Here we go, another of my favourite singles of 98, this is so funny, so cool. The video is the best video I've ever seen - it's everything that's British all rolled into one, and even pokes fun at the Verve's Bittersweet Symphony - this time Richard Ashcroft (Denis Penis) is run over by the red car!. The lyrics are amazing, written by Keith Allen, who sings on the record - he alsowrote the smash hit New Order track back in 1990 - World In Motion, and he's in Trainspotting, and he owns, with top British artist Damien Hirst, the Turtle Neck records which published Vindaloo. Damien Hirst has also designed all the artwork, which rules - the sleeve features Damie's teeeth with Vindaloo written on them. In the special limited edition CD (100,000 copies only - buy 'em NOW there's a special CD-Rom video anda free poster featuring a bucket of vindaloo and some red arrors writting vindaloo in the sky. The bass played from Pink Floyd is featured on the record, as is Alex from Blur, and it is gonna sell millions, guarenteed. I love it so much, the words are so cool - cheddar cheese, knitting, tea, and buckets of vindaloo. If this doesn't inspire England to win, then nothing will.

After the success of the 21st biggest selling single of the year - Vindaloo -Keith Allen, Alex James, Damien Hirst, George Dawes & Dennis Penix are joined by Joe Strummer for the unofficial Christmas record.  Unfortunately it is not a patch on the last one, and I seriously doubt it will echo its success.
