Posted January 10, 20241 yr 7th January 2024 It's 3 weeks on top for Lufthaus and Robbie and Sophie, as Sophie brings her 2001 chart-topper and track of the year back courtesy of a TV series (The Tourist) and a big global movie, Saltburn, Murder On The Dancefloor makes it a third chart run. New in at 2, Lindsey Buckingham topped my early 1982 chart with the fab Trouble, which is selling on itunes, no idea why though. Cyril goes top 10 which means Suzi Quatro gets a top 10 for the first time since Strict Machine in 2011, for a 51-year run of 'em, on and off. Chris Norman last did it in 1977 or so. Stumblin' In didnt go top 10 first time round, though it should have. This week we lost Glynis Johns at the age of 100, she was in Mary Poppins back in the day and was already around 40 then! In 1973 she starred in A Little Night Music on Broadway and the song Send In The Clowns was written specifically for her and her uniquely British vocal style. Nobody has done it better than she did. No-one. She wrings emotion out of every word and barely sings. Debuting 50-years-late at 47. David Soul also sadly died, he was huge in 1977, and his two hugest tunes pop back in for the first time in 47 years, Silver Lady and Don't Give Up On Us. That leaves 2 Britpop bands returning to my chart, both of them somewhat looked down on at the time and since really, but as I don't care about Cool, I just know what I like, it's nice to see them both back - Cast at 72 with Faraway charting for the first time this century after a gap of nearly 25 years, and a chart span of 35 years if we count The La's (and I do). Kula Shaker have only been absent for a mere 17 years, but nabbed 2 chart-toppers back in the mid-nineties. Natural Magick is quite catchy. 1 1 1 6 IMMORTAL - Lufthaus feat Sophie Ellis-Bextor & Robbie Williams 580850 2 NEW 2 1 TROUBLE - Lindsey Buckingham 115000 3 2 1 7 SEBASTIAN - Cockney Rebel 885000 4 7 2 13 STORY - Kylie Minogue 696900 5 5 5 7 BAD WOMAN - Paloma Faith 256700 6 6 1 8 GOOD AT BREAKING HEARTS - Jungle featuring JNR Williams & 33.3 690000 7 9 7 6 WHERE DO WE GO FROM HERE? - MisterWives 195500 8 8 8 9 HOUDINI - Dua Lipa 235400 9 10 9 3 LAND OF MAKE BELIEVE - Bucks Fizz 106750 10 22 10 4 STUMBLIN’ IN - CYRIL featuring Suzi Quatro & Chris Norman 73500 11 16 11 5 JAMCOD - The Jesus And Mary Chain 103400 12 4 1 6 GO NOW - The Moody Blues 546000 13 3 3 10 RADIOPHONIC - Pet Shop Boys 411900 14 11 4 10 LOOK AT YOU NOW - Orchestral Manoeuvres In The Dark 434400 15 38 15 2 SHADES OF LOVE - The Blessed Madonna featuring The Joy 44200 16 13 1 16 HOLD ON TO NOW - Kylie Minogue 923800 17 12 4 14 VERUSCHKA - Orchestral Manoeuvres In The Dark 444200 18 18 18 7 ANGELS CRY TOO - Lucia & The Best Boys 96800 19 25 19 5 ONE ON ONE - The Knocks & SOFI TUKKER 70350 20 19 1 11 NOW AND THEN - The Beatles 874000 21 21 4 13 AEIOU - PNAU & Empire Of The Sun 443300 22 15 4 10 SAVOUR THE MIRACLE OF LIFE - Dario G 352800 23 14 7 10 ALREADY KNOW - Gustaph 297550 24 23 17 10 WE’RE GONNA GET THERE IN THE END - Noel Gallagher’s High Flying Birds 142000 25 31 25 6 WORTH IT - RAYE 69900 26 26 26 10 ALARM CLOCK - Sheryl Crow 119450 27 20 14 11 HASS HASS - Diljit Dosanjh X SIA 218600 28 28 28 8 CAN’T CATCH ME NOW - Olivia Rodrigo 108750 29 39 29 6 PRADA - Casso, D-Block Europe and RAYE 66600 30 32 30 6 WONDER EYE - Little Moon 74050 31 24 19 6 ARIA - Argy & Omnya 117150 32 48 32 2 NO CALIFORNIA - Ilsey 30100 33 37 33 5 THE DAY BEFORE YOU CAME - ABBA 82800 34 17 17 10 LOVE VOUDOU - Duran Duran 140800 35 35 35 8 GIRL - The Beatles 110100 36 29 12 10 OVERDRIVE - Ofenbach featuring Norma Jean Martine 240600 37 30 7 12 DOPAMINE - Mehro 302800 38 27 27 8 OWNER OF A LONELY HEART - Trevor Horn & Rick Astley 124600 39 34 1 15 SURE ENOUGH - Two Door Cinema Club 783000 40 33 26 8 I’VE BEEN IN LOVE - Jungle featuring Channel Tres 126050 41 44 41 8 THIS BOY - The Beatles 90300 42 36 1 18 SOMETHING ON MY MIND - Purple Disco Machine x Duke Dumont x Nothing But Thieves 943850 43 41 41 6 SOMETIMES (I’M ALONE) - The Kiffness 71300 44 52 44 8 MICHELLE - The Beatles 66550 45 57 45 6 LOVE ME/HATE ME - Mari Bella 54800 46 49 46 8 HEY BULLDOG - The Beatles 77200 47 NEW 47 1 SEND IN THE CLOWNS - Glynis Johns 12500 48 NEW 48 1 MURDER ON THE DANCEFLOOR - Sophie Ellis-Bextor 12300 49 54 49 3 DEAR JESSIE - Madonna 29300 50 42 32 10 PROBLEMZ - Jungle 128800 51 40 40 8 TK421 - Lenny Kravitz 93950 52 69 52 2 I REMEMBER EVERYTHING - Zach Bryan featuring Kacey Musgrave 17700 53 71 53 2 STRONG ENOUGH - Jonas Brothers featuring Bailey Zimmerman 17050 54 46 19 12 SKIPPING LIKE A STONE - Chemical Brothers featuring Beck 170950 55 43 33 9 HELLO LOVE - Jesse Ware 116100 56 47 17 11 STILL BELIEVE IN LOVE - Mary J.

Never any worries from me if you need real life time out to catch up! Yes the new year brought stress with family issues and one having to move in with me for the foreseeable with weekend child custody too. All such a shame when things don't work out. I'm sat on the settee looking at palm trees so i shouldnt complain :o pub quizzes every night and yet to win one :lol: Stumbling In is indeed a remix of the (better) original. I wasn't sure at first as the beats made it sound a bit odd so I googled to confirm it's the original vocal, hope it's a hit so Suzi gets some attention! Dear Jessie i played over Xmas and reminded me it's really a Christmas song and deserves to be treated like one every year :yahoo: :D Thanks for the huge list and comments and wishes! B-)
