Commentary

There’s almost some excitement in my chart this week, as Infernal crash in at 3 with ‘Self Control’, the amazing follow up to ‘From Paris to Berlin’. This of course means no move at the top for the camptastic Scissor Sisters at Number 1 for a seventh week, and also, rather neatly, gives Snow Patrol seven weeks at Number 2 as well. Evanescence rise to Number 5 with ‘Call Me When You’re Sober’, The Killers to Number 9 with the vaguely disappointing ‘When You Were Young’ and The Automatic score a Top 10 hit with the cool ‘Recover’.

There are five other new entries in this bumper week, the first from Girls Aloud at Number 14 with the rather fab ‘Something Kinda Oooh’. Its good to see them back on top form. The Beatfreakz return with ‘Superfreak’ at Number 16, The Pussycat Dolls don’t need any men at Number 17, Bob Sinclar wants to rock your Party at Number 19 and finally The Ordinary Boys are lonely at the top. Awwww.
