18.- Live - Insomnia And The Hole In The Universe
19.- Blur - 1992 (DEBUT)
20.- Smashing Pumpkins - Behold! The Night Mare (DEBUT)

"Hang" is a pretty sparse ballad placed at the end of Matchbox 20 debut album. Portishead were still trying to get another 'hit' in my chart, this time with "Sour Times". Then, at 19 it's a Blur song that I have no idea what it sounds like, my mind apparently has erased it completely from my memory, the song is "1992". And finally at 20, a Smashing Pumpkins song that from the beginning had no chances at making a lasting impression.

18.- Portishead - Humming/Western Eyes (DEBUT)
19.- Massive Attack & Horace Andy - Man Next Door
20.- Garbage - You Look So Fine (DEBUT)

More DMB! "Pig" enters at 16. And a failed pair of songs debut also this week at 18, Portishead with "Humming/Western Eyes" which failed miserably at achieving something, they fell off the chart very soon, you'll see. And Garbage debuts at 20, yes, garbage! as the song "You Look So Fine" enters at 20. I can't believe I even liked them one time, but this song fails even worse at making a good run than Portishead.

18.- Madonna - Nothing Really Matters
19.- Céline Dion - Sur Le Même Bateau (DEBUT)
20.- Björk - Unravel

The trademark song for Garth Brooks, "The Dance", makes appearance here debuting at number 10, a beautiful country ballad, recently (December 2006) covered by one of my still favorite bands Westlife, but if they keep releasing more covers albums... sorry, let's return to the chart. Céline Dion here accomplishes something that she would never accomplish again (at least not until July 2007), taking one of her songs to number one here in my chart. It's cool that it was this song, as this one remains my favorite one from her catalog, just gorgeous.

19.- PJ Harvey - Electric Light (DEBUT)
20.- Robbie Williams - No Regrets

Another Garth song debuts, this time "Callin' Baton Rouge", a great song if you ask me, country music at its finest. And a position below, PJ Harvey debuts with the eerie "Electric Light", a wonderful slow song from her best album (in my opinion) "Is This Desire?".

Chart 205

18.- Shania Twain - Man! I Feel Like A Woman!
19.- Sheryl Crow - Members Only (DEBUT)
20.- DC Talk - Mind's Eye/In The Light (DEBUT)

I bought "Double Live" by Garth Brooks around this time, and I loved it. Not knowing much about Garth, I picked the best songs and they started to clog the chart jajajaja. "Standing Outside The Fire" achieves the highest debut this week and it's from the "In Pieces" album. At 19 we see that... Sheryl with "Members Only". And finally at 20, another one of those double songs I liked to use (many many more of these will arrive the chart very soon) DC Talk with a couple of great songs "Mind's Eye" and "In The Light". They're a christian band, but who cares as long as they make good music.

The 18 weeks run at number one of Dave Matthews Band ended here, where they allow REM to conquer the top again, this time with "At My Most Beautiful". At 16, Live debuts with "Insomnia And The Hole In The Universe", Ed Kowaczyck says in the dvd for "Awake" (a compilation) that he still doesn't know what most of the songs on "Secret Samadhi" are about... WHAT?? Whatever! I like them. At 17, yet another Dave Matthews Band song, this time the catchy single "Ants Marching". And at 20, the pop singer with flourishes of country Shania Twain, enters with a so so song, leaning towards bad.

18.- Björk - All Is Full Of Love (DEBUT)
19.- Axelle Red - Elle Danse Seule (DEBUT)
20.- Jordan Knight - Give It To You

At 18, Björk debuts with the fifth single from her "Homogenic" album, the song "All Is Full Of Love". The song released with the video was much better than the simplistic and flat album version, which, while not terrible or anything, was really forgettable. Oh yeah, the video included two lesbian robots! And at 19 Axelle Red enters with "Elle Danse Seule". Even since then, I was drawn to international music, which built up to this day, when I have began a french top 20 every week!! Ahh, isn't it cool?... Oh yeah, ummm Axelle...

20.- Jordan Knight - Give It To You (DEBUT)

Aww, poor Tori, I was naive and foolish that I didn't get how good she was back then, so she slides from 13 to 17. Anyway, Dave Matthews Band were still thrilling me, so at 18 they debut with "Pay For What you Get". And at 20, a former New Kid On The Block, Jordan Knight with a catchy song called "Give It To You"

20.- Natalie Imbruglia - Impressed

REM, after the success in my chart, released "Lotus" a good song, but it was this one "At My Most Beautiful" the 3rd single, the one who brought them back to the list... even if they still were not done with "Daysleeper/Why Not Smile". And at 19, Céline Dion enters with "On Ne Change Pas" a beautiful song. Later, in 2006, Céline would release a french compilation that is called like that "On Ne Change Pas".

19.- New Radicals - You Get What You Give
20.- Five - It's The Things You Do (DEBUT)

Awww, another boyband! I love those groups :D This time was Five, or 5ive... oh well. I recently learned that this song that debuts at 20, "It's The Things You Do", was released as a single only for America and didn't get a release on the UK, which was kinda cool, as the song is really nice. Of course, the US only like urban music, so this song didn't open the market for Five. And how horrible is to see Sheryl at number two?? Yeah, don't tell me, I have to live with it.
