Dominator’s Top 50 of 2001The following is my look back at my Top 50 of 2001.

49. Wheatus: Teenage Dirtbag

This band shot to prominance in February last year making No.2, with thistrack from the film “Loser”, but following their second single, a cover of”A Little Respect” (No.3, July 2001) and a third track, Wannabe Gangster (No.22,Jan 2002), precious little has been heard from them since.
