These were the new entries in the Dutch Top 40 that never made the UK Top 40:
Tokyo Ghetto Pussy - I Kiss Your Lips
Tokyo Ghetto Pussy had just the one Top 40 hit in both the UK and Holland. In the UK we'd got "Everybody (On The Floor)" in September but this failed to reach the Top 40 when released in early 1996 with it's appearance on TOTP2 seemingly not helping with the sales. It's a happy hardcore record which you may think comes from Japan based on who it's by, but it's actually German. It's an alias of Jam & Spoon.
Roxette - You Don't Understand Me
I've always thought of Roxette as being an 80s act but in the UK they only had 1 Top 40 hit in the 80s with the bulk coming in the early 90s. Prior to their last original Top 40 hit with "Wish I Could Fly" in 1999 their final UK Top 40 hit came at the end of 1994. In Holland they managed one more Top 40 hit before going the same way.
