In the last chart of 1998, I posted my Top 50 singles of the year, pickingout the Top 10 first. During 1999, I’ll be going through the list one by onestarting with the Top 10 in alphabetical order.
This week : 12 new entries, 1 climbers, 1 non-movers & 26 downers.CHART TIME !
(* – my current favourites)
(!!! – Single Of The Week!!!)
(:O === the current all-time hate that makes even my smilie want to hurl!)
( (R) – Repeat., ie. a re-release)
A brief analysis on the current chart situation…
12 new entries :
…is about the only thing he says in this song, other than “I wanna be yourlover”..
If he’s not careful, he’ll find that it’s follow-up songs like this that’llsend him back to where he belongs – a place he last experienced after”Un Dos Tres Maria” two years ago.
2 Will Smith – Will 2K :O ===This time Will rips off The Clash’s “Rock The Casbah”. However, unlike”Gettin’ Jiggy Wit’ It”, he doesn’t use the plagiarism much effect here.
1 Robbie Williams – She’s The One/It’s Only Us :O === *1st Week at No.1*Respectively : one ballad and one ‘rock’ song, one used in a Dreamcast advertand one used in a “Fifa 2000” advert (as well as making an appearance in thegame itself), and both are shite.
