It is quite 'funny' how often the #1 song is some Australian shit. I mean.. was the Whitlams' "No Aphrodisiac" REALLY the 'best' song of 1997? And "Buy Me A Pony" by Spiderbait the best song of 1996? (lol I'm showing my age here.. given that I haven't taken note of what has been #1 since 1998 when bloody Offspring topped it). > SFK #2? - is the australian 'alternative' public > really this boring?!? Yes, they are. OK I've never given SFK the time of day and wouldn't know how even *one* of their songs sounded (I don't like their sorta stuff - ie, boring generic Oz pub-rock) so I can't really 'comment'..

And apparently they pull of the whole '70's' thing very well. I don't know becaus eI don't like them or their style, but I see how others could find them simply irresistable.

I've never thought of that before.. But now you mention it, yeah it does sound quite Linger-esque.

OMG those RAINN concert audience members were more embarrassing than Tori herself on that vid ;) Gotta love that chick who mimes the "can you believe that?" line looking all affected and such. And the girl with braids and buck teeth. (are they one and the same?) > Adam - the maths nerd that somehow made it 'big'. Oh that guy thinks he's some fucking maths genius. Wow so he did post-grad maths or something... and then got a job as a DJ? Gee, musta been good ;) Einstein need not feel threatened. Also.. can't stand how Adam does that pseudo-emphysemic laugh after every "funny" line that Will or whichever drongo is on the breakfast show says. He is going to ruin his lungs. Although I'm sure he is quite 'approachable'. Still.. doesn't make up for being a lousy-esque DJ IMNSHO.

Although Cornflake Girl was #27 in the Hottest 100 of "all time" in 1998 - - no doubt thanks to many Dent voters who obliged.

Hahaha so true. Although I thought the vid for "Why Don't You Get a Job" was tres cool. The thing about Tori Amos she did not seem to bowl a lot of people over - i.e. she SUCKS... "hey Bose lets write another song... remember to look at the whiteboard for the key words to use... "religion sucks, I'm pushing 40, rape, "men and periods" suck... etc. etc. That's all she has to write and falls right into the hands of every man-hating lesbian and computer nerd out there with-out taste sporting $3000 (for the Baltimore single) to burn. :P Nathan. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ I Have Jesus's body nailed to a cross on my apartment wall.
