28th December 1997 - 3rd January 1998With no new entries in the uk this week we had to get a bit creative, #7 Lucky was a December release in France, it should've been released all over because even almost 25 years later it stands up as one of their best songs. More early Electric Six at #33 with
The Ballade of MC Sucka DJ, its a bit raw but classic Dick Valentine with lyrics like "We don’t negotiate, we don’t deliberate, we do most of our talking with our .38s, yeah! We’re running from death row, Domo Arigato Mister Roboto! We do what we do, we won’t not do it, our will is a wall and you can’t shoot through it"
