29th October 2017
Even later than usual this week, life is so manic I barely have time to breathe. Anyway Hurts get a second chart-topper in 3 weeks with the lovely sultry Wait Up, it's their 4th in total. Pet Shop Boys, the other prolific duo in my chart, go to 3 with the tropical laid-back gorgeousness of Between Two Islands. The tracks they didn't put on the Release album would have made a much more satisfying (if very varied) album than the actual sparse laid-back album itself. Another duo have a big climb - Tears For Fears get a first top 20 hit with new material in 12 years, and stretch over 35 years. Highest new entry is a debut for classic album track Immigrant Song, Led Zep's banger that has never been a single, but is now featured strongly in Thor: Ragnarok to great effect and now belatedly charts here for a rare Led Zep single entry (they didn't release singles so they never qualified until I changed my rules). Marlon Roudette is back with another goodie, at 18, and Noel Gallagher pushes out his kid brother from my chart with his Mott The Hoople-ish glamstomper (It's very The Golden Age Of Rock 'n' Roll crossed with Rocky Martin's She Bangs). Matt maltese debuts with a haunting track, as does Rex Orange County with a sweet one, and Elkie Brooks returns with another 2017 entry and 40 years on from Sunshine After The Rain going top 10. 1 2 1 5 WAIT UP Hurts 448000 2 1 1 8 MY KINGDOM (WILLIAM BLACK REMIX) Evangeline 676650 3 10 3 3 BETWEEN TWO ISLANDS Pet Shop Boys 152000 4 3 1 5 MAGNIFICENT Hurts 635000 5 5 3 5 READY TO GO Hurts 340000 6 4 4 4 GO 2.0 Burak Yeter & Ryan Rybak 187300 7 7 1 9 CRYBABY Paloma Faith 725000 8 8 8 6 BEST FRIEND Sofi Tukker featuring NERVO, The Knocks & Alisa Ueno 193150 9 9 9 7 EDITH PIAF (SAID IT BETTER THAN ME) Sparks 186350 10 18 10 3 SEXY NORTHERNER Pet Shop Boys 83750 11 6 1 8 FOOTSTEPS Pet Shop Boys 792000 12 NEW 12 1 IMMIGRANT SONG Led Zeppelin 35000 13 12 3 8 CLOSER TO HEAVEN Pet Shop Boys 372700 14 40 14 3 I LOVE YOU BUT I’M LOST Tears For Fears 58500 15 17 15 12 BOTH SIDES NOW Glen Campbell 208000 16 24 16 7 LIFE WITH THE MACBETHS Sparks 117600 17 13 3 12 DRINK UP Train 585000 18 NEW 18 1 ULTRA LOVE Marlon Roudette 22000 19 20 19 5 BEAUTIFUL TRAUMA P!nk 89700 20 27 20 3 LOVE HURTS Roy Orbison & The Royal Philharmonic Orchestra 51900 21 11 6 11 GET LOW Zedd & Liam Payne 348500 22 22 14 9 ALL STARS Martin Solveig featuring Alma 173900 23 NEW 23 1 HOLY MOUNTAIN Noel Gallagher’s High Flying Birds 19250 24 16 13 8 DUSK TILL DAWN ZAYN featuring Sia 174400 25 25 25 8 DO IT AGAIN Steely Dan 120750 26 14 10 5 CLOSE TO YOU ARLE 149400 27 19 19 4 WORD UP The BossHoss 79400 28 15 8 12 I HEAR YOU CALLING DJ Licious 290600 29 39 29 2 A DIFFERENT CORNER George Michael 35300 30 30 30 4 SPENT THE DAY IN BED Morrissey 64000 31 21 10 11 RUN FOR COVER The Killers 241650 32 NEW 32 1 COMIC LIFE Matt Maltese 17800 33 36 33 6 ILL RAY (THE KING) Kasabian 62200 34 54 34 2 PRAYING FOR TIME George Michael 28600 35 26 12 9 TALL THIN MEN Pet Shop Boys 230250 36 37 36 4 KAAMOS Tom Fall 56350 37 57 37 3 EVERYTHING IS NEVER ENOUGH (VIDEO MIX) Goldfrapp 33900 38 46 38 3 OH, PRETTY WOMAN Roy Orbison & The Royal Philharmonic Orchestra 40150 39 31 1 15 STILL FEELS LIKE THE FIRST TIME Zoot Woman featuring Kylie Minogue 839100 40 28 4 13 MORE MESS Kungs featuring Olly Murs & Coely 521450 41 29 7 12 NEW RULES Dua Lipa 295750 42 34 1 16 TRUE FEELING Galantis 930650 43 23 18 8 FANTASY George Michael featuring Nile Rodgers 157250 44 56 44 6 HAVANA Camila Cabello featuring Young Thug 47250 45 33 6 10 LIKE AN ANGEL PASSING THROUGH MY ROOM Madonna 294950 46 NEW 46 1 RISING COST OF LOVE Elkie Brooks 12750 47 32 14 7 WALK ON WATER Thirty Seconds To Mars 143100 48 68 48 2 FREEDOM ’90 George Michael 18700 49 41 10 12 WHAT ABOUT US P!nk 270600 50 60 50 3 SAY A PRAYER TIEKS featuring Chaka Khan & Popcaan 27200 51 49 1 17 DREAMS Grace Slick 622850 52 38 27 9 SWINGIN’ WITH MY EYES CLOSED Shania Twain 142800 53 47 19 14 POWER Little Mix featuring Stormzy 220500 54 66 54 2 ROBOT MAN Orchestral Manoeuvres In The Dark 17800 55 55 1 18 TWO FUX Adam Lambert 1042800 56 59 56 2 SILENCE Marshmello featuring Khalid 20700 57 35 35 4 END OF THE LINE The Traveling Wilburys 58000 58 NEW 58 1 LOVING IS EASY Rex Orange County featuring Benny Sings 10200 59 44 9 12 HOLDING ON Dannii Minogue featuring Jason Heerah 254400 60 62 60 5 HEROES David Bowie 38200 61 45 8 20 SWISH SWISH Katy Perry featuring Nicki Minaj 404600 62 51 8 15 ROCKIN’ The Weeknd 364750 63 63 1 33 ALONE AGAIN OR Love 964850 64 42 13 11 REGGAETON LENTO CNCO & Little Mix 221550 65 65 65 2 FATHER FIGURE George Michael 14000 66 50 50 6 MORE THAN FRIENDS James Hype featuring Kelli-Leigh 51000 67 NEW 67 1 SAVOIR FAIRE Beth Ditto 6600 68 67 1 20 SUMMER WINE Nancy Sinatra & Lee Hazelwood 817700 69 43 33 9 DARK NIGHTS Dorothy 125300 70 NEW 70 1 HOW LONG Charlie Puth 6000 71 71 71 2 I KNEW YOU WERE WAITING (FOR ME) George Michael and Aretha Franklin 11600 72 72 72 4 NOBODYS CHILD The Traveling Wilburys 21600 73 73 73 2 FAITH George Michael 10800 74 53 53 5 I THINK IT’S STUPID BUT I THINK IT’S LOVE The RPM’s 39550 75 58 8 16 I’LL BE AROUND Empire Of The Sun 381200 DROP OUTS 48 37 8 WOULDN’T WANNA BE YA YONAKA 92700 52 38 3 TALK OF THIS TOWN Catherine McGrath 41200 61 33 8 DUM DUM Kideko featuring Tiny Tempah and Becky G 91550 64 42 7 CHASING HIGHS Alma 63650 69 69 3 AMERICAN GIRL Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers 17600 70 38 6 TENSION CENTVRIES 73000 74 74 2 FOR WHAT IT’S WORTH Liam Gallagher 10200 75 75 1 CARELESS WHISPER George Michael 5000 |

hurts and psb's still ruling here!
not a bad led track, but marlon and matt pass me by a bit... the elkie track is quite good, very retro! rex orange county is pleasant enough... and noel stomps along quite well, rIcky martin will be pleased! TFF is okay but not a patch on their early stuff... nice tom fall trance! good stuff! |

Good to see a former Suedeonian BJSC entry from Sparks in the top ten
 and the sublime Alone Again Or still clinging on. No sign of this month's entry though  Seems to be fairly Pet Shop Boys-heavy but that's never a bad thing. |

hi john!
this Hurts slayage I like Ready To Go so I should probably give their album a deeper listen, I loved them during the Happiness era!Some great new entries this week, Holy Mountain is still an absolute blast, Loving Is Easy is v lovely indeed (my unknown pleasures entry crossing over!!) and Comic Life too- I've liked most of the Matt Maltese tracks I've heard so far

Yes my charts are Suedonia heavy these days (quite rightly) I haven't heard your new BJSC entry yet, I only just managed to get through semi 1 in time, sadly (which is why none in my charts yet until todays!), but I'm sure it's quality and I will listen to it even if it DNQ's (I always run through the whole semi before voting in the final) cheers! john

I actually love Hurts more as they go on, which is in direct contrast with their sales figures! I didn't get to check out the Unknown Pleasures (or enter) due to lack of time and a hectic life, but you woulda got high points from me (and I wouldnt have been remotely surprised that you entered a quality track). The only reason your BJSC track isn't also in my chart is I did my chart before I got to hear it properly (as in several times) cheers! john |
