Chart commentary: In another slow moving week at the top, German dance guru Luetzenkirchen makes it four weeks at number one with '3 Days Awake', for a third consecutive week keeping Royworld at number two with 'Brakes'. Katy Perry at last cracks the top three at Keane's expense, and with both Royworld and Katy releasing physical singles this Monday, they could finally get enough exposure to topple the hard-living Munich DJ. The sublime Delays sneak into the Top Five as Dizzee Rascal fades away, and there's still no shifting German Schlager pin-up Helene Fischer from the Top Ten, even though the autumn promises the release of a new single from her chart-topping album 'Zaubermond'.

 

All the fast moving in the chart comes lower down. DSL Sofa advert song 'Chasing Butterflies' by Steph continues to make strong progress despite not even being available as a full song download, though constant repetition on ITV every night can't harm it's chances of drilling itself into the brain. Meanwhile, Will Young propels himself back into the Top Ten with 'Changes'. But even these songs may be beaten to the top by this week's highest entering and highest climbing songs.

Eric Prydz looks to repeat the success of 'Call On Me' with his new instrumental 'Pjanoo' straight in at 14, whilst the jangly, almost Jam-like guitars of American college heroes King Of Prussia make a big impact, leaping from the lower reaches to 15 today. With the American Presidential election campaign about to make its traditional Labour Day launch, 'Misadventures of the Campaign Kids' could be the perfect soundtrack to the next eight weeks!
