Wait Shakespears Sister was someone from Bananarama??? I somehow never knew that and never would have guessed it.
'Frozen'  I'm not a massive fan of Madonna but that is one of my favourite songs of all time, I actually didn't even know it was a Madonna song for a long time.

This week we go back to 1978, it is now 40 years since this classic made it to #1 (fitting that this coincidences with IWD too, being the first female self-written song to make #1)
QUOTE Kate Bush's Wuthering Heights was a big moment in the history of the Official Chart. Not only did it kick off the influential singer-songwriter's career in rather spectacular fashion, she became the first female artist to land at Number 1 single in the UK with a self-written song; proving it wasn't just men who were capable of turning out hit singles. Kate’s debut single was based on the classic novel by Emily Bronte, a violent tale of unrequited love, jealousy and quite a lot of death. Legend has it Kate hadn’t even read the book when she wrote the song, but, unlike us in our English Literature exam, she got away with it. Kate was just 19 when she landed at Number 1 on the Official Singles Chart with Wuthering Heights, knocking Abba's three-week leader Take A Chance On Me off the top. It spent four weeks in pole position and remains her only chart-topping single; the closest she's come since is with 1985's Number 3-peaking Running Up That Hill. It's success endures in the streaming era, racking up 8.6 million plays across all major services since records began in summer 2014. Elsewhere in the Top 40 that week 40 years ago, Blondie were riding high with Denis at Number 5, and Gerry Rafferty's signature soft-rock smash Baker Street entered the Top 10 at Number 8. Further down, future Number 1 Matchstalk Men and Matchstalk Cats and Dogs by Brian and Michael was the week's high climber at Number 18, a tribute to artist L.S. Lowry. Finally, famous to a newer generation of listener as the theme music to BBC's Mock The Week, The Jam's News of the World made its Top 40 debut at Number 38.

This is also the chart for the week I was born. #old
Some greats in there though. Obviously Wuthering Heights, Baker Street, Every 1's A Winner, Love Is Like Oxygen, Follow You Follow Me. And All Right Now although of course that was already an old song then. Pity Shot By Both Sides and Lovely Day had just dropped out of the chart really. |

time to bring this thread back...
 http://www.officialcharts.com/chart-news/o...-little__22990/ QUOTE With years of keen TV talent show viewing behind us, we know only too well that very often, the runners-up can go on to have a more successful career. Back in 2002, however, not being picked as the winner was seen as the kiss of death. When Popstars finalists Kelli, Michelle, Tony, Kevin, and Jessica weren't selected to be in the handpicked pop group Hear'Say, it looked like the end of the road. They didn't give up, however, and came together to form Liberty, and all was going pretty well as they went Top 5 with debut hit Thinking It over, until yet another setback – the name Liberty was already taken by a different band. The dream appeared to be over, until the plucky quintet whacked an X on the end of their bandname, donned some of the tightest PVC ever seen on the face of the Earth, and released an instant pop classic. Just A Little was fortunate to come when edgier pop was beginning to dominate: Sugababes had just scored a huge comeback Number 1 with Freak Like Me and Holly Valance had scored a smash with the quirky Kiss Kiss, and the public were looking for songs that had, well, just a little bit more… First-week sales were huuuuuge, with 153,000 copies flying off the shelves – Just A Little has sold 530,000 copies, and amassed 3.47 million streams since we started counting in 2014. Elsewhere in the Top 40, Enrique was highest new entry at 3 with Escape, Fat Joe and Ashanti's What's Luv was new at 4, and Pink's Don't Let Me Get Me was new at 6, while trance outfit Milk Inc were in at 9. Other new entries included A1 at 11, Eurovision hopeful Jessica Garlick – herself a graduate of TV talent show Pop Idol – at 13, and Luck & Neat at 31. That's a total of 564,700 chart units by the way. Quite like the song myself and it gets bonus points for kicking Ronan Keating off #1.

The OCC also revealed on their twitter that 'If Tomorrow Never Comes' sold 561,000 copies (presumably excluding streams, of which there can't be too many because the song hasn't been certified Platinum yet).
'Just a Little' is such a throwback jam, still listen to it a lot today and holds a lot of nostalgia.

http://www.officialcharts.com/chart-news/n...-the-top__9493/ QUOTE There was a time when the UK record-buying public were known for their fondness for a novelty record. It’s one of the few places in the world where a cartoon character can score a million-seller or a huge foam monster with googly eyes can land a Christmas Number 1. Further proof of Brits’ sense of humour came in summer 2005, when one of the biggest rock acts in the world had Number 1 snatched from them by… well, an animated frog. But this was no ordinary frog. Instead of a lily pad and a penchant for eating flies, Crazy Frog was more into wearing a motorcycle helmet and proudly letting his wedding tackle hang out for all to see. Originally known as The Annoying Thing – which less kind people would say was a stunningly accurate name – Crazy Frog advertised ringtones for sale (hello 2000s!) and his own inimitable siren’s call. “A ring ding ding…” and so it continued into all eternity. To capitalise on Crazy Frog’s cult status, he launched a pop career, starting off with a new version of Axel F, originally a Number 2 hit for Harold Faltermeyer in 1985 and reappearing in the Top 10 once more in 1995 for dance outfit Clock (7). Only Crazy Frog could take it to Number 1, however, which he did today in 2005, and very likely totally ruining Coldplay’s weekend. Coldplay were staging their big comeback after a couple of years away following the huge success of second album A Rush Of Blood To The Head. Their opener was Speed Of Sound, which would have been a cert for the top spot any other week of the year, and while they’d topped the Official Albums Chart, the band had yet to score a Number 1 single. And to be honest, it wasn’t really a close race. Crazy Frog trounced his chart rivals, outselling Coldplay by over 113,000 copies. We’re sure Chris and the gang’s concern was only brief – their new album X&Y was a smash soon after. Axel F spent an astonishing four weeks at Number 1, and has now sold over 588,000 copies, finally deposed by 2Pac and Elton John’s Ghetto Gospel. Since 2014, Axel F has been streamed 2.1 million times, tipped its sales total to over 600,000, meaning it is now a Platinum certified single. Coldplay would have to wait three more years until their first Number 1 on the Official Singles Chart when Viva La Vida would do the biz for them. Crazy Frog would go on to have four more Top 40 hits – honestly, this really happened – last gracing the charts in 2006 with a cover (read: decimation) of Wham’s Last Christmas. See where all of Crazy Frog's singles charted here. Elsewhere on the Top 40 this week in 2005, Amerie (now Ameriie) landed her first UK Top 10 with 1 Thing, and Gwen Stefani's fourth solo single Hollaback Girl was new at Number 8, breaking a run of Number 4 peaks achieved by her previous releases. Meanwhile, Nancy Sinatra bagged her first Top 40 for over 30 years as a guest feature on Audio Bullys re-working of Shot You Down, and further down, there were new entries from pop-rockers The Magic Numbers, My Chemical Romance, Arcade Fire and more. I do kinda enjoy 'Axel F'.

I remember listening to the chart show on that particular week in 2005, they exceptionally mentioned the #41 at the beginning and played a clip on it just to rip the piss out of Daniel Bedingfield.

'Axel F' is a bit of a guilty pleasure for me as well
 gosh it was so inescapable at the time! I wasn't aware that it had so many YouTube views though  that enduring impact *_* this was a great time for music, my second favourite song of all time ('Feel Good Inc.') is in the top 10 for starters *.* also love 'Speed Of Sound', 'Lyla', 'Shot You Down', 'Don't Phunk With My Heart', 'Signs', 'Owner Of A Lonely Heart', 'Switch', 'Everyday I Love You Less And Less', 'In My Arms', 'Touch My Fire' and 'Other Side Of The World' from the top 40  (maybe we could have plug sessions counting back from 40-1 for some of these chart flashbacks en el futuro when the Now sessions are complete ;o) |

http://www.officialcharts.com/chart-news/o...-to-life__4536/ QUOTE Summer 2003 may have been a scorcher, but a mighty chill was being felt across the Official Singles Chart. The cause? American band Evanescence, whose spooky goth-rock-pop stomper Bring Me To Life swooped in at Number 1. Evanescence were an unlikely proposition - the Arkanas group's brand of Christian rock wasn't exactly a regular occurrence on the UK charts - but their unique blend of singer Amy Lee's ethereal soprano with head-bashing serrated guitar crunches turned out to be the perfect antidote to the scorching weather. Appetite for the single was so great that Bring Me To Life spent three weeks in the lower end of the Top 100 on import sales alone, before charging to Number 1 on its official UK release week, shifting 57,000 copies. The climb ended R Kelly's four-week stint at the top with his global smash Ignition (Remix), which had seen off fierce challenges from Girls Aloud’s No Good Advice, Justin Timberlake’s Rock Your Body and S Club’s Say Goodbye, who all had to settle for Number 2. Thanks in part to its inclusion on the Daredevil soundtrack, Evanescence's Bring Me To Life proved too strong for R Kelly. To date, its sales stand at 745,000, and it's racked up 21 million plays on streaming services since records began in 2014. Elsewhere in the Official Singles Chart this week in 2003, formidable duo Busta Rhymes and Mariah Carey were at Number 3 with the surprise summer hit I Know What You Want (Mariah's first Top 3 hit in three years), S Club were at Number 4 with their double A-side swansong Say Goodbye/Love Ain’t Gonna Wait For You, and the Top 5 was completed by a new entry from Michigan comedy rockers Electric Six with Gay Bar - the follow-up to their Number 2 hit Danger! High Voltage. There were also new entries in the Top 10 for Shania Twain's Forever And For Always (6), and Popstars: The Rivals winners (also also losers) One True Voice entered at 10 with what would be their final single, Shakespeare's (Way With) Words. That's 955k combined units for it. On its way to a million. Good to hear, I always liked that song.

"Bring Me To Life" is such a classic, I remember when I wanted to purchase the single but could only find the album "Fallen" so I bought that instead. One of the first albums I bought and had ZERO regrets. I just remember summer 2003 being really hot and just rocking out to the album.

God I loved 2003 great summer too, I remember hearing Blu cantrell's breathe months before and no one knowing what I was going on about.
It was a surprise number one if I recall but I was so happy! |

QUOTE(Danny89 @ Jun 8 2018, 06:54 PM) God I loved 2003 great summer too, I remember hearing Blu cantrell's breathe months before and no one knowing what I was going on about. It was a surprise number one if I recall but I was so happy! I actually don't remember if radio 1 played it that much prior to its release I don't think so, but I remember seeing the video a lot on kiss TV music channel back when you had to call up for your fav videos. I remember reading the midweeks and being shocked at how well it was doing. I genuinely though it would peak at number #17 or something. LOL Yeah maybe Sean Paul had a lot to do with it's success, but it was still amazing the how well it did. I certainly didn't expect it to stay at No. 1 for a month, so maybe airplay on Radio 1 did increase. Lumidee was number 2 behind it, another surprise hit. |
