Of this week’s highlights and lowlights…

Kate Nash: Foundations
[Made of Bricks]

63 (58) Kate Nash – Foundations

Talk about the Emperor’s New Clothes. Just what is the big deal with this talentless girl? It’s a case of,”If you can’t think of a decent lyric, just shout in Cockney and all will work out.”

James Blunt: 1973
[All The Lost Souls]

51 (41) James Blunt – 1973

I wish he *would* go back to 1973.

Sean Kingston: Beautiful Girl
[Sean Kingston]

39 (31) Sean Kingston – Beautiful Girl

No idea what this is about, but it’s not had many good write-ups on Amazon(click on the cover art).

Led Zeppelin:
Stairway To Heaven
[Mothership]

37 Led Zeppelin – Stairway To Heaven

Yes, Led Zeppelin finally release a single after 40 years, but it’s to plug theirnew compilation, Mothership.

Scouting For Girls:
She’s So Lovely
[Scouting For Girls]

31 (27) Scouting For Girls – She’s So Lovely

Love this song, and the hottie in the video is a model called Louise Glover (google for her images, butnot from work!).

See the video here.

Phil Collins:
In The Air Tonight
[Hits]

25 (26) Phil Collins – In The Air Tonight

Brought back into the charts as a result of a man in a gorilla suit playing the drums, all apparentlyadvertising Cadbury’s Dairy Milk.

Surely, the reason people eat Cadbury’s Dairy Milk is because it tastes yummy and it’s the kind of thing thatused to be played during Miami Vice?

Spice Girls: Headlines
[Greatest Hits]

23 (20) Spice Girls – Headlines (Friendship Never Ends)

The Spice Girls return for no particular reason other than to make a shedload of cash from the saps who buy this shit.

Or is it shit? I saw the video and couldn’t remember the song afterwards, not because, say, Posh looked sexy, but because it was just bizarre.

And Geri doesn’t have a six-pack, she has a big flabby belly she’s trying to hold in.

In fact, Mel C looked the most sexy and she had the most clothes on! Whereas Posh looked like she had a top that had been ripped apart by a rabid dog.

And to cap it all, I couldn’t beieve this was a children in Need video!

Britney Spears: Gimme More
[Black Out]

13 (8) Britney Spears – Gimme More

A dreadful comeback at the MTV Music Awards resulted in a most unsexyperformance and you could tell she didn’t even know the words early on as shecovered her mouth. Pass.

“It’s Britney, bitch”? Very enticing… not!

Craig David: Hot Stuff
[Trust Me]

11 (7) Craig David – Hot Stuff

His first single in a long time takes David Bowie’s wonderful 1983 classicLet’s Dance and rapes it for all it’s worth.

Fuck Craig David and fuck his shitty music and just play the original.Compare the two:

Craig David – Hot Stuff

David Bowie – Let’s Dance

Sugababes: About You Now
[Changes]

10 (6) Sugababes – About You Now

Not a bad track, but they’ve done better. Still, at least it stopped Shayne Wardgetting to No.1.

Click here to see the video

Kylie Minogue: 2 Hearts
[X]

4 (12) Kylie Minogue – 2 Hearts

Her comeback single with a Marilyn Monroe look and… well, it’s okay butfar from outstanding.

Click here to see the video

Leona Lewis: Bleeding Love
[Spirit]

1 Leona Lewis – Bleeding Love *4th Week at No.1*

Is this what we’ve waited a whole year to hear? She says she’s spent months inAmerica recording her album with “top producers” but over 10 months afterwinning the contest, will enough people care to give her a long career?

Sure, she’s got a No.1 single and album now while she has appearances on X-Factoron which to promote herself, but will her success last beyond these releases?
