Posted August 7, 20168 yr 7th August 2016 It’s ABC for a second week on top as another great track from The Lexicon Of Love II, Kiss Me Goodbye, rockets up 58 places to 8, giving them a 3rd top 10 of the year. It’s gorgeous and I hope it’s the next single. Meanwhile, their 5th chart entry of the year and also from the album sneaks in at 67, Ten Below Zero. Highest climber is Offaiah, up 71 and causing Trouble at 16. Highest new entry is Richard Ashcroft, They Don’t Own Me at 26, giving him 2 inside the 30, while at 28 is a cut from the new Suicide Squad movie from ConfidentialMX, a haunting semi-orchestral version of the Bee Gees brilliant I Started A Joke. Probably their most under-rated 60’s song, it’s already topped my chart for The Bee Gees and in a cover from Pet Shop Boys, both this century. Fingers-crossed this version takes it to a wider audience! Others: Frances gets a 3rd chart entry at 30, the lovely Say It Again, Blossoms enter at 38 with Charlemagne, Bieber sneaks in twice at the lower end guesting for DJ Snake and Major Lazer: he certainly knows which way his dance-producer bread is buttered, though to be honest he could record himself farting into a microphone, set it to a 2016 production and his fans would make it number one. Just saying..... :) That leaves a newie from golden oldie Dolly Parton, giving her a span of 40 years of charting, and an oldie from Nancy Sinatra, her version of Neil Diamond’s 60’s Holly Holy, probably the best version I’ve heard, even over the previously charted Junior Walker & The All Stars (1973) and UB40 (1998) and Neil’s original. Nancy has an official chart run of 45 years, but it should be 50 years (cos These Boots would have topped my imaginary chart in 1966, being as I was mad on it aged 8). 1 1 1 4 THE FLAMES OF DESIRE ABC 485000 2 2 1 11 SAVE IT Salt Ashes 1095300 3 4 2 14 HOTTER THAN HELL Dua Lipa 598550 4 6 4 4 LET ME KNOW No Wyld 194250 5 3 1 12 OTRA ERA Javiera Mena 592700 6 7 6 4 HIGHER Kwamie Liv 126800 7 9 1 13 SWIPE TO THE RIGHT Jean-Michel Jarre featuring Cyndi Lauper 870200 8 66 8 2 KISS ME GOODBYE ABC 54800 9 10 9 3 LOVE THAT GROWS OLD Max Jury 100250 10 8 3 12 HOLD ON Richard Ashcroft 497200 TrJP2vnc37A 11 5 2 7 HELL OF A GIRL Grace 415200 12 14 12 22 YOU DON’T HAVE TO SAY YOU LOVE ME Dusty Springfield 284050 13 15 14 4 WILD WEST Lissie 67000 14 16 15 4 HEY Willa 89800 15 13 13 5 YOU DON’T KNOW LOVE Olly Murs 106600 16 87 16 2 TROUBLE Offaiah 27600 17 17 17 4 PORCELAIN Skott 82500 18 11 3 7 WHEN THE NIGHT COMES Jeff Lynne’s ELO 296300 19 29 19 2 HANDCLAP Fitz And The Tantrums 39200 20 30 20 3 KILL ‘EM WITH KINDNESS Selena Gomez 49000 _9zLg08v6aI 21 12 1 13 BURN Pet Shop Boys 1049750 22 22 22 4 BALLROOM BLITZ The Sweet 74600 23 24 23 3 TILTED Christine And The Queens 48250 24 18 3 12 CRY Sigma featuring Take That 464200 25 19 4 12 ALL IN THE NAME Bright Light Bright Light featuring Elton John 329100 26 NEW 26 1 THEY DON’T OWN ME Richard Ashcroft 18500 27 20 20 5 INVINCIBLE Firebeatz and DubVision featuring Ruby Prophet 79750 28 NEW 28 1 I STARTED A JOKE ConfidentialMX featuring Becky Hanson 18300 29 21 6 17 THIS GIRL (KUNGS VS COOKIN' ON 3 BURNERS RADIO EDIT) Kungs & Cookin' On 3 Burners 511750 30 NEW 30 1 SAY IT AGAIN Frances 18000 gOdeIP-Wxuo 31 23 1 8 MAKE IT WITH YOU Bread 573900 32 40 32 3 CLOSER Josef Salvat 51800 33 44 33 4 WHAT’S IT GONNA BE Shura 48950 34 46 34 4 MAKE ME...
