It's hardly surprising that recent chart music tends to get more plays.
Older Spotify users probably have a more diverse taste and are less likely to have classic tracks on repeat.

I managed to catch up over the course of a couple of weeks on account of having a new child who would only go to sleep in my arms. It gave me an excuse to binge-watch this and Scott Manley.

Fuck. I really wanted to hate that trailer, but it actually looks a bit alright.
Corden, I can just about stomach as it's in context to some degree. That hybrid Ginger/Albino cretin Sheeran needs to fuck the fuck off, though. Somebody needs to fucking tell him 'no', occasionally. Game of Thrones was already beginning to scrape the barrel before that partially sighted cunt showed up, but that was the final nail in the coffin for me.
Seriously, just fuck off, Sheeran.

I'm struggling with the premise
I know it's not a film you're meant to think about but I can't help it, it's fucking daft. Not just the world switching off and on and one band disappearing, but the fact that the only side effect is songs disappearing.
I want to see how culture is set back or altered by The Beatles not doing massive stadium gigs in America, how fashion is effected with such a huge chunk of the 60s missing and what happened to the Vegetarian Food market without Linda McCartney?

what I dont understand about Linda McCartney sausages and burgers
is that if she was supposedly a vegetarian, why did she consent to her corpse being used for sausages and burgers? Also, how massive must she have been? I bought some sausages made out of her the other day from Morrisons - they're in my freezer. How the fuck is this possible?

What If Gordon Banks Had Played?
In tribute to the recently deceased Mr B, here is an alternative history novel from the dark recesses and the early days of the internet. A good read if you know enough about 70s UK political history, if a bit ridiculous towards the end.
" England entered the 1970 World Cup as defending champions and, if anything, with a stronger squad than in 1966. After meeting Brazil in the first round Pele famously said to Bobby Moore that he would see him again in the final. It was not to be. In the event England's goalkeeper Gordon Banks was taken ill on the coach journey to their quarter-final match against West Germany. Banks was replaced by Peter Bonetti - but to no avail. Bonetti dived over a lacklustre shot from Franz Beckenbauer and Seeler headed in a second goal while Bonetti was off his line.
Germany scored a third goal in extra time and England were out of the World Cup. Three days later Labour lost the general election. There have been various explanations for Labour's defeat. Wilson blamed the BBC, others blamed unexpectedly low balance of trade figures, others the knock-on effect of England's defeat - in the words of one cabinet minster "the bug in Gordon Banks' tummy".
It could have been so different... "
