Looking back to 1991`s singles, seems like yesterday. I seem to remember the Help A London Child song, that March...by Pat & Mick of course was "Gimee Some" the old Brendon hit, and another all over the air was The Adventures Of Stevie V with "Jealousy"...2 national flops, I believe.

Don`t forget to tune in to the Superstation this Sunday at 4pm http://www.thesuperstation.info when Jason Scott spins the complete 40, that is just that little bit ahead of R1, and the show is presented like a chart show, and not some chat show...Shall we send a dictionary to Radio One, and a P45 to Reggie Yates! :lol:

Any idea what kind of lead Boyzone have over The GORILLAZ, looks like its going to be a tough fight next week with all those strong releases.

Edited by Time out

Avatar is still #1 at Box Office :o.

 

Finally saw it on Monday in 3D at the IMAX. Not surprised, it's epic :wub:

Music really is $h!t atm :(

Alice In Wonderland will take down Avatar!

Just saw that we're on for 10 entries in the top 40 this week. It's like 1999 :o
Also intersting that the top 40 is split. 50-50 download only/physicals [for now anyway].

Ridin' Solo could just fall short though - it's fallen about 8 places on iTunes since yesterday!

I've noticed that since the beginning of the year, I had to add a small icon to my own charts on my database, so I know what's available on physical/download or not. The chart will soon be a download chart. -_- :(

If I take a sneaky guess...I would definately say Boyzone will top the album chart next week, as it tops every pre-order shop chart.

omg im sick of rihanna constantly reaching number 2 :(

Edited by Jmh123

Music really is $h!t atm :(

 

I agree 100%. How come the decent stuff is not doing as well. Mostly generic noisy RNB or crappy dance rubbish. I like a fair bit of RNB & Dance music but curerently at the moment them genres are hardly offering anything good,it seems they'll buy any old rubbish now. It disgraces me what the UK have put at no.1 for the past few weeks and this week. Like Tinie Tempah :puke2:

Edited by Alberto Joy

omg im sick of rihanna constantly reaching number 2 :(

Umbrella was 10 weeks long number 1 :heehee:

 

But I agree that neither of her best songs have reached number 1 :(

Umbrella is her best song :P [in my opinion and to date anyway].

 

But I agree with the majority that the likes of 'Pon De Replay', 'SOS', 'Disturbia', 'Russian Roulette', heck throw in 'Don't Stop The Music', 'Shut Up & Drive' and 'Hate That I Love You' as well! They all should've been #1 *nods*
