Of this week’s highlights and lowlights…

27 (13) Mel B – LullabyCome on Virgin, drop the silly tart! Her music career’s over!

20 AllStars – Best FriendsIs this that new trite teen band featuring the kid who used to be inHollyoaks? God, what a complete waste of time!

6 Limp Bizkit – My Way * !!!This deserved the top slot more than anything else this week. It takes awhile to get into it, but when it does it gets under your skin and isfantastic.

5 Stereophonics – Have a Nice Day :O ===Is this single really as bland as it sounds? They’re a bit like awannabe-Manics in trying to be clever with their lyrics whilst making itsound like anything but, although I can’t figure it out with this one.

2 Mis-Teeq – All I WantMore ‘attitude’ tripe from another 3-piece all-black all-girl band.

1 Shaggy feat. Rayvon – Angel :O === *3rd Week at No.1*

A cover of the enchanting PP Arnold track, Angel of the Morning, and abloody awful cover to boot, reducing it to a reggae beat and more OTT ‘rapping’by Shaggy. Why are people buying it?

His album has also gone to No.1 this week.

This is the second 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

Dominator’s Top 50 of 2000

25. Doves – The Man Who Told EverythingLike “Catch the Sun” in June 2000, this single also made No.32, but fivemonths later in Nov 2000. This one had quite a depressing and haunting melodybut was just as much a classic.Review copyright © Dominic Robinson, 2001.
