Posted October 6, 201311 yr 5th October 2013 It's been an erratic climb, but after it finally gets released (and so late it missed the UK Top 40) Capital Cities worldwide smash hits my top. A big raspberry to Radio One who feel it wouldnt appeal to it's core target age group. It has everywhere else... They'll be playing theme tunes to Spongebob Squarepants and Teletubbies next in a failed effort to reduce the listener average age (BTW that wouldn't work either, cos Spongebob is fab and also appeals to the over 30's!). Pet Shop Boys 4th single off Electric gets played on Radio 2 and shoots back up my charts (Radio 2 is fab, just wish the listeners bought singles), joining CHVRCHES , Gavin DeGraw and Drake for a varied new look to the Top 10. Highest new entry is Cher. She's 67. She was getting playlisted on Radio One when she was a mere youngster of 52, and becoming the biggest selling pop song on the planet that year. She's had number ones in my charts in the 70's, 80's and 90's, and would have had two in the 60's had I been compiling charts then (with Sonny) cos I loved (Sonny &) Cher as a kiddie, teen, young adult, adult, and beyond. Sneaking in at the bottom end are 2 80's regulars, Boy George & Dave (Eurythmics) Stewart, and 70's forgotten Beatles proteges Badfinger. This track was a US hit, and last week was the featured song for the series end of Breaking Bad (and is selling pretty well as a result). Badfinger were hit by the financial troubles of Apple Records, and both of the band leaders ended up committing suicide. They hit my number one in 1971 with No Matter What and achieved songwriter immortality with Without You, as definitively covered by Nilsson (and killed by mariah carey). 1 3 1 13 SAFE AND SOUND - Capital Cities 470100 2 1 1 3 BETTER - Cat And The Menagerie 266000 3 2 1 5 HERO - Family Of The Year 530000 4 5 4 8 COUNTING STARS - OneRepublic 320000 5 54 2 12 THURSDAY - Pet Shop Boys featuring Example 512100 6 16 6 3 BEST I EVER HAD - Gavin DeGraw 98500 7 9 7 2 A LIGHT THAT NEVER COMES - Linkin Park featuring Steve Ioki 95000 8 14 8 4 THE MOTHER WE SHARE - CHVRCHES 101100 9 10 9 6 DREW - Goldfrapp 157650 10 20 10 5 HOLD ON WE'RE GOING HOME - Drake featuring Majid Jordan 117300 11 8 4 6 NEW - Paul McCartney 269100 12 7 7 8 STRONG - London Grammar 152700 13 6 6 8 ROAR - Katy Perry 225800 14 17 14 2 NIGHT CAFE - Orchestral Manoeuvres In The Dark 52000 15 11 1 7 EVERYBODY WANTS TO RULE THE WORLD - Tears For Fears 546500 16 25 16 5 BLUE EYES CRYING IN THE RAIN - UB40 78900 17 22 17 4 CHEATING - John Newman 84500 18 13 7 6 ANIMALS - Martin Garrix 181450 19 26 19 4 EVERY TIME I SEE YOU I GO WILD - B.E.F. featuring Kim Wilde 49500 20 28 20 6 RADIATE - Jack Johnson 97000 21 31 21 2 DNA - Anna F 37650 22 30 22 4 THE BEST JEWEL THIEF IN THE WORLD - Prefab Sprout 58700 23 12 1 11 LOVE IS A BOURGEOIS CONSTRUCT - Pet Shop Boys 644250 24 15 1 18 LA LA LA - Naughty Boy featuring Sam Smith 1556200 25 4 3 4 YOUR LIES - Shelby Lynn 223750 26 32 26 2 LOSE YOURSELF TO DANCE - Daft Punk featuring Pharrell Williams and Nile Rodgers 36300 27 39 27 2 GOGOGO - Status Quo 35500 28 19 19 6 HOME AGAIN - Elton John 88050 29 18 18 5 BLOOD DIAMONDS - Simple Minds 81600 30 NEW 30 1 I HOPE YOU FIND IT - Cher 18000 31 24 1 11 SUMMERTIME SADNESS - Lana Del Ray vs Cedric Gervais 935900 32 34 32 4 YOU DON'T KNOW ME - The Polyphonic Spree 64900 33 71 33 2 ROYALS - Lorde 23500 34 RE 34 2 SLEEPWALKING - Lissie 23000 35 46 35 5 WHY'D YOU ONLY CALL ME WHEN YOU'RE HIGH - The Arctic Monkeys 57650 36 21 9 7 LIFTED - Naughty Boy featuring Emeli Sande 165150 37 NEW 37 1 LET ME GO - Gary Barlow 17300 38 43 38 7 SOMEWHERE ONLY WE KNOW - Keane 78000 39 NEW 39 1 HOLES - Passenger 17100 40 70 40 2 THE WIRE - HAIM 23000 41 23 5 8 IN OUT - Dan Croll 253050 42 44 27 5 SAME LOVE - Macklemore & Ryan Lewis 79900 43 27 14 7 BRAND NEW DAY - Kodaline 150200 44 49 44 5 THINGS WE LOST IN THE FIRE - Bastille 43950 45 41 1 21 SUPREME - Postiljonen 1348950 46 48 46 13 THE LAST TIME - The Rolling Stones 109050 47 50 47 2 58 BPM - Tensnake featuring Fiora 24500 48 36 32 7 SUPERSOAKER - Kings Of Leon 92400 49 NEW 49 1 HEART-SHAPED STONE - Kathryn Williams 12100 50 38 38 3 SHOW ME LOVE (AMERICA) - The Wanted 46400 51 53 51 4 ROSE OF CIMARRON - Poco 43500 52 37 15 6 KISS IN TAKSIM SQUARE - Chinawoman 107850 53 29 13 7 LITTLE NIKKI SAYS - Little Nikki 131950 54 NEW 54 1 YOU MAKE ME - Avicii 11000 55 40 6 9 COOL - LE YOUTH 239300 56 RE 56 2 RESCUE - The Feeling 16000 57 33 33 3 THIS IS THE NIGHT - Toploader 40600 58 NEW 58 1 JULIET - Lawson 10200 59 47 35 4 BONFIRE HEART - James Blunt 46700 60 60 60 2 CAN'T DANCE - Lisa Stansfield 20000 61 56 2 10 RED HANDS - Walk Off The Earth 470600 62 RE 62 3 CHANGING OF THE SEASONS - Two Door Cinema Club 20800 63 NEW 63 1 ISLAND SONG - Zac Brown Band 7200 64 64 64 2 THE OCEAN - Saturday, Monday featuring Julia Spade 14200 65 65 1 25 PHOTOGRAPH - Ringo Starr 517650 66 66 66 2 CRY NO MORE - VAULTS 13600 67 69 67 3 ATLAS - Coldplay 19000 68 68 1 25 SHORLEY WALL - Ooberman 707950 69 NEW 69 1 DNA - Empire Of The Sun 6200 70 NEW 70 1 BABY BLUE - Badfinger 6000 71 45 5 8 JUST KIDS - F.U.R.S. 250100 72 72 1 123 GOD ONLY KNOWS - The Beach Boys 1979950 73 NEW 73 1 DARK HORSE - Katy Perry featuring Juicy J 5400 74 NEW 74 1 KING OF EVERYTHING - Boy George 5200 75 NEW 75 1 EVERY SINGLE NIGHT - Dave Stewart featuring Martina McBride 5000 DROP-OUTS 35 16 7 COOL LIKE ME - Fryars 131400 42 9 7 RIGHT PLACE RIGHT TIME - Olly Murs 178000 51 24 4 LET GO - Dive In 61550 52 29 7 APPLAUSE - Lady Gaga 119300 55 37 6 LOST GENERATION - Rizzle Kicks 62100 57 48 5 SONNENTANZ (SUN DON'T SHINE) - Klangkarussell featuring Will Heard 48500 58 10 8 (YOU DON'T KNOW) HOW GLAD I AM - Nancy Wilson 191150 59 59 2 HUNTER - Sandra Van Nieuwland 16900 61 17 7 EVERYTHING TO ME - Shane Filan 110050 62 62 1 SWEPT - Mons Montis 7400 63 63 1 TAKE IT BACK - Spark 7200 67 67 1 WITHOUT U - Oscar Zia 6600 73 73 1 FLATLINE - Mutya Keisha Siobhan 5400 74 74 1 I WILL BE THERE - Katie Melua 5200 75 75 1 CHILLIN' IT - Cole Swindell 5000
October 6, 201311 yr Hi, John! I'm very pleased to see Capital Cities are at No.1! And you know why. They spent 5 weeks at No.1 in my Chart. Looks like it was a grower for you. 13 weeks in the Chart before finally getting to No.1 THURSDAY is another amazing track in your Chart. I love Badfinger. I've got 2 of their albums on CD: No Dice and Straight Up. Very Beatles-like band and very talented music writers. It's a pity they didn't receive the fame they deserved. I heard that Boy George new song. Truth to tell i was a bit disappointed. Something wrong with his voice now. He sounds different from what he used to be and not the sort of what i liked about him. Looks like his best days are over.

October 8, 201311 yr Thanks Andrey, yes Capital Cities is your daughters birthday Number One for you! Its a great pop record B-) I love Badfinger too, the good news is they just made 73 in the official UK Top 75, enough for them to register for the first time in 41 years with a track that may be old but isnt a re-entry/re-issue, that's quite a record in itself. I have Straight Up on vinyl, there's a good track on it I think called We're For The Night or something like that that should have been a single. I love No Matter What, Day After Day, Without You and Macca's song Come And Get It... B-) Boy George's voice has gone all deep, like Elton's did at his age, which is a disappointment in both cases, they just don't quite sound right I know what you mean. Mind you marianne faithful's voice went through the biggest change of all, from sweetly angelic, to drug n booze-razzled rasp, and she went on to make good records anyway! cheers! john Thank you, John for very warm words. I'm very pleased that you remember "Safe and Sound" has been No.1 in my Chart on a day my daughter was born. I wonder what was the case why Badfinger re-entered the national Chart? Did they reissue their catalogue or what? You're absolutely right on voices changes with the age. Unfortunately it happens with everyone at some certain point (after 50). Perhaps one day we will hear of a brand new voice-decoder that makes artist voice sounds younger. Someone would say it's against the nature, but i like the idea. As well as the idea that people must live much longer.

No Visage? :kink: as usual, still some stuff I've yet to hear. Fantastic chart as always :D Hi AH, thanks for that, I was also sure Capital Cities would be a hit - I think they missed the window of opportunity by delaying release so long, people hear it on holiday and want to buy it when they get back. When you can't you eventually forget about it and get excited about something else newer :( No Visage yet, I' afraid - I did youtube your recent Visage entry but it didnt leap out at me right away and I havent gone back to it yet (I tend to buy anything I like the sound of, or growing on me, about 10 a week and I make cd's for the car shuffling the order each week of the extra tracks, favourite first :lol: ) cheers! john
