Of this week’s highlights and lowlights…

Tears For Fears:
Closest Thing To Heaven
[Everybody Loves a Happy Ending]

40 Tears For Fears – Closest Thing To Heaven

Not a wonderful comeback, and given that they’ve done this with more publicity than anything else sincethe end of the ’90s, taking into account the fact the pair are now speaking to each other again, they’llprobably begin to wonder why they bothered.

Charlotte Hatherley: Bastardo
[Grey Will Fade]

31 Charlotte Hatherley – Bastardo

I find this woman absolutely stunning. Something about that dour look on her face reminds me of all thosewomen who you fancy like mad, partly because it’s clear they have absolutely zero interest in you.

This track seems like it goes along in the same vein a bit too much for too long, but it turns out that bythe time it gets to the end it’s completely hooked you in and you’ll want to listen again. However, I can’tsee it getting much airplay due to the title.

The Futureheads:
Hounds of Love
[The Futureheads]

8 The Futureheads – Hounds of Love

Updated cover of the 1985 Kate Bush classic. Starts off great but you soontire of it.

Girls Aloud: Wake Me Up
[…Neighbours Say?]

4 Girls Aloud – Wake Me Up

About as formulaic as their music has got so far. Are they ever going tochange direction?

A few weeks ago they performed “Here We Go” on CD:UK, leading me to wonder how much lower can they sinknow that they sound even more like a carbon copy of the Spice Girls, with the same riffs and beats?

And the Wonderbra award goes to Cheryl for ‘beefing up’ her chest.

Nelly: Over and Over
[Suit]

1 Nelly – Over and Over *1st New Week at No.1*

Why is he wearing a pair of tights on his head in the video? Is he planninga robbery?

This is the 8th single in a row to go straight in at No.1:

    1. Elvis Presley – Jailhouse Rock
    2. Elvis Presley – One Night
    3. Ciara – Goodies
    4. Elvis Presley – It’s Now or Never
    5. Eminem – Like Toy Soldiers
    6. U2 – Sometimes You Can’t Make It On His Own
    7. Jennifer Lopez – Get Right
    8. Nelly – Over and Over
