SINGLE REVIEW YOU MADE ME... by SINEAD O'CONNOR
Once again, Ms Controversial releases a single written by someone else - and even Bono's lyrics can't live up to Sinead's expertise.
It's not nearly as powerful as anything by Sinead herself. The hideous dance version includes the now obligatory religious rant and the B-side is eerie enough to pass for Enigma.

So... is it any good or what?

HOW TO HAVE A HIT RECORD
- Form a band with a few friends

- Appear on The Word

I wonder who you're having a go at...
DEAR 'ZINE,
Let the modern mis-guided youth make their own mistakes. Let it be known that when the dust from the nuclear wars between pop and grunge settles, the one true music shall remain. METAL will rule the earth.
Come out of hiding, pop and grungesters, use your own names if you be not ashamed, for I use mine. I salute you.
Conan the Dark Destroyer
Your real name? Weirdo-rama parents!

Grunge? Nah, it's only rock n' roll!
TO ANYONE IN THE TAKE THAT/GRUNGE DEBATE
The whole argument is completely pointless. No matter how much you slag off each other, you're not going to change each other's views.
Let's face it, there's always going to be teeny bands and grunge bands around, so you might as well like 'em - or lump 'em.

Hear, hear. But it is quite amusing...
