Posted December 20, 20159 yr 20th December 2015 Yes it's Coldplay back at 1 for the third time and the 5th week, hotly pursued by Adele at 3 and Coldplay (with an assist from Beyonce on backing vocals so I'm giving her credit!) up to 6 from 50 with what I hope is the next single Hymn For The Weekend. Ditto Adele's Water Under The Bridge, hoping it's the next single. Highest new entry is SIA, at 17, and isn't she greedy!? Looking for Cheap Thrills, she's also Alive in at 74 and banging her head with David Guetta again at 29. There's a bunch of oldies and newies xmas songs entering or climbing, Charli XCX and Sigala are back, Star Wars makes an impact (the original John Williams score has never charted, even though the disco version by Meco topped my chart in 1977), and must mention Manfred Mann getting a Prodigy credit along with Public Enemy, who have been sampled along with the Manfred Mann re-sample. Manfred Mann were a pre-teen fave pop band of mine, and morphed into Manfred Mann's Earthband in the 70's, and have been away from my charts for quite some time! Manfred had 4 chart-toppers in both versions, and they now have a chart span of 47 years since they first hit my number one with Fox On The Run at Xmas 1968. I was mad on that record :lol: 1 2 1 7 ADVENTURE OF A LIFETIME Coldplay 1080000 2 1 1 6 WINGS Hurts 800000 3 7 3 5 WATER UNDER THE BRIDGE Adele 238200 4 4 1 16 QUEEN OF PEACE Florence + The Machine 1910000 5 3 3 5 LITTLE MAN Sonny And Cher 320000 6 50 6 3 HYMN FOR THE WEEKEND Coldplay featuring Beyonce 79000 7 5 5 5 HOT POWERS 236000 8 8 3 9 HEAVEN Shaun Frank & KSHMR featuring Delaney 564000 9 11 9 15 THE RAIN THE PARK AND OTHER THINGS The Cowsills 312800 10 10 10 5 FAST LANE Rationale 150200 11 6 6 4 WHAT A DIFF’RENCE A DAY MADE Dinah Washington & Belford Hendrick’s Orchestra 179000 12 9 9 5 THE GIRL IS MINE 99 Souls featuring Destiny’s Child and Brandy 125400 13 15 13 3 DELILAH Florence + The Machine 61600 14 14 14 23 HAPPY TOGETHER The Turtles 311500 15 26 15 4 GIVE IT ALL FOALS 54600 16 12 6 6 ONE STEP AT A TIME Jeff Lynne’s ELO 252000 17 NEW 17 1 CHEAP THRILLS SIA 23000 18 18 18 6 WHITE DECEMBER Kylie Minogue 115600 19 19 19 5 WHAT ARE THE CHANCES?

December 23, 20159 yr Author Wow, Queen of Peace is doing (deservedly) extremely well for you - how does it compare to your biggest ever hits? Hi dandy, She's knocking on the door of my all-time Top 100, 2 million will guarantee it, so another two weeks should do it, and every week after that she'll be climbing up amongst the Beatles, Abbas, and Pet Shop Boys and assorted classics :yahoo: :o I think it's cos I just dont get bored with it, it's rare current records have a run of over 12 weeks at the top, though oldies have longer runs lower down. It's an under-rated Epic with a capital E :cheer: cheers john
