I am focusing on Britpop gems. The movement started around 1993, and it sort of hit a peak, I think, in 1995, when you had the likes of Oasis and Blur fighting it out for chart supremacy. There are some who are not keen on Britpop, but I think it was a fabulous time for British music. It is a shame that, during this tough time, there is not something like that around that we can get behind and support. No matter. I think there should be a song or two in the playlist below that will satisfy your tastes! Even if you are not a massive Britpop fan, you cannot deny that some of the very best anthems are timeless and demand respect this many years on. As it is quite a warm weekend, I think these songs will help raise…
