What Makes A 'Ben and Rich Song'?

Throughout time society has marvelled at what goes into the making of a 'Ben and Rich Song' and how an average song can be rediscovered and given a new lease of life thanks to Ben and Rich's approval. Well wonder no more as we delve into the history of Ben and Rich's ultimate playlist.

• Maria - Blondie
  • A mutual love of a brilliant song coupled with many unsuccessful attempts at getting it played in many different bars and clubs made this one Ben and Rich Song number one.
• Don't Stop Believing - Journey
  • A karaoke-like rendition every time it appeared in a club forced it onto the list. A sudden popularity boost causing it to be played all the time at every club in Cheltenham very nearly took it off.
• I'll Be Ready - Sunblock
  • Ben's shambles of an attempt to sing it coupled with Rich's tendency to phone Ben at all hours and sing it down the phone to him made this an instant classic.
• Sunchyme - Dario G
  • In year one of university Ben and Rich heard Sunchyme's hypnotic beat whilst browsing Youtube but it took a whole year to find which song the beat belonged to. It now has pride of place in Ben and Rich's playlist.
• Heaven is a Place on Earth - Belinda Carlisle
  • After unconsciously calling out to his brother for help, Rich's words were put to the tune of Heaven is a Place on Earth and have been sung to him ever since...
• Twelve Days of Christmas - Straight No Chaser
  • Original, funny, an Africa - Toto cameo. Say no more.
• What is Love? - Haddaway
  • An average song became an SNL sketch became an epic Pepsi advert became a needlessly long yet funny Youtube find became an average song...on Ben and Rich's playlist! Must be accompanied with head bob.
• Temptation - Heaven 17
  • Rich's ludicrous knowledge of random music dug this one up and it now hangs from the wall of the Ben and Rich Song Clubhouse...the metaphorical clubhouse.
