    Of this week’s highlights and lowlights…

    34 Beck – Mixed Bizness * !!!One of Beck’s more funky offerings, this top tune is the sort of thing thatshould be in the top slot, not the five from Ireland.

    19 Celine Dion – First Time Ever I Saw Your Face :O ===Covers like this should be punishable by death.

    6 Atomic Kitten – See YaWhy is it that I keep thinking of Brookside’s Emily Shadwick whenever Isee this band in action? 😉

    1 Westlife – Fool Again :O === *1st Week at No.1*Bland, dull and now record holders with five No.1’s going straight into thecharts at the top. How did CD-UK manage to have Mel C at the top slot? Theywere following the record-breaking chance and fluffed it by puttingHairy Spice at the top instead of Westloife.

    This single is the 11th in a row to go straight in at No.1.

  • 1. Westlife – I Have a Dream / Seasons in the Sun
  • 2. Manic Street Preachers – The Masses Against the Classes
  • 3. Britney Spears – Born to Make You Happy
  • 4. Gabrielle – Rise
  • 5. Oasis – Go Let it Out
  • 6. All Saints – Pure Shores
  • 7. Madonna – American Pie
  • 8. Chicane featuring Bryan Adams – Don’t Give Up
  • 9. Geri Halliwell – Bag It Up
  • 10. Melanie C – Never Be The Same Again
