Here we go with another edition of "Next Week`s Chart". The weekly preview of what might happen, on Next Sunday`s Charts. With thanks to Peter, and John at HMV for there info. Put together with other info from Woolworths, Zavvi, Tesco, Sainsburys, and all major download sites, then averaged out in chart form.

 

We did pretty good last week. When we had a total of 28 albums in the top 30, 18 in the top 20, and 8 in the top 10. :thumbup:

Bubbling outside the top 30 are: 31 Story Songs - Various (a collection of songs that tell a story), Levellers - Letters From The Underground at 32. Also in the 40 are entries for Love Song - Various, Classic FM Jazz - Various, Late Of The Pier - Fantasy Black Channel is 38. Fightstar - Alternate Endings are in, Beth Rowley goes back up the top 50, as does The Essential Leonard Cohen (an acquired taste). You ain`t lived until you have listened to Leonard! Many may have died, though! :teresa:

 

In the singles, last week we got 38 in the top 40, 27 in the top 30, 18 in the top 20, and 9 in the top 10. Dave Spoon etc, and Nickelback`s "Rockstar" we had outside, so it wasn`t bad. Big flop was Tinchy Stryder (who bailed out, quite sharply).

Another pretty slow chart. :cry: Outside the top 40, in the top 50 are: September, Madonna, Go: Audio are 44. Little Jackie, and Alphabeat take downloads alone into the 50, too. Solange squeezes in at 43. Santogold get top 60..Other entries to the top 75 are:The Cure, The Music, The Delays, and The Ryes..all by the skin of their teeth, too! :angry: The Verve take the physical number one today. As downloads, are against some of the others i.e. Bloc Party.

Radio Luxembourg had 8 in the top 10, 15 in the 20, and 26 in the top 30, in 1986. But in saying that, they actually had Boris Gardner at number 1..2 weeks before Radio One! :o

In 1986, we actually had a good Summer..apart from the late August Bank Holiday Monday, when it absolutely chucked it down, from mid-morning onwards. I especially remember it, because my Cousin was (at the time), working at Capital Radio. This was one of those week`s when the Late, Great Alan Freeman was sitting in for David Jensen (on the Network Chart, playing Prince`s new hit, before anyone else). I recall a lot of moaning about Radio One, that week..Tommy Vance also sat in, for Bruno Brookes. Bruno usually played about 30/31 records on the Sunday Chart show, over at Radio 1. When Tommy sat in..he only played 28! Alan Freeman (on the other side), managed to get 30 into 2 hours, and had 5 commercial breaks! Sounds a bit familiar, ay! :)

Anita Dobson gave us the words to the Eastenders theme..while the Coronation Street theme was pretty much "It` s Coronation Street, It`s Coronation Street..It`s Coro...Nation...Stree eee eee eeeet!" Well that`s what a young Gary Wilmot (comedian) said! Camouflage and Stan Ridgeway, would fit well on the "Story Songs" new compilation (the story of a man saved during a war, by a ghostly figure named "Camouflage". What`s The Colour Of Money was a film in 1986..but the song was just a coincidence. So popular was Lulu`s rerecording of "Shout", that the original 1964 recording was also, put out against it..The original actually sold better in `86, than the new version! What does Daryl Hall do in his spare time, these days? Well, he invites other stars round, and interviews them at his house! How about that for a hobby!!

 

Don`t forget Mart!n`s Mids tomorrow..and we might find out, why he is calling himself "Heather", at the moment. Is it because a lady came up to him the other day, and said "Would you like to buy some lucky heather?"...Hopefully he replied "Only lucky for you, and your bank balance you mean!"

Oh that fat woman! :thumbup:

 

Made me think of the joke..Man walking into butchers, says "Have you got pigs trotters". "No", says the butcher "It`s just the way I walk!"

I think all of the shops are underestimating Noah & The Whale's album...it will surely go top 3 :o
Im glad The Script are likely to get the number 1 album this week as it is seriously good :heart:

Yes, I see this at #3 too. It should do 25k. It's TV-advertised and is only £6.97 in Woolworths. it also has one of the catchiest hits of the year on it.

I reckon the top 2 albums will be between The Script and Noah & The Whale could be pretty close sales wise. ABBA will definitely go down this week
