Dominator’s Top 50 of 2001The following is my look back at my Top 50 of 2001.
50. Zero 7 – Destiny
Only making No.30 in August last year, this band’s sombre music is the perfectthing to relax to, although this first single also mentioned “watching pornin my hotel dressing gown” but make of that what you will.
They followed this up with the similarly-brilliant “In the Waiting Line”(No.44, Nov 2001) and “Distractions” (No.45, March 2002), the latter of whichfeatured in an episode of Six Feet Under.
Next week, I’ll summarise my Top 50 of 2001, and the week after will revealmy Top 50 of 2002 – that’s if I can find 50 to talk about!
