“I sat down on the bed with my keyboard in front of me," continues Nicks. "I found a drum pattern, switched my little cassette player on and wrote 'Dreams' in about 10 minutes.” #TOTP

The Corrs’ take on ‘Dreams” was originally recorded for Legacy: A Tribute To Fleetwood Mac's Rumours, a 20th anniversary album of cover versions from the classic album. For this single release, Todd Terry was enlisted to remix the track. #TOTP

“Dreams” was a hit again when a cover by house outfit Deep Dish (featuring vocals by Stevie Nicks) reached 14 in April 2006. youtube.com/watch?v=N2KiGf… #TOTP

Remember when donna air asked the corrs where did they first meet, in an interview #totp

The 21st of 32 UK top 40 hits (including one number one) for Simply Red, "Say You Love Me" was at its number seven peak. #TOTP

The title "Say You Love Me" has also provided top 40 hits for Fleetwood Mac (40, November 1976) and Jessie Ware (22, October 2014). #TOTP

Pre-Simply Red, Mick Hucknall had a punk band called Frantic Elevators. Here's some live footage: youtube.com/watch?v=JnRXw9… and a 1981 Peel Session: youtube.com/watch?v=doDOi5… #TOTP

The first of 12 UK top 40 hits (including one number one) for LeAnn Rimes, "How Do I Live" had already peaked at seven (for two non-consecutive weeks). #TOTP

The first of 12 UK top 40 hits (including one number one) for LeAnn Rimes, "How Do I Live" had already peaked at seven, for two non-consecutive weeks. #TOTP

Unusually for this era, "How Do I Live" spent 30 consecutive weeks in the top 40, bouncing around inside the top 20 for the first 18 of them. #TOTP

“How Do I Live” was written by Diane Warren, whose other hits include Aerosmith's "I Don't Want To Miss A Thing", Starship's "Nothing's Gonna Stop Us Now", Debarge's "Rhythm Of The Night" and Toni Braxton’s “Un-Break My Heart”. #TOTP

“How Do I Live” was written for the soundtrack of Con Air, and demoed with LeAnn Rimes. Diane Warren: “Jerry Bruckheimer, who produced the movie, loved the song, but he wanted some changes...” #TOTP

“But Leann’s dad Wilbur, who co-produced the song, did not want to make any changes.” So Bruckheimer had country singer Trisha Yearwood record a new version, which was used in the film. youtube.com/watch?v=_1TLXR… #TOTP

Fancy seeing what was on the front cover of the Radio Times back in May 1998 when this #TOTP was first broadcast.

The second of six UK top 40 hits for Cleopatra, "Life Ain't Easy" was at its number four peak. Each of their top 40 hits debuted in its peak position. #TOTP

Cleopatra were sisters Cleo, Zainam and Yonah Higgins, from Manchester. #TOTP

Cleopatra also had a sitcom on CITV (called first Comin’ Atcha!, then In The House With Cleopatra), which lasted for two seasons. youtube.com/watch?v=gav3no… #TOTP

Cleo Higgins later trained as a pastry chef. She appeared on season two of The Voice UK, and got through to the semi-finals before being eliminated. #TOTP

I wonder if she's got a packed lunch in that backpack. #TOTP

How would you know if life ain't easy? Your collective age is about seven #TOTP
