Obviously in the first chart in 1952, the whole Top 12 were new entries, but I was wondering what the record was for ALL the top positions from 1 downwards being new entries. For example, has there ever been 1-5 all new entries, or even 1-7, 1-10 etc...

 

Would be great if anyone knew

I'm pretty sure there was a week in the early 2000s where the top 7 were all new entries.

it was actually six

w/e 15/4/00

01. Craig David - Fill Me In

02. Sweet Female Attitude - Flowers

03. Richard Ashcroft - A Song For The Lovers

04. Steps - Deeper Shade Of Blue

05. Bloodhound Gang - The Bad Touch

06. Lock 'n' Load - Blow Ya Mind

 

the number one the previous week was westlife - fool again which fell to 8

 

i'll have a look through chartstats to see if there is any that beat this

I do believe there was one week where the top 7 were all new hits as well.
Not sure if this helps, but I vaguely remember a week in about October 1998 when it was the first time (I think) the top 5 were all new entries. I think Alanis Morissette's Thank You was number 5 that same week, but i'm sure someone out there can correct me if i'm wrong on this!

Yes, that's right:

 

1 Cher - Believe

2 George Michael - Outside

3 U2 - Sweetest Thing

4 Culture Club - I Just Wanna Be Loved

5 Alanis Morissette - Thank You

 

Spacedust - Gym And Tonic fell to #6 from #1.

Interesting that the average age of the artists in the top four that week must have been about 43 :lol: Would NEVER happen now!

Thanks for jogging my memory on the top 5 that week! I'd forgotten about the top 6 week in 2000. Ah, it brings back so many memories haha. Was there really a week when the top 7 were all new entries?

Another (kinda) new Top 6:

 

01. Ciara feat. Petey Pablo - Goodies NE

02. Elvis Presley - A Fool Such As I/I Need Your Love Tonight {2005} NE

03. The Chemical Brothers - Galvanize NE

04. Athlete - Wires NE

05. Feeder - Tumble And Fall NE

06. Lucie Silvas - Breathe In NE

and yeah, I preferred it when there was a bit of variety in the ages of chart stars. Nowadays (with a couple of exceptions), if you're over 30 you're pretty much past it! haha

found another six:

01. Ciara feat. Petey Pablo - Goodies

02. Elvis Presley - A Fool Such As I/I Need Your Love Tonight {2005}

03. The Chemical Brothers - Galvanize

04. Athlete - Wires

05. Feeder - Tumble And Fall

06. Lucie Silvas - Breathe In

damn, someone beat me to it!

Sorry. :lol:

 

Still looking for that new Top 7 (which I'm starting to doubt?). Though I saw a week where there are 7 new songs inside the Top 10.

I think I was thinking of the Ciara week when I thought I remembered a 7, so yeah, I think 6 might be the record

 

But that week wasn't really all new as the #2 was a re-entry... technically it was classed as a new entry but I don't consider it one

six must be the record, if the first time the top 5 was new entries was oct 1998, and i've just checked 1998+ and only found six new entries, then it has to be six :)
There was one week in the 90s, there was 8 new entries in the top 10, I can't remember the week ending chart. Probably someone else can shed more light on it.
7 new entries in the top 10 is definitely the record, and there has never been a week when the top 7 were all new.

Lucie Silvas must have been pretty gutted, she could have had a No. 1 record if she'd released a different week :lol:

i have searched the chartstats from 2000+ and didn't find anything that beat 6

 

IIRC ChartsPlus has covered this before, and an all-new Top 6 is the most they found.

 

Also, 7 is the most NE's in the T10 (C+ #184 5/3/05) - it's happened several times.
