This is the Global Countdown first broadcast on the briefing on the 1st of August.
And finally on today's briefing, it is Thursday and that means that our Global Countdown expert and musical curator in chief, Fernando Augusto Pacheco is with me right here in our Midori house studio.
Fernando, you've brought us, to follow on from the top of the show, your play on words.
You brought us some Turkish delights.
You stole it from me.
Chris, I'm joking.
I think we both had the same idea, right?
We both had the same idea.
We couldn't really resist.
But can I possibly be heading.
I genuinely thought.
I brought you some delights because we're heading to Turkey and I think it's a very exciting music scene.
As you know, I've been mourning since Turkey left Eurovision because I think they always had excellent entries.
I'm still hoping that one day they will be back.
But for now we're looking at their top five songs at the moment.
I gotta warn you though, number five is very emotional.
Very emotional.
Are we going to.
Are there going to be tears here in the studio?
There might be, but although it's a hip hop song, so, you know, it's not quite.
