I don't know about the Corrs, except that they are hugely popular in
Australia - I think they're a commercial pop band with Celtic origins.
>2)Does anyone know about Rufus Wainwright? He falls under the category

The son of Loudon (sp?) Wainwright III and some folk singer from the sixties
whose name eludes me at the moment, and he is GREAT!! His album is a bit
loungy and he appears to be a bit of a crooner in the style of Dean Martin
et al, but he has a voice to die for. I can see him following in Jeff
Buckley's footsteps as a truly fantastic singer-songwriter-composer.
On another note, I really like the new Jimmy Eat World EP. I know it's
actually fairly old, but I wanted to get it cheap, so I only just got it.
It's great. Very different to "Static Returns". What's their new album
like?
I've heard mixed reports about the new Kula Shaker - is it just "K"
revisited? And as far as silverchair v Kula Shaker, I'd take Kula anyday,
but "Neon Ballroom" is very tasty - Nick Launay's production is simply HUGE.
Robbie Williams is shit. Sorry to anyone who likes him, but he's still an
ex-Take That crooner and that's a bloody big sin in my books.
