Liz McClarnon:
Woman In Love

5 Liz McClarnon – Woman In Love/I Get The Sweetest Feeling

Never mind the second one, the ex-Atomic Kitten’s cover of Woman in Love as her first solosingle is a perfect example of how to take a classic arrangement with a powerful vocal… and flushit completely down the toilet.

Liz McClarnon skips through the whole thing without emotion, but the saving grace for the video is thatthe bloke shoots himself at the end, so at least HE has a lucky escape.

Meck & Leo Sayer:
Thunder in My Heart Again

1 Meck & Leo Sayer – Thunder In My Heart Again *2nd Week at No.1*

Crappy remix of a Leo Sayer track I don’t recall. Why it’s such a hit I’ve no idea. You’d havethought all the kids who buy this kind of novelty crap would’ve got tired of this practice by now.

Going straight in at No.1, this starts a new run of singles going straightin at No.1:

1. Meck & Leo Sayer – Thunder In My Heart Again
