Commentary

An interesting week regarding Personal Charts (26 submitted,a record high so far,albeit beating the
previous record by just 1 chart) with most members starting to count similar songs hence 65 current tunes scoring over 21 points or more.
Embrace 'Natures Law' now starting to lose a little momentum with Mary J Blige ft U2 starting to catch up,
but holding on for a 3rd consecutive week with only a fifteen point advantage.

Shayne Ward the only notable modest climber in the Top 10 edging ever closer towards the Top 3 while
The Kooks are the only Top 10 entry up four places with 'Naive'.
Bizarrely enough,The Editors who seemed to be making good headway towards the Top 5 last week manage to lose total control and plummet out of the Top 40 altogether.
Having checked the personal charts to make sure I've not missed 'All Sparks' from any of the 26 personal charts,it seems that all but 4 of those who members who included the song in their Top 20s last week have dropped the song altogether en masse,hence it's 43 place free-fall from the Top 40 here making it, to date, the biggest faller out of the chart.

One Indie-Rock bands downfall is anothers advantage and this week it's the turn of The Zutons who occupy
the what seems now to be an Indie-Rock stronghold position,like K.T. Tunstall (okay,not Indie-Rock,but guitar based),The Editors & The Kooks before them,climbing up to #11.

Ne*Yo & Shakira guard the Top 10 holding steady at 12 & 13 respectively keeping the highest new entry at bay from the safety of The Buzz Jack Top 10.Infernal 'From Paris to Berlin' is fast becoming a BJ anthem in its own right,debuting high in half a dozen Personal charts this past week to claim a very respectable #14 in its first week here.

The highest climber from Will Young after a slow plod into the Top 30 last week is another tune to watch
out for in the coming weeks,with it's clever Blue Peter mock-video adding to the appeal.
Other notable new entries from Red Hot Chili Peppers,Flaming Lips & Snow Patrol make worthy debuts within the lower half of the chart whilst older tunes from Will Young (3 members charted 'All time Love' possibly from the B.J. 'Will' contingent) & Kanye West score well enough to make The Top 40.

So there's plenty of action in the lower half of the chart,but can any of this weeks 10 New Entries make that
all important climb to #1 ?? As always it's entirely up to you !!

Note : from next week,the B.J. Indie Rock Top 20 (compiled by Mikey) will also be counted towards this particular chart.
