A couple of interesting new entries at peak, and not featured on the show:
ReplyDeleteNo.13 - 2 Eivissa - Oh La La La
Not quite in the realm of Kool & The Gang's similar 1982 song title of Ooh La La La (Let's Go Dancing), however we got a small bit of 2-Eivissa across the Top 20 countdown, and looks like a sexy video worth a watch on YouTube.
No.22 The Rolling Stones - Anybody Seen My Baby?
Good Lord, still releasing new singles in 1997!
The Rolling Stones video features a young Angelina Jolie before she was famous.

ReplyDeleteThanks Rob!!!
Deletethanks as always
DeleteFascinating to learn about the extremely limited pressing of 'Joga' Angelo. I had no idea about that and for me it's one of the singles of 1997 and of the late '90s. Her performance on 'Later With Jools Holland' of the song is one of the greatest music TV moments of the decade and left me gobsmacked when I saw it. Fortunately it's available in stereo splendour on her 'Homogenic, Live' album.
