Fréquence : 1 épisode/42j. Total Éps: 16

What makes a number 1? That’s what we’re exploring on Dork’s new podcast Chart Attack, where we jump in our big pop time machine and revisit number ones from the turn of the millennium onwards. Exploring the highs and lows of the 21st century UK chart, we’ll be dissecting cultural milestones, iconic pop stars, telling classic pop stories, and taking a trip down memory lane ourselves. Most importantly, we’ll be asking the crucial pop question: is this a good song?

Xmas Special 2024: The Big 2024 Chart Review

Saison 1 · Épisode 14

mardi 31 décembre 2024 • Durée 01:21:52

2024 has been nothing short of a pop cultural earthquake, and Chart Attack's end-of-year special is here to measure the aftershocks. In a year where Charli XCX painted the charts green, Sabrina Carpenter became AAA-list, and even a few of the boys made some effort, we're diving deep into twelve months of chart action that rewrote the rulebook on what pop can be. From viral sensations that actually deserved the hype to surprise smashes that had us gleefully checking our calendars, it's been a year where the guard didn't just change - it staged a full-scale musical revolution. Join us as we celebrate the triumphs, dissect the flops, and raise a glass to the chart-toppers that made 2024 feel like the future of pop properly arrived.

As we’ve discovered, the chart would be nothing without a bit of a curveball, and for Chart Attack’s final bonus episode of 2023, that’s just what we’re giving to you.

Featuring the biggest pop stars, soundtrack surprises, exciting new artists and long-time-coming eventual chart toppers, it’s proof enough for us that the UK chart is still worth following.

Xmas Special 2023: Band Aid 20 - Do They Know It's Christmas?

Saison 1 · Épisode 11

mercredi 20 décembre 2023 • Durée 01:08:54

So this is Christmas, and what have you done? Well, we’ve brought back Chart Attack for a very special Christmas episode of course. With the Band Aid series due a revamp in 2024, we revisit the third version of ‘Do They Know It’s Christmas?’, released in 2004.

A middling time for the British music scene, ‘Do They Know It’s Christmas?’ (Band Aid 20’s Version) saw the track embrace bore-core, in a Chris Martin-led critics choice fest.

Our first Christmas special also sees us discuss an ideal Christmas Day, dream up our Band Aid 40 fantasy league, and in the absence of Gail Platt, Martyn watches an episode of cd:uk, you know, for a Christmas twist.

S01E10: Ed Sheeran - Shape Of You

Saison 1 · Épisode 10

mercredi 11 octobre 2023 • Durée 01:01:25

Episode 10 of Chart Attack sees us finally take on the monolithic giant of 21st-century pop that is Ed Sheeran and his enormous record-breaking number 1 ‘Shape Of You’.

We’ll explore just why this odd little extremely catchy pop song became the phenomenon that it was while asking the ultimate pop question: is Ed Sheeran unfairly maligned?

We also try to unpack the way this song and his enormous third album truly changed the way we would look at the charts forever and give an explainer of the extremely complex way the chart is now worked out.

Along the way we’ll say hello to Max Branning and Barry from Eastenders, commiserate the inauguration of Donald Trump and pay our final visit to the street where Kevin Webster has lost his stapler. All that and more on the SERIES FINALE!! of Chart Attack.

S01E09: 5 Seconds Of Summer - She Looks So Perfect

Saison 1 · Épisode 9

mercredi 4 octobre 2023 • Durée 54:38

In the penultimate episode of Chart Attack season 1, we’re taking it back to 2014 and discussing the explosive beginnings of 5 Seconds Of Summer. We look at their rapid rise as their debut single ‘She Looks So Perfect’ hit the top spot on release, almost unheard of for a rock single in the 2010s. But their popularity came with its pitfalls, and we explore the backlash that followed their success as the year went on.

Elsewhere, we delve into the world of science as we explore ‘the viability of arriving like a wrecking ball’ with Miley Cyrus, ask just what is a ‘conscious uncoupling’, and Gail Platt is having some trouble with the law. All that plus more pop nonsense than you can shake a stick at.

S01E08: Icona Pop - I Love It (Feat. Charli XCX)

Saison 1 · Épisode 8

mercredi 27 septembre 2023 • Durée 01:00:00

In this week’s episode of Chart Attack, we’re hurtling forward into the 2010s as we approach the final stretch of this season. Crashing in at number 1 in July 2013, Icona Pop’s Charli XCX featuring hit single ‘I Love It’ had conquered the globe before its official release finally took it to the top in the UK.

It may have been the pair’s only number 1 hit, but this hedonistic club banger dominated the airwaves - and the telly, and the adverts, and the festival stages - all summer, also marking the start of its writer’s complicated relationship with the mainstream. Elsewhere this week, we reminisce about the Tumblr years, discuss the end of pop’s kooky era, and celebrate Leanne Battersby’s birthday on the street.

S01E07: Beyoncé - Crazy In Love

Saison 1 · Épisode 7

mercredi 20 septembre 2023 • Durée 46:21

Chart Attack continues this week with Beyoncé’s iconic debut single ‘Crazy In Love’. In episode seven, we meet the superstar at a crucial turning point in her career, as she departs girl group Destiny’s Child and takes her first step to becoming the godlike figure she is today.

Our highest-scoring single yet, we explore the career of a true pop legend and the song that started it all. In 2003, Beyoncé was a very different artist, and as we go back in time again, we also talk Channel 4’s The Salon, Gareth Gates’ fling with Jordan, and doing poppers at T In The Park.

S01E06: Spiller - Groovejet (If This Ain't Love) (feat. Sophie Ellis-Bextor)

Saison 1 · Épisode 6

mercredi 13 septembre 2023 • Durée 47:30

This week on Chart Attack we continue the chart battle theme of last week’s Girls Aloud episode with a classic of the genre. A titanic war between an unheralded DJ and a super niche indie star against a pop giant. Yes, it’s Sophie Ellis Bextor vs Victoria Beckham and the story of how Spiller’s eternal summer anthem ‘Groovejet’ spoiled Posh Spice’s solo party.

Chart battles are never quite so straightforward, though. We’ll explore the circumstances around this surprise Number 1 and how Victoria and Dane Bowers’ actually-quite-good-y’know Number 2 is unfairly maligned. Elsewhere in summer 2000, we talk the launch of Big Brother, summer club classics, and it’s a bumper week for our Corrie queen Gail Platt.
