Alcazar heavily sampled "Spacer", the song that was just played.

I was so predictable! :D
But now is the end, really?

Setlist was something like this, right?:
1. Chris: Sharon Redd | Never Give You Up
2. Neil: Cass Elliot | It's Getting Better
3. Chris: ?
4. Neil: Desireless | Voyage, Voyage (another version)
5. Chris: Ce Ce Rogers | Someday (another version)
6. Neil: MGMT | Time to Pretend
What was Chris' second choice, and didn't he set one more track after Neil's MGMT?

Has someone recorded the show? I missed it.
Interviewer:
-What would you tell someone about yourself if you wanted to impress them?

Chris:
-I´ve got a 12-inch plonker.

Chris's first song was Gladys Knight's The Best Thing That Ever Happened To Me, which he dedicated to "all the friends I've had over the years". Aw!

Yes, Sharon Redd was his second. He mentioned that it used to get played a lot when it went out and he used to bump into people like Boy George. Shock horror Chris went to gay clubs. I can see the Sun headline now!!!!

The 1970s, actually. And it is of course distinctively Chic.
