Posted September 7, 200816 yr Chart Commentary: And so after a month of German heavy drinking and minimalist dance, our bi-curious friend Katy Perry at last leapfrogs both Luetzenkirchen and Royworld to get to number one in the Radio Newtown chart with 'I Kissed A Girl'. It's particularly galling for Royworld, whose 'Brakes' has already spent three weeks at No 2 behind '3 Days Awake', and now has to take runner-up position behind a new chart topper. And the chances of it eventually ascending to the top diminish considerably with the fast progress of two other songs in the top five. Climbing twelve places to number three are American band King of Prussia bringing their psychedlic janglings into the upper reaches with 'Misadventures of the Campaign Kids'. It's a topical number based around young people campaigning for a candidate in a US Election... except from the point of view of one who is more interested in one of the other campaigners than the candidate theirself! A delightful little slice of feel-good pop, it's expected to get to number one in the run-up to the American election in November, but still in with a chance is Eric Prydz, another European producer, up nine places to five with 'Pjanoo', and hoping to battle it out with Luetzenkirchen for the honour of having the biggest dance hit of the year. The two big climbers hamper the chances of Steph and Will Young in the Top Ten. Lower down the twenty, Rhianna at least makes an appearance with 'Disturbia', The p*ssy Cat Dolls hope to emulate their success of a couple of years ago with 'When I Grow Up', and in the flurry of interest surrounding his 'King of Pop' retrospective, Michael Jackson sees one of his lesser known tracks - with the swirling strings of writers Holland/Dozier/Holland - make a surprise new entry at sixteen. http://www3.hmv.co.uk/hmv/Large_Images/HMV/2352052.JPGhttp://i260.photobucket.com/albums/ii35/Merlo2001/VS1969.jpghttp://i260.photobucket.com/albums/ii35/Merlo2001/tmpphpSKi2qx.jpghttp://i260.photobucket.com/albums/ii35/Merlo2001/tmpphpV5Fyqe.jpghttp://www3.hmv.co.uk/hmv/Large_Images/HMV/DATA200CDS.JPG 1 (3) I Kissed A Girl - Katy Perry (New Number One) 2 (2) Brakes - Royworld 3 (15) Misadventures of The Campaign Kids - King of Prussia 4 (1) 3 Days Awake/3 Tage Wach- Luetzenkirchen 5 (14) Pjanoo - Eric Prydz 6 (6) Chasing Butterflies - Steph 7 (5) Keep It Simple - Delays 8 (4) Spiralling - Keane 9 (9) Changes - Will Young 10 (7) Lasst Mich In Dein Leben - Helene Fischer 11 (8) Beggin'- Madcon 12 (12) The Little Things - Colbie Caillat 13 (19) Stepping Stone - Duffy 14 (23) Disturbia - Rhianna 15 (NEW) When I Grow Up- PussyCat Dolls 16 (NEW) We're Almost There - Michael Jackson 17 (16) Built To Last - Melee 18 (11) Rot Sind Die Rosen - Semino Rossi 19 (13) The Man Who Can't Be Moved - The Script 20 (17) Superwoman - Alicia Keys Edited September 7, 200816 yr by Kit Curran
