    Of this week’s highlights and lowlights…

    29 Shawn Colvin – Sunny Came Home * !!!

    For years Shawn Colvin has released singles in this country without gettinga solo Top 40 hit, just a duet with Mary Chapin Carpenter in 1995 when“One Cool Remove” made No.40, but justice will prevail in the end.

    Her current album, “A Few Small Repairs”, was released last year and the single“Get Out Of This House” only made No.70. In July, her record company putback the release of “Sunny Came Home” indefinitely reckoning it wouldn’tget in the Top 60. By cancelling said release they made sure of it!

    Now after some airplay for the track and with country music finally gettingan airing on mainstream radio, Shawn Colvin gets the recognition she deserves.Here’s to many more chart hits!

    18 Collapsed Lung – Eat My Goal

    Footballing song which I’m sure has been released before, but failed to chart,and which has been used in a TV advert for Coca Cola. Not bad to begin with, butit gets a bit irritating.

    14 NYCC – Fight For Your Right (To Party) :O ===

    But doubly-irritating is this dire, pedestrianised cover of the Beastie Boys1987 classic, which loses all the humour of the original and NYCC make it soundlike they want to get it over with instantly.

    1 (2) The Tamperer featuring Maya – Feel It *1st Week at No.1*

    And so the Tamperer climb back up the charts to steal the top slot, but what’sshe going to look like with a chimney on her?

    Dominator’s Top 10 of 1997

    22. Electronic – Second Nature

    Following 1996’s “Forbidden City” and “For You”, this was thethird single from their last album and “Second Nature” only managed tomake No.35, getting almost zero airplay. I loved it though, even if the radiostations didn’t.

    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
