Top of the Pops, 18th January 2024

It's almost a perfect episode of Top of the Pops this week, with a great mix of genres, a big new entry from Liam Gallagher and John Squire, a resurgent hit from friend of the show The Weeknd, a surprise return for the Natasha Bedingfield track, and a double bill from Noah Kahan at number 1.
