Chig’s Choon (this week)


Nice Weather For Ducks – Lemon Jelly
Also winning the prize for best cover artwork this week is this slice of pure madness from Lemon Jelly. (I keep imagining that Lemon Jelly is an early 90s indie supergroup fusion of The Lemonheads and Jellyfish, but no.) ‘Nice Weather For Ducks’ is just bonkers. The cover notes say that the second track, ‘Soft’, “unsurprisingly, contains elements from the Chicago recording ‘If You Leave Me Now”, written by Peter Cetera”. They’re not bloody kidding. It’s more a cut-up remix of the Chicago #1 than a brand new track. Has to be heard to be believed. Chig has discovered that this two track single is the best so far this year for falling asleep to in his brand new bedside CD/radio/alarm combo type thingy. So now you know what Chig gets up to late at night.

Pointless prediction: #20
Actual chart entry position: #16
