Chart Track Commentary

 

Great Day For Ryan

 

With Adele’s reign at the top of the Album Chart stretching to 14 weeks, Monaghan singer/songwriter Ryan Sheridan mounts a formidable challenge this week, landing at No2 with his debut album ‘The Day You Live Forever’.

 

The next new entry is at No8 for the latest Glee release ‘The Warblers’, the tenth Top 30 Glee album and the seventh to make the Top 10. Sade has the third new entry at No12 with her ‘Ultimate Collection’, arriving at the same spot as her previous album ‘Soldier Of Love’ in February last year. Her previous compilation ‘The Best Of Sade’ was released in 1994 when it reached No6. The fourth newcomer this week is actor/musician Hugh Laurie, whose tribute to New Orleans blues ‘Let Them Talk’ debuts at No14.

 

There’s no change at the top of the Singles Chart this week, with LMFAO taking a fourth week at No1 with ‘Party Rock Anthem’ while Jennifer Lopez holds at No2 for a fourth week with ‘On The Floor’ (feat. Pitbull). After their success in the second semi-final qualifier, Eurovision hopefuls Jedward move back up eight places from No11 to No3 with ‘Lipstick’, ahead of tomorrow night’s Final. With his previous single ‘Sweat’ down from No5 to No8, David Guetta chalks up yet another major hit this week with ‘Where Them Girls At’ (feat. Flo Rida & Nicki Minaj) leaping from No15 to No5 – his eighth Top 5 single in Ireland in less than two years. Lady Gaga takes two tracks from her forthcoming second album into the Top 10: ‘Judas’ reverses back from No22 to No9 while ‘The Edge Of Glory’ is new at No10.

 

Shakyfan's Commentary

 

A great result for Jedward as their Eurovision entry rebounds into the Top 10 on it's 13th week in the chart. A possible 2nd number 1 for the twins next week?

 

Also a great week for the independent music sector with the Top 4 biggest selling albums released on independent labels.

 

GO JEDWARD!

Edited by Shaky Fan

Also just had a look at their chart run there... they must surely be one of the best selling singles of the year so far :o

Chart Track Commentary

 

Jedward's Chart Consolation

 

This time last year, Germany won the Eurovision Song Contest and their winning song ‘Satellite’ debuted at No2 on the Irish Charts for Lena, well ahead of Niamh Kavanagh’s song for Ireland ‘It’s For You’ which peaked at No8. This year it’s a different story: Jedward’s ‘Lipstick’ rockets to No1 while Azerbaijan’s winning entry ‘Running Scared’ by Ell & Nikki enters the chart at a lowly No41.

 

This is Jedward’s second No1 single in Ireland (following ‘Under Pressure’). Originally released three months ago when it debuted at No2, ‘Lipstick’ has remained firmly inside the Top 20 in the intervening weeks. The second most successful ESC 2011 song this week is for A Friend In London with ‘New Tomorrow’ representing Denmark and landing at No9 on this week’s chart. Beyond Eurovision, the other big story of the week is the ubiquitous Lady Gaga: ahead of the release of her second album she launches a fourth single ‘Hair’ which debuts at No14, joining ‘Judas’ (No8), ‘The Edge Of Glory’ (No12) and the title track ‘Born This Way’ (No18) in this week’s Top 20.

 

Adele takes a 15th week at No1 on the Album Chart with ‘21’, and once again the nearest challenger is her previous album ‘19’. With Ryan Sheridan’s ‘The Day You Live Forever’ down one place to No3, Kate Bush has the highest new entry at No4 with ‘Director’s Cut’ – her first release since ‘Aerial’ which debuted and peaked at No6 back in 2005. Jedward’s ‘Planet Jedward’ is a re-entry at No12 - propelled by their performance in Düsseldorf on Saturday, they register their highest position on this chart since September last year.

Pretty great to see A Friend In London get a top ten hit in Ireland, got to be their first international hit!

 

Good to see the UK entry in the Irish charts as well, probably doesn't happen all too often these days! Anyone have any stats of how often it has happened in the 00's, if at all?

Thanks, didn't realise Scooch charted there :lol:

 

Shame Gina G wasn't a bigger hit! Not that #6 is bad, but it's transcended Eurovision in the UK to become a bonafide 90s classic.

Last year I reported that the 2010 compilation was the highest charting of the Eurovision albums released since 2000. This week it's peak position of 5 is bettered by

 

the 2011 album which climbs to number 2.

 

Back in 2002 we had a Top 20 compilation chart published. By 2003 it was a Top 25 as was the case in 2004 and 2005. It increased to a Top 30 before the 2006 contest.

 

The 2002 album didn't make the Top 20

Last year I reported that the 2010 compilation was the highest charting of the Eurovision albums released since 2000. This week it's peak position of 5 is bettered by the 2011 album which climbs to number 2.

 

Back in 2002 we had a Top 20 compilation chart published. By 2003 it was a Top 25 as was the case in 2004 and 2005. It increased to a Top 30 before the 2006 contest.

 

The 2002 album didn't make the Top 20

Chart Track Commentary

 

First Lady

 

There are no surprises this week as Lady Gaga lands at No 1 on the Album Chart with her eagerly-anticipated second album ‘Born This Way’. Her debut album is a hard act to follow: since release in January 2009 ‘The Fame’ has spent 8 weeks at No 1 and has taken up permanent residence in the Top 50 throughout this time.

 

Adele makes way for the new No1, slipping to No 2 and No 3 with ‘21’ and ‘19’, ahead of Ryan Sheridan’s ‘The Day You Live Forever’, down from No 3 to No 4. Ryan’s Rubyworks label-mates The Minutes have this week’s next new entry at No 16 with their debut album ‘Marcata’, three years after the release of their first single ‘Harmonic’ which reached No 36. The Prodigy also score a Top 30 new entry at No 28 with ‘World’s On Fire’, their first live album and first release since 2009’s ‘Invaders Must Die’.

 

Jedward take a second week at No 1 on the Singles Chart with ‘Lipstick’ but Pitbull is snapping at their heels with ‘Give Me Everything’ (feat. Ne-Yo, Afrojack & Nayer), up from No 4 to No 2. There’s good progress for Aloe Blacc’s ‘Need A Dollar’ (up from No 15 to No 9) and Swedish House Mafia’s ‘Save the World’ (up from No 19 to No 11), ahead of this week’s two Top 20 newcomers: Black Eyed Peas ‘Don’t Stop The Party’ at No 16 and The Saturdays ‘Notorious’ at No 19.

Re 68 Kings of Leon - Because of The Times

 

Kings of Leon headlined at Slane this weekend - expect big climbs next week!

 

Edited by Shaky Fan

Ooh, World's On Fire at #28. Good to see The Prodigy have a fanbase in Ireland (even if a #28 Irish smash amounts to probably about 50 people at most :lol:)

Edited by Bray

Jedward take a second week at No1 on the Singles Chart with ‘Lipstick’

 

Do you mean 2 weeks in a row and 2 weeks total? :unsure:

Chart Track Commentary

 

Pitbull Gets The Top Prize

 

After a steady seven week climb up the Singles Chart, Pitbull (feat. Ne-Yo, Afrojack & Nayer) reaches the summit this week with ‘Give Me Everything’ – up a place from last week’s No2. Although he has appeared on two previous No1 hits – Jennifer Lopez’s ‘On The Floor’ and Alexandra Burke’s ‘All Night Long’, this is his first Irish No1 in his own right.

 

Jedward drop a place from No1 to No2 with ‘Lipstick’ while LMFAO’s ‘Party Rock Anthem’ holds steady at No3. Aloe Blacc continues his climb up the Chart taking ‘I Need A Dollar’ into the Top 5 at No4 while Jennifer Lopez & Pitbull drop a place to No5 with ‘On The Floor ‘. This week’s highest new entry is awarded to Jason Derulo who debuts in the Top 10 at No9 with ‘Don’t Wanna Go Home’ – not quite a match for his best showing in this chart for 2010’s ‘In My Head’ which debuted at No3. Bressie (a.k.a Niall Breslin – one time member of The Blizzards) makes his first solo appearance in the Chart as his debut single ‘Can’t Stay Young Forever’ enters at No14.

 

Lady Gaga holds firmly onto the top spot in this week’s Album Chart taking a second week at No1 with ‘Born This Way’ followed again by Adele at Nos 2 & 3 with ‘21’ and ‘19’. The Glee Cast claim this week’s highest new entry as ‘The Music: Vol 6’ enters the Chart at No 4 while Ryan Sheridan drops a place with ‘The Day You Live Forever’ completing the Top 5. Gemma Hayes takes the next new entry with her fourth studio album – ‘Let It Break’ which enters the Chart at No11 – one place better than her last release – 2008’s ‘The Hollow Of Morning’ which debuted at No12 while Pearl Jam’s Eddie Vedder sees his second solo release ‘Ukulele Songs’ come into the top twenty at No13. Seasick Steve completes the new entries into the Twenty as his fifth studio release ‘You Can’t Teach An Old Dog New Tricks’ enters at No18.

Chart Track Commentary

 

Adele’s ‘21’ returns to the top of the Album Chart this week, swapping places with Lady Gaga’s ‘Born This Way’ which drops to No2 after two weeks on top - which means Arctic Monkeys are denied a fourth consecutive No1 as ‘Suck It And See’ lands at No3. Their first release ‘Whatever People Say I Am, That’s What I’m Not’ became the fastest selling debut album ever in Ireland in 2006 (although overtaken by Leona Lewis ‘Spirit’ the following year). The follow-up ‘Favourite Worst Nightmare’ resided at No1 for three weeks in 2007 and their third album ‘Humbug’ spent a week on top in 2009.

 

Thirty-three years after it was originally recorded, Rory Gallagher’s ‘Notes From San Francisco’ finally gets a posthumous release this week and debuts at No5 – his highest chart position since 2005’s ‘Big Guns: The Very Best Of’ reached No2 on the tenth anniversary of his passing. The third and final new entry in this week’s Top 20 is for ‘America’s Got Talent’ runner-up Jackie Evancho, who enters at No16 with her crossover-classical selection ‘Dream With Me’.

 

Pitbull holds on to the No1 spot for a second week on this week’s Singles Chart with ‘Give Me Everything’ while Aloe Blacc’s ‘I Need A Dollar’ moves closer to the top – up to No2 from last week’s No4. Example takes this week’s highest new entry with ‘Changed The Way You Kiss Me’ entering at No6 and in the process gets his best chart placing on the Singles Chart to date, surpassing his 2010 hit ‘Kickstarts’ which reached No8. Coldplay provide the only ‘rock’ track in a Top 30 dominated by pop/R&B, claiming the next new entry with ‘Every Teardrop Is A Waterfall’, the first track to be taken from their forthcoming fifth album, entering at No16 – nearly a match for their last single ‘Christmas Lights’ which peaked at No15 last December.

I actually could not be less interested in the charts at the moment, 2011 is turning out to be an incredibly slow year for music, just like last year :(
