Aug 3rd, 2021 1h 31m

1 Jun 8th, 2021 2h 1m

In this episode we get to talk about Depeche Mode AGAIN which is always fun - after our special on 'Violator' in season one how will this fare in comparison? We have invited a very special guest to discuss it with us, the wonderful comedian/pod

S03E17 Bon Jovi 'Keep The Faith'

Nov 25th, 2020 1h 35m

It's Bon Jovi's big return after their 80s heyday - Jon Bon Jovi has cut off his big hair and the band has decided to go for a "more mature" sound in this post-grunge world of 1992. Great. Dave was a big fan of these guys in the 80s while Krist

S03E16 Bonus Episode - Rage Against The Machine S/T

Nov 11th, 2020 1h 33m

Yes yes yes, we know that this was never a number one UK album and therefore it doesn't fit our remit, but our podcast, our rules. Both Dave and Krister are such big fans of this album that we decided to do a full bonus episode on it to give it

S03E15 Prince 'Love Symbol'

Oct 27th, 2020 1h 47m

We are back with a much more frivolous and light-hearted episode than our previous one so you can expect many more smutty jokes and terrible puns throughout alongside our usual incisive music knowledge and expertise. Ahem.This week we are list

S03E03 Def Leppard 'Adrenalize'

Mar 4th, 2020 1h 35m

Do you wanna get rocked? That's what we're all REALLY asking ourselves all the time, isn't it? Well, maybe Def Leppard's 1992 album 'Adrenalize' can provide some answers. For this one we are joined by special guest Darren who is Dave's oldest f

S03E02 Bruce Springsteen 'Human Touch'

Feb 26th, 2020 1h 26m

The Boss is back with a long awaited album. In fact he's back with two released on the same day, but we're just looking at the one that got to number on in March 1992, Human Touch. Neither Dave nor Krister knew this one at all, or much Bruce Sp

S03E01 Wet Wet Wet 'High On The Happy Side'

Feb 19th, 2020 1h 17m

Good crikey, it's Season 3 of Pop, Collaborate & Listen! And what better way to start off our journey through 1992's number one albums than Wet Wet Wet? Well, probably loads of ways to be honest but we don't make the rules. We just listen to wh

S05E16 Rolling Stones 'Voodoo Lounge' with guest Gaz Jones

3 days ago 2h 4m

Thirty years after their debut album it turns out that the Rolling Stones are still capable of getting to number one in the UK with a new record. The 90s were fucking weird. Is this actually a good album though, should the Stones still have bot

S05E15 The Prodigy 'Music For The Jilted Generation'

17 days ago 2h

Some albums are deserving of the term 'gamechanger' and here's a massive one from 1994. The Prodigy's second album 'Music For The Jilted Generation' introduced so many people to dance music who might not previously have given it a second though

S05E14 Ace of Base 'Happy Nation'

Mar 13th, 2024 1h 32m

Who's up for a bit of Swedish reggae-pop then? Who knew that was going to be a big genre in the early 90s? Apparently Ace of Base did and they gave us quite a lot of it on this, their debut* album, which got to number one in 1994.As well as di

S05E13 The Cranberries 'Everybody Else Is Doing It...'

Feb 14th, 2024 1h 23m

We're taking a metaphorical journey to Ireland to dip our toes into the debut album by The Cranberries 'Everybody Else Is Doing It So Why Can't We'. A band that both Dave and Krister admit to not liking the majority of what they've heard but th

S05E12 2 Unlimited 'Real Things'

Jan 24th, 2024 1h 25m

S05E11 Seal II

Nov 29th, 2023 1h 38m

We are back, and so is Seal with another self-titled album. After doing Seal 'Seal' in our second season we find ourselves doing Seal 'Seal' in season 5 as well. Has the music changed or progressed? Is this a very different beast to the one tha

S05E10 Erasure ’I Say I Say I Say’

Oct 17th, 2023 1h 32m

We are thoroughly back into our regular episodes after a bumpy, special-riddled journey of recent times. And this one is about Erasure's sixth album 'I Say I Say I Say' from May of 1994. We have already done an Erasure album back in Season 2 an

S05E09 Senser ’Stacked Up’ Bonus Episode

Sep 19th, 2023 1h 36m

Yes, yes, ANOTHER diversion from our regular journey through the 90s, this time an episode all about Senser's debut album 'Stacked Up' from May 1994. This is an album that we both have a lot of love for, one that we played over and over when it

S05E08 Blur ’Parklife’

Aug 29th, 2023 2h 1m

If you've ever heard Dave talk about Blur on the podcast before you'll know that he was NOT looking forward to this episode one bit. But rules are rules and so we had to cover it and see what we reckoned - the question is did it change Dave's m

S05E07 Pink Floyd ’The Division Bell’

Jul 25th, 2023 1h 56m

Sound the Prog Rock Siren, we're back in business with Pink flipping Floyd and their 1994 album 'The Division Bell'. An album which the band thought at the time would be their last - did they try and mix things up for their swansong and put tog

S05E06 Soundgarden ’Superunknown’ Bonus Episode

Jun 6th, 2023 1h 28m

In the second of our mid-1994 sidesteps away from the actual number one albums we decided to do a full episode on Soundgarden's massive breakthrough album 'Superunknown' which was released on the same day as last episode's NIN 'The Downward Spi

S05E05 Nine Inch Nails ’The Downward Spiral’ Bonus Episode

May 9th, 2023 1h 46m

It's our 100th episode!! Which is mad enough in itself so we figured we should mark the occasion with a bonus episode on a true classic album of the 90s, Nine Inch Nails 'The Downward Spiral'. Dave came into this one already a huge fan of the r

S05E03 Enigma ’The Cross Of Changes’

Mar 28th, 2023 1h 32m

Why do bad things happen to good people? Why did two Enigma albums have to get to number one meaning we are duty bound to listen to them? 1994 continues its rollercoaster up and down ride with 'The Cross Of Changes', the second album from new a

S05E02 Tori Amos ’Under The Pink’

Mar 15th, 2023 1h 37m

After last episode's adventure into pop-dancehall we're doing a pretty extreme 180 into the world of Tori Amos and her second solo album 'Under The Pink' from February 1994. Will Dave decide that these songs could also be improved with some toa

S05E01 Chaka Demus & Pliers ’Tease Me’

Feb 15th, 2023 1h 57m

Season Five, people! Imagine that if you can: we have survived the albums from 1990-93 relatively unscathed and we're now diving headfirst into 1994 to see what that holds for us. And it appears to hold Chaka Demus & Pliers.We decided that we
