Scottish kitsch-dance producer, Calvin Harris, burst on to the UK music scene with his tongue-in-cheek single, "Acceptable In The 80s", which reached number 10 in the UK singles chart. A blend of retro synth sounds, and knowing lyrics it set the template for Harris' debut full length, I CREATED DISCO, released in June 2007. The album was preceded by Harris' second single, "The Girls", which upping the ante with it's ironic claims of sexual attractiveness--set to a synth sample from the Human League--the single shot top number 3 in the single charts. - HMV

Pitbull, Calvin, La Roux all on their way out.

 

I really, really hate this Jade Ewen track. :puke:

My Man is really great. They put Jade in Sugababes to start finally a career for her. She flopped as a solo artist.

Has more than a passing reselmbelence to a Beyonce song!
Not too surprised at Jade's debut. I was hoping for much higher though.
Glad Jade made it :w00t:
So relieved Jade made top 40! Obviously should be about 30 places higher, but not too bad all the same.
Jade would have been far higher had they not cancelled all of her promo for this week I think.

Lady GaGa is a dance-pop singer from New York City. Born Stefani Germanotta in Yonkers in 1986, she attended the Tisch School of the Arts at NYU while performing at open-mic nights around the city. An early collaboration with rapper/producer Akon led to her signing with Interscope Records, which released her debut album THE FAME in October 2008. She scored a number one hit and a Grammy nomination with her ode to lost, drunken nights, "Just Dance." The song went on to top the charts in several other countries, helping GaGa to develop an international following. The vocalist made headlines at the 2009 Brit Awards when she, along with Brandon Flowers of the Killers, performed with the Pet Shop Boys on a medley of the synth-pop duo's hits, including the classic "West End Girls." - HMV

hehe he read my text. Go Jade!

 

New audio beds for the top 40 this week which is what I was expecting, but if anything they're not as good as the old ones. It still doesn't sound like a chart show should. Oh well! He does sound a bit more professional with the flu though..

Paparazzi still hanging on.

Interesting to see that 'Young Forever' actually managed to climb this week.
