McFly vs Rachel Stevens & Sharon Osbourne vs Iron Maiden (27 Aug 2005)

It's nearly the end of summer, which means it's a perfect time for Jamiroquai to release their song about June, right? Wrong, as we find out in the latest episode of the podcast where every week we relive the 40 biggest selling songs from this week 20 years ago.While Jay Kay is seemingly busy having constant fights outside nightclubs, we also explore some other bad decisions the pop star of the 2000s are making. Like McFly nearly deciding they wanted to be taken seriously, Snoop Dogg deciding to break up with his wife only to get back with her almost instantly, and Iron Maiden deciding to bad mouth Ozzy Osbourne at his own festival.Elsewhere on the podcast, Pete Doherty returns with an anti-drug implant and a new song, Justin Hawkins messes about before the proper return of The Darkness, and I'm pleasantly surprised by a Super Furry Animals song.This episode features mentions of the following songs:Audio Bullys feat.
