Of this week’s highlights and lowlights…

36 (16) 3SL – Touch Me Tease MeSince their lacklustre No.16 placing last week, the three brothers ofSteps’ Lisa Scott-Lee have been dumped by their record company. Shame(!)

20 Tweenies – Have Fun Go MadA cover for children of the track originated by Blair in September 1995 whichonly made No.37. Who was Blair? The lanky ginger kid in the Oxo adverts withLynda Bellingham. Where’s he been since?

2 Appleton – FantasyNicole and Natalie Appletop have finally got their duo project underway afteryears of messing about, but it’s a shame it’s so pedestrian and predictable.Pass.

1 Atomic Kitten – The Tide is High *2nd Week at No.1*

A rather poor cover of the Blondie track. Nuff said.

• 1. Aaliyah – More Than a Woman
