Hey there and welcome to this week's Official Buzzjack Hot 40, the chart made up of sales, airplay and the all-important multichart, giving an all round accurate view of the tunes Buzzjackers, and indeed the rest of the country, have been enjoying this week. Owl City could get their third week at number 1 this week, but there are strong challengers from Timbaland and Jedward. So let's check it out!

Sorry to the chart nutters and/or singletons that were looking forward to this chart last night, me and Peter didn't have time to complete and publish it I'm afraid, but here it is now! No change in the big top 5, although Timbaland and Katy and Alicia Keys get a bullet by gaining both on airplay and multichart (Timbaland is this week's new number one there in fact). Iyaz swaps places with Lady Gaga, Marina And The Diamonds go top 10 for the first time with Hollywood (despite falling on sales and multichart, it claims ten places to #29 on airplay). Rihanna's Rude Boy gets it up to #10 from last week's #23, having climbed up on multichart and debuting on airplay, as well as climbing to the same spot on sales.

 

Outside the top 10, Helping Haiti's Everybody Hurts is our highest climber, but despite being #1 on sales, it's a non-mover at #9 on airplay, and debuts at a lowly #57 on multichart. Ke$ha climbs to #12 having climbed top 10 on multichart, and debuted top 40 on airplay. Lady Gaga & Beyonce's Telephone climbs into the top 20 for the first time, having climbed top 30 on airplay, nearly top 5 on multichart, and being a non-mover in the sales top 40.

 

Leona Lewis' I Got You has got her to one spot off the top 20, as it's top 10 on airplay, top 15 on airplay, although it hasn't broken the top 60 on sales yet and Cheryl Cole's Parachute lands her softly as the highest new entry at #27, one place below her current sales position. Ellie Goulding's Starry Eyed is shooting to #28, debuting on airplay this week, despite not yet being available to buy. Glee have two new entries with the girls mashup Halo/Walking On Sunshine at #29 and the boy's equivalent It's My Life/Confession Pt. II at #32, whereas Somebody To Love climbs to #33 having climbed 45 places to #29 on multichart. The chart is rounded off with an airplay only debut from Mary J Blige at #36 and a sales and airplay hit from Calvin Harris at #38.

 

Let's finish off with some videos:

Highest new entry at #27, Cheryl Cole – Parachute

 

New at #29, Glee Cast – Halo / Walking On Sunshine

 

Future big hit? At #36, Mary J Blige - I Am

 

And new at #39, Calvin Harris - You Used To Hold Me

 

Thanks for reading, hope you enjoyed the chart. Next week we'll be back with Peter presenting - honestly :) Have a good one!

I really hope Owl can keep Timbo at bay again, but it's gonna be close.

 

.OWL...TIM

They're EQUAL :o But I guess sales has priority or something?

I will check that with Peter, but I presume that's right. That's how it was in the Bullboard chart days anyway :)

Yes, the chart is weighted slightly towards sales, so Owl City just got number one again, but despite the top of the chart being quite static is was very close between the top 3 this week.

Owl has clearly lost his #1 here now he may still be #1 on airplay, but he'll be #2 max and #5 max on sales and multichart respectively.

 

Timbo looks like he'll be #1 unfortunately... #3 or so on sales, possibility of #1 but top 5 fairly guaranteed on airplay, and #1 on multichart... I just hope Alicia (#4 minimum on sales, top 10 min on airplay and top 3 probably on multichart) can somehow snatch Timbo's #1. Of course, I'd like Owl to remain #1, but he won't...
