The best One Hit Wonders and the stories behind them, this week with Touch And Go talking about ‘Would You…?’

OJ plays the best One Hit Wonders from the 80s, 90s and 00s.

This week, with David Lowe and Jim Lynch from Touch And Go.

In 1998, they were asking a very simple question.

‘Would You…?’

It got to number 3 in the UK charts in 1998.

They talk OJ through how they produced the song, sample by sample, and find out how they inspired one of the best known theme tunes for one of the UK’s biggest TV shows!

David Lowe is an established composer, arranger and producer working primarily in television, radio, branding, idents and commercials, both in the UK and internationally.

Jim Lynch can often be heard playing the trumpet in huge West End musicals, along with orchestras and gigs for the biggest music stars in the world.
