I think the kids count the number of "downloads" that "MP3s" have these days, rather than there being a proper chart as such. :shrug:

They still have a proper chart. Downloads have been part of it for about a decade, but streaming counts too now.

It's on a Friday.

I like his advice on cooking steak..."Don't fucking touch it...don't prod it, don't poke it, don't even look at it"

It was also his opinion that the only cheese that should go on a burger are processed cheese slices

I'm sympathetic to that view, but having had blue cheese on there once I can't agree.
