The actual band making the most play from big stadium tunes with a side order of undefinable dread and loss at this moment were Coldplay, who manage to avoid having a number one for AGES - and aren’t made much of by the DJ Sammys of this world either, though this, from the tireless Almighty Records, does its best.

Oh, and here’s Sammy’s take on “The Boys Of Summer” - tell me this doesn’t make more sense being about out of season Ibiza than about 80s California!
