‘Chasing Cars,’ Christina Aguilera and a Vicious Rumour About Kasabian (30 Jul - 5 Aug 2006)

We’re the pop music history podcast reliving the biggest songs from every week in the 2000s. This week 20 years ago on the 2006 pop charts, one of the biggest songs of the decade quietly appeared in the middle of the chart. Little did we know that Chasing Cars would just lay here and just forget the world for week upon week.In this episode of your favourite 00s nostaglia podcast, we tell the story of the making of that track, and how its lyrics were nearly very different (and much worse), as well as telling the story of Paris Hilton’s pop career, Christina Aguilera’s “pathetic” diss track against her former producer, why Madonna’s Get Together has such a rubbish video and learn whose songs Kasabian hilariously described as “ventriloquist’s music.”Featuring the following tracks:Armand Van Helden - MyMyMy
