And further back we go, into the very edges of the twenty-first century. In 2002 this was at number 38.

Title: “Poor Leno”
Artist: Röyksopp
Nationality: Norwegian
Genre: Electronica, Progressive House
Written by: Svein Berge, Torbjørn Brundtland, Erlend Øye
Original release date: December 3 2001
Highest chart position (at time of writing): 38
Chart position (at time of writing): 38
Progress, if any, at time of writing: None; new entry and its highest position anyway
From the album: Melody A.M.
What do I know about this artist? Nothing
What do I think of this single? It’s okay. Has a nice beat to it though the singing is a little drony and the video that accompanies it and tells the story is somewhat upsetting.
What have I learned about this single? Very little. It was used in some videogame (SSX 3). It was originally released in 2001 where it did even more poorly, getting only to 59. Didn’t exactly set the charts alight the second time either, entering at 38, and going no further. Not sure why they bothered to be honest.
My rating: B
