Posted August 15, 20231 yr 13th August 2023 It's a third week on top for the punktastic New York Transit Queen, Corinne Bailey Rae narrowly holding off an extended Tiesto dance remix classic of Delerium's Silence, now well over 20 years old and sounding amazing at my niece's 40th DJ/buffet bash at the weekend. I've never heard the full 8 minutes before, and it's quite the event, new at 2 and topping it's original number 5 chart peak. Sarah MacLachlan therefore also gets a new chart peak, and 2 dance club faves Sandstorm and Firestarter both return for a third chart run due to sounding awesome played loud in a venue. Also so close to topping my chart, vampire, Olivia Rodrigo's best record to date, and her first top 10 up 31 places to 3. I had to freeze my chart last week, too busy to even think about doing one (see below for that one) so there's a lot of chart activity, Castles being the third time Life In A Northern Town has made my top 10, 2 of them sampling anthems, for Punctual. Galantis have had a few top 10's and a number one and Bang! Bang! they are back again at 9, while Texas have had 22 top 10's now with Keep On talking at 10, 8 of them number ones, plus another 2 from side-projects of member of the band. Billie Eilish leaps into the 20 with her lovely Barbie track, her 5th to do that, and Peter Gabriel rockets 59 places to grab his first top 30 track with new material in a hard-to-believe 30 years. Noel Gallagher keeps his current run of singles off Council Skies cracking on, with new single Open The Door new at 56, and that's pretty much non-stop chart-entries since Peter Gabriel last had a top 30 Steam-driven track. Stephen Sanchez replaces himself in the chart, with new track Be More at 61, Birdy keeps her current run going with Paradise Calling new in, Cian Ducrot tops the album charts and debuts with Heaven, forgive me if I accidentally sing a bit of Duncan Laurence's Eurovision winner. The Hoosiers are back with Idaho after a 12-year absence, and 16 years since topping my chart with Worried About Ray, and only their 7th chart entry. Blur make it 4 off the new album, Barbaric at 77, Aloe Blacc is back after a break of 3 years and only his 4th as lead artist since I Need A Dollar in 2011, Swedish House Mafia get a 2nd recent comeback dance track, Ray Of Solar, Stormzy & RAYE do a collab and add to their list of chart entries, Jungle make it 3 off the new album out this week, ditto Far From Saints, only it's been out a few weeks, and finally the late Sinead O'Connor returns with her iconic classic, Nothin' Compares 2 U back for yet another run. 1 1 1 5 NEW YORK TRANSIT QUEEN - Corinne Bailey Rae 577200 2 NEW 2 1 SILENCE (TIESTO IN SEARCH OF SUNRISE EXTENDED REMIX) - Delerium featuring Sarah MacLachlan 115000 3 34 3 3 VAMPIRE - Olivia Rodrigo 120200 4 2 1 7 SOLSTICE KISS - Simple Minds featuring Sarah Brown 509400 5 7 5 5 ENDLESS SUMMER - Alan Walker & Zak Abel 212800 6 4 1 8 END OF NIGHT - Tears For Fears 554800 7 15 7 4 CASTLES - Punctual featuring World’s First Cinema 110200 8 40 8 4 I BETTER LOVE YOU - Will Heard 87800 9 12 9 6 BANG BANG!

August 16, 20231 yr Hey John, hope you're well. I see you're busy what with having to post two chats at once! Hopefully your life starts to become a little bit less hectic. Just gonna comment on the second chart since that makes more sense. Aww look at Corrine bailey Rae go! Honestly, 100%, put your records on is the only song she's ever released that I enjoy which is surprising because the debut tends to become less favourable as time goes on. Ach no, what is this stall for Olivia all about. Vampire is superb, it cannot have a #34 peak. No sir. What was I made for? Stalling as well? What is this! Both vampire and what was I made for? Are amazing pop songs and deserve their time! Don't think twice is great but having a peak of #73 doesn't bode well, 3 weeks in. Oh dear. The strings are what makes the song for me to be fair. Car keys can hopefully climb. It's surprisingly been growing on me. Fab chart ^_^

August 16, 20231 yr Hi there John! Nice to see "Vampire" reaching the top 10, the big gains for "What Was I Made For?", "Mercy", "(It Goes Like) Nanana", "Popular", "Rush", "Car Keys", "Beside You" and "Makeba" and the debuts for "Sandstorm", "Open The Door, See What You Find", "Heaven", "Barbaric", "So Much In Love", "Never Let You Down", "Ray Of Solar", "The Weekend" and "Nothin' Compares 2 U". Great chart! Take care.
August 16, 20231 yr I am more used to the Airscape remix of 'Silence'. My favourite Kosheen songs are 'Catch You' and 'All In My Head', don't think I have heard 'Harder' before.
August 19, 20231 yr Hi John :hi: 3 34 3 3 VAMPIRE - Olivia Rodrigo 120200 Glad to see this so high! Very reminiscent of 'Happier Than Ever' but still staying true to Olivia's own artistry.

August 19, 20231 yr Texas in the top ten!! Sharleen Spiteri is such an underrated and talented vocalist, and one of my all-time favorites; it's such a shame all of her songs have flopped here in the US. Also good seeing new peak positions for DJ Cassidy, Beverley Knight and Bonnie McKee :D Flashback for Darude - simply classic, that choice is superb :D

August 21, 20231 yr Author Hey John, hope you're well. I see you're busy what with having to post two chats at once! Hopefully your life starts to become a little bit less hectic. Just gonna comment on the second chart since that makes more sense. Aww look at Corrine bailey Rae go! Honestly, 100%, put your records on is the only song she's ever released that I enjoy which is surprising because the debut tends to become less favourable as time goes on. Ach no, what is this stall for Olivia all about. Vampire is superb, it cannot have a #34 peak. No sir. What was I made for? Stalling as well? What is this! Both vampire and what was I made for? Are amazing pop songs and deserve their time! Don't think twice is great but having a peak of #73 doesn't bode well, 3 weeks in. Oh dear. The strings are what makes the song for me to be fair. Car keys can hopefully climb. It's surprisingly been growing on me. Fab chart ^_^ Hey james! :) Thanks james, the hecticness continues for another couple of weeks, then down to one day work a week hooray! :yahoo: Corinne's new track is a punk singalong, she's gone back to her indie roots and dropped the sweet ballads. I was shocked! Vampire is top 3 now, it's brilliant, and Billie is top 10 too, both fabulous :heart: Rita Ora, yes the strings make it, and Car Keys your wish is granted, it's climbing! :lol: Thanks for the comments, hope all is good with you! B-)

August 21, 20231 yr Author Hi there John! Nice to see "Vampire" reaching the top 10, the big gains for "What Was I Made For?", "Mercy", "(It Goes Like) Nanana", "Popular", "Rush", "Car Keys", "Beside You" and "Makeba" and the debuts for "Sandstorm", "Open The Door, See What You Find", "Heaven", "Barbaric", "So Much In Love", "Never Let You Down", "Ray Of Solar", "The Weekend" and "Nothin' Compares 2 U". Great chart! Take care. Hi Sergej! :) Thanks for all the picks! Hope all is going swimmingly with you! B-)
August 21, 20231 yr Author I am more used to the Airscape remix of 'Silence'. My favourite Kosheen songs are 'Catch You' and 'All In My Head', don't think I have heard 'Harder' before. Hi Snakey! :) , I dont think I've heard the Airscape remix of Silence, but Harder is an old fave that topped my charts in 2002, but I entered it into the Buzzjack Song Contest to get it better known, thanks for dropping in and commenting! B-)
August 21, 20231 yr Author Hi John :hi: 3 34 3 3 VAMPIRE - Olivia Rodrigo 120200 Glad to see this so high! Very reminiscent of 'Happier Than Ever' but still staying true to Olivia's own artistry.

Blur have always been faves of mine, and I always love artists that keep on being creative long after the hits dry up. Great to hear they are getting radio play!

August 21, 20231 yr Author Texas in the top ten!! Sharleen Spiteri is such an underrated and talented vocalist, and one of my all-time favorites; it's such a shame all of her songs have flopped here in the US. Also good seeing new peak positions for DJ Cassidy, Beverley Knight and Bonnie McKee :D Flashback for Darude - simply classic, that choice is superb :D Hi SSP! :) I totally agree about Sharleen, her vocals are honey smooth and flawless live, and she's a great frontsperson, full of energy and enthusiasm. I guess Texas are too 60's soul-styled for most rock fans looking for edgier stuff and not dance enough for pop fans, which is a shame. Thanks for the picks and comments! B-)
August 21, 20231 yr Author Paradise Calling is not bad but great to see Ray Of Solar here! :cheer: Thanks Uhsting :) Ray Of Solar is sounding good, loud in my car. I like being the oldest nuisance playing banging dance music on the road hah! Other car users tend to play rap with the windows open :lol:
