Which Decade Is Tops For Pops?

By: Mike Atkinson
  • Summary

  • Each episode, we look at six hit singles that were in the same position in the UK Top 10 exactly ten years apart, from the 1960s through to the 2010s. We talk about them, you vote for them, and points are awarded to the decades which they represent. As the episodes roll on, the votes roll in, and the points stack up, which decade will ultimately emerge as Tops For Pops?

    Do you love the Meh Zone? Are you all about those tunes that are "OK, I guess"? Then you need to listen to the next episode of Which Decade Is Tops For Pops - because it's A-Meeeeeh-Zing!

    Nick Parkhouse says:

    This is not an episode where everything's a 5-star a la carte entree, or everything's absolutely terrible and I've vomited into the sink - this is an episode where a waiter serves you a plate full of cream crackers.

    If that's whetted your appetite, then you're in for tastebud-bursting treat!
