Posted January 24, 20223 yr 23rd January 2022 It's 3 weeks on top for ABBA's When You Danced With Me, and Neiked, Mae Muller & Polo G rocket up to 9 in an otherwise quiet-ish top 10. In an about-turn Elton & Ed's Xmas song hits a new peak inside the top 20. Think of it as a year early rather than a month late, as christmas and new years 2021 was cancelled for me, it just didn't exist. New at 18, George Cosby with the Johnny Hates Jazz-ish We Stand Alone. No idea who he is, he seems brand new to the music industry but is getting Radio 2 plays. Adele goes top 30, and there are 3 re-entries for the late Meat Loaf, You Took The Words Out Of My Mouth the highest as it returns at 44 44 years on, mostly because it under-performed in my charts at the time and sounded great in the Bat Out Of Hell musical I saw a few years back as a surprise birthday present. Bat Out Of Hell also pops back for at least the 3rd time, and Cher's guest spot with Meat on Deadringer For Love ditto. Justin Bieber's Ghost finally impacts on me at 60, LEON's Wishful Thinking is new, Tove Styrke's Show Me Love joins Tove Lo's credit with Duran Duran in the chart, and it's her first solo entry since her debut in 2015. Bonobo, big on albums this week, debuts at 71 with Shadows, and that concludes the new stuff! 1 1 1 12 WHEN YOU DANCED WITH ME - ABBA 1160000 2 3 1 11 GIVE IT ALL UP - Duran Duran featuring Tove Lo 1150000 3 2 1 5 HELLO IT’S ME - Todd Rundgren 600000 4 4 4 4 DANCING AWAY IN TEARS - Yola 161000 5 7 5 3 NOTHING’S EVER GONNA BE GOOD ENOUGH - Miles Kane featuring Corinne Bailey Rae 155000 6 9 6 3 BRAVE - Ella Henderson 118750 7 11 3 12 BUMBLEBEE - ABBA 687000 8 8 8 9 HOLIDAY - Confidence Man 265200 9 55 9 2 BETTER DAYS - Neiked, Mae Muller & Polo G 55800 10 10 10 3 LESS THAN ZERO - The Weeknd 104000 11 6 1 12 ODE TO FREEDOM - ABBA 1017000 12 18 12 2 BE MY BABY - The Ronettes 57000 13 5 1 5 YOU JUST MAY BE THE ONE - The Monkees 427000 14 43 14 8 MERRY CHRISTMAS - Elton John & Ed Sheeran 120350 15 15 15 10 OVERPASS GRAFFITI - Ed Sheeran 159250 16 13 13 10 EVERYWHERE - Niall Horan & Anne-Marie 242400 17 14 5 12 KEEP AN EYE ON DAN - ABBA 514000 18 NEW 18 1 WE STAND ALONE - George Cosby 22000 19 21 19 5 LISTEN TO THE BAND - The Monkees 94550 20 27 20 4 MY HERO - Westlife 62900 21 16 16 10 SWEET DREAMS & DYNAMITE - Seeb & Nina Nesbitt 122200 22 17 9 10 SOMEBODY TO USE - Alesso 215500 23 24 23 5 SWEET TALKER - Years & Years + Galantis 73500 24 19 10 11 WORLD WE USED TO KNOW - Alan Walker & Winona Oak 284850 25 34 25 3 NO CHOICE - Tame Impala 43150 26 26 26 3 SACRIFICE - The Weeknd 55000 27 20 1 13 LITTLE THINGS - ABBA 683400 28 50 28 2 OH MY GOD - Adele 30300 29 29 1 21 DON’T SHUT ME DOWN - ABBA 1595900 30 32 30 4 WHEN I’M GONE - Alesso & Katy Perry 58400 31 35 31 3 LOVE CAN’T TURN AROUND - Pete Tong, Riton & Vula featuring Jules Buckley & The Heritage Orchestra 46900 32 22 17 11 KISS OF LIFE - Kylie Minogue & Jessie Ware 188850 33 33 33 4 MESSAGE IN A BOTTLE (TAYLOR’S VERSION) - Taylor Swift 57900 34 38 34 3 WHERE ARE YOU NOW - Lost Frequencies & Calum Scott 39800 35 12 4 5 WHAT AM I DOING HANGING ROUND? - The Monkees 217500 36 36 1 21 I STILL HAVE FAITH IN YOU - ABBA 1316650 37 39 37 3 LET’S ALL DANCE - Donny Osmond featuring Charlie Wilson 46700 38 28 28 9 INVISIBLE THINGS - Natalie Imbruglia 103300 39 41 39 5 PAPA GENE’S BLUES - The Monkees 68150 40 40 40 4 CAN’T HELP THINKING ABOUT ME - David Bowie 53600 41 25 18 11 DO YA FEEL MY LOVE? - Stereophonics 189650 42 44 42 8 SLOWDOWN - John Miles 80800 43 30 2 17 DOPAMINE - Purple Disco Machine featuring Eyelar 699850 44 NEW 44 1 YOU TOOK THE WORDS RIGHT OUT OF MY MOUTH - Meat Loaf 13250 45 45 45 8 MUSIC - John Miles 82400 46 31 9 13 MOTH TO A FLAME - Swedish House Mafia & The Weeknd 292050 47 37 1 8 HIGH FLY - John Miles 619700 48 59 48 2 WILDER DAYS - Morgan Wade 22400 49 NEW 49 1 SWEET YOUNG THING - The Monkees 12100 50 58 50 4 THE WAY YOU SAID GOODBYE - Jack Savoretti 35000 51 51 6 14 JUST A NOTION - ABBA 392450 52 52 52 9 RUN FOR HOME - Lindisfarne 69800 53 42 5 15 UNBELIEVABLE - Texas 348950 54 54 54 5 RIO - Michael Nesmith 41900 55 70 55 2 WON’T STAND DOWN - Muse 16800 56 60 56 3 SEVENTEEN GOING UNDER - Sam Fender 26200 57 62 57 2 BILLY GOODBYE - Franz Ferdinand 17800 58 NEW 58 1 BAT OUT OF HELL - Meat Loaf 10200 59 47 10 12 I CAN BE THAT WOMAN - ABBA 278700 60 NEW 60 1 GHOST - Justin Bieber 10000 61 64 61 3 IF YOU COULD READ MY MIND - Gordon Lightfoot 20600 62 NEW 62 1 WISHFUL THINKING - LEON 7400 63 66 63 2 PAINT THE RED ROSE BLUE - Elvis Costello & The Imposters 14000 64 NEW 64 1 SHOW ME LOVE - Tove Styrke 7100 65 56 1 17 HERE COMES THE NIGHT - Agnes 814050 66 73 66 2 PLANET IN THE SKY - Klingande x Merk & Kremont featuring MKLA 12200 67 57 7 21 COLD HEART (PNAU REMIX) - Elton John & Dua Lipa 549000 68 71 68 2 BABY I LOVE YOU - The Ronettes 12200 69 74 69 2 FLAMES - NERVO featuring Salena Mostroianni 11400 70 46 10 13 ABRAHAM, MARTIN & JOHN - Marvin Gaye & The Royal Philharmonic Orchestra featuring Beverley Knight 311600 71 NEW 71 1 SHADOWS - Bonobo featuring Jordan Rakei 5800 72 75 72 2 BOTH SIDES NOW - Joni Mitchell 10600 73 53 27 15 UNDENIABLE - Kygo featuring X Ambassadors 207750 74 NEW 74 1 DEADRINGER FOR LOVE - Meat Loaf featuring Cher 5200 75 23 12 5 SOME OF SHELLY’S BLUES - The Monkees 107250 DROP OUTS 48 9 14 ON MELANCHOLY HILL - Gorillaz 315550 49 20 13 SEE YA WHEN I SEE YA - Miles Kane 193800 61 16 13 SHIVERS - Ed Sheeran 226400 63 55 10 CAN’T STOP WRITING SONGS ABOUT YOU - Kylie Minogue & Gloria Gaynor 73100 65 37 10 UNSTOPPABLE - James Blunt 117200 67 36 10 GOING HOME - Goldfish featuring Max Vidima 124550 68 47 10 ENEMY - Imagine Dragons x J.I.D. 93500 69 56 10 AFTER LAST NIGHT - Bruno Mars, Anderson .Paak & Silk Sonic featuring Thundercat & Bootsy Collins 86600 72 33 11 SO HAPPY IT HURTS - Bryan Adams 141150
January 24, 20223 yr Nice appearances for Meatloaf of course and I checked out some of semi 1 last week and your entry sounded decent enough. Corinne looking a lot older though but I guess she hasn't been in the music scene much in the last 10 years so to be expected I guess and amazed she's over 40 considering she looked about 19 in 'Put Your Records On' video to me lol. Just noticed Lindisfarne lower down too. 'Run For Home' is a good oldie that I frst came across 10 years ago. Weirdly enough there is a street sign down the road from us that I think is called the same as the bands name or very similar lol. Freaky that! Edited January 24, 20223 yr by Roba.
January 24, 20223 yr Hi John! Nice to see "Better Days" reaching the top 10, the big gains for "Oh My God" and "Won't Stand Down" and the debuts for "Ghost" and of course the Meat Loaf songs. Great chart!
January 29, 20223 yr Hi John, When You Danced With me still on top :cheer: Less Than Zero holds up in the Top 10 Neiked is nice. Dissapeared from the Dutch/Power Top 40 a few weeks ago! Wow! Merry Christmas climbing again :P Tame Impala, Adele and Alesso/Katy Perry all Top 30 :dance: Nice to see MeatLoaf (RIP) in the chart. Best new entry bubbling under: Justin Bieber :w00t:

Hi Rob, thanks and yes Corinne looking fine for 40 I think wrong semi syndrome for Miles though, too many Indie & dance fans who aren't generally into tuneful pop :lol: Lindisfarne Avenue or whatever - I'm guessing it's on a housing estate where roads are named after islands :lol: Round here, the one I'm on is named after flowers, and the round the corner they are all birds. I'd love to get to name roads - they would def all be named after pop stars :lol: cheers! B-)

I could have sworn it did! That error has now been corrected! Ed & Elton are climbing because I didn't get to hear it over christmas (or any music) so I was about 3 weeks behind on it, and its sounding great in my car when I pop to Tesco :lol: I didn;t want to wait till next xmas in case I'm bored with it then... :) I just took a fancy to Leon and Tove Styrke on one hearing so I bought them, usually I'd get them from your charts but just happened to notice they were out :lol: cheers!
