    3 The Tamperer featuring Maya – Feel It

    Take The Jacksons“Can You Feel It”, remove their vocals, and add a rap asthe verse, and you have this, a fairly average dance track.

    1 (1) Run DMC vs. Jason Nevins – It’s Like That *6th Week at No.1*

    So DJ Jason Nevins ruins an old Run DMC track, as well as a forthcomingreworking of a Beastie Boys track, “Hold It Now, Hit It” which appeared on their1987 “Licenced To Ill” album which housed their most well-known hit, “(You’veGotta) Fight For Your Right (To Party)”.

    This single starts off another set of singles going straight to No.1 probably.

    Dominator’s Top 10 of 1997

    17. Brand New Heavies – You Are The Universe

    The Brand New Heavies returned to the music scene last year with a new singer,Siedah Garrett, and this single was the best of the three released in 1997making No.21 in June, and receiving plenty of airplay since.

    The other tracks released last year were “Sometimes” (No.11, April) anda cover version of “You’ve Got A Friend” (No.9, October) which was their firstTop 10 hit, and in my opinion their least worthy single. However, they began1998 in perfect style with the best single of the bunch so far, the title trackfrom their album “Shelter” which made No.31 in the first full week of this year.

    The end bit :

    Well, that’s it for now. If you want to be added to the WidescreenVideo and Laserdisc lists, just mail me atCharts Request to tell me.

    Bye for now,

    Dominator
