Great suggestions Joe.

#2 Madge's Like A Prayer????

Merely a by the by... Vicki Peterson of The Bangles was apparently born on this day in 1958 they had a UK No.1 with Eternal Flame!

Or wuz it a burnin' bush?

Doris Day - 'Perhaps' this will be played!

I'll second Deniece Williams - 'Free'.

Yesterday, someone suggested Helen Shapiro's 'Walkin Back To Happiness' but I wouldn't want to claim credit for it tonight, though it would be good to hear.I sometimes get it mixed up with a reggae inspired thing called ' My Boy Lollipop' by Millie. Both were part of my childhood.Both were number 1's ( I think).

However, what I'd really like to hear is

Band Of Gold - Freda Payne

A belter of a record and packed with such a powerful message: if only we'd had the courage not to consummate our marriages things would have been so much simpler in the end. Still love it.Recorded for the 'Invectus'? label,which was a break away thing from something else - can't have been Motown? - though it sounds like a Motown record.

regardez youse

henri

Becha Blondie gets played

What odds PP?

DC

Is number 11 on "the billboard" acceptable? If not, why not?? Surely it's twice as good as a number 1?
Peggy Lee Is That All There Is?
Just about sums it up, with a lovely wee shrug.
The night the wee wimmin' of music are reduced to being represented by their number one hits..... come on. Too many great female musicians never got to the top spot. Same goes for plenty male musicians.
But, if that's all there is...............

Were Jay-Z and Alicia Keys at number 1?

#1

I'm with Scotch

Dawn Ralph ... lead singer in the St Winifred's School Choir, with ...

'There's No-One Quite Like Grandma'

Awsome ...

Renato ... with Renee, and

'Save Your Love'

Embrace the cheese ...

5 weeks at No1 for Anita Doth (with Ray Slijingaard) as 2 Unlimited, with ...

'No Limit'

no no no no ... no no no no ....

would settle for 'Professional Widow' (Armand's Star Trunk Funkin' Mix) ... Tori Amos

clear the chairs ...

This is more difficult than it looks due to the fact that many great female artists only had number ones in the US. I had to discount Cyndi Lauper, Gladys Knight and Stevie Nicks before deciding on this one....

All Around the World - Lisa Stansfield

Paul from Ayr

Spiller - 'Groovejet (If This Ain't Love)'

Vocals by Sophie Ellis-Bextor

Olive - 'You're Not Alone'

Lead singer Ruth-Ann Boyle

Tasmin Archer - 'Sleeping Satellite'

It's bound to get played eventually 鈽�

#10 Note to self: read the full requirement!

#15 Number 2, what a shame!!

#12 Great shout Henri. Invictus Records was set up by Holland, Dozier and Holland after they left Motown. It's said that they co-wrote 'Band of Gold' but under a pseudonym due to contractual problems with Motown.

Duffy - Mercy (Feb 2008)

The Corrs - Breathless (July 2000)

Maria McKee - Show Me Heaven (Sept 1990)

I Knew You Were Waiting for Me - Aretha Frankin & George Michael (Feb 1987)

So what theme have you brought into the dragons den today?
No 1 hits by female artists.

Let's look at the list... Mmhmm uhu mmm
Yup most are overplayed and those that aren't are because they don't deserve to be.
A few good singers but their best songs didn't make it to the top so for that reason I'm out!

Beats International (with Lindy Layton on vocals) - 'Dub Be Good To Me'.

Soul II Soul (feat Caron Wheeler) - 'Back To Life'

Mel + Kim - 'Respectable'

Estelle - 'American Boy'

:-)

There is a lack of harmony on the blog today! (Did you see what I did there?)

Tonight I want to hear the first UK #1 by a teenager. Despite what it says in the

Guinness Book Of Hit Singles

Me and Paolo and Glen all agree and I want Bryan to back us up on air!

Think of the publicity for the show!


Softly, Softly - Ruby Murray

:o)

re comments on repeat themmes by MMac + Gaie yesterday ... have to agree.

Let's out the old + bring in the new (ideas) for 2011. Given the well documented wisdom, and repartee of the vast majority of the GIO listening public, this should be a breeze.

Bloggers ... set the ball rolling with some fresh suggestions please.

GIO Prod team ... please review past themes to avoid (even tenuous)duplication.

What happened to all of the good suggestions we were told had flooded in during the A to Z run last year? Haven't seen much evidence since.

Dictionary def of 'Fresh' ... "new, unused"
or also "cheeky" ... which I hope I have deemed to be not ...

Hilda Woodward was the main gal in the second biggest selling single of 1972.

Mouldy Old Dough - Lieutenant Pigeon


:)

#9 ... where's the Moderator of the C of S when u need him/her?

#34 ... another seemingly impossible mission, fraught with ...

#33 - Mean Dartin - We've had the falling in love songs and we've had the break up songs. How about the reconciliation songs?

Examples

Pretty Woman - Roy Orbison

I Put My Ring Back On - Mary Chapin Carpenter

#38 - Oops! - Forgot the

KONGOLO from SYNCHRONISED SWIMMERS by HAFD脥S HULD 脼RASTARD脫TTIR
SYNCHRONISED SWIMMERS from SYNCHRONISED SWIMMERS by HAFD脥S HULD 脼RASTARD脫TTIR

Both No 1 hits in Iceland.

GIO 鈥� open your eyes and widen your horizons!

Fresh suggestions:

Ting Tings - 'That's Not My Name'
Tatu - 'All The Things She Said'
Evanescence - 'Bring Me To Life'

Kate Bush
Heidi Berry
Jerry Burns

But above them all is big Ella (Fitzgerald)

J.O'B.

#37 repetition, regurgitation, recurrence and redundancy. Where was Capt Ramius and his database when he was needed?

First task was to infiltrate Pacific Quay and divert BB and Miss B from their food container-strewn desks....

#22 agree with you once again Paul.

But how about Connie Francis "Stupid Cupid" if not played recently on other themes.

#41

All I know about Iceland is that they eat rotten fish, so I won't be kissing Bj枚rk.

#44

I am unfamiliar with Heidi Berry - is it some kind of parlour game?

#45

If GIO were a film, this would be where we came in. Is it worth sitting through it again?

#38 Good start Senga ... pretty sure that's fresh :)

never an easy task, due to their uncanny propensity to talk for hours about the infectious attraction of (mainly) liquidised vegetables. So then, how to distract them back to their day job, i.e. concentrating on playing fresh tracks from fresh bands based on fresh themes? How indeed ........?

It was imperative the Holy Grail could be found and fast. Bursting with enough themes for three years, it has not been seen since the fade out of the last z song.....

Despite his appalling haircut, only one man could be trusted with a secret of this magnitude - Victor "Oliver Hardy" Galloway.

Galloway sauntered into the studio and looked around at the mess. "See you?" his bear-like growl reverberated around the reverberating machines, "See you? You need telt............"

Bryan gasped

Of course the late Hilda's tinkling of the ivories can also be heard on Springsteen's "Aint Good Enough For You" which is on the radio a lot at the moment. Hilda being a session musician on the Darkness on the Edge of Town recordings.

Babs gasped also ... as she had completed her second marathon (bar) of the show.

"Fair cop" they both replied, and returned to a plateful of alfabetty spagetty ...

#54 And still the only mother and son act to top the chart. (sharp intake of breath as I await another potential spanking from Senga).


Anyway there I am still listening even though the themes not for me. Cos after all tomorrow is another day......

You overlook the Jesus and Mary Chain.

#54 wish I had known that great bit of Bruce trivia......

There was a guy on Mastermind answering Bruce questions last week. There was no beginning to his knowledge.

He got a lot wrong that were very easy....

Well there you go Norrie....

Still, its "Bowie Maclean", not "Norrie Springsteen" now isn't it?

#46 Thanks Norma, enjoy.....
