Upon hearing his voice, I know this is the man who appeared in the finale ofthe Young Ones doing the ‘song’, “I can hear your body talk”.
6 Jakkata & Seal – My VisionFor once a reasonable dance track. Helps to get a decent guest singer, you see. 2 Holly Valence – Down BoyThe dance beat, the sound, the low, breathy vocals. It’s just a copyof “Kiss Kiss” and should be avoided. Shame on you, Holly.

Dominator’s Top 50 of 2001The following is my look back at my Top 50 of 2001.
41. Semisonic – Chemistry
Making only No.35 last year, I couldn’t believe this got so low.It’s a very American-sounding song and one that instantly commands yourattention.
They had no other Top 40 hits last year.
