Anyone else watching/listening on BBC 2?
Loving all the songs but having just heard
Pulp's Something Changed, which reminded me of an article I read last year

https://www.theguardian.com/culture/2025/may/17/my-cultural-awakening-pulp-something-changed

So has any song made a profound difference to your life? Would love to hear about it!

My cultural awakening: a Pulp song made me realise I was in love with my best friend

I was too afraid to confess my feelings and be rejected, until hearing Jarvis Cocker’s words gave me a moment of clarity

Oh no I missed that, have to look at Iplayer, when were they on.

murasaki · 28/02/2026 22:24

Didn't realise this was on. Loved Jessie Ware, enjoying Raye. I'll have to iplayer deacon blue.

Stormzy doing Oleta Adams is not something I'd imagined.

Totally. I don't think he did it justice. I love him, but that wasn't his finest hour.

suburburban · 28/02/2026 22:41

Yes really good, haven’t watched all of it yet

murasaki · 28/02/2026 22:42

Ah, Mickey Bubbles. Not my cup of tea.

IntelligentInputDarling · 28/02/2026 22:45

Mickey Bubbles 😄
Not quite hitting the teenage angst that is at the heart of this song right @murasaki

Theonlywayicanloveyou · 28/02/2026 22:45

I was enjoying it but I’m exhausted so have just retired to bed.

I loved Blur in my teens but my real cultural awakening came with Elastica I think.
