I built and ran this website between 2000 and 2001, combining passion for popular music and programming. It was listed by MTV's now defunct MusicNewswire as one of the then nascent web's top twenty sources, alongside Billboard and VH1. The most exciting part of it — for a 13/14-year-old excited by new music — was receiving scores of pre-release CDs from record companies. The entire project was written entirely from scratch (frameworks and libraries were not the norm back then!) in PHP linking to a MySQL database, with HTML as well as a little CSS and JavaScript for the frontend; the code is available here.

Radiohead's Highest Ever Singles Chart Position
22 May 2001 | 0:00:00 GMT/UTC

Radiohead's Thom Yorke Radiohead are set for their highest UK single chart position this Sunday. Pyramid Song is likely to enter the chart at Number Two, just under 17,000 copies were sold yesterday (21 May).

In 1997 the bands' Paranoid Android made it to Number Three. However, Kid A topped the album charts on both sides of the Atlantic. Their fifth album, Amnesiac will be released on 4 June.

The likely Number One next Sunday is DJ Pied Piper's Do You Really Like It. Dido's Thankyou (sampled by Eminem on Stan) is likely to enter the chart at Number Four. Musique's U2-sampling New Years Dub will probably enter at Number Thirteen.
