March 21, 200916 yr I'm presuming Love Game didn't manage to climb after appearing last week. Shame but not worry about it just yet!
March 21, 200916 yr Nah it dropped out, but the very fact that it charted inside the top 50 with zero promotion just goes to show how much potential its got. It's gonna be song No.3 from The Fame so expect to see the video around May for a June release.
March 21, 200916 yr no doubt love game will at lowest go top 10 as lady gaga is huge here in ireland,im delighted to see galway girl back in the chart as i still adore this song. I would love to find out the pet shop boys complete chart runs here in ireland album included i can find all their singles that made top 30 but honest to god chart information is almost like gold dust for some annoying reaosn here in ireland. Still im glad pet shops at the least made the top 40 here i hope it mananges to climb next week also
March 22, 200916 yr Yeah Love Game should go top ten minimum. Although I wish Eh Eh was released as the 3rd single from the album rather than Love Game as a summer release would be just perfect for the song. Also Paparazzi is going to be the 5th single.
March 22, 200916 yr Author But to be honest, physical singles don't count for much on the Irish charts any more Though looking at the download chart recently U2 and Julie-Anne Dineen would have struggled to get to no 1 without a physical release...

Lady Gaga’s ‘Poker Face’ climbs back to No2 from No3, ahead of Julie-Anne Dineen’s ‘Do You Believe’ which slips to No3 after debuting at No1 last week. Beyoncé continues her sequence of solo hits with ‘Halo’ up from No15 to No8 - thirteen consecutive hits over seven years including three No1’s. For the past eight weeks Lady Gaga’s ‘The Fame’ has shuffled between No1 and No2 on the Album Chart – and this week she’s back on top. U2 drop to No2 after two weeks at No1, ahead of ‘The Annie Lennox Collection’, up from No5 to No3. Ronan Keating has this week’s highest new entry at No4 with his fifth solo studio album ‘Songs For My Mother’, his best opener since ‘Destination’ debuted at No3 in 2002. Other Mother’s Day successes include Bette Midler ‘The Best Bette’ up from No23 to No8, Take That ‘The Circus’ up from No20 to No12 and Tina Turner ‘The Platinum Collection’ up from No27 to No16. Shaky Fan's Commentary Journey drop out of the chart again but don't worry - the Galway Girl herself returns for a 78th week - no doubt helped by Sharon Shannon's appearance at the Meteor Music Awards during the week. Another Meteor winner, Imelda May (Best Irish Female), edges back into the album chart Top 10 - she also performed at the ceremony. It seemed that every mother in Ireland got a copy of the Priests CD for Christmas but obviously not as they re-enter at 53. There's a live DVD out at the end of this week so the album could well hang on for a few weeks yet. On the compilation chart there's no getting rid of Now 72 - 14 weeks at no 1, then a fortnight at 2 and now 2 weeks at 3. This surely must be one of the most successful titles in the series so far.... Number 1 this week Single: Flo rida ft Ke$ha - Right Round (1st week) Download: Flo rida ft Ke$ha - Right Round (2nd week) Artist Album: Lady Gaga - The Fame (1st week - 3rd in total) Compilation Album: 101 Housework Songs (1st week)
March 22, 200916 yr Though looking at the download chart recently U2 and Julie-Anne Dineen would have struggled to get to no 1 without a physical release... Just a couple of weeks ago, the entire top three consisted of downloads only and this year so far two chart toppers have been on download only releases. And we have seen with several songs recently that getting a physical release fails to make much of an impact on the charts. In some cases it even falls on physical release. Well obviously people went out and made a special effort to buy 'Do You Believe' on CD as it was the only way to buy it. As for U2, I really can't quite put my finger on why it sold so much on CD and failed to be a download hit, but there are exceptions to every rule I suppose. Edited March 22, 200916 yr by Irishguy123
March 22, 200916 yr Author "Do You Believe" WAS available to download - that's how I got it! There are links in last week's post to where you can download it (in Ireland and the UK). It does seem that charity singles rely more on physical sales - a great example being last week's UK chart where Islands In The Stream was no 1 in the main chart but only got to no 8 on the download chart!
March 23, 200916 yr Oh I see it was available to download, but not on iTunes, where I'm guessing over 80% of music is downloaded.
March 27, 200916 yr Enrique up from 20 to 9 this week :cheer: Jai Ho in at 11 :D GaGa Love Game back at 49!

March 28, 200916 yr Thanks, although I hope Shaky doesn't think you're stealing his job! Can anyone tell me where Pet Shop Boys are on albums (I guess they fell out of the singles?)
March 28, 200916 yr Thanks, although I hope Shaky doesn't think you're stealing his job! Can anyone tell me where Pet Shop Boys are on albums (I guess they fell out of the singles?) 'Love Etc.' is at No.42 this week 'Yes' is the highest new entry at No.34 on the album chart this week. Oh yes, and I forgot to add a notable absense from the singles chart this week. 'Don't Upset the Rhythm' by The Noisettes didn't even crack the top 50!
