The reply was :
“Thank you for your E mail regarding our choice of music accompanying ouradverts for the Twisted Crust pizza.
Please accept our apologies for any upset you may have been caused,however, the remix version of the song was chosen for its rythym and theuse of “twisting” in the lyrics.
Assuring you of our best attention at all times.
Yours sincerely
Customer Care Centre”
24 REM – All the Way To Reno * !!!Sounding rather a lot, in places, like a B52’s album track, Follow Your Bliss,taken from the Cosmic Thing album, this is pure genius even if it israther repetitive. 19 Catatonia – Stone By StoneAnd drink by drink, since the excesses of being an international pop starhas taken its toll on Cerys by sending her to a drying-out clinic. 1 Atomic Kitten – Eternal Flame :O === *1st Week at No.1*As the Bangles re-release their Greatest Hits album under the title of this,their 1989 No.1 single, the band that were nearly dead before “Whole Again”capitalise upon the popularity of the track with a dire cover version thatturns it from a sloppy romantic song into a pop song.

Dominator’s Top 50 of 2000
31. Infesticons – Hero ThemeCatchy dance track from last year that never seemed to touch the chartsbut is a classic to these ears, with fast rap that’s actually clever,although features some dodgy lyrics that aren’t for young ears.Review copyright © Dominic Robinson, 2001.
