There was definately one year that used the Ting Tings, I am sure of it, yet I cannot find any evidence to support this. I was sure it was either '07 or '08

[AdamSheff]

My guess is Biffy. Bubbles maybe. Not a fan but last few years they have gone for that type of band with Muse and Kasabian

[Spindles]

Maybe it was used for Reading festival?

[Guest blackcockerel]

I think 98 was Song 2.

[gooner1990]

1997 - Teenage Fanclub - Kickabout

Nearly have the full set!

Good 4 U by Olivia Rodrigo a safe bet? Close thread already?

Bit noisy innit.

Wake Me Up seems like a good choice, thematically and musically. Or Chaise Longe because it's the most anticipated song of the weekend and the BBC already play it non-stop.

It’s that dun dun, dun dun dun bit of the riff that I think will make the coverage.

"Bad Guy" will be my guess

They don't normally use a headliner do they?

[dentalplan]

Is there a thingy for this?

[CaledonianGonzo]

Live and Let Die riff

[Hugh Jass II]

The opening credits is usually only about ten seconds long and is usually a snippet of something contemporary. Whatever Foals have out by then might be a shout.

The two minute montage at the start of the highlights show? Well it wouldn’t surprise me if they went an extended “Nanna na na!” from Macca doing Hey Jude.

Backseat Freestyle

[gooner1990]

Oh yes…I was unemployed for a few months in 2011….looks like I had a lot of time on my hands! 😆

WAP

[kingcrawler]

I think Chaise Longue, maybe something by Sam Fender but none of his songs seem an obvious fit. Might be a bit heavy for it but maybe Smile by Wolf Alice?

I hope it’s the Arcade Fire Unsubscribe song
