Of this week’s highlights and lowlights…

36 Keith ‘n’ Shane – Girl You Know It’s TrueThis is a cover of the Milli Vanilli original which made No.3 in October1988. I say “original”, but then the duo, Rob and Fab, never sang on theirown songs, so one started his proper solo career and the other topped himself.

34 Lionel Richie – Don’t Stop The Music…until it falls out next week.

27 Green Day – WarningA rather average effort for this band.

25 Billie Piper – Walk of LifeA poor new entry, but she’s done very well for herself in this past weekafter being wooed by ginger tosser Chris Evans on his radio show on Wednesday,taken to Stringfellows for a drink on Thursday, and being given a£110,000 Ferrari on Friday morning!

14 Craig – At This Time Of Year :O ===Big Brother winner Craig Philips releases his first solo single and itdoes better than Zippy’s, aka Nichola Holt, who made No.72 with “The Game”.

It’s still a soppy load of Xmas shite though, and his record company saidthey don’t give out five-album deals to novelty artists (!)

Oh, half the proceeds go to charrideee and the rest goes in Craig’s backpocket.

4 Robbie Williams – SupremeRather a remake of “I Will Survive” and with a dodgy 70s-inspired promo,this does grate after a short while

1 (2) Bob The Builder – Can We Fix It? *1st Week at No.1*
