Chartfelch: Feel the top 75
Not as much 'action' further down, with Stereophonics' 'Superman' putting in a caped appearance at 13 and Glastonbury-slot-missers The Subways giving 'Rock & Roll Queen' a jolly good bash to the number 22 slot.
In the more distant throes of stardom, we find Ladytron brushing the bristles of the beard of the Top 40 at 45, with Simple Plan pop-punking it large at 49. Ocean Colour Scene slowly begin to realise that Britpop finished a few years ago with 'This Day Should Last Forever' making 53, closely followed by Steve Harley & Cockney Rebel's re-issue of 'Make Me Smile' to coincide with their Glastonbury performance at number 55.
More slightly obscure entries at 59 for Be Your Own PET and Tom Vek's congestion-charge anthem 'C-C' at 60.

Re: Chartfelch: Feel the top 75
Had some mates with him though, so I had to bite my lip to stop from laughing out loud.
Seriously, it was comedy time a million.

how did they become so irrelevant after releasing two* of britrock's best albums?
*three if you count the excellent b-sides, seasides and free rides

God, no. You certainly aren't. It's absolutely fucking rubbish. I hate the Subways.
