Of this week’s highlights and lowlights…

49 A Perfect Circle – 3 LibrasI can’t remember how this goes now but I do remember it was excellentand gets an occasional play on MTV2.

31 Lene Marlin – Where I’m HeadedOh, will this drippy bird get off our radio?! No wonder they’re not playingthis single since they’re all still playing the bloody awful “Sitting DownHere” !!

3 Fragma feat. Maria Rubia – Everytime You Need MeFollow-up to the disastrous remix of “Miracle” that somehow made it tothe top slot, but thankfully this has not.

2 (72) Steps – It’s The Way You Make Me FeelAfter last week’s cockup in the sales when some shops sold the single tooearly, making this their lowest new entry ever at No.72, this now climbs upthe chart.

However, they didn’t make it to No.1. What a shame (!)

1 Rui Da Silva feat. Cassandra – Touch Me *1st Week at No.1*

Another iffy dance track makes its way to the top slot.

This starts the new year with a new run of singles going straight in atNo.1 :

• 1. Rui Da Silva feat. Cassandra – Touch Me

Dominator’s Top 50 of 2000

2. Eels: FlyswatterMaking No.55 in June last year, this was a sombre rock track, most of thetime, and another that’s received endless plays on MTV2 and which deservedto be in the Top 10. It’s damn catchy too.

And, going by the video, I wonder if nuns really behave like that?

It was preceeded by “Mr E’s Beautiful Blues” (No.11, Feb 2000).

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,

Dominator
