Manics Top 50s - 25th Sep 2021

Next up is a returning top 50-er who keeps the same top two from his previous chart, let's face it our charts will probably change a lot over time but our absolute favourites are probably going to remain the same for the most part.  Unless of course one of the new songs has really hit home straight away, but we've yet to see one break the top 10 yet.

Richard thought this could perhaps be the only Lifeblood number 1, but the gauntlet has now been laid down if anyone else is prepared to match him!

The blog will take a short break due to some little-known Welsh band playing a couple of gigs that I'll be attending, but keep your charts coming and I'll catch up with the admin on Wednesday.
