Posted November 18, 201212 yr A new number one, new singer, old blues style, lovely singer: Kristina Train. Train get 3 Top 5's in a row, this time with a country track. Not "country" as in Taylor Swift (ie not remotely like country music, just pop), but country as in proper old-fashioned country pop. Soul from Bobby Womack goes Top 10 along with Bananarama's cover (for 30 years of Top 10 hits), and Lana Del Ray's new hit (her 6th Top 10 inside 12 months). As Ive already bought the album though, I'm not buying it again, not even for the new track - it's time consumers rebelled against the record companies sneaky marketing to make you buy albums twice and made them release a brand new album with 12 decent tracks on instead. In olden days pop stars used to do that each year. Ska inside the Top 20 from No Doubt and (sort-of) Madness (thats 33 years of Top 20's) and Poly Styrene for the reggae. Highest new entry is New Radicals 90's classic, possibly the best record of that decade. It's already a big Number One in my charts, but has recharted in the OCC Archive Top 40 - a perfect excuse to let it back in! Not so many new hits entering high so oldies get to move up and enter, though Donald Fagen is back - better known as part of Steely Dan, he extends his run of hits to 40 years. 1 8 1 2 DARK BLACK Kristina Train 218000 2 2 1 9 DISCONNECTED Keane 1005000 3 1 1 6 RUN BOY RUN Woodkid 632000 4 9 4 15 HEROES David Bowie 318400 5 29 5 5 BRUISES Train/ Ashley Monroe 126100 6 3 3 3 I FOUND YOU The Wanted 149500 7 4 1 17 SOME NIGHTS fun. 1293500 8 24 8 3 PLEASE FORGIVE MY HEART Bobby Womack 84100 9 18 9 5 MOVES LIKE JAGGER Bananarama 122300 10 44 10 6 RIDE Lana Del Ray 106550 11 13 9 4 BENEATH YOUR BEAUTIFUL Labrinth/ Emili Sande 137000 12 5 5 7 SKYFALL Adele 301200 13 10 10 3 LATCH Disclosure/Sam Smith 95000 14 7 1 16 LITTLE TALKS Of Monsters And Men 1354400 15 6 6 10 CANDY Robbie Williams 269850 16 16 16 8 PUSH AND SHOVE No Doubt/Busy Signal/Major Lazer 167300 17 17 17 15 (I'M NOT YOUR) STEPPIN' STONE The Monkees 222150 18 36 18 5 MY GIRL 2 Madness 70400 19 11 8 8 ONE MORE NIGHT Maroon 5 192800 20 39 20 2 BLACK CHRISTMAS Poly Styrene 37100 21 14 10 5 DON'T YOU WORRY CHILD Swedish House Mafia/ John Martin 128200 22 22 22 5 CHILDLIKE MEN (JEEPSTER) T.Rex 92100 23 12 12 5 WONDER Naughty Boy/ Emeli Sande 94850 24 30 24 5 LET'S HAVE A KIKI Scissor Sisters 83700 25 25 25 2 ONE DAY/RECKONING SONG Asaf Avidan & The Mojos 37500 26 26 26 2 RADIOACTIVE Imagine Dragons 37000 27 27 7 6 BLUE VELVET Lana Del Ray 167800 28 19 19 6 CARRY ON fun 110000 29 51 29 2 RUNAWAY Gemma Ray 29950 30 RE 30 3 PUT YOUR HANDS UP Matchbox 20 52400 31 15 9 6 REQUIEM IN DENIM AND LEOPARDSKIN Pet Shop Boys 196900 32 49 32 2 TRY P!nk 29800 33 40 33 6 VAVA VOOM Nicki Minaj 63300 34 34 34 6 SWEET NOTHING Calvin Harris/ Florence Welch 85500 35 new 35 1 YOU GET WHAT YOU GIVE New Radicals 17500 36 21 10 7 BACKTRACK Rebecca Ferguson 173750 37 37 18 9 GANGNAM STYLE PSY 138400 38 38 38 3 SOMETHING NEW Girls Aloud 51600 39 20 10 8 FLOWER (ABBEY ROAD SESSION) Kylie Minogue 149850 40 46 40 11 I DON'T KNOW HOW TO LOVE HIM Yvonne Elliman 113400 41 23 4 16 GOOD TIMES Owl City/ Carly Rae Jepson 561650 42 42 20 5 DOOM AND GLOOM The Rolling Stones 75900 43 43 43 8 NEVER TEAR US APART INXS 89550 44 31 3 18 BLOW ME (ONE LAST KISS) P!nk 704750 45 41 3 12 HOW DO I GET TO CARNEGIE HALL?

November 19, 201212 yr Hi, John! :) Great Chart as always and i love your No.1! Never heard Kristina Train before. This song is really great! And i think it sounds right ...for a Xmas Number One (even though it was released in September). Nice to find David Bowie at No.4 in your Chart and Madness at 18. Can't believe "Love Me Do" turns 50 this month! I heard that all the "Beatles" catalogue was re-released on vynil as limited edition last week.

Glad you like Kristina Train, youre right it does have a christmassy vibe to it:) I also cant believe Love Me Do is 50, it doesnt seem more than a few years since it was recharting in 1982 on 20th anniversary reissue! I dont know about the vinyl reissues, though LOve Me Do made the Archive Top 40 last week so it likely is out again... thanks! john
