Why it hits
This Top of the Pops 1995 take of “Lucky You” works because the song’s sweetness stays slightly tilted: bright chords and stacked harmonies, but with that gentle melancholy tucked underneath. The live TV setting adds a bit of nervous energy, which makes the chorus feel even more like sunlight breaking through — pop as a small act of optimism.
