WELL, it seems that the King is not dead after all, but is alive, well and at number one -- which, you've got to admit, is one hell of a comeback.
Having managed a second week at number one, you can bet that we will be seeing more tunes from beyond the grave in future months.
Oasis have also returned from a kind of death -- releasing their second storming track, Stop Crying Your Heart Out, but only managed to reach number two. However, things might change there. The song was featured on World Cup Coverage when the England team got knocked out of the tournament and since then there have been loads of more requests for the song, so there is a good chance that they might jump that extra place after all. It's a top tune, so they well deserve it.
Another song to look out for is Anyone Of Us, the new song by Gareth Gates which, thankfully, is not a cover version of a golden oldie, although it does sound alarmingly like it wouldn't go amiss in a Eurovision song contest.
Mind you, I'm sure it won't stop his fan base running out and buying it in their droves, which will probably see the spiky-haired youngster getting his second number one this year.
I am still moving house, which is turning out to be far more stressful than working! I've been so busy, in fact, that I have only just managed to catch up on the latest news from Big Brother -- though I am pleased to see that Jade is as daft a ever, and somehow Alex the moaner has still not managed to be voted out!
I will be back into the swing of things this weekend with a Djing stint at 21 Picadilly on Saturday and at Square Bar in Peter Street, Manchester, on Saturday. If you are out and about, I'll catch you there.
