This week’s choice was an impulse decision and I’m not entirely sure how I came to it. I think I must have heard another Neneh Cherry song on the radio and started thinking about this one - it was a busy day. At least the local cheese radio still has some use, if not only to annoy me.

So, it’s ‘Neneh Cherry & Youssou N’Dour - 7 Seconds’ which got to number 3 in 1994. When I watched the video I thought it was around 97 or 98, seems I was wrong… again!

I finally got Justice’s first album (Cross) last week, and it’s fantastic. A couple of the tracks I’d already heard; ‘D.A.N.C.E.’ and ‘Waters of Nazareth’, which are obviously already favourites of mine. However, some of the new tracks are becoming my favourites, too; ‘Phantom’, ‘DVNO’ and ‘Tthhee Ppaarrttyy’ in particular. The latter (and ‘One Minute to Midnight’) reminds me of John Carpenter music, mainly because of the keyboard/synthesizer in it. I might be the only person to think that, but The Thing was on TV last night and it kept reminding me of it. I definitely recommend it to anyone who might have a similar taste in music to me.
