1 hit wonder. " Everybody needs a bosom for a pillow" . I remember hearing this a lot in early 1998. Cool song.

Here in America, "Brimful of Asha" was a hit on alternative rock radio. In England, it was a #1 smash thanks to a remix by Norman "Fatboy Slim" Cook. The "Asha" in the song refers to Asha Bhosle, a well-known Indian singer.

Cornershop *did* have a follow-up, "Sleep on the Left Side" which peaked at #23 in England and also was a minor hit on alternative radio here in America.
