Any Given Sunday should’ve had an immediate sequel called Any Given Saturday about what the inside of a college football locker room looked like. With NIL, the idea of Any Given Saturday doesn’t work. But set the film in the late ‘90s? I’d buy tickets immediately. Hell, have Oliver Stone return to direct. Who says no??

Sharp social commentary disguised as an infectious pop song helped make "Happy Hour" The Housemartins' Top 10 breakthrough in 1986. Featured on their debut album London 0 Hull 4, it combined witty lyrics with irresistible hooks to become one of the band's defining singles. Their appearance on Top of the Pops captured the group as they were becoming one of Britain's most distinctive new acts.

A woman had Netflix for 6 years.

She opened the app. She scrolled. She picked something after 25 minutes. She fell asleep during episode 2. She repeated this every night.

Her friend, a former Netflix UI engineer, sat on her couch one evening and opened Settings on her account. He changed 9 things in under 15 minutes.

Her homepage transformed overnight. The autoplay trailers stopped. The "continue watching" list cleaned itself up. The recommendations got sharper. The buffering on her 4K TV disappeared. The categories multiplied from 30 to 2,200.

She said "it feels like a completely different app."

He said "it is. You've been using the factory settings for 6 years. Netflix ships the version that keeps you scrolling longest, not the version that helps you find something fastest."

Here's every setting he changed 🧵

Although never included on a studio album, "Whatever" became one of Oasis's most beloved songs after its release in 1994, with Noel Gallagher pairing soaring melodies and orchestral flourishes to create one of the band's biggest singalong anthems. Performed in Tokyo in 2002, this version captures Oasis during the Heathen Chemistry era, proving the song had lost none of its power with live audiences.

Years later and it still makes absolutely zero sense how Salah won a Puskás award over this Ronaldo masterpiece

"Video Killed the Radio Star" was the debut single from The Buggles' 1979 album The Age of Plastic. The song reached #1 on the UK Singles Chart, #1 in Australia, #1 in Japan, #16 on the US Billboard Hot 100, and became historically significant as the first music video ever aired on MTV, when the channel launched on August 1, 1981.

The video also features a young Hans Zimmer on keyboards, years before he became one of Hollywood's most acclaimed film composers.

"My Ever Changing Moods" became one of The Style Council's defining early singles, showing how far Paul Weller had moved from The Jam's guitar-driven sound. Issued in 1984, the hit single version brought together soul, pop and jazz influences with the band's sharp new image, while Café Bleu featured a much more stripped-back arrangement. This German TV appearance captures The Style Council in their breakthrough year, performing the version that helped make the song one of their signature moments.
