That was it, then. Hope you enjoyed it as much as I did.
Of course, as I've explained and clarified to a few people it's only the end of Pop In The Real World on Royal Borough Radio. It will be back by the end of September on Mixcloud. More details to follow via the blog, Facebook and X.
Here are the songs with a couple of added comments.
Baby I Know - The Rubettes (Hope everyone realised I was joking with the intro.)
Unchanged - Dot Allison (with Andy Bell)
Pretty Paracetamol - Fischer Z
Temple Head - Transglobal Undergroiund
Aerial Head - Lava La Rue
Save It For Later - The Beat (The version in the show was the extended version. It's not available on Spotify so the playlist features the single version. Here's a version I found on YouTube though. https://music.youtube.com/watch?v=Nm9MvpjuFJU&si=liUqMgWMfqg6nXLf )
A Song From Under The Floorboards - Magazine
Dreaming - 86TVs

A Design For Life - Manic Street Preachers (I'd forgotten that there's a line in the chorus - This is the end - that feels appropriate to the occasion.)
All These Things That I've Done - The Killers ( There's a spoken line in the background toward the end - "Time to depart". Again, perfectly timed for the occasion!)
To anyone who's made the time to listen. comment, respond or encourage anything to do with the show - thank you.
