0:00.0 | This is a download from LBC, Steve Allen's Little Bit Extra. |
0:06.1 | Morning everybody, welcome along to your free podcast for today, Thursday, the 7th of September. |
0:11.7 | And as we wake up to the staggering news that Megan McKenna has knocked Taylor Swift off the top of the charts with a debut single, yes, Megan McKenna has. And I thought to myself, |
0:23.0 | God, I mean, that's quite something. She has a show on at the moment where she's over in Nashville |
0:28.2 | doing something. As long as she stays over there, I don't really care. But of course, |
0:31.8 | she's been in Ex-on-the-Beach, Towie, and appearing at a local library probably very soon, I should imagine. And so I was curious to |
0:40.2 | discover, you know, just how much of a singing voice has she got and how many records you need to |
0:45.7 | sell to actually get to number one in the charts. Well, the second answer you're looking for is |
0:49.9 | not very many. Taylor Swift, of course, has probably sold shed loads. Megan McKenna has just |
0:55.9 | sold that little bit extra, but only on this one week so she can get to number one. You'll know |

1:16.5 | Yeah, thank you. Multi-tracked, as you can hear, and probably with a bit of auto-tuning, |
1:24.1 | which always makes it sound slightly electronic. And she said she's, she's very flattered. |
1:29.1 | Very, very flattered. So she gets number one. And then you've got, there's all sorts of people |
1:35.2 | in there, think, I've never heard of think before. Also, duo leap, leaper. I think I've heard of |
1:43.6 | duo leaper as well, actually. James Hype? |
1:46.8 | No, why have I not heard of anybody in the show? This is probably why I'm working for LBC, ladies and gentlemen. |
1:51.1 | I'm not working for one of our music stations, because they would probably know this as well. |
1:55.5 | But anyway, so it's Yehor for Megan McKenna. And as I say, and it's hope she's, I mean, you know, perhaps she'll go and live in America. |
2:03.3 | That'd be quite nice, wouldn't it? I'll happily pay. Lauren Goodyear, oh dear, sorry to drag up the name of |
