  • 72 Nichola Holt – The Game

Of this week’s highlights and lowlights…

72 Nichola Holt – The GameOne of the Big Brother evictees, i.e. “Zippy”, the bald Sinead O’Connor-a-likefrom Bolton who left the day after Nasty Nick, tries her hand at the chartswith this dance single and it’s failed miserably. I actually thought it wouldbe a big hit too.

27 Erasure – FreedomTheir comeback and a rather boring one at that.

25 Muse – Muscle Museum * !!!Bloody brilliant, loud and atmospheric with a well-weird video, but can anyoneexplain what it’s all about? It’s a regular on MTV2, BTW.

8 Azzido Da Bass – Dooms NightA rip-off of Underworld’s Juanita.

2 Robbie Williams/Kylie Minogue – KidsA collaboration that’s on both their albums and it’s overhyped and lifeless.

1 U2 – Beautiful Day *1st Week at No.1*

The first single in a couple of years from the Irish band and it’s anincredibly dull and pedestrian affair with absolutely nothing to recommend it.

Why can’t they write another “Lemon”, “Numb” or “One”?

This single is the 34th in a row to go straight in at No.1 and beats theprevious record held last year of 32 singles going straight in at the top,which I listed last week.

    Dominator’s Top 50 of 1999

    42. Scritti Politti – Tinseltown To The BoogiedownA very good song this, and one for the dance-music-brigade. I thought it wouldhave gone in the Top 10, but I’m very surprised to see that Green Garside’scomeback track flopped, making No.46 in July last year.

    The end bit :

    Well, that’s it for now. If you want to be added to the WidescreenVideo and Laserdisc lists, just mail me.

    Bye for now,

    Dominator
