72 Six Chix – Only The Women Know

Of this week’s highlights and lowlights…

72 Six Chix – Only The Women KnowSix women from teenage to old age, but it looks like a fashion shoot coveringdifferent ages gone wrong and is a load of feminist tripe.

52 Kelis – Caught Out There :O ===
66 Backstreet Boys – Being Lonely :O ===Two low entries that must be imports because they’re bound to do well,despite both being shite.

18 Jay Z – Anything :O ===Talking of shite, it was bad enough when he ripped apart an Annie tunewith “It’s a Hard Knock Life”. Now he repeats the nonsense with a trackfrom Oliver Twist. Why?

10 Rebecca Wheatley – Stay with me BabyCover version ballad, recently sung in an episode of Casualty as Max’sex-junkie son Frank died of horrific burns. It was a bit cheesy though.

7 Aqua – Cartoon HeroesMore hi-energy Aqua. More crap. The promo reputedly cost 5 million,making the most expensive of the lot. I sincerely hope it didn’t.

5 Shania Twain – Don’t Be Stupid :O ===Country music meets Riverdance, with Plug-ugly screeching all the waythrough it. Pass the sick bag!

3 Christina Aguilera – What a Girl WantsWhat she wants is to put a bit of weight on. She’s becoming the pop industry’sanswer to Ally McBeal.

1 All Saints – Pure Shores * *1st Week at No.1*After a load of rubbish, at least a decent song is at No.1 and this is a softballad from the girls for the film, “The Beach”, starring Leo DiTitanic.

The promo video though has a bizarre effect that does the impossible – itmakes the gorgeous Natalie Appleton look ugly.

This single is the 6th in a row to go straight in at No.1.

1. Westlife – I Have a Dream / Seasons in the Sun

2. Manic Street Preachers – The Masses Against the Classes

3. Britney Spears – Born to Make You Happy

4. Gabrielle – Rise

5. Oasis – Go Let it Out

6. All Saints – Pure Shores

Dominator’s Top 50 of 1999

8. Planet Perfecto featuring Grace – Not Over Yet 99My single of the week at the time, this made No.16 in August last year.It made No.6 in April 1995 in its original form, but still sounds brilliantin this remix, mainly because it reminds me of early 80’s-style music.When are we going to hear something new from her though?

The end bit :

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

Bye for now,

Dominator
