Gina G – Ooh Aah...Just A Little Bit

In this episode of Can't Stop The Pop, we commemorate (or should that be commiserate) 30 years since the UK entered 'Ooh Aah…Just A Little Bit' into the Eurovision Song Contest 1996 and finished in…eighth place!? Matty and Craig discuss how Gina G's debut single tore through the UK chart for months prior to Eurovision, then became an international hit and even reached the top 20 of the US Billboard Hot 100, earning a Grammy nomination in the process. Yes, you read that correctly. But what happened at Eurovision? We speculate on possible reasons why the track didn't sweep to victory – or indeed even come close – but how impactful it was on the contest in the following years, nonetheless. As well as talking about the rather basic music video and those all-important chart stats, Matty shares a surprising fact about 'Ooh Aah…Just A Little Bit' and Top Of The Pops, while Craig explains the legal drama that stemmed from the song and left Gina G stuck in a bad record deal.   To read about 'Ooh Aah…Just A Little Bit' on Can't Stop The Pop: https://www.cantstopthepop.com/2020/03/23/gina-g-ooh-aah-just-a-little-bit/ If you like what we do, please leave us a review wherever you listen to your podcasts.
