Evening all. And now on #TOTP, "Something good".

Jez Willis and Tim Garbutt were the Utah Saints. Here, they sample "Cloudbusting" by Dame Kate Bush, the first time she'd let anyone sample her vocals for a dance banger.

The original vid for "Cloudbusting" featured Donald Sutherland, who died yesterday.

After being rebuffed by his agent, Kate sealed the appearance after visiting Donald down in his hotel in London. Fitting the clip in between full feature films, the clip was filmed in two days.

Donald remembered, "She's wonderful, Kate Bush. Wonderful. I love that I did it."

"Damn, I wish I was your lover" - Sophie B Hawkins

Blimey, someone's horny! "Come inside my jungle book", a top-grade euphemism.

Sophie got her break after slipping a demo to Marc Cohn of "Walking in Memphis" fame. We can tell why she was signed - the song threatens to drop into AOR landfill, but those synth breaks and the sheer passion rescue it.

And Bob, don't bother, the flag on the mike stand is your clue.

This week's AI prompt: two men in white robes, sat over a chessboard, one holding a cuddly sheep, beneath gently strobing lights, as a noodling trip-house tune plays in the background.

"Blue room" from The Orb.

The original idea was to have a kickabout on screen, but producers nixed that coz cameras might get hit. By the end of the session, the crew were all "If you move from your seat, I will checkmate you."

@daweaver they let Rod Stewart have a kickabout, but not the Orb - shame
