Join Juliet and Ed in their musical time machine as they travel back thirty years exactly to run down the UK Top 40 Singles Chart as it was announced on 9th June 1996!

Fugees had just dislodged 'Three Lions' where we left it last week, but there are 16 new entries vying for the number one spot this time out, including new singles from Ocean Colour Scene, D'Angelo, Livin' Joy, Happy Clappers, the Eurovision winner from Eimear Quinn and TWO Scottish football songs to tie in with Euro 96 from Rod Stewart and Primal Scream. Plus, a new entry that is basically Ed's new Favourite Song Ever (TM).
