Dominator’s Top 50 of 2001After last week’s look back at all the Top 50 tracks of last year,this week sees the list of my Top 50 of 2001. From next week I shallbegin my look back at them.
18. Creed – With Arms Wide OpenMaking No.13 in January last year, this was intelligent heavy rock withincredible vocals and, surprisingly, airplay on mainstream stations, not justMTV2. Sadly, they failed to score a big follow-up.Review copyright © Dominic Robinson, 2002.
