This could be a good thing to bet on because the bookies have no clue whatsoever about music. They have installed Kate Winslet as favorite and Robbie second. THEY ARE WRONG.<br>Most skinflints buy NOW albums which features Kates song. Robbie has already released his album so whats the point on buying the single. so its left to these to fight it out. Yes your right, the novelty hits.<br><br>DJ OTZI has already been a chart-topper with the awful Hey Baby. On Sunday he looks like scoring a top 10 entry ON IMPORT ALONE. This is unprecendented. Most popular imports of the last few years have been Shaggys It Wasnt Me and Lou Begas Mambo NO.5 but they only got into the 30's. So the future looks bleak when it is officially released. His album is released on the 3rd December over here officially so thatll shift well in December. But hes releasing too early to be a Xmas No.1<br><br>HERMES HOUSE BAND is from the same stable as DJ OTZI taking a country song and raving it up. This has been ignored by Radio 1 but on every other station you cant hide from it. A very good chance <br><br>ALCAZAR with cheap video in toe and lyrics about Richard Geres tie! sample a hit from Shiela B Devotion to make a very retro but VERY CATCHY song. This will be in top 5 on Xmas chart and will in the chart for 3 months<br><br>but the biggest tip is this<br><br>THE BLAGGERS with 15 PINTS. Now no official release has been given but this will be huge especially at parties. This has all the hallmarks of classic Xmas trashy number 1 a la Mr Blobby and Shakin Stevens. But watch it disappear as quick as it appears.<br><br>call me MYSTIC UGLYBOB<br>* johnny and his peach shite<br>
