Posted March 17, 201312 yr It was close but Olly Murs just kept ahead of Fall Out Boy, meanwhile Royksopp finally get into my 10, it's a grower, ditto Ellie and No Doubt - who get their first Top 10 for 10 years or so. Beach Boys were in my first ever chart (1968) so nice to see an oldie in there. Big climbs for Simple Minds, over 30 years of Top 20 hits, and new entry for veteran Agnetha (Abba) Faltskog, 39 years after her waterloo debut. I watched them at Eurovision 1974 while I was getting cash babysitting. I loved them instantly, and have never wavered since. Hooray! Also back is Eurovision Bonnie Tyler, 37 years after her first Top 10 hit Lost In France. Meanwhile a few chart hits that haven't really grabbed me, suddenly start to sound catchy to me and climb belatedly or enter. better late than never. If I was allowed to listen to radio at work I'm sure they would have peaked earlier....:) 1 1 1 4 ARMY OF TWO Olly Murs 375000 2 7 2 5 MY SONGS KNOW WHAT YOU DID IN THE DARK Fall Out Boy 300000 3 5 3 4 MIRRORS Justin Timberlake 260000 4 2 1 11 STAY Rihanna/Mikky Ekko 1135000 5 6 5 6 YOU'RE NOT RIGHT FOR ME Emilia Mitiku 256000 6 3 2 7 SKIRTS The Other Tribe 430500 7 14 7 6 EXPLOSIONS Ellie Goulding 150400 8 20 8 7 RUNNING TO THE SEA Royksopp/ Susanne Sundfor 134100 9 15 9 24 HELP ME RHONDA The Beach Boys 374350 10 17 10 6 LOOKING HOT No Doubt 136000 11 4 4 2 EVERYWHERE Fleetwood Mac 102000 12 13 8 6 SUPER RICH KIDS Frank Ocean 179000 13 19 13 6 SEEN IT ALL Jake Bugg 122750 14 10 3 9 SUIT AND TIE Justin Timberlake/ Jay Z 467500 15 16 15 7 MERMAID Train 143550 16 12 1 10 CUT COPY ME Petula Clark 667000 17 18 17 22 YOUR MOTHER SHOULD KNOW The Beatles 307400 18 39 18 3 BROKEN GLASS PARK Simple Minds 46100 19 8 2 8 LEARN TO LOVE AGAIN Lawson 649000 20 26 20 6 JUST GIVE ME A REASON Pink/ Nate Ruess 85500 21 9 9 7 WINGS Haerts 181750 22 11 6 7 BE A BOY Robbie Williams 279500 23 25 23 4 WHEN I WAS YOUR MAN Bruno Mars 60900 24 21 14 7 IF YOU'RE NEVER GONNA MOVE Jessie Ware 143750 25 27 25 14 FANNY (BE TENDER WITH MY LOVE) The Bee Gees 173400 26 37 26 2 THE STARS (ARE OUT TONIGHT) David Bowie 35800 27 24 5 10 GREEN GARDEN Laura Mvula 351700 28 23 23 7 CAN'T PRETEND Tom Odell 121050 29 NEW 29 1 WHEN YOU REALLY LOVED SOMEONE Agnetha Faltskog 18200 30 32 30 2 EVERYONE SAYS "HI" Claudia Brucken 35800 31 22 8 8 BLACK SHEEP Gin Wigmore 275400 32 33 32 3 ONE WAY OR ANOTHER Blondie 53100 33 62 33 6 MAGNETIC EYES Matrix/ Futurebound/ Baby Blue 71000 34 28 28 3 STICKS AND STONES Arlissa 46100 35 38 35 4 BEACH San Cisco 68900 36 36 36 5 WHITE NOISE Disclosure/ Alunageorge 57200 37 40 37 6 BECAUSE WE CAN Bon Jovi 74300 38 46 38 2 THE PROUD ONE The Four Seasons 29950 39 74 39 2 POMPEII Bastille 22300 40 NEW 40 1 BELIEVE IN ME Bonnie Tyler 17000 41 29 29 4 WE DON'T PLAY GUITARS Chicks On Speed/ Peaches 67300 42 30 14 9 BACK IN YOUR ARMS AGAIN (NICO MIX) The Mavericks 133150 43 35 1 22 DON'T YOU WORRY CHILD Swedish House Mafia/ John Martin 1026650 44 44 44 2 SACRILEGE The Yeah Yeah Yeahs 26500 45 RE 5 16 SKYFALL Adele 463850 46 NEW 46 1 BLIND Hurts 12750 47 42 3 17 MEMORY OF THE FUTURE (SINGLE REMIX) Pet Shop Boys 599500 48 56 48 2 ROCK YOUR BODY Justin Timberlake 22900 49 41 1 10 THE SWEET HELLO THE SAD GOODBYE (REMIX) Roxette 534000 50 73 50 2 STEAL MY SUNSHINE Len 17400 51 34 34 4 I COULD BE THE ONE Avicii/ Nicky Romero 49850 52 47 9 13 NEVER KNEW YOUR NAME Madness 295000 53 45 10 11 SCREAM AND SHOUT will.i.am/ Britney Spears 229150 54 31 24 7 HARD TIMES Daniel Pearson 112600 55 43 43 3 RADIOACTIVE Rita Ora 30900 56 60 56 6 PYT (PRETTY YOUNG THING) Michael Jackson 45300 57 64 37 7 MIRACLE Hurts 88900 58 65 58 5 THREE LITTLE BIRDS Bob Marley & The Wailers 34200 59 53 9 21 BENEATH YOUR BEAUTIFUL Labrinth/ Emeli Sande 390500 60 67 60 4 I FEEL THE EARTH MOVE Carole King 27000 61 61 1 60 SOMEBODY THAT I USED TO KNOW Gotye/Kimbra 1823750 62 54 5 12 LIGHT THE NIGHT Andy Burrows 375500 63 63 1 94 GOD ONLY KNOWS The Beach Boys 1792250 64 69 64 3 I DON'T WANT TO KNOW Fleetwood Mac 18300 65 NEW 65 1 THRIFT SHOP Mackelmore / Ryan Lewis/ Wanz 7000 66 71 66 2 LOVE SHACK B52's 12600 67 55 6 19 TRY P!nk 552600 68 68 1 113 BAKER STREET Gerry Rafferty 2102850 69 NEW 69 1 AFRICA Toto 6200 70 NEW 70 1 READY OR NOT Bridgit Mendler 6000 71 75 71 2 THE SUN AIN'T GONNA SHINE (ANYMORE) The Four Seasons 10800 72 NEW 72 1 DAYLIGHT Maroon 5 5600 73 NEW 73 1 KEEP ON MOVIN' Five 5400 74 NEW 74 1 CHOCOLATE The 1975 5200 75 NEW 75 1 ANGEL Sarah McLachlan 5000 DROP OUTS 48 20 6 NEVER ENOUGH Petula Clark 93250 49 49 5 IRON Woodkid 57200 50 50 3 SUPREMACY Muse 33600 51 26 6 WHY AM I THE ONE fun. 80800 52 25 6 GOSPEL Robbie Williams 103600 57 57 3 METROLAND OMD 31200 58 38 5 FIRE IT UP Joe Cocker 67750 59 10 15 WHOLE LOTTA ROSIE AC/DC 243950 66 66 3 CLARITY Zedd/ Foxes 18800 70 70 3 BASSLINE JUNKIE Dizzee Rascal 17200 72 1 18 RADIOACTIVE Imagine Dragons 975000

I go for ones that are currently in album charts or Top 200 singles, but give priority to those tracks that havent charted or peaked properly before. cheers! john

I think I'd rechart A New England or the brilliant Walking Down Madison (if they hadnt already been big hits in my chart) or Teardrop Explodes awesome Reward. cheers john :)
March 20, 201312 yr John, 2 great debuts from Bonnie Tyler and Agnetha Faltskog. Why old "Keep On Movin'" here ? Big Reunion ? Andrey, glad that Kirsty McColl is in your charts. Such tragic death, R.I.P Kirsty.

Such tragic death, R.I.P Kirsty. Thanks Alex:) Yes partly The Big Reunion, its a good pop record and it's selling enough to be in the Top 200 singles at the moment, or thereabouts, so it qualifies to rechart. I loved Kirsty and was upset when she died so tragically thanks to a moron who was never caught. cheers! john
