November.
Blah blah Spice Girls blah blah blah
Candle in the Wind blah. Criminal record of the
month, nay year(!), you will doubtless agree has to go to the atrocious
Barbie Girl by current world-wide hit monsters
Aqua.
Much more inspiring was this months surprise package
Natalie Imbruglia , seemingly not forgotten since her stint in
Neighbours a while ago. Unlike most of the actor/actresses turned pop-star situations
though, her single Torn
is a brilliant indie/pop song instead of the usual hit factory b0ll0cks.
Sadly his was also the month Bill Berry
quit REM
(see the News section). But it doesn't do to dwell on these things.
On the 22nd Michael Hutchence
was found dead in his hotel room in Sydney (in true rock star fashion), having apparently hung
himself. No drugs connection as yet but hey, we wouldn't be surprised. I never liked him
but it's sad all the same.
Teenage Fanclub
beam in the sunshine by releasing my personal favourite from the album
Start Again.
To my knowledge it's sold at least two copies so far. It'll be a long long way from the
dizzy hieghts of #16 that they enjoyed not so long ago. Funny that...
Kylie Minogue's
new single
Did it Again
is fantastic, as is the video. Go out and buy it!
