Posted April 25, 200817 yr Well last week, we said a bye bye to the mrib charts. After 30 years, the company will be concentrating on films and dvds, as well as mobile entertainment. Dave Taylor, was rather sad (like a few of us). He will complete our thread later around 10pm, with his thoroughly researched singles/tracks. Dave has loosely based it, on Chart Show tv`s chart, but only loosely, as he has added all the info from Singles/download sites/stores to boost it up to tonight. Chart Show tv, will be running a brand new top 40 in full video form (Saturdays, from 3pm). Who need`s Ferne and Reggie! I am going to start the thread with Albums, Dvds, and top film charts. We have taken Album info, from stores and download sites. Dave was toying around with putting pre-release albums in, but decide not too. Although it would have been an idea, but then that is a prelude to Next Week`s Chart, that we do on Mondays. So, starting with 20 biggest albums, followed by a classic MRIB album chart from 1980. This Week`s Album top 20 w/k beginning 26th Apr 08 (last week`s positions are taken from the last mrib chart) 01 NE AGE OF UNDERSTATEMENT - LAST SHADOW PUPPETS 02 01 KONK - KOOKS 03 03 CLUBLAND CLASSIX - VARIOUS 04 04 NOW 69 - VARIOUS 05 07 SPIRIT - LEONA 06 05 ROCKFERRY - DUFFY 07 08 TRANCE ANTHEMS/DAVE PEARCE - VARIOUS 08 02 E=MC2 - MARIAH CAREY 09 NE GOOD TO BE BAD - WHITESNAKE 10 13 ADDICTED TO BASSLINE - VARIOUS 11 09 SCOUTING FOR GIRLS 12 12 GARAGE CLASSICS - VARIOUS 13 15 ALL THE RIGHT REASONS - NICKELBACK 14 RE 19 - ADELE 15 19 STEP UP 2 THE STREETS - VARIOUS/OST 16 14 101 DRIVING SONGS - VARIOUS 17 NE HARD2BEAT CLUB CLASSICS - VARIOUS 18 17 DREAMING OUT LOUD - ONE REPUBLIC 19 18 BACK TO BLACK - AMY WINEHOUSE 20 10 ACCELERATE - R.E.M. LAST SHADOW PUPPETS, win the race easily. It will be short lived for them, at the top because Monday see`s releases for MADONNA, PORTISHEAD, SAM SPARRO, and THE FALL. They should all go top 20. MADONNA, and PORTISHEAD for the battle. Here are the top 20 albums from 1980 this very week, from the MRIB/RECORD BUSINESS charts 01 01 GREATEST HITS - ROSE ROYCE 02 10 SKY 2 - SKY 03 05 MAGIC OF BONEY M - BONEY M. 04 02 12 GOLD BARS - STATUS QUO 05 03 DUKE - GENESIS 06 17 GREATEST HITS - SUZI QUATRO 07 06 SINGLES ALBUM - BOBBY VEE 08 14 IRON MAIDEN - IRON MAIDEN 09 16 HYPNOTISED - UNDERTONES 10 22 BY REQUEST - LENA MARTELL 11 NE HEAVEN AND HELL - BLACK SABBATH 12 07 THE BARBARA DICKSON ALBUM - BARBARA DICKSON 13 26 SNAKES AND LADDERS - GERRY RAFFERTY 14 04 BRITISH STEEL - JUDAS PRIEST 15 08 WHEELS OF STEEL - SAXON 16 09 REGATTA DE BLANC - POLICE 17 15 PRETENDERS - PRETENDERS 18 NE SOMETIMES YOU WIN - DR HOOK 19 12 COUNTRY NUMBER ONE - DON GIBSON 20 11 FACADES - SAD CAFE Getting heavey in 1980 with rock from SAXON, JUDAS PRIEST, IRON MAIDEN, and slightly less heavy with STATUS QUO, and GENESIS. Was it just coincidence that JUDAS PRIEST and SAXON had titles with STEEL in them? Strikes of the British Steel industry kept the news well going in 1980!! Quite a mixed bag with BOBBY VEE and LENA MARTELL both sandwiched between the heavy stuff. BARBARA DICKSON scored with some singles from the album, but LENA MARTELL could not follow up her number one single "ONE DAY AT A TIME". FERGAL SHARKEY was doing great with the UNDERTONES....DR HOOK had a few hits in 1980, from the album....SKY were doing classical rocky stuff, we all remember the impressive "TOCCATA". I always thought it sounded a little like the "RETURN OF THE SAINT, theme", with IAN OGILVY, on tv at the time! Just outside the 20 that week was PETE TOWNSEND and the EMPTY GLASS album (Pete, of the WHO of course, who featured on an edition of ALEXIS KORNER`s Sunday night show on Radio One, in 1980). Those VARIOUS ARTISTS were scarce in 1980, but STARTRACKS was just outside the 20. SAD CAFE were in the top 20, and should have done better with their follow up singles to "EVERY DAY HURTS", but never made the top 10 again. Here are this weeks top UK films, from the Box Office (courtesy of Screen International) w/k beginning 25th Apr 08 01 01 21 02 NE FOOLS GOLD 03 NE IN BRUGES 04 NE STREET KINGS 05 02 SON OF RANBOW 06 04 SPIDERWICK CHRONICLES 07 05 STEP UP 2 THE STREETS 08 03 27 DRESSES 09 NE HAPPY GO LUCKY 10 07 HORTON HEARS A WHO Numbers of 21, and 27 in the top UK films this week, for the second week running. Let`s take a look at the top dvds (from Blockbuster Rentals) 01 NE ST TRINIANS 02 NE ALVIN AND THE CHIPMUNKS 03 03 STARDUST 04 04 RUN FAT BOY RUN 05 02 ENCHANTED 06 08 THE INVASION 07 06 BEOWULF 08 10 THE KINGDOM 09 07 RATATOUILLE 10 12 30 DAYS OF NIGHT WE OWN THE NIGHT falls out of the top ten from last week, along with THE BRAVE ONE and MR BROOKS. On the other hand if you add up all the people that bought "ST TRINIANS", as well as those that rented it, you have 59,412 takers! Pretty impressive! Dave will take over soon with his brand new Singles and Tracks chart. But first here is the Singles chart from 1980 this very week 01 05 GENO - DEXY`S MIDNIGHT RUNNERS 02 01 CALL ME - BLONDIE 03 15 COMING UP - PAUL MCCARTNEY 04 02 KING/FOOD FOR THOUGHT - UB40 05 11 TOCCATA - SKY 06 06 SILVER DREAM MACHINE - DAVID ESSEX 07 04 SEXY EYES - DR HOOK 08 03 WORKING MY WAY BACK TO YOU-FORGIVE ME GIRL - DETROIT SPINNERS 09 08 TALK OF THE TOWN - PRETENDERS 10 12 DON`T PUSH IT DON`T FORCE IT - LEON HAYWOOD 11 20 CHECK OUT THE GROOVE - BOBBY THURSTON 12 26 THE GROOVE - RODNEY FRANKLIN 13 09 NIGHT BOAT TO CAIRO - MADNESS 14 21 MY PERFECT COUSIN - UNDERTONES 15 10 JANUARY FEBRUARY - BARBARA DICKSON 16 07 DANCE YOURSELF DIZZY - LIQUID GOLD 17 18 MY OH MY - SAD CAFE 18 17 KOOL IN THE KAFTAN - B.A. ROBERTSON 19 24 DON`T MAKE WAVES - NOLANS 20 44 I SHOULDA LOVE YA - NARADA MICHAEL WALDEN 21 NE WHAT`S ANOTHER YEAR - JOHNNY LOGAN 22 23 MISSING WORDS - THE SELECTOR 23 13 POISON IVY - LAMBRETTAS 24 31 WHEELS OF STEEL - SAXON 25 36 STARING AT THE RUDE BOYS - RUTS 26 NE GOLDEN YEARS E.P. - MOTORHEAD 27 NE BREATHING - KATE BUSH 28 30 HI FIDELITY - ELVIS COSTELLO AND THE ATTRACTIONS 29 16 TURN IT ON AGAIN - GENESIS 30 28 LET`S DO ROCK STEADY - BODYSNATCHERS DEXY`S and KEVIN ROWLAND stealing the number one, from BLONDIE in1980. PAUL MCCARTNEY`s title was apt, and smashing up the top 20. DAVID ESSEX had the theme to the film "SILVER DREAM RACER". Already told you about SKY. UB40 got more play on FOOD FOR THOUGHT more than KING, the double A sided hit. DETROIT SPINNERS re-worked a FOUR SEASONS number from 67. Good advice from LEON HAYWOOD. The MADNESS song came from the WORK REST AND PLAY E.P. RODNEY FRANKLIN had a catchy instrumental hit....SAD CAFE`s hit had a ROLLING STONES connection....BARBARA DICKSON had her third top 20 hit....JOHNNY LOGAN won EUROVISION, he was born in Australia, but spent all his life virtually in Ireland. He beat the UK entrants PRIMA DONNA (who came third) with LOVE ENOUGH FOR TWO, and totally missed the top 40, by a couple of positions. NARADA MICHAEL WALDEN was actually pronounced NARDA but everyone got his name wrong. I saw him in concert in 1988, and he spent about 10 minutes telling us! MOTORHEAD got heavy again with their E.P. The NOLANS followed up I`M IN THE MOOD FOR DANCING, but didn`t make waves! SELECTOR and BODYSNATCHERS were off the TWO TONE record label, and revived the ska movement. The RUTS took the fledging punk sound. Meanwhile my favourite female was KATE BUSH. Outside the top 30 was BAD MANNERS with NE NE NA NA NA NA NU NU, great lyrics yeah! Stick around Dave will complete the thread with the Singles chart (the new one, he put together between 9, and 11pm)........ Edited April 27, 200817 yr by davetaylor
April 25, 200817 yr Hi there folks, this will be the completion then. The top 50 singles. Note though don`t be sceptical, I have thoroughly researched this with a team (who do chart research) and we also looked at Chart Show tv top 40 too. The losers this week are LUPE FIASCO and MAKE MODEL who miss with their songs. Nobody downloaded them! FUNKERMAN and THE FEELING do actually make the top 75. HADOUKEN are in the top 70, DUFFY and WARWICK AVENUE is 56. SIMPLE PLAN are 55, KYLIE is 52 and BEN`S BROTHER is 53. Here is the top 50, based on Chart Show TV minus airplay, but with more up to date info, exclusive for Buzzjack alone :D . 50 42 WORK - KELLY ROWLAND 39) 49 33 PARALLEL WORLDS - ELLIOT MINOR 38) 48 NE MAYBE - JAY SEAN - 47 37 CHASING PAVEMENTS - ADELE 37) 46 36 CRANK THAT - SOULJA BOY 36) 45 23 HAPPINESS - GOLDFRAPP 35) 44 38 APOLOGISE - TIMBALAND/ONE REPUBLIC 34) = 39 43 44 BEAT IT - FALL OUT BOY - 42 32 DENIAL - SUGABABES 33) = 37 41 NE BACKFIRE AT THE DISCO - WOMBATS 32) = 36 40 NE WHO`S THAT GIRL - ROBYN - = 38 39 24 NATASHA AND SEAN - LOVE LIKE THIS 31) = 35 38 35 MGMT - TIME TO PRETEND 30) = not playlisted 37 NE COPS AND ROBBERS - HOOSIERS 29) = 40 36 30 DON`T STOP THE MUSIC - RIHANNA 28) = 33 35 28 PANIC AT THE DISCO - 9AM 28) = 30 34 NE OUTTA MY HEAD - ASHLEE SIMPSON - = bubbler 33 27 BASSHUNTER - NOW YOU`RE GONE 27) = 31 32 26 COME ON GIRLS - TAIO CRUZ 26) = 28 31 29 FLASHING LIGHTS - KANYE 25) = 29 30 NE WE CRY - THE SCRIPT - = bubbler 29 34 SWEET LIKE ME - GABRIELLA CILMI 24) = 34 28 21 TOCA`S MIRACLE - FRAGMA 23) = 27 27 45 PARTY PEOPLE - NELLY - = 32 26 25 WHAT WE GONNA DO - H TWO O 22) = 26 25 19 I`M NOT GONNA TEACH YOUR BOYFRIEND - BLACK KIDS 21) = 24 24 18 STOP AND STARE - ONE REPUBLIC 20) = 21 23 22 CAN`T SPEAK FRENCH - GIRLS ALOUD 19) = 25 22 31 TRIPPIN` ON YOU - CAHILL 18) = 22 21 09 AGE OF UNDERSTATEMENT - LAST SHADOW PUPPETS 17) = 18 20 NE COLD SHOULDER - ADELE 16) = 20 19 10 ALWAYS WHERE I NEED TO BE - KOOKS 15) = 17 18 NE PROPANE NIGHTMARES - PENDULUM - = 23 17 17 SOMETHING GOOD - UTAH SAINTS VS VAN SHE 14) = 19 16 15 BREAK THE ICE - BRITNEY SPEARS 13) = 16 15 13 BETTER IN TIME/FOOTSTEPS IN THE SAND - LEONA LEWIS 12) = 13 14 16 ROCKSTAR - NICKELBACK 11) = 15 13 11 WITH YOU - CHRIS BROWN 10) = 14 12 12 FASCINATION - ALPHABEAT 9) = 12 11 07 TOUCH MY BODY - MARIAH CAREY 8) = 10 10 14 HEARTBEAT - SCOUTING FOR GIRLS 7) = 11 09 08 MERCY - DUFFY 6) = 8 08 20 HEARTBREAKER - WILL I.

MGMT not on their playlist. Our team estimate that MADONNA`s sales are 17,000 ahead of SAM SPARRO here. The team even have some Physical action, with a purely Physical top 10 01 MADONNA 02 SAM SPARRO 03 SEPTEMBER 04 ESTELLE 05 LAST SHADOW PUPPETS 06 FLO RIDA 07 MARIAH CAREY 08 CAHILL 09 ADELE - COLD SHOULDER 10 CHRIS BROWN Funnily enough on Download sites....on MSN`s download top 40, SAM SPARRO is number one, on Tesco`s top 30, it`s MADONNA on top, as is HMV`s, and of course the mighty iTunes have WILEY (and WHO told you that, it would knock off Madonna)!!!!! Next week, look out for JAY SEAN, BEN`s BROTHER, USHER, ROBYN, and CRISIS on the physical release, and on downloads KYLIE, WIDEBOYS, and CARDIFF CITY F.C. (What)!!!! Yep "BLUEBIRDS FLYING HIGH", is a tip for the top 40, from me!! I am going to end with a competition. All you have to do, is tell us correctly what will be in a certain position, on next Friday night`s thread. So, on this thread next Friday....What song will be number 19? Get your answers, to me personally (not on this thread). Just send me a message, and win the Madonna album, on CD. Simple as that!! :rolleyes: AND WE`D BE GLAD OF COMMENTS, ETC.....

April 25, 200817 yr Thanks Dave, it will be interesting to compare this to both Sunday`s top 40, and I will also tune in to Chart Show TV on Sky tomorrow afternoon. When does your chart break off Dave?
April 25, 200817 yr Thanks Dave, it will be interesting to compare this to both Sunday`s top 40, and I will also tune in to Chart Show TV on Sky tomorrow afternoon. When does your chart break off Dave? It breaks off at 5pm today, but the research team pushed it further, for an estimation, of further sales, and I reckon it will be very, very close to Sunday`s chart. Chart Show tv, should be good, coz it will have the complete top 40, before Radio One, like Trevs said, who needs the 2 johnnies, at Radio One! :w00t:
April 25, 200817 yr I can now see who is #40 on the official chart for today as #40 was missing from the update, by the looks of things its Robyn or the Wombats. But I'm going for Robyn as she was in the chart yesterday a bit higher. Thanks guys for posting the charts.

I don`t reckon she will do that well, with that track, and will struggle to make the top 20, just like Jay Sean.
April 26, 200817 yr Thanks guys! :D Exciting and interesting stuff. Good to see Jay Sean in too. Wonder if it will be as successful, as Ride it. :)
April 26, 200817 yr If you have a minute Dave, or Trev..On Capital Radio 1991 - 93, they used to run a chart show on Wednesday nights 7.30 - 10pm with Clive Warren (before he went to Radio One, and back again to local radio), sometime it was hosted by Neil Fox (he also did the Capital Countdown, on Saturdays when he took over from Peter Young, Alan Freeman, and Pat Sharp). On both Wednesdays, and Saturdays, they played a top 40 in full. The show disappeard when the Pepsi Chart, took over from the Network top 40. How did these Weds/Sat charts work, they apparently had airplay, but sometimes were closer to the Radio One top 40??

How did these Weds/Sat charts work, they apparently had airplay, but sometimes were closer to the Radio One top 40?? Hi Brian, I used to listen to those charts on Capital. They were both compiled by MRIB until 1993. All they were really, was the midweek chart, and Saturday chart, based on London only sales. If a record in the chart wasn`t included in Capital`s airplay, it was removed. I remember SL2`s "On A Ragga Tip, being a victim in 1992. Capital only started to put in on their playlist, when it went to number 2 nationally. Strange but true, after Capital added it to their playlist, it went straight in to their chart at number 2, the following week! The MRIB London only chart existed the same as the national one 1978 - 1993. Like you said Peter Young did it until 1982, Alan Freeman dropped it for the NME chart June 1982 - Sept 1984 (then return with the London chart, 1984 - Dec 1988). Pat Sharp did it from Jan 1989 - 1991, when Neil Fox took over. Clive Warren was just a stand in host in 1991, when he did it on a Wednesday night. It was a good and pacey show, and again far better than Hit40uk, and Radio One. You may remember Clive Warren, went on to be a stand in host, for Mark Goodier on Radio One!
April 26, 200817 yr I can squeeze in a quick update here... Wiley could climb to number 4. Ashlee Simpson will be in the top 30 tomorrow around no` 29, at least. Gabriella Cilmi look`s like being 30 still, but pushing Fragma out to 31. The Hoosiers may jump over Rihanna and go to 36. Robyn will be up to around 38. Jay Sean is likely to rise a bit, with Kylie (so she will definately be in the top 50). Hadouken will go up to around 65. Edited April 27, 200817 yr by davetaylor
April 26, 200817 yr Tuned into Chart show tv, how`s the format done? It should be a mix of the complete top 40, and new releases/bubblers. It should start with Hoosiers on there. They will feature around 50+ videos in 4 hours. It is a good format, and no djs! It is a tad behind our chart, and breaks off around Wednesday, but the bubblers and new releases top it up. If you can sit through adverts at 17 passed, 23 to, 3 mins to the hour, it should be ok! Edited April 26, 200817 yr by davetaylor

April 26, 200817 yr Unfortunately I don't get this show on my satellite, I have to do without it. Why`s that then Mart!n mate? It`s on 355 on Sky now.
April 26, 200817 yr I'm on VirginMedia Oh I see. I will send you a copy of it one day, and then you can check it out. I would probably say for being new on a Saturday afternoons, it will do well. Although the time of 3 - 7pm, maybe difficult for some people. I think it would go down better, on a late week day.

So far they hae featured 35 vids, in 2 hours & 15 mins :yahoo: Although I got lost at 23, for some reason. Did I miss it? Or was it missed? :o
