I was listening to the chart show for this earlier today actually, as it was put on Mixcloud! Here's part 1 and part 2 if anyone wants to listen.

For those who missed it or want to revisit; to mark the 10th anniversary five years back we re-ran the first Buzzjack chart show - this was actually the chart that followed the one in the OP where Chico held the #1 for a 2nd week

 

Thread here.

 

(eurgh at Chico though, so cringe - PCD deserved)

5 brand new entries all from different artists in the Top 10, that puts us in a different chart era for starters!

 

'Sewn' by The Feeling is brilliant and of course proof at #3 that a superior version of that track existed years before TikTok was thought up.

 

Note the Michael Jackson entry at #15 from when he tried to replicate the Elvis re-issue success of 2005 and thankfully failed.

Love the new entries from Orson, The Feeling, Freemasons and Jack Johnson :wub:

 

Jack Johnson shockingly low here, that track never did make the Top 10. Same with Hot Chip and 'Over And Over'.

Both of those do feel a lot more well remembered these days than their chart peaks suggested!

 

Sewn is definitely my favourite new entry from the week though, I hadn't heard that one in many many years! :wub:

Agreed on both counts. It's a shame Sewn was beaten by those shocking new entries in the Top 2 though.

Some of the follow up ‘Feeling’ singles seem remembered more than ‘Sewn’ for some reason!

Yeah, Twelve Stops and Home had so many good singles on it really!

Favourites from the Top 40

 

3 Put Your Records On

5 No Tomorrow

6 Thunder in My Heart

12 You Got the Love

13 Boys Will Be Boys

15 Rock With You

16 Sugar, We’re Goin’ Down

20 Standing On My Own Again

21 All Time Love

24 You Spin Me Round

25 The JCB Song

26 Hung Up

28 Better Together

32 Over and Over

37 When the Sun Goes Down

39 Gold Digger

 

16/40 isn’t great, particularly as 4 are effectively reissues.

 

 

Love the new entries from Orson, The Feeling, Freemasons and Jack Johnson :wub:

 

Freemasons' Watchin is obviously the highlight for me the production is fab, it obviously was the height of the disco house trend in chart dance music at the time with Hi-Tack and a Meck and Leo Sayer song also in the chart. The latter not being so random and 'of the time' when soon we may have a Majestic and Boney M song in the chart :o

 

I liked the Jack Johnson track at the time, Because of You is another very good Kelly Clarkson song.

Boys Will Be Boys is good but a bit jokey and overplayed as a soundbed in TV programmes since, Gold Digger is good but I prefer Touch the Sky.

 

You Spin Me Round, great and it really sounds different to anything else in the charts when it charted in 1985.

 

The Fall Out Boy song is good but its no Thnks Fr Th Mmrs. The Charlotte Chruch song is nowhere near as good as Crazy Chick. The Shakira song sounds a bit 90s alternative, its very good, I had forgotten about that song.

Thanks for those, listening to it now! What on earth did they do for the first hour of the chart show back then as they just whizzed through 40-21! So much nostalgia even with hearing Zane Lowe and Steve Lamacq doing commentary on the new entries

I think that would have been the albums?
