Dominator’s Top 50 of 1999
36. Moloko: Sing it Back
This made No.4 in September last year in a remix form after the originalstiffed at No.45 the previous March.
It was followed by The Time is Now (No.2, April 2000), anotheratmospheric track that deserved your attention and was beaten to No.1by Mel C’s Never Be the Same Again and more recently Pure Pleasure Seeker(No.21, August 2000), a definite foot-tapper with a video making it looklike they’re performing on “The Old Grey Whistle Test”, even going as far asto give back that hair to “Whispering” Bob Harris for a cameo.
The end bit :
Well, that’s it for now. If you want to be added to the WidescreenVideo and Laserdisc lists, just mail me.
Bye for now,
