The Crazy World of Arthur Brown - "Fire" (1968)

The London psychedelic rockers scored a No1 hit in the UK and Canada and No2 in the US with this.

This TV performance would have likely shocked many people at the time.

Ozzy Osbourne ft Billy Morrison and Steve Stevens - "Crack Cocaine" (2025)

The rocker, famous for fronting Black Sabbath, the Birmingham band who invented heavy metal in 1968 when they were each around 19-20 years old, is still making heavy metal at the age of 76.

The heavy metal pioneer and his wife Sharon have been wanting to return to Britain after many years living in California but they've been hindered due to Ozzy's recent ill health.

In his latest single, that famous Black Sabbath sound is there...

White Town - "Your Woman" (1997)

Hailing from the city of Derby, Derbyshire, the singer, musician and producer - real name Jyoti Mishra - scored a UK No 1 with this in 1997.

The song features a muted trumpet line taken from a 1932 recording of "My Woman" by Lew Stone and his Monseigneur Band, but the song itself was written by Jyoti.

The British Indian was born on the very day England won the World Cup in 1966.

This was his only No1.
