7 I WOULDN'T BLAME YOUR RADIO - Stereophonics Performance and Cocktails
8 SHE'S SO HIGH - Tal Bachman
9 TELL ME IT'S REAL - K-Ci and JoJo
10 1999 - Binary Finary

It's all new in this month's 10, with Pearl Jam, 702 and Christina Aguilera graduating to the main countdown. Moloco can hope to follow in their footsteps, while K-Ci and JoJo and Tal Bachman both hit without a UK release - for the former act, without a UK release date. Binary Finary come back with a remix of last year's hit, cunningly retitled to avoid being called "1998 '99".
