Hmmm... as far as I know, Moments Of Pleasure had the following chart
positions:

     Moments of Pleasure:
        UK (gallup): 26 (93-11-22), 32 (93-11-29)
        UK (MW Single): 32 (93-12-04), 51 (93-12-11)
        UK (MW Radio Play): 34 (93-12-04), 33 (93-12-11)
        UK (ITV Network): 34 (93-12-04), 40 (93-12-11)

Highest UK positions of the other TRS singles were: RbG - 12, TRS - 21, TMIL - 22
(not really a TRS single, but in the timeframe), ASIL - 26.

Sorry, but it seems the book is right (I got the information a) from Homeground
and b) from the charts themselves, as seen on MTV Europe).

Bye,

Uli
