The Top UK Singles in Oct 82

A dodgy song at the top. But what a chart. With the Animals back, & the Beatles beating their number 24 position in 1962 with "Love Me Do" going right to the top 5 some 20 years on. For some reason (which someone might clarify) The Pinkees & Danger Games did not chart at all on the Record Business top 120. Richard Allinson presented the UK Top 30 part on Capital Radio 194, at 2pm every Sunday ahead of the BBC. Although this week in 1982, we were quite lucky because Simon Bates was sitting in for the disaster that was Tommy Vance (hard to believe it took 2 years before they finally removed him). The Line-up of Adrian Juste, Jimmy Savile's Old Record Club, Music Now (with David Jensen, & some new releases), the Great Rock N' Roll Trivia Quiz, the top 40, & Anne Nightingale's Request Show took us through Radio One's schedule on a Sunday. Where as Capital were rather easy going with the likes of Tony Myatt, Richard Allinson, Hullaballoo, Charlie Gillett, Greg Edwards, & also the Sunday Arts Programme "Artbeat".

The Pre-Order Albums this week

01 COME AROUND SWINDON - KINGS OF LEON 18th Oct

02 PROGRESS - TAKE THAT 22nd Nov

03 SEASONS OF MY SOUL - RUMER 1st Nov

04 WIDE AWAKE - JOE MCELDERRY 25th Oct

05 OUTTA THIS WORLD - JLS 22nd Nov

I can see Rumer knocking KOL off the top, during Bonfire Night week. Some say Joe McElderry. Though many have forgotten last Christmas! Don't the lone male vocal winners of X Factor disappear rather quick, unlike the girls? Joe + Shayne = 0! I edge my bets on either Black Eyed Peas or Duffy taking the Christmas Artist number one album. Mind you listening to a Duffy preview last week, I think it's exactly the same as her last output.

 

The Best Selling Physical Singles:

01 01 ROBBIE & GARY

02 NE JOE MCELDERRY

03 03 STATUS QUO

04 02 KYLIE

05 06 CEE LO GREEN

06 05 ENRIQUE & NICOLE

07 04 ALEXANDRA

08 NE KINGS OF LEON

09 08 OLLY MURS

10 07 MORRISEY

 

Wait a mo...& in the meantime see if you can solve this riddle. If you manage It, i'll send you the top 5 mp3 singles free: Why did the rubber duck?

KOL album's called Comes Around Sundown and not Swindon!! :naughty:

 

Do BEP have new album coming out or is it a re-issue of The END? I think Take That will have the top album from week after release right through Christmas. Duffy may displace them for just one week though.

 

EDIT. I see BEP's new album The Beginning is due 29th Nov. :o

Edited by Common Sense

Well last week was quite inaccurate, but looks like The Wanted will be number 1 next week, with N-Dubz top 10

 

JLS assured number 1 then- at least its a decent song this time

) without downloads alone

 

= Chart Show tv position (Sats at 9am)

 

Cee Lo does it again. For some reason it was listed separately on some show called Big Top 40 or summat. Who knows why? Possibly so they could play Robbie at the top last week. Idiots.

Thanks Alan :thumbup:

 

:lol: @ Joe, though missing top 5 completely is a bit harsh :( Any sign of Ou Est Le Swimming Pool in the top 75 albums?

if Joe charts at 6 on sunday, that surely has to be one of the lowest charting positions a winner or runner up from XF has charted with their first single as an artist :o
Delighted to see Gary and Robbie still number 1 in the phyisicals and Kylie still top 5. Great to see EastEnders still ahead of corrie in the ratings.

:unsure:

Rather ruins Tobacco Road that one! Seems that we're doing some Googling! Don't think your find the answer that way.

 

Does no one, know the answer to the riddle?

 

I'll give a little longer. Its rather a play on words & was always popping up in the 70s.

LOL at Joe and he couldn't muster a #1 physical :lol: his physicals must be non-existant.
SHM & Tinie actually climbing? Didn't see that coming :o

Edited by ~ braysephone ~

I wouldnt say JLS beating Take That is certainty just yet as TT are now ahead of JLS on HMV pre-ordered (although I realise its not the only way to look at pre-orders) so it still could be anybodys.

 

Cheryl vs Rihanna is going to be an exciting week, Cheryl I'm certainly will get the #1 but I reckon Rihanna wont be far behind.

It be tragic for Rihanna to be the curse of the #2 again, how many hits will that be now peaking at #2, I've lost count.

She's had 7 so far, including the T.I. and Eminem collaborations.

Eight if OG(ITW) peaks at #2.

 

She currently has 5 solo #2s (Pon De Replay, S.O.S, Unfaithful, Russian Roulette and Rude Boy) and two as a featured artist (Live Your Life with T.I. and Love The Way You Lie with Eminem).

 

This is easily made up for by having one of the longest running #1s ever (Umbrella), as well as one more solo #1 (Take A Bow) and one as a featured artist (Run This Town with Jay-Z) though.

Why did the rubber duck?

 

Because, it saw the zip fly! :lol:

Thanks, she must be the unluckiest artist to peak at #2. With "Only Girl" to add at some point
