Second single from their latest album and this is even more dull than
"Go Let It Out". Not a No.1 and I expect it to sink like a stone next week.
Goodnight Oasis, get some decent tunes and stop ripping off the Beatles.
In November 1997 a band called Coco released a dance track which made scant
impression on the charts (a mere No.39), but was one which received a fair bit
of airplay after it fell out of the chart.
As I wrote in May 1998 when it got a mention as one of my Top 50 singles of
1997, I noted that "In these days of dance tracks being endlessly rereleased
I hope this one comes out again soon...as long as they leave it as it is though."
The good news is that this is the same track. The bad news is that it's been
remixed to the point where the background music that made it special has been
removed and now replaced with something that completely goes against the grain.
A perfect example of turning good to shit.
This single is the 13th in a row to go straight in at No.1.

Yes, despite his failings since and that the only job he can get these days
is as guest presenter on Channel 5's "Exclusive", I quite enjoyed his first
single which made No.5 in June last year.
He played Coronation Street's second Nick Tilsley and the track was produced
by Pete Waterman. It certainly shows it but that said it's rather good. He
could be our answer to Jason Donovan, in the nice way of producing jolly pop
tunes, and not in the bad way of becoming a drug addict and being accused of
being gay.
It was followed up by two singles that didn't perform as well, Everything
My Heart Desires (No.15, Oct 99) and Best Thing (No.25, Feb 2000),
as well as an album Good Times, which experienced none of those going
straight in at No.41 in October last year and then falling out of the chart
never to return...
If you think he made a mistake to leave a top soap for pop stardom, just wait
until you have to endure the shite offered by Sid Owen (aka Eastenders'
Ricky Butcher).
The end bit :
Well, that's it for now. If you want to be added to the Widescreen
