| 99: Jessica Simpson - "A Public Affair" | 31 Jul 2024 | 01:23:26 | |
Grab those cowboy boots and pull on those sexy denim shorts because we are steppin' out for A Public Affair! Joel and David are heading back to 2005 and 2006 to revisit this iconic chapter in Jessica Simpson's career - and arguably, her best album to date! As the sun was setting on her high-profile marriage to Nick Lachey and the "Newlyweds" series; Our Jessica Ann is hitting a new stride! She bagged her first film role, playing the iconic Daisy Duke in "The Dukes of Hazzard" and released one of her highest-charting singles 'These Boots Were Made For Walking'. Little did we know then that the character would become the launch pad for so many commercial opportunities for savvy Jess, including her billion-dollar retail empire! "A Public Affair" was released the following year, with the title track grabbing headlines for all the best reasons. The music video and euphoric pop tune saw Jess step out for the ultimate girls night out with Christina Applegate, Christina Milian and Eva Longoria. Whether she was being real and vulnerable on 'I Belong To Me' or giving you an undeniable "slagbanger" in 'Fired Up', there's plenty to enjoy on this fun and varied album; which samples everything from Dead or Alive to Diana Ross and Fleetwood Mac! We're here for the full spectrum of it. *A Public Affair Ringtone Clip Credit: @RodKim on YouTube Follow Right Back At Ya! https://www.instagram.com/rightbackpod/ https://twitter.com/rightbackpod https://www.facebook.com/rightbackpod Follow Joel https://www.instagram.com/dr_joelb/ https://twitter.com/DR_JoelB Follow David https://www.instagram.com/lovelimmy/ https://twitter.com/lovelimmy Email us rightbackpod@gmail.com | |||
| 98: Pixie Lott on 15 Years of "Turn It Up" and returning to her roots with new album "Encino" | 27 Jun 2024 | 01:24:08 | |
This is one of the most special conversations we've ever had on the podcast. Joel and David are joined by chart-topping, BRIT-nominated pop singer songwriter Pixie Lott to celebrate 15 years since the release of her No.1-selling debut single, 'Mama Do (Uh Oh, Uh Oh)' and the massive debut album "Turn It Up", which sold over a million copies and spawned six Top 20 singles! But we're going even further back to Joel and Pixie's shared secondary school memories. From train journeys listening to Pixie's early demos with cheeky McDonald's, to her skipping class to sing for music mogul LA Reid and signing her first major label deal; we go back to her teens and talk about her early music influences. We look back on the whirlwind years of countless studio sessions with some of pop's biggest hitmakers, music video shoots, a Pixie Lott-branded plane, opening for The Saturdays and Rihanna before embarking on her own headline tour "The Crazycats Tour". She also chats about her collaborations with Selena Gomez and Stevie Wonder, and a lost Joe Jonas duet; and how she finally created the album she has always wanted to make, "Encino". Don't miss Pixie Lott Live at London's Hoxton Hall on 11 July - tickets now on sale. Her new single 'Somebody's Daughter' is out now, go pre-order her forthcoming album "Encino" - out on 27 September.

| 89: Sophie Ellis-Bextor - "Make A Scene" with 'Heartbreak (Make Me A Dancer)' and more | 17 Jan 2024 | 01:10:42 | |
"Face to face, it's Murder on The Dancefloor. Cut to the chase, just give us what we came for!" Pop fans, we hear you loud and clear. It's a new year and the dawn of the Sophiessance Age! Joel and David are jumping in that time machine with the dials set for 2009 to 2011 for Sophie Ellis-Bextor's "Make A Scene" era - her clubbiest body of work yet! This all-killer-no-filler fourth album marked the closing of Sophie's club disco chapter in the 2000s but she's not leaving the dancefloor without a bang! 'Heartbreak (Make Me A Dancer)' with Freemasons, 'Can't Fight This Feeling' with Junior Caldera, and 'Not Giving Up On Love' with Armin Van Buuren - these titan dance collaborations that are still beating strong in her discography were born from this time. Whether you're new to Sophie's work or a card-holding member of the 'Murder' cult; we all need to be bumping these tracks and getting them back up the charts. We got classy, Sophisticated offerings like 'Starlight' and 'Bittersweet' ("It's like a £20 bottle of wine!") to grittier indie club-friendly cuts like 'Under Your Touch', and retro Calvin Harris with 'Off & On'... it's time to get on the revolution!

| 86: "Reach for the Stars" with Special Guest & Author Michael Cragg | RBAY! Book Club | 07 Dec 2023 | 00:52:58 | |
Welcome to our first ever Right Back At Ya! Book Club episode. It's a new thing we're doing to cross into the world of literature, just like so many of our popstars-turned-authors. For our very first attempt at this spin-off series; we're speaking with respected pop music journalist and author Michael Cragg, who released his first book - the very 'right up our street' - "Reach for the Stars - 1996-2006: Fame, Fallout and Pop's Final Party", which is now available in paperback. Hello, Christmas stocking filler! This 'pop bible', as hailed by Joel, is a super fun look at the golden years of pop from Spice Girls through to the dawn of the reality show eras of Pop Idol, Popstars and The X Factor. Michael has literally spoken to so many legends in this book, including members of Spice Girls, 5ive, Steps, Girls Aloud, Sugababes, Blue, as well as hitmakers like Brian Higgins and Miranda Cooper of Xenomania, Richard X, MNEK, and industry legends like Peter Lorraine, Pete Waterman, Louis Walsh and... our very own Joel and David. Michael chats with our RBAY boys about his process in putting together this incredible pop oral history, and spotlights three songs by three artists he spoke with for the book. If you have any suggestions for a future Book Club episode; email, comment or DM us right away. The library is open!

| 85: Lost Girl Bands Vol. 1 - Mini Viva, Dolly Rockers and Girls Can't Catch | 24 Nov 2023 | 01:11:25 | |
This podcast truly loves a pop girl group - and it shows! For years we have talked about doing a special episode celebrating the 'lost' girl bands of the 2000s and now here we are. It felt absolutely right to kick things off with the three distinct British girl groups that were launched in 2009: Mini Viva, Dolly Rockers and Girls Can't Catch. While these groups sadly disbanded not long after their launch, they will always live on in our hearts. Together, Joel and David present you the girlies, getting into their singles and album sampler highlights, and more! Bring on the nostalgia! Mini Viva, the Xenomania pop duo of Britt and Frankee, released three singles 'Left My Heart in Tokyo', 'I Wish' and 'One Touch'. Dolly Rockers, who started their fledgling journey on The X Factor but returned stronger in a few years with the buzz-worthy track 'Je Suis Une Dolly' which led to a deal with Parlophone, culminating in their official debut single 'Gold Digger'. Fascination Records' Girls Can't Catch was positioned as the 'little sister' of label mate girl groups Girls Aloud and The Saturdays, but they ultimately left us wanting more after the release of their singles 'Keep Your Head Up' and 'Echo'. If you are loving what we're doing, let us know in the comments. Who would you like to see in a 'Lost Girl Bands Vol.2'?

| 84: Madonna - "Music" | 08 Nov 2023 | 01:20:19 | |
Do you like to Boogie Woogie? Because your Right Back At Ya! boys are covering the Queen of Pop for the first time, so grab that pink cowboy hat and tiara - and let's get to it! With The Celebration Tour going full throttle now (and yes we will give our thoughts on it!), it feels like the perfect moment to dive into Madonna's 2000 album "Music". Joel and David dive into this monumental album, including the singles and music videos, and relive Madonna's Brixton Academy gig which was impressively instantly live streamed to a global audience on the world wide web! *insert dial-up modem tone* The "Music" era was a massive turning point for her Madgesty both creatively and personally. It's a new millennium, new experimental body of work with a new collaborator (Mirwais) and, it also marks Madonna's first album made exclusively in Europe. The avant-garde French house and electronica influences mixed with warm acoustic guitars, acid techno and folk influences brought us big commercial hits like 'Music', 'Don't Tell Me' and 'What It Feels Like For A Girl'; but also wild dance tracks like 'Impressive Instant' and 'Runaway Lover'. Despite the European influences, visually she gave us one of her most memorable signature looks with the camp, country Western aesthetic. There is so much to unpack together!

Widely recognised as one of Girls Aloud's most critically acclaimed albums, "Tangled Up" certainly holds a special place in the hearts of fans, thanks to hits like 'Sexy... No No No!', 'Call The Shots' and 'Can't Speak French'. 2007 saw Girls Aloud reach new heights artistically but also personally.

| 82: Victoria Beckham: Coming to America | 13 Sep 2023 | 01:05:44 | |
Hang on to your knickers, girls! Because things are about to get MAJOR. For a 2000s podcast literally named after a Spice Girls album track, Joel and David will certainly be giving you everything for this very special episode celebrating VB's one-off reality show "Victoria Beckham: Coming to America"! 2007 was not just major for "The Pob" (Posh Bob) and the Spice Girls reunion; but for reality TV in popular culture. Before "Keeping Up With The Kardashians" debuted that year, there was this hilarious NBC special following global pop superstar and fashionista Victoria Beckham as she moves from Madrid to Los Angeles to prepare for "David and the boys" arrival. Hijinx ensues from paparazzi car chases to blow up dolls, and posing the house down at the DMV.

| 79: Nelly Furtado - "Loose" | 07 Jul 2023 | 01:13:23 | |
Can we truly call ourselves 2000s pop explorers if we don't scale one of the biggest albums of the decade: Nelly Furtado's "Loose"? This monumental album was the world's best selling album by a female artist in 2006 and third overall best-seller that year. It goes on to rack up over 12 million sales, spawning 8 hit singles including the classic 2000s floor-fillers 'Promiscuous' feat. Timbaland, 'Maneater' and 'Say It Right', which have been reincarnated and introduced to a new generation through TikTok!

| 60: Paris Hilton and Lindsay Lohan | 25 Apr 2022 | 01:30:42 | |
Get ready to Turn It Up because the Rumors are true - we are celebrating two pop culture icons of the 2000s: Paris Hilton and Lindsay Lohan! Join Joel and David for a bubbly, nostalgic dive into the debut album eras of "Paris" and "Speak".
As one of the first new mega celebrities of the new century, socialite turned reality TV pioneer, entrepreneur, DJ, actress and popstar; Paris Hilton was inescapable in the 2000s. At the height of her fame, she did what any decent celebrity would do and released a pop album crafted by some of the industry's biggest hitmakers including Scott Storch (Beyoncé, Christina Aguilera) to JR Rotem (Rihanna). The "Paris" album remains a pristine party record, glistening with hip-hop infused club bangers like 'Turn It Up' and the breezy reggae bop 'Stars Are Blind' as well as spiky pop-rock moments like 'Nothing in This World' and 'Screwed' (insert Joel voice: "Justice for Haylie Duff!"). Disney and "Mean Girls" star Lindsay Lohan was always destined to release music alongside her blossoming film career. Her huge mainstream debut album "Speak" arrived in the year she turned 18 after a steady tease of her music through soundtracks for "Freaky Friday", "Confessions of a Teenage Drama Queen" and "The Princess Diaries 2: Royal Engagement". Hemmed by Kara Dioguardi (songwriting queen for pop-rock stars of this time) and John Shanks (Ashlee Simpson), this guitar-pop driven coming-of-age album is packed full of emotions. Flip a bird at the paparazzi with 'Rumors', scream at your ex with 'Over', and get what you want with corkers like 'Speak' and 'First'!

| 57: Aussie Special Part 2: Sister2Sister, Leah Haywood and Joanne | 17 Mar 2022 | 00:58:00 | |
Following the fabulous introduction into 2000s Aussie pop divas Vanessa Amorosi and Nikki Webster's careers, this second part of our special celebrates ARIA Award-winning duo Sister2Sister, the talented singer-songwriter Leah Haywood, and vocal powerhouse Joanne. Sister2Sister, made up of sisters Christine and Sharon Muscat, made a splash in Australia and the UK with their hits 'Sister' and 'What's A Girl To Do' in the early 2000s. They weren't just a pair of incredible vocalists but also super engaging live performers who can slay a Y2K popstar choreography! The sisters' success saw them score an ARIA Award and support Britney Spears and 5ive on tour outside Australia, and feature on the Bring It On soundtrack. In the past decade or so, Aussie hit songwriter and producer Leah Haywood has been working behind the scenes in LA on some of our fave bops via Selena Gomez, BLACKPINK, Justin Bieber, Demi Lovato and more but we're taking it all the way back to her 2000s popstar debut "Leah", which spawned inescapable bops like 'We Think It's Love', 'Takin' Back What's Mine' and 'Summer of Love'. With Leah now thankfully back in the spotlight as an artist after two decades, releasing top-tier material under the pseudonym Haywood, it feels right to go back to her 2000s efforts and celebrate her journey. The final artist on our two-part 2000s Aussie Pop special is Joanne, a real vocal powerhouse and long-lost Young Diva member, in our humble opinion. Big soul diva vocals with camp, Y2K disco-pop production and dance bangers - everything about Joanne's discography is a maximalist 'girls night out' experience packed with sass and handbags-on-the-floor moments, from the signature late 90s banger 'Jackie' through to 'So Damn Fine', 'I Don't Know' and 'Busted'.

| 56: Aussie Special Part 1: Vanessa Amorosi and Nikki Webster | 14 Mar 2022 | 01:17:40 | |
Your favourite pop explorers Joel and David are heading Down Under for this special two-part episode celebrating some unforgettable Australian pop icons from the late 90s and early 2000s. This episode is all about the vocal powerhouse diva Vanessa Amorossi and teen-pop sensation Nikki Webster. Both were absolutely essential to Australian popular culture of the decade and their vibrant pop bops are still adored by millions of millennials to this very day. Best known for her international dance hit 'Absolutely Everybody', Vanessa Amorosi is unquestionably one of Australia's greatest vocalists of her generation. Joel and David get into her multi platinum-selling debut album "The Power", which also includes hits like 'Shine', 'The Power' and 'Every Time I Close My Eyes'. They also look into Vanessa's more European-facing highlights like 'One Thing Leads to Another' and the French "Ab Fab" theme 'Champagne, Champagne', before toasting to her monumental comeback in 2008 with 'Perfect' and 2009's banger 'This Is Who I Am'. By his own admission, Nikki Webster has the pop career Joel has always wanted. Straight after her unforgettable role in the 2000 Sydney Olympics Opening and Closing ceremonies, 13-year old Nikki signed a major label deal and turned her newfound profile into a successful pop career that also spawned a clothing line and her own businesses. The savvy dancer and musical theatre star will forever be immortalised for her breakthrough smash 'Strawberry Kisses' but Joel and David are not stopping there. Cue gems like 'Depend on Me', 'The Best Days', 'Something More Beautiful' and the Delta Goodrem-penned 'Let's Dance'! If you're not familiar with these Aussie ladies of pop, we hope you enjoy this introduction and if you do, we hope this nostalgic trip brings you joy. Stay tuned for Part 2 dropping in a few days, where we get into Sister 2 Sister, Leah Haywood and Joanne!

| 54: Girls Aloud Part 1 - "Popstars: The Rivals" and "Sound of The Underground" | 14 Feb 2022 | 01:20:46 | |
IT'S ABOUT TIME! Joel and David are finally jumping into one of the UK's greatest pop groups ever. This year marks 20 years of Girls Aloud and your 2000s pop explorers are going all the way back to the beginning with "Popstars: The Rivals", the ITV show that catapulted Cheryl, Nadine, Nicola, Kimberley and Sarah into the national spotlight. From the eternally fresh sonics of 'Sound of The Underground', their debut single, it was clear that Girls Aloud were destined for greatness. Working with Xenomania, the girls went on to reshape the British pop landscape with their rule-breaking style - kicking off this era with classics like 'No Good Advice', 'Life Got Cold' and the career-changing hit 'Jump'. Your Right Back At Ya! boys also pick their faves from Girls Aloud's debut album, which featured contributions from Swedish pop producers and some surprising names in the writing credits! This will be the first of many episodes we'll be doing to celebrate Girls Aloud's incredible impact and career. So, put on your 'Buy Girls, Bye Boys' T-shirts and let's get on with the show! By the way, keep an eye on our Spotify account for the long-awaited JB1 and DL1 concept albums.

| 53: Steps Part 2 - "Buzz", "Gold: Greatest Hits" and "The Last Dance" | 09 Jan 2022 | 01:19:57 | |
What better way to kick off 2022 and the '25 Years of Steps' celebration than a new episode deep-diving into this legendary British pop group's discography? Pop fans, we know you've been waiting for this one!
Join our 2000s pop defenders Joel and David as they unpack Steps' third studio album "Buzz", which saw the group level-up their sound and image for a new millennium. After achieving global success with their signature effervescent 90s ABBA-style bangers, Steps were ready to spread their wings and take creative control. Working with new producers and leaning into the teen-pop boom, they hit home run with 'Stomp' (their second UK No.1 single) and the absolute classic 'It's The Way You Make Me Feel'. 2001's "Gold: Greatest Hits" - featuring the smash cover of 'Chain Reaction' - turned out to be one giant glittery Trojan Horse. After the accompanying tour, Steps made the shock announcement on Boxing Day that they were splitting up. It may have marked the end of an era for one of Britain's most successful pop groups of the 90s/2000s but who could have imagined that 25 years later we'd be here enjoying new music and dazzling concerts by Lee, Claire, Faye, Lisa and H. So no tears at The Last Dance, please! Let's celebrate this golden era of our pop faves and look forward to what the future holds for Steps.

| 52: Christina Aguilera Part 1 - Debut album, 'Reflection' to 'Lady Marmalade' | 15 Dec 2021 | 01:28:20 | |
Fighters, rise up because we are diving into Christina Aguilera's epic debut album era. Off the back of her hugely-deserved 2021 People's Choice Music Icon Award, it's about time this 2000s pop music podcast dived into Xtina's catalogue. In this first part of our Christina Aguilera journey, Joel and David celebrate the smash debut album "Christina Aguilera", which spawned the massive hits 'Genie In A Bottle', 'Come On Over Baby (All I Want Is You)', 'What A Girl Wants' and 'I Turn To You'. We trace one of our generation's most influential vocalist's journey from the Mickey Mouse Club (with Britney Spears and Justin Timberlake) through to 'Reflection', on Disney's Mulan soundtrack, all the way up to 2001's Grammy-winning global smash 'Lady Marmalade' with fellow divas P!nk, Lil Kim and Mya. Of course, your Right Back At Ya! boys had to also touch on Christina's hugely successful Spanish language album "Mi Reflejo", her Holiday album "My Kind of Christmas", and the cheekily released album of demos from her teens "Just Be Free". We're here to give whatever pop fans want, whatever pop fans need. *** Note: Since recording and completing the episode, The Clapham Grand event the Right Back At Ya! boys were due to appear at on 17 December 2021 has been cancelled. Big love to everyone at The Clapham Grand team, stay safe, and we look forward to partying with everyone soon.

| 51: Sugababes Part 4 - "Sweet 7" to 'Freedom' | 2000s Pop Music Podcast | 24 Nov 2021 | 01:32:36 | |
Babedom, you wanna Get Sexy with your temporary tattoos, don't you? We couldn't possibly leave you hanging without a "Sweet 7" appreciation episode. Joel and David are here to celebrate this glossy and often-sidelined last Sugababes album (to date) and the final single from Amelle, Heidi and Jade: 'Freedom'.
Your favourite 2000s pop defenders pick things up in the rollercoaster year that was 2009 when Keisha Buchanan, Heidi Range and Amelle Berrabah jump head first into a massive new era, after signing a US deal with Jay Z's label. Back with a brash, maximalist club banger - 'Get Sexy' - the trio looked set to prove haters wrong when the Bruno Mars-produced single shot to No.2. But a sudden line-up change altered the course of history with Keisha dramatically ousted and replaced by UK Eurovision queen Jade Ewen, who was midway promoting her sultry solo single 'My Man'. Despite the challenges, Sugababes 4.0 still turned out two UK Top 10 singles - 'About A Girl' and 'Wear My Kiss' - and delivered a major pop girl group album. It may not be a quintessential 'Sugababes album' but Joel and David can guarantee you'll find something to love here from 'Wait For You' to 'Thank You For The Heartbreak' and 'She's A Mess'! Goes without saying but nothing but absolute love and respect to all six 'Babes. We cannot wait to see the Origibabes - Mutya, Keisha and Siobhan - headline Mighty Hoopla in 2022!

| 50: Sugababes Part 3 - "Change" and "Catfights and Spotlights" | 2000s Pop Music Podcast | 03 Nov 2021 | 01:32:21 | |
Can we bring yesterday back around, pop fans? Because the wait is finally over for one of our most requested episodes yet: Sugababes Part 3! Casually arriving hot on the heels of the Babes' 20th anniversary reissue of "One Touch" and news of them headlining Mighty Hoopla next year.
Join Joel and David as we jump back to 2007 to celebrate one of Britain's greatest girl groups, the Sugababes, in their proper huge mainstream era "Change", which saw them top the album charts and score their sixth No.1 single with 'About You Now' - a mere six months after their last joint No.1 single with Girls Aloud for Comic Relief: 'Walk This Way'. What a year! As well as all your "Change" highlights like 'Denial', 'My Love Is Pink' and 'Never Gonna Dance Again', the Right Back At Ya! boys also reminisce on Keisha, Heidi and Amelle's iconic live gigs, promo appearances and music videos. We also shine a light on their often sidelined sixth album "Catfights and Spotlights", which showed off a brilliantly sophisticated vintage soul/funk sound. From the Boots anthem 'Girls' and 'No Can Do' through to fan faves like 'Side Chick' and 'You On A Good Day', there's something for everyone here. You'll know this from Parts 1 and 2 of our Sugababes episodes earlier this year but Right Back At Ya! is all about showing love and putting respect on all six 'Babes.

| 94: Britney Spears - "Oops!... I Did It Again" | 06 Apr 2024 | 01:32:01 | |
Hush. Just. Stop. Pop fans, it’s absolutely time that we jumped back into the world of Britney on the podcast! We are travelling back to the year 2000, with location pins dropped from Mars to Miami, to celebrate Britney’s iconic second album “Oops!… I Did It Again” and its accompanying world tour, which saw her in the very same room as our very own Joel Babbington for the first time in London. This massively successful, Diamond-certified teen-pop album marks an 18-year-old Britney Jean beginning to evolve after the industry-shifting success of her debut “…Baby One More Time”. Whether it was showcasing a fiercer image on ‘Stronger’ with video director Joseph Kahn, or painting a portrait of a trapped celebrity in ‘Lucky’ - it’s clear Britney has something to say. What U See (Is What U Get). From the commanding MTV VMA performance of her Rolling Stones cover ‘(I Can’t Get No) Satisfaction’ to the softer, sensual side of the Herb Ritts video for ‘Don’t Let Me Be The Last To Know’; Joel and David are taking you on a deep-dive like no other of this era.

| 49: Alexandra Burke - "Overcome" | 2000s Pop Music Podcast | 20 Oct 2021 | 01:21:20 | |
Calling all Bad Boys and Demon Twinks who have been telling DJs to play 'All Night Long'! We are celebrating one of the UK's finest 'total package' popstars: Alexandra Burke. For the first time in Right Back At Ya! history, we are covering an X Factor contestant - and we're starting with the bar raised high with not only an X Factor winner but a record-breaking artist who has sold over a million albums around the world, earning three Brit Award nominations in three consecutive years. Together Joel and David dive into Alexandra Burke's epic chart-topping debut album "Overcome" and its six Top 20 singles - three of which were No.1 hits: 'Hallelujah', 'Bad Boys' feat. Flo Rida, and 'Start Without You'. From her X Factor Series 5 journey through to whipping out RedOne bangers like 'Broken Heels' and A-list collabs with Pitbull ('All Night Long') and Ne-Yo ('Good Night, Good Morning') - Burke went big! It's no wonder we're still shook 12 years after its release.

The day has finally come. The RBAY! boys are finally diving into Jessica Simpson's discography, after 3.5 years of Joel relentlessly pestering David to do this. The Southern belle pop diva and 2000s pop culture icon we are celebrating is famed as one of The JB's Fab Four legends - alongside Britney Spears, Christina Aguilera and Mandy Moore. Together Joel and David get into Jessica's early years leading into her shining debut in 1999 as Tommy Mottola's new teen pop sensation with 'I Wanna Love You Forever'. They get into highlights of Successica Simpson's multi-platinum-selling debut album "Sweet Kisses", which featured Destiny's Child and her then-beau Nick Lachey. Whether we're pressing play on skyscraper power ballads or premium bops like 'I Think I'm In Love With You', 'Irresistible' and 'A Little Bit' - there really is more than meets the eye with Jessica's story. If you mostly know Jess from the MTV Newlyweds era onwards, this is a comprehensive and loving guide to her formative years in the spotlight - with some stories gleaned from her heartfelt memoir "Open Book" (a must-read!).

| 47: Mariah Carey - "Glitter" | 2000s Pop Music Podcast | 10 Sep 2021 | 01:21:44 | |
Lambs and pop fans, we are celebrating 20 years of Mariah Carey's iconic "Glitter" era! Dahhling, it may have been a little bleak two decades ago but we made it through the rain. Join Joel and David as we "Glitter-wash" our memories of this film and soundtrack with some much-needed positivity. Thanks to the #JusticeForGlitter movement and Mariah opening up about the details of this chapter in her amazing memoir "The Meaning of Mariah Carey" - we now have so much more to unpack. So zip up your hot pink race car driver suits, let's throw it back to 2001 when Mariah was giving us 80s funk, post-disco, and hip hop meauxments with 'Loverboy' and the "Glitter" soundtrack. From the Rick James-penned banger for Sylk, 'All My Life', through to A+ covers of 'Last Night A DJ Saved My Life' and 'Didn't Mean To Turn You On', Mariah really captured the energy of the 80s and gave it her signature tzush (and blockbuster ballads). Joel is convinced "Glitter" is the definitive revision of "A Star Is Born" and it's hard to disagree, really. Give it another watch - or watch with fresh adoring eyes today - and you're sure to find something to love in performances from Mariah, Terrence Howard, Max Beesley, Da Brat, Valarie Pettiford, Padma Lakshmi, and Whisper The Cat.

It may be a Mixed Up World right now but leave that all behind and escape to the 2000s with your Right Back At Ya! boys in this celebration of Sophie Ellis-Bextor. This month marks 20 years of Dame Sophie's iconic debut solo album era "Read My Lips". Catapulting from the global smash of 'Groovejet' with Spiller, former indie-frontwoman Sophie transformed into a disco-pop darling with a string of iconique Top 3 hits: 'Murder On The Dancefloor', 'Take Me Home' and 'Get Over You'. It was the dawn of a fruitful career that still resonates to this day in her Kitchen Disco era. Together Joel and David transform into Fabulous Bextor Boys as they study her timeless style, her music videos and mesmerising output from the "Read My Lips" and "Shoot From The Hip" albums.
