It's that time of year! "And what a year it's been for pop music, etc." (See also: Every end of year episode we've ever done.)We're counting down our top tracks of the year, and then some. This time we're delving into 20 - 11 of our favourite songs released in 2025, as well as discussing some of our top books and live shows, and the tracks that didn't quite make our countdown. But what are your highlights of the last twelve months? Let us know in the episode comments on Spotify, or on Instagram @trackbytrackuk Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

It's a Christmas miracle! 2025 is once again a Kylie Christmas, as Ms. Minogue celebrates 10 years of her festive collection with a Fully Wrapped version of the album featuring four brand new songs. We're going to be discussing them and much more on this year's brand new Christmas special, but before then we're becoming the ghosts of Christmas past as we head back to December 2020, when we celebrated five years of Kylie Christmas.Let us know your thoughts on Instagram @trackbytrackukIf this has got you in the mood check out (or revisit) our XMAS episodes on Cher, Erasure, The Killers, Phil Spector, Love Actually, Girls Aloud and, of course, Mariah Carey.

Last week we began our trip down memory lane to celebrate 20 years of Girls Aloud's Chemistry, and we had so much to say that we got kicked out of Track By Track HQ by security before we'd had time to finish ourselves off. So here we are with Part Two, where we discuss the rest of the album, the bonus tracks and some Further Listening.Let us know your thoughts on the episode and the album @trackbytrackuk on Instagram / Threads.And we'll be back very soon... Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

It's all about the hell of it, and it's all about Girls Aloud's third studio album, Chemistry, this time on Track By Track. And we've got so much to say that we've had to split it in two, lest you get sick of us rabbiting on about the stellar chemistry of Cheryl, Kimberley, Nadine, Nicola, Sarah and Xenomania. ...As if you ever could. Part Two will be with you next week, but in the meantime let us know your thoughts on the episode, the album and the girls @trackbytrackuk on Instagram and Threads, or [email protected] if you want to get into the detail.If you've enjoyed the episode please do leave us a five star review and a comment on your podcast platform of choice.Thanks for listening!

We said we'd be back if there was good enough reason... And the release of Saint Etienne's final album is reason enough for us. Then add Pete and Sarah from the band to the mix, as well as some words from album contributors Nick Heyward and Erol Alkan, and you have the makings of what is perhaps our most bittersweet episode yet. (Even more than our "final" episode!)Let us know what you think to the episode and the album @trackbytrackuk on Instagram or Threads, or ping us an email at [email protected] Hosted on Acast.

This really is it now - the final Track By Track. We're devoting the whole of the last ever episode to further listening for Pet Shop Boys 'Nonetheless', with so many great B-sides from the recent album/single campaign we just had to talk about as many as possible - an indulgence? For sure! ...Now ask yourself can you even forgive us? Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

It's the final Track By Track and we're finishing where we started back in 2018 - by talking about the latest Pet Shop Boys album. Back then it was 'Super' this time we're waxing lyrical about 'Nonetheless' which is also our album of the year, and a fitting end to our time with you. Enjoy. Hosted on Acast.
