show...
