Healthy, plausible chart there, I reckon! :D Outside the 30, Kanye West is up 17 to 31.....down goes Timbaland, Snoop Dogg, Kelly Rowland, Courteeners. Cherish hit the 40. Soulja Boy is hanging around with CRANK THAT, though his newie YAHHH! is struggling and fighting for a top 40 place. Jordin Sparks is heading for the 40. The FOOFIGHTERS are nowhere to be seen in the top 50, and who know`s what happened to WHITE STRIPES (was it a 7" only release?)

29 22 mysterious girl - peter andre

30 23 hey mama - black eyed peas

 

28 of these figured in the following Sundays chart. On last week`s thread, the boys did well with 10 in the top 10, and a similar order. 29 were actually in the top 30. Fragma, crept in to the top 30 at the last minute, on downloads of course.

 

Still wishing Trevs a speedy recovery, dedicate Toxic to him from the 2004 chart, when Britney was still doing great, rather like the songs today. And to everyone else think about the Darkness at number 19 back then, because it`s true! ;)

Fragma won't make a 29-8 jump unfortunately :( It deserves top 10 (again :P) but as it was already a number one hit in 2000 I'm not overly bothered

I hope The Last Shadow Puppets can go a little bit higher.

Interesting dave, many thanks.

 

I do hope Last Shadow Puppets and Black Kids can climb more :D

I hope Black Kids flop to be honest! I really dont like it! lol Well i dont hope it totally flops but i hope it doesnt go Top 10!

The FOOFIGHTERS are nowhere to be seen in the top 50, and who know`s what happened to WHITE STRIPES (was it a 7" only release?)

 

Foo Fighters was indefinitely postponed

 

White Stripes is not 7" only - there should be a CD too

Thanks Dave,

 

What`s the system the chaps use to get Last Shadow Puppets, so high? As it ain`t in the top 20 on itunes yet? Or even physically release.

Thanks Dave,

It`s based on the download sales, plus the rate of movement (on download charts) and a quota of pre-orders, from HMV. If the the state of things are anything to go on, they say that Madonna will almost certainly be number one, on physical release. So, Brian watch this space!

 

Fragma are probably doing better, than people think. The physical release for 2008 today. On MSN downloads it`s no`10 today, and a no`6 on the HMV downloads. Black Kids, well I told you that was top 10 bound on Friday night. They hit no`10 on HMV today on downloads, and again physically released today.
