As Radio 1 did not do a proper countdown of this week's chart, I will post the video's of the three new entries in this week's chart:

Chart Run:

 

Iron maiden celebrate an outstanding world tour with the release of their ultimate tour souvenir single, 'Different World'. Iron Maiden have been touring their critically acclaimed 'A Matter Of Life And Death' album since early October when they opened in the USA . By the end of the tour – which climaxes with 2 shows at London's Earls Court Arena– they will have played 44 concerts to half a million fans in 18 countries across North America, Japan and Europe. Says the band's Steve Harris, "We’re releasing this single with live tracks specially recorded on the tour, and our own version of Focus' 'Hocus Pocus' to celebrate all the fun we are having". - HMV

Wow, another top 10 hit for Iron Maiden in their legendary career of the band especially since 2007 is the 25th anniversary of their landmark album "The Number Of The Beast". What is more weirder that they had many top 10 hits or they had a #1 in their chart career

27 (84) Big Bass Vs Michelle Narine – What You Do (Playing With Stones)

Chart Run:

 

Dusted off from the archives and scheduled for a big re-release worldwide is a train spotter classic from Big Bass featuring Michelle Narine. Joining rappers Joey and Ryan on 'What You Do' is the talented Trinidadian songstress Michelle Narine. The combined sound of the trio, imbued with StoneBridge's tight production had the making of a classic, blending funky, jackin' beats with some smooth rhyming, and Michelle Narine's irrepressible chorus hooks. - HMV

fun video with the old people raving in the clip too bad this tune will failed to make the top 20

 

The 'Arnold Layne EP' from David Gilmour is a rare gem as it features two unique versions of the Syd Barrett classic as well as David Gilmour’s first ever public performance of 'Dark Globe'. Be quick though, the physical formats will be deleted after week one.

 

EP :o

How does that qualify for the chart?

This is actually good remake of Pink Floyd's first hit record in 1967, I have an early Pink Floyd record at home and that and See Emily Play were great psychedlic records when they were released.

 

Also, this is David Gilmour's first ever solo top 40 hit in his career
