Here's what to expect for next week:
* A "brand-new" #1 video.
* A countdown debut from the Princess of Pop (esp. according to her stans) featuring the Queen of Pop (and no, I don't think they actually kiss in this video, but they do try!).
* Another debut from one of the founders of the Lilith Fair festival, in a bathtub!
* And, of course, two videos have to leave the countdown (if only they hadn't spent so much time talking about their day or what's falling on them...).

This is slightly off-topic, but for all you countdown geeks (like myself), Tori Amos' "A Sorta Fairytale" had debuted a week before the first countdown of 2003, if any of you would like to know.
Excellent debuts, especially Sarah McLachlan and Jason Mraz
But Liz Phair leaving the countdown... That song was one of the ones that defined 2003 for me!!
Here's what to expect for next week:
* A BRAND-NEW #1 video (already!?).
* Two countdown debuts, both of which are cover songs, including:
>> One a The Who cover, featuring Halle Berry (from Gothika) in the video.
>> The other a Talk Talk cover, featuring the lead singer killing off her bandmates in the video.
* And, of course, two videos leave the countdown, whose titles coincidentally both end with the same word (the L-word).

* (I know, I know... Not that exciting, but I had nothing to work with here!)
