6th March 2016 It’s a 41st Number one for Pet Shop Boys, sounding very late 90’s-period PSB’s, smooth EDM. Neil and Chris have never had more than a 2 or 3 year gap between chart-toppers since first doing it over 30 years ago with West End Girls. The previous topper was with Example, it was on a Thursday. Vaults get runners-up with the gorgeous One Last Night, and FKA Twigs grabs her first top 5 with the lovely Good To Love. Highest new entry at 6 is a track to be played at a funeral this week, a track from 2000 that I knew, and loved, but was somehow unable to find out who or what it was. It’s a chill-out classic, you will likely know it, but you may not know that you know it. The orchestral hook is taken from a 1968 Engelbert Humperdinck record and re-worked by Kinobe. So 16 years late it finally charts. Talking of charting at new peaks belatedly, thanks to Deadpool (which I saw again, fab film) Juice Newton’s 1981 minor version (in my charts) of Angel In The Morning enters at 15. It kicks off the movie beautifully, and is a power-country-ballad version of a song that first charted for Mary Mason in 1977 for me. So, 35 years late, it hits a new peak. As does another track from Deadpool, X Gon Give It To Ya, which DMX took to a measly 68 in 2003, but which finally hits the top 40 13 years late. DJ Fresh and Dizzee grab another top 10, as do Mott & Bowie’s Dudes back in the top 10 after a 44-year absence. Sammy Davis Jnr gets his first-ever top 10 hit, 44 years after he was denied The Candy Man doing it (in 1972 I only allowed UK charting singles in my chart, but his USA chart-topper was a fave). Justice at last! Biggest climber is pill popping Mike Posner, the late Viola Beach make my top 30, and Elvis gets If I Can Dream into the chart for a 4th time (albeit a new version), 1969 it went top 5, and most recently in 2007 it also went top 5. New entries outside the 40: All saints are back with One Strike, hooray! Nearly 20 years since they started a run of a dozen hits or so. a-ha are also back lengthening their run to over 30 years, and Kate Bush is back again with This Woman’s Work (thanks to The Voice) which will help it rise inside my top 800 listing (given it away!). 1 2 1 3 THE POP KIDS Pet Shop Boys 302700 2 5 2 3 ONE LAST NIGHT Vaults 202000 3 1 1 8 FADED Alan Walker featuring Iselin Solheim 935000 4 4 4 3 AMANECER Bomba Estereo 149000 5 20 5 3 GOOD TO LOVE FKA Twigs 85600 6 NEW 6 1 SLIP INTO SOMETHING MORE COMFORTABLE Kinobe 55000 7 17 7 4 HOW LOVE BEGINS DJ Fresh & High Contrast featuring Dizzee Rascal 109500 8 12 8 3 NEVER BE LIKE YOU Flume featuring Kai 103000 9 14 9 6 ALL THE YOUNG DUDES (DAVID BOWIE/IAN HUNTER VOCAL LEGACY EDITION) Mott The Hoople featuring David Bowie 164000 10 15 10 3 I’VE GOTTA BE ME Sammy Davis Jr 70400 11 3 3 8 OH!

Hi Jason, thanks - Ive never really tried to list my top 3 PSB's (I think we're overdue a Retro PSB rate!) so many to choose from! I'd prob go for the obvious ones - West End Girls, It's A Sin, What Have I Done or Heart. Or I might slip in a couple of less obvious ones like Left To My Own Devices, or an album track like the gorgeous Footsteps. When the Quickie Rate pops up I'll have to choose the order! Mike Posner future UK number 1 by the look of it! cheers! john |

I had no idea Alan was only 18! Could be the record of 2016 for me... (so far) KING is lovely, though not to be confused with 80's band King unless they take to wearing Doc Martens and have long hair. I'm t'other way round with Beyonce and Coldplay Often love Beyonce's stuff but often very meh about it too, Coldplay I usually love. cheers! john |

Shame VAULTS didn't beat Pet Shop Boys. I quite like the latter's track but it still feels like a lesser version of one of their older songs to me.
Also, how has Florence slipped out of the top 4? She was supposed to be there all year long. ALSO... FORTY ONE number ones? You're obsessed! Do you have a list of them and how many weeks each that you could share? This post has been edited by dandy*: Mar 9 2016, 12:48 PM |

She was supposed to be there all year long. ALSO... FORTY ONE number ones? You're obsessed! Do you have a list of them and how many weeks each that you could share? Hi dandy* thanks for dropping by! PSB's only just beat Vaults but they always have an inbuilt bias loyalty brand advantage going on with me That's possibly why so many of their number one's are one-weekers. You're right it does sound like a lesser version of an older PSB track, but I like it anyway, the lyrics are retro nostalgic which gives it a bit more of an edge for me. Florence dropped cos I didn't play it last week. I know, it's shocking! Plus there's so much competition 6 months in the top 5 was the best I could gift OK, you asked so here's the PSB chart-toppers, all 41 - two of them are as artists on Bowie and Robbie tracks, though they had a good hand in both, but that only compensates for the 2 EP tracks off Before which topped the chart in each of their own right as tracks off the B Sides compilation, but I lumped them together cos I loved them at the time more than the lead track and listed it as an EP at the time. Either way it's 41 different PSB songs, plus 2 as guests, plus 4 as writer-producers for Dusty and Liza. There would be more had I allowed album tracks in the 80's! (Paninaro, One More Chance among many): West End Girls Pet Shop Boys 3 Opportunities (Let's Make Lots Of Money) Pet Shop Boys 3 Suburbia Pet Shop Boys 3 It's A Sin Pet Shop Boys 3 What Have I Done (To Deserve This) Pet Shop Boys/ Dusty Springfield 5 Always On My Mind Pet Shop Boys 3 Heart Pet Shop Boys 5 Domino Dancing Pet Shop Boys 1 Left To My Own Devices Pet Shop Boys 1 It's Alright Pet Shop Boys 1 So Hard Pet Shop Boys 1 Being Boring Pet Shop Boys 1 Where The Streets Have No Name-Can't Take My Eyes Off You/How Can You Expect To Be Taken Seriously Pet Shop Boys 4 Can You Forgive Her Pet Shop Boys 5 Go West Pet Shop Boys 5 I Wouldn't Normally Do This Kind Of Thing Pet Shop Boys 1 Liberation Pet Shop Boys 1 Yesterday When I Was Mad Pet Shop Boys 4 Hallo Spaceboy David Bowie/ Pet Shop Boys 3 Before/ The Truck Driver & His Mate/ Hit & Miss Pet Shop Boys 3 Se A Vida Es Pet Shop Boys 2 Single Pet Shop Boys 2 A Red Letter Day Pet Shop Boys 1 I Don't Know What You Want But I Can't Take It Anymore Pet Shop Boys 1 You Only Tell Me You Love Me When You're Drunk Pet Shop Boys 2 Miracles Pet Shop Boys 2 I Didn't Get Where I Am Today Pet Shop Boys 1 I'm With Stupid Pet Shop Boys 1 Numb Pet Shop Boys 2 Integral Pet Shop Boys 2 Girls Don't Cry Pet Shop Boys 1 She's Madonna Robbie Williams/ Pet Shop Boys 1 Love etc Pet Shop Boys 1 More Than A Dream Pet Shop Boys 4 Did You See Me Coming Pet Shop Boys 3 All Over The World Pet Shop Boys 2 "A Certain ""Je Ne Sais Quoi"" Pet Shop Boys 1 I Started A Joke Pet Shop Boys 1 Love Is A Bourgeois Construct Pet Shop Boys 1 Thursday Pet Shop Boys featuring Example 1 The Pop Kids Pet Shop Boys 1 |

Thanks for listing them! A few of those are before my chart began but I'm pretty certain that It's a Sin, What Have I Done To Deserve This, Always On My Mind and (especially) Left To My Own Devices would have been #1s for me. That would leave their list looking like this for me:
01 It's a Sin 01 What Have I Done To Deserve This 01 Always On My Mind 01 Left To My Own Devices 01 So Hard 01 Can You Forgive Her? 01 Go West 01 I Wouldn't Normally Do This Kind Of Thing 01 I Don't Know What You Want But I Can't Give It Anymore 01 I Get Along 01 Minimal 01 Integral Whilst not up there with your 41, I'd agree they have sustained a particularly high level of quality considering how long they've been around. Although how did the fabulous Minimal not make #1 for you when the AWFUL Numb did! |

Although how did the fabulous Minimal not make #1 for you when the AWFUL Numb did! Thanks dandy* A good run of number ones there, though I Get Along never really hit me big and So Hard is one of their lesser singles of the period (I'm more fond of earlier tracks that didnt top my chart then these days, like Rent, Love Comes Quickly). Minimal went top 5, but just not quite up there for me. Numb was special, I changed my opinion completely on it from first hearing it to loving the depressing sweeping orchestral vibe - one of the rare non-originals, Diane Warren convinced them to record one of her songs and it was used over the England team's bowing out of the World Cup closing credits along with a montage of players and fans, the effect was amazing. Plus the lyrics meant a lot to me at the time....(sadly!) |
