If you got women on your mind, there are some in this old chart from 1970

[Chris Brown]

With Euro 2020 about to start, it occurs to me that Back Home is kind of the opposite of Football’s Coming Home.
Anyway not much else is topical unless you count classic tracks being reissued in box sets.

Playlists are here.Nearly everything was on Spotify, I hope they’re the right versions.

When I go further back I try to stick to charts with a few really massive songs in them, or ones I think are particularly remembered by later generations.
I’d put Bridge Over Troubled Water in that category too in this case.
