Posted September 6, 20177 yr 3rd September 2017 It's Galveston for a 3rd week on top in a pretty static top 5, but with a hot new entry for Paloma Faith returning with a fab song Crybaby in at 7 giving her 8 years of top 10 hits since New York topped my chart. 8 top 10's and 3 number one's later and she's back. P!nk finally gets back into the top 10, her 10th at least. Little Mix replace themselves in the top 20, and Saint Etienne rocket into the 20, at least their 8th since 1993, plus a chart-topper for Sarah Cracknell. Pet Shop Boys have 3 expanded versions of 3 of their more recent albums with loads of fab tracks, several I don't know and didn't own. The first album I played is 1999's Nightlife, so in at 22 is a total showtune written for their musical (but dropped), Tall Thin Men is amusingly short and fab. AT 27 they have mashed up 2 Elton John songs, got him to sing on the new versions...and never released it. Pretty good version, and both songs made my top 10 in their original versions. Clare Maguire is back with a remixed version of previous 2016 top 10 Elizabeth Taylor, Swish Swish re-enters for Katy Perry now I know it's all about Taylor Swift. Now I like Taylor's songs, but let's be honest she seems to slag off everyone she meets in her songs, so turnabout is fair play, she started it. So there, nyah, na, nana naaa. One would hope she might grow up and write about something important instead. Katy does and sticks up for the non-rich to boot. In at 49, and here's a chart return I never thought I'd see - it's Bucks Fizz! OK, Bobby G is missing, which is a shame as he owns the name and his vocals were a key part, but hey ho, pretty much them 36 years on. They had a decade-run in my charts, and 3 chart-toppers. 1 1 1 4 GALVESTON Glen Campbell 625000 2 2 1 7 STILL FEELS LIKE THE FIRST TIME Zoot Woman featuring Kylie Minogue 603600 3 3 1 8 TRUE FEELING Galantis 700000 4 4 4 4 DRINK UP Train 188000 5 6 4 5 MORE MESS Kungs featuring Olly Murs & Coely 242400 6 10 6 2 LIKE AN ANGEL PASSING THROUGH MY ROOM Madonna 97000 7 NEW 7 1 CRYBABY Paloma Faith 50000 8 9 8 7 ROCKIN’ The Weeknd 219700 9 7 4 8 AVE PLAGUE KING PLAGUE 424000 10 12 10 4 WHAT ABOUT US P!nk 112450 11 8 8 8 I’LL BE AROUND Empire Of The Sun 263450 12 5 5 4 I’M NOT GONNA MISS YOU Glen Campbell 215000 13 15 13 4 HOLDING ON Dannii Minogue featuring Jason Heerah 89150 14 17 14 4 IT’S ONLY MAKE BELIEVE Glen Campbell 91000 15 20 15 2 3 A.M.

September 7, 20177 yr Hi PCF, haven't commented on your chart in a while I think :o Paloma's new song is very good. Quite current I would say but still retains her as an artist! Claire McGuire was very good in the BJSC :wub: Glad to see Swish Swish re-enter :heart: Mermaid by Skott is good loved her for ages now! Martin Solveig and YONAKA are good too! Great Chart :D

Great Chart :D Hi Harry, thanks for dropping by! I hope Paloma gets a hit but she's not really really Streaming target audience these days, sadly! Clare Maguire was a total walkover for buzzjack - annoyingly she made my top 10 months ago and I didn't consider it for BJSC! :lol: Skott is cool, grower... cheers! john B-)

Hi Toffo, glad you like Zoot Woman/Kylie, and I also charted the original Clare mix last year! Great to see OMD grab a top 5 album (albeit with album sales historically low these days). I wonder whether once older acts have departed there will even BE an album chart one day - I can see it replaced by an album tracks chart! cheers! john

Hi Jordan, Thanks for dropping by! :) Yes that Train single is SO obviously potential big hit, I'm mystified why it's not doing the business! Adam Lambert, yes never gonna get airplay, but at least he has integrity and uses sweariness for a point rather than a needless sales boost (with single airplay edit for extra sales) :cheer: yay for him :) Maren is fab, needs to be a hit in the UK. cheers! john
