I could only get through half of that video.

Different market buying R&J, most of whom don't normally buy singles.

Yes was very influencial on Everything Must Go. James loved the retro sound of it so he approached Mike Hedges (who produced Yes) to work on EMG.

Single of the year and one of my favourite Britpop singles.

These are my favourites from January but only Flaming June gets me in any way interested. I hated the Lighthouse Family up to this point but somehow I loved High. For a January release that peaked at number 4, it did well to make the end of year top 40.

I kinda want to put more offert into Celebrity Skin and Music has the Rights...

I think i will do that too. Most of what I love that came out in 1998, I didn't hear until later. I got Mansun's Six after hearing Negative but didn't put the effort in. It wasn't until 2000 that I really started to like Six or Mezzanine.

At the beginning of the year I had anticipated new albums by Tori, the Manics and Garbage and those three were the only albums that I purchsed on the day of release. This is My Truth was disappointing. The second half was ruined by a lot of weak songs - I certainly thought so at the time. I also remember not liking If You Tolerate This at all. It was a grower though. From the Choirgirl Hotel was rich and focussed, unlike Boys for Pele which was just wasn't up to the standard of the first 2 albums. I went to a pre-release playback of Version 2.0 and it felt lightweight and poppy compared to Garbage but I still bought it when it came out. It too was a grower and by mid-1999 it was among my favourite albums of the decade. I got The Good Will Out after loving Come Back to What You know and liked most of it. Best of the whole album was That's All Changed Forever. On regular rotation in 1998 were Frozen Brim Full of Asha Ian Brown's Corpses Lucid's I Can't Help Myselt Pure Morning Push It Tsunami Teardrop Sonnet Road Rage My Favourite Game Thank U
