    • 48 Lampies – Light up the World for Christmas
    • 64 Ocean Colour Scene – Crazy Lowdown Ways
    • 70 Scoobie – The Magnificent 7

Of this week’s highlights and lowlights…

25 Michael Jackson – CryI haven’t heard this yet, but since “You Rock My World” failed to hit thetop slot and his album’s almost sliding out of the Top 50, perhaps his timeis finally over?

20 Emma Bunton – We’re Not Gonna Sleep TonightPredictable pop pap, and since this has entered the charts so lowly itproves that her popularity is on the wane.

12 Feeder – Just A Day *A bit of a throwaway track but also a bit of fun nonetheless. Getting plentyof MTV2 airplay.

1 Robbie Williams & Nicole Kidman – Somethin’ Stupid *1st Week at No.1*

A cheesy crappy cover of the rather excellent Frank & Nancy Sinatra tune.

This is the 19th single in a row to go straight in at No.1 :

  • 1. DJ Pied Piper – Do You Really Like It
  • 2. Shaggy feat. Rayvon – Angel
  • 3. Moulin Rouge – Lady Marmalade
  • 4. Hear’Say – The Way To Your Love
  • 5. Roger Sanchez – Another Chance
  • 6. Robbie Williams – Eternity / The Road to Mandalay
  • 7. Atomic Kitten – Eternal Flame
  • 8. So Solid Crew – 21 Seconds
  • 9. Five – Let’s Dance
  • 10. Blue – Too Close
  • 11. Bob The Builder – Mambo No.5
  • 12. DJ Otzi – Hey Baby
  • 13. Kylie Minogue – Can’t Get You Out of My Head
  • 14. Afroman: Because I Got High
  • 15. Westlife – Queen of My Heart
  • 16. Blue – If You Come Back
