Of this week’s highlights and lowlights…

29 Girls at Play – RespectableNo doubt the next girl band to get the chop following the Sugababes in theirtracks.

27 Jo Breezer – Venus and MarsA load of girlie slop.

20 Ash – Candy :O ===They’ve done some brilliant stuff in the past, but this is bloody awful andtakes “Take It Easy on Yourself” in the background and tries to work a songaround it (badly). The fact that you can’t get that track out of your head justmakes this one grate even further.

8 Sum 41: Fat Lip * !!!A brilliant rock track that’s been around on MTV2 for the past month ortwo twinned with the even better, but way too short, “Pain For Pleasure”

7 Bell and Spurling – Sven Sven Sven :O ===Comedy football recorded named in honour of the England coach.

1 Kylie Minogue – Can’t Get You Out of My Head *3rd Week at No.1*

Well, so much for the Kylie vs. Posh No.1 single battle as the lattercouldn’t even manage a hit inside the Top 5 – and deservedly so.

As for Kylie, it’s okay, but that’s all. It’s a mediocre track that doesn’tinspire much in the way of positive thoughts. Yes, she may have a slinky whitedress in the video but it doesn’t sit well when you have the body of anEthopian.

Much better is the track I’ve only recently heard, even though I understandit’s a year old and comes from her last album. That track is “Your DiscoNeeds You”. Why they hell wasn’t that released over here??
