Posted January 29Jan 29 26th January 2025 It's been a 50-year wait but The Osmonds finally get to the top spot with their Four Seasons cover, The Proud One. Easily their best ballad and one of the longer waits to get to number one. The Osmonds first charted in 1972, but never got higher than runners-up, not even with Crazy Horses. Sam Fender gets runners-up spot with the Sprinsteen-esque People Watching, which is a hobby that never gets boring. Sit on a beach and watch people walking by. TRUCKS goes top 10, from the mini-series Cars On The Road, and the musical number for kids has a fabulous video. Kids will love it if they get to watch it. Highest new entry is from Kygo and OneRepublic, Chasing Stars leapfrogs OneRepublic's already-charting Hurt, in at 19, and makes it 15 years of top 20 tracks and over 20 charting tracks to date, including a number one with Love Runs Out in 2014. Kygo is on 10 years of charting so far, and is also on at least 20 chart entries. Good Neighbours grab a 3rd top 40 at 22 as Ripple sounds like a 3rd top 10 based on 2 plays in 24 hours, and Teddy Swims is on for a 4th charter with new album track Hammer To The Heart sounding like a future single at 25. Glass Animals have been about since before that monster 2021 hit Heatwaves - which they haven't followed-up for me until this week - as they get a 4th chart entry with A Tear In Space at 50, 9 years on from debuting. Chappell Roan's Pink Pony Club finally wriggles into my brain after being out for ages, for a 5th chart track inside 2 years. The BBC not really sticking their neck out with that Sound Of 2025 award thing. Might as well have picked any global-seller, considering they didn't go for her for Sound of 2024 before she went big. We at Buzzjack had already been charting her by then so they have no excuse! Artemas grabs a 3rd (rude) track, Topic & Daecolm are back with less collabs in tow for a 2nd chart entry together, Meghan Trainor keeps up the hit-years with Criminals making it a dozen spread out over most of the last 12 years, and The Marias enter their lovely No One Noticed for a second chart track. That leaves current UK number one Messy to debut for Lola Young, keeping up the "young female songwriter fed up with boys/men" theme of the last few years. Just dump 'em if they are that bad and get on with your life! 1 3 1 5 THE PROUD ONE - The Osmonds 310000 2 6 2 11 PEOPLE WATCHING - Sam Fender 292900 3 7 3 8 THE DARK END OF THE STREET - Pet Shop Boys 232850 4 1 1 10 APT. - ROSE & Bruno Mars 664350 5 2 1 11 EXTREME WAYS - Armin van Buuren & Moby 1059250 6 4 1 11 LATE NIGHT PHONE CALL - Reverend And The Makers 1232800 7 8 7 11 ALL YOUR FAULT - Gwen Stefani 228250 8 5 5 4 EUPHORIA - Armin van Buuren, Norma Jean Martine & LAWRENT with Alok 139000 9 9 9 8 DON’T TAKE AWAY THE MUSIC - Tavares 248200 10 15 10 9 TRUCKS - Cars On The Road Cast 184900 11 16 11 9 CAN’T SLOW DOWN - almost Monday 181000 12 12 3 11 DISCO AT THE STRIP CLUB - Reve 674500 13 13 13 15 TABOO - Kylie Minogue 285800 14 28 14 7 BARBARELLA - Betty Boo 84450 15 19 15 10 MIDNIGHT TRAIN - Kim Wilde 142100 16 21 16 8 NIGHTMARE - Geowulf 140750 17 14 1 18 YOU AGAIN - The Lottery Winners featuring Reverend And The Makers 1007400 18 27 18 4 MORE THAN A WOMAN - Tavares 60000 19 NEW 19 1 CHASING PARADISE - Kygo & OneRepublic 21000 20 29 20 8 ANOTHER NIGHT - Grace Davies 113000 21 11 4 15 FANTASY - JADE 509150 22 NEW 22 1 RIPPLE - Good Neighbours 19500 23 10 4 12 WITHOUT YA - Bakermat featuring Gladys Knight 467550 24 17 5 8 HEAVEN MUST BE MISSING AN ANGEL - Tavares 291800 25 NEW 25 1 HAMMER TO THE HEART - Teddy Swims 18750 26 32 26 9 LATE ’88 - Deacon Blue 98850 27 33 27 8 LIVE FOREVER - Chesney Hawkes 93000 28 24 1 21 NEVER GOING HOME TONIGHT - David Guetta & Alesso featuring Madison Love 1083150 29 49 29 5 BEAUTIFUL THAT WAY - Miley Cyrus 52300 30 20 8 12 DISCO WITCH - LEXXE 321750 31 18 8 11 NOW OR NEVER (IT’S MY LIFE) - Bon Jovi x Pitbull 280150 32 22 1 12 SCREAMLAND - Father John Misty 619550 33 37 33 8 BOUQUET - Gwen Stefani 90150 34 30 1 21 THE GIRL THAT I CALL HOME - Tears For Fears 990200 35 48 35 3 KEEP ME SATISFIED - Jungle 36900 36 38 15 18 HEAVY IS THE CROWN - Linkin Park 282400 37 31 25 15 SHOULDA LEFT YA - Kylie Minogue 214100 38 46 38 5 NIGHT OR DAY - Franz Ferdinand 59350 39 34 15 12 BACK AT YOUR DOOR - Orville Peck & Debbii Dawson 203300 40 40 40 8 YOUR NAME IN LIGHTS - Simple Minds featuring Sarah Brown 85200 41 35 26 8 SUPERSCAR - Adela 134850 42 57 42 4 GIMME LITTLE SIGN - Brenton Wood 37750 43 39 39 8 MISERERE - Pet Shop Boys 105600 44 41 4 17 HIGHER - Tom Grennan 499850 45 45 1 21 HEART LIKE MINE - Sam Feldt featuring Rosa Linn 1058100 46 67 46 2 NO BAD VIBES - Jazzy & KILIMANJARO 19250 47 64 47 3 I’M IN LOVE... - Andy Bell featuring Dot Allison and Michael Rother 26600 48 53 48 5 HURT - OneRepublic featuring Jelly Roll 46250 49 25 12 14 THE FEELING - Rudimental, 1991, PNAU & AR/CO 297200 50 NEW 50 1 A TEAR IN SPACE (AIRLOCK) - Glass Animals 12000 51 36 36 8 TANGERINE RAYS - Zedd featuring Bea MIller & Flood 93250 52 43 2 17 EVIL WOMAN - Duran Duran 545800 53 63 53 7 VIVA L’OPERA - Armin van Buuren featuring Natalie Gioia 46250 54 42 12 12 I BELIEVE IN MIRACLES - The Jackson Sisters 255050 55 55 4 40 FEEL - Pet Shop Boys 1071500 56 50 20 12 SOMEONE FOR ME - Kylie Minogue 174400 57 NEW 57 1 PINK PONY CLUB - Chappell Roan 10400 58 44 16 13 ALL THE YOUNG DUDES - Pet Shop Boys 199700 59 62 59 8 NICE TO MEET YOU - Myles Smith 59900 60 59 10 24 DIE WITH A SMILE - Lady Gaga & Bruno Mars 430900 61 56 4 34 BIRDS OF A FEATHER - Billie Eilish 756650 62 66 62 4 LOVE ME FOR A REASON - The Osmonds 25000 63 69 63 3 LET ME IN - The Osmonds 18400 64 68 64 3 COLD DREAMING - Doves 18800 65 NEW 65 1 FANCY - Artemas 7000 66 NEW 66 1 CONTROL OF ME - Topic x Daecolm 6800 67 73 67 2 BLOODSHOT - Enter Shikari 12000 68 70 68 3 HEY YA! - Tom Speight featuring Lydia Clowes 18000 69 NEW 69 1 CRIMINALS - Meghan Trainor 6200 70 74 70 2 BUILD IT UP - Franz Ferdinand 11200 71 NEW 71 1 NO ONE NOTICED - The Marias 5800 72 NEW 72 1 MESSY - Lola Young 5600 73 71 71 4 BUG - Fontaines D.C. 21800 74 NEW 74 1 THE KILLING MOON - Echo & The Bunnymen 5200 75 NEW 75 1 FOLLOW ME - Special Interest featuring Amanda Lear 5000 DROP OUTS 23 4 13 LEFT TO MY OWN DEVICES - Pet Shop Boys 487050 26 1 10 WHAT HAVE I DONE (TO DESERVE THIS) - Pet Shop Boys and Dusty Springfield 527000 47 47 4 SAY HELLO WAVE GOODBYE - Soft Cell 47100 51 34 11 YOUNG LION - Sade 142450 52 19 13 DISEASE - Lady Gaga 166600 54 8 21 WALK AWAY RENEE - The Four Tops 419600 58 1 19 LOOKING THROUGH THE WINDOWS - The Jackson 5 842350 60 31 9 SAY GOODBYE TO MUM AND DAD - Tears For Fears 122000 61 19 14 GET A HOLD OF YOURSELF - Chesney Hawkes 185650 65 36 8 RISK IT ALL - Shy FX featuring Maverick Sabre 97450 72 70 3 YES I CAN - Bonnie Tyler 17000 75 66 7 WINTER SONG - Mike Batt featuring Paul Carrack 40400

Fantastic chart as always :wub: Hi AH! :) Hope work is mellow! Productive week ta, scanning old slide photos B-) People Watching is pretty exciting, but is a slow burner, needs a lot of plays to click! Snap at PSB's peaking at 3 then :D That was also a slow grower for me, it's quite low key and subtle. APT I overdosed on playing the video a lot, I have a low tolerance for hearing records a lot! :lol: My brother is happy to play the same faves over and over but I reach a saturation point eventually with most. All of the regular oldies in the UK charts I'm done with, I wish theyd go away and some other oldies would get a break! Oops! It's always the new fresh stuff I prefer to hear. Jazzy's hits I didn't really notice much, but this track has got some great afrobeat dance vibes and a catchy tune. Meghan can get samey at times, but she's usually fun, a rarity in these introverted, self-obsessive morose chart hit days, so I usually give her the benefit of the doubt when I play a new record once. Talking of which, Messy is a good track, I just wish APT had beat her to the top spot and while it's on the up for me at the mo, I can see it might start to grate down the line, from over-exposure. Follow Me has BJSC written all over it...no pressure though :lol: thanks as always for the in depth picks and comments B-)
