Tone Def: The Blair era in UK number one hits

It started with Michael Jackson, then Gary Barlow (!), and ended with Rihanna featuring Jay-Z. In between there was an awful lot of dross and the occasional nugget. Here, should anyone wish to make sense of it, is the complete list of UK number 1 hit singles during Tony Blair's tenure as PM (thanks, Wikipedia). If anyone's partying tonight, you know what to play. Mark Ronson, Dangermouse, AN Other: how about a megamash-up mix of all these hits with a 4/4 beat? Stars on 45? Nah, mate, it's time for Stars on Shuffle Play...
