    Of this week’s highlights and lowlights…

    4 Kelis – Caught Out There :O ===
    3 Backstreet Boys – Being Lonely :O ===Uh-oh. They’re back. Last week they did very badly, but I noted thatthey must be imports because they’re bound to do well, despite bothbeing shite.

    Kelis is probably the worst of the two, the song being nothing but herscreeching “I hate you so much right now”, making me dive for the off-switchas it’s a load of militant feminist shite.

    2 Artful Dodger & Romina Johnson – Movin Too Fast *Follow-up to “Re-wind and the crowd say…” something stupid, this isa decent upbeat tempo tune and I’m glad it’s beaten the Backpassage Boysand that godawful shouting woman.

    1 All Saints – Pure Shores * *2nd Week at No.1*After two crap tunes and one good one above, at least a decent song is at No.1and this is a soft ballad from the girls for the film, “The Beach”, starringLeo DiTitanic.

    The promo video though has a bizarre effect that does the impossible – itmakes the gorgeous Natalie Appleton look ugly.

    This single is the 6th in a row to go straight in at No.1.

  • 1. Westlife – I Have a Dream / Seasons in the Sun
  • 2. Manic Street Preachers – The Masses Against the Classes
  • 3. Britney Spears – Born to Make You Happy
  • 4. Gabrielle – Rise
  • 5. Oasis – Go Let it Out
  • 6. All Saints – Pure Shores

    Dominator’s Top 50 of 1999

    9. Straw – The Aeroplane SongThis won my best single of the week award for this upbeat track which featuresa lot of promotion (as it’s in the chorus) for airline “Lufthansa”, whichoccasionally got altered on some TV appearances. It made No.37 in Feb 99.

    It was followed up by “Moving To California” (No.50, Apr 99)

    The end bit :
