17th September 2017

It's the Pet Shop Boys gorgeous Footsteps on top, a 1999 album track that should have been a single, but in those days I only allowed one album track per album to chart - these days I'm going with around 3, and Nightlife made the charts again recently, so that's an excuse to finally get it on top, as it would have done in late '99 had I changed my chart rules. That's a 44th topper, and one not far behind from the same album at 4.

The late Glen Campbell makes the top 10 47 years since the first time (it topped my chart in 1970), and Katy Perry finally goes top 10 after 14 weeks on my chart, Swish! Thirty Seconds From Mars, the band of The Joker, at least the Suicide Squad version, is the highest entry at 19. Any DC comics connection is good enough for me! ZAYN and Sia rocket up to 30, and Sparks get 2 new entries, the best new tracks off Hippopotamus, which was getting heavily pushed on posters all over Copenhagen back in July, so a bit of a wait! Suedey entered Edith Piaf into Buzzjack Song Contest, and had it been the studio version it would have done much better. Sparks, 43 years of charting here and still going strong.

don't mind the PSB invasion these tracks are quite good...
good to see 30STM entering high, it's a good track although ' the kill' is their best for me...

great chart!

Thanks Toffo, I was abig fan of the album tracks back in the day, better than some of the singles off the Nightlife album.

I must check out The Kill!

Evangeline is a grower, I dont understand how it failed to make the final in the BJSC, it's brilliant...

cheers!
