July 10, 201511 yr If I recall correctly there was a news bulletin in the chart one week in 2001 - I'm thinking October - that was breaking the news UK and US had declared war on Afghanistan. I remember listening to that one.
July 10, 201511 yr First Friday Drivetime chart I have listened to in over 10 years, the last one I listened to was over here on Ireland's 2fm the show at the time was presented by the Late Tony Fenton, who died recently.
July 10, 201511 yr I can't get into 'Five More Hours', it's just too generic and unremarkable. Having said that, I can imagine me doing a U-turn one day if I hear it when I'm trashed on a night out.

July 10, 201511 yr 8 tracks in 22 minutes. Good luck with that. Did I miss them saying they were trying to get to the top 10 by 5pm?
July 10, 201511 yr The news update at 16:30 used to be part of the chart show on Sunday in the early 1990s. *.* Wasn't that because there was a separate breakers show before the news update, then the charts show proper was on from 16:30?
July 10, 201511 yr I wonder if Nathan Sykes is a new entry at #14 :D if he is that's Thursdays' update position
July 10, 201511 yr 'Photograph' :heart: The Felix Jaehn remix floating around is decent too, although doesn't hit me as hard as the original. Also saw the accompanying music video a few days ago for the first time and it's so lovely. :wub:
July 10, 201511 yr I love Photograph. Anyway, the reason why the songs are dropping so hard is because they've simply been pushed down by the four new entries, Wings, Let It Go climbing, and Photograph holding against the current, and having nothing which crashes down this week.
July 10, 201511 yr Wasn't that because there was a separate breakers show before the news update, then the charts show proper was on from 16:30? Nope this was 1992-1994 when they played the full Top 40 from 4pm.
July 10, 201511 yr Did I miss them saying they were trying to get to the top 10 by 5pm? Pretty sure I heard him say that. I imagine they'll make a few adjustments in the first few weeks, hopefully one that plays new entries at least.
July 10, 201511 yr I love Photograph. Anyway, the reason why the songs are dropping so hard is because they've simply been pushed down by the four new entries, Wings, Let It Go climbing, and Photograph holding against the current, and having nothing which crashes down this week. That doesn't explain why they drop MORE than 4 places :P (Deorro for example down 7)
July 10, 201511 yr So far then, so disappointing. I don't see the point of a chart show if they don't say how tracks have moved. Otherwise it's just a list of songs, not a chart show. Not playing the new entries is also pointless and annoying. If, on top of this, there's data missing, as some of you are saying, then this is a right old mess. Greg could do better than this.

July 10, 201511 yr 'Trap Queen' has probably been the biggest grower of the year thus far. So into it right now. :wub:
