What You Do
(Playing With Stones)
Get the synth out for this one as it’s the rare time when a dance track isreleased that I think it’s bloody wonderful. I could listen to this one forquite some time.
A Moment Like This
This year’s X-Factor winner, ergo this year’s Xmas No.1.
It doesn’t matter who’d won, nor what they sang for this single, the mindless sheep have gone out andbought it again, as if they haven’t learned over the years.
“Oh, but she can sing!”, cry those who watch the show religiously. Big deal. So what if she sounds likea cross between Whitney and Mariah Carey, she’s as bland as the pair put together.
