 Hmm, good to see Kate on top, might as well say she's 'darling of the century',
though. I'm amused to see Janet Jackson at the bottom. Whoever nominated Nina
Hagen and Cher for 'darling of the year' must be really sick. But the world of pop
music is full of sick people. Good thing we have r.m.g. to turn to when we're fed
up with MTV.
 BTW, I think we already have a record of the year: Under The Pink. Need I say
more????
