Canned Heat entered the UK singles chart at number 4 yesterday (Sunday). In the mid-week chart it was sitting at number 2 but between Thursday and Saturday, when most singles are bought, it just couldn't keep up the pace. Unfortunately this means that Deeper Underground remains the band's only number 1 single, with Virtual Insanity being their second best - entering the UK chart at number 3 in August 1996.
Today in 1997, Virtual Insanity won the "best pop video" award at the 'Music Week Creative And Design Awards'. Produced by Jonathan Glazer, the video also won awards for best cinematography and special effects.
