Chart Commentary: While others rave about Kings of Leon, a different King tops the Radio Newtown chart today, after a swift ascent to the summit. In its fourth week of chart action, 'Misadventures of the Campaign Kids' by King of Prussia is the new number one, toppling Katy Perry's 'I Kissed A Girl' after just one week.

The self-styled band of 'method actors', from Georgia, in the USA have hit the top with a topical number, just as the American Presidential Election campaign gets into gear. As the machinations of Obama, McCain, Palin and the rest continue to dominate the airwaves, a long run at the top for King Of Prussia's alternative take on the system looks likely, with Eric Prydz's 'Pjanoo' at number three unlikely to have the momentum to carry it to the top. However, a little-known track from King of Pop Michael Jackson, 'We're Almost There' sweeps up twelve places to number four, and could be an outside bet for the top.

While PussyCat Dolls and Duffy make the Top Ten, just outside it, Paul Weller has a big climb with his pleasing current single 'All I Wanna Do' (not a cover version of the Sheryl Crow hit). Meanwhile, the delicious voice of Sarah Cracknell comes back to the Top 20, with 'Burnt Out Car' by Saint Etienne the highest new entry at 14. With a 'best of' retrospective out soon, the new dance re-mix of an old song is keeping fans happy and looks set for a top ten placing next week.

 

But for now, it's all about King of Prussia!

 

 

The new chart...
