Bono was also involved in a couple of the Band Aid singles....

Lady Gaga drops to No2 with ‘The Fame’ after two weeks on top, ahead of this week’s next new entry for The Prodigy at No3 with ‘Invaders Must Die’ – the same debut position as their previous album ‘Always Outnumbered, Never Outgunned’ nearly five years ago. Prior to that they landed two No1 albums: ‘Music For The Jilted Generation’ (1994) and ‘The Fat Of The Land’ (1997). Lady Gaga returns to the top of the Singles Chart this week after just one week away, but now it’s ‘Poker Face’ that takes the crown despite being only available as a download. U2’s 20th No1 single ‘Get On Your Boots’ slips a place to No2 after just one week on top, ahead of Lady Gaga’s ‘Just Dance’, which remains steady at No3 and Bell X1’s ‘The Great Defector’ which climbs back up a place from No5 to No4. There’s just one new entry in this week’s Top 20 – T.I. and Justin Timberlake’s ‘Dead And Gone’ at No13. Shaky Fan's Commentary First a clarification - Snow Patrol were at 95 on last week's album chart. A typo put them a place lower. All change at the top of the charts this week! Lady Gaga returns to the top of the singles chart though with a different track - Poker Face which holds for a 3rd week on the download chart. Bell X1 seem set for a solitary week (for now) at the top of the artist album chart with No Line on The Horizon set to debut there next week after being released yesterday in Ireland. Incidentally I've been listening to NLOTH this afternoon and it is certainly a return to form after a couple of relatively disappointing releases. Finally Now 71 gives up after a very impressive 14 weeks on top of the compilation listing though its successor should be there in around 3 weeks time. Number 1 this week Single: Lady Gaga - Poker Face (1st week) Download: Lady Gaga - Poker Face (3rd week) Artist Album: Bell X1 - Blue Lights On The Runway (2nd week) Compilation Album: OST - Slumdog Millionaire (1st week)
February 28, 200916 yr Great, thank you! It seems that the Irish charts are more different then usual than the UK at the moment. Great for Gaga on singles, although I actually didn't notice that she was number one on albums! Ireland has good taste! BTW what's with Taylor Swift flopping? I thought country was popular in Ireland... :unsure:
February 28, 200916 yr Great for Gaga, Poker Face really deserves all the success it's getting. Poor Taylor :(
February 28, 200916 yr Author BTW what's with Taylor Swift flopping? I thought country was popular in Ireland... :unsure: Meant to mention that in my commentary! It is surprisingly low.....
February 28, 200916 yr Any Bell X1 fans here???i usually love them and the new singke the great defector is brilliant but the album is a huge huge huge disappointment
February 28, 200916 yr Author Have the previous Bell X1 albums but not a huge fan (though I did download the new single). Haven't heard any of the other new tracks yet!
March 1, 200916 yr the new single th egreat defector is great but the rest of the album is so forgetable i loved the last album especially flame hwich i think at keast deserved to be a top 10 hit,,shaly fan do you know anywhere to find out prvious album chart positions for ireland
March 1, 200916 yr Yes!! Poker Face finally No.1!! I love it so much, my favourite song of the year so far. Dare I say it might be a bit better than Just Dance? I don't know if Poker Face will be able to hold on though, it's weeks away from a physical release yet and it's gonna face a strong challenge from Flo Rida what with the video now being released.
March 1, 200916 yr Can't believe U2 were No.1 last week, awful song! And I'm very surprised that Kelly Clarkson hasn't broken the top ten yet. AND TAYLOR SWIFT! WTF?? I was expecting this to a No.1 contender!

March 1, 200916 yr Fantastic for "Poker Face"; I think it's great how Ireland have really taken to Lady Gaga! ^_^ I'm surprised at how our predicted top two for this week are so far down on the Irish charts, however. :o
March 1, 200916 yr the irish charts are so hard to predict sometimes i thought the same about kelly clarkson i was sure she would at worst be top 5 this week after last weeks number 12 debut and i was shocked lily allens the fear didnt peak about number 5 as it had done so well on download for weeks i can see taylor swift re climbing next week nd stay floating around the top 20 for a few weeks
March 7, 200916 yr and lady gagas love game is also new at number 49 she really is massive in ireland
March 8, 200916 yr So thrilled Love Game has already entered here! :cheer: Poker Face #1 again too :D The Saturdays entered at #17. Hopefully they climb after their performance on All Ireland Talent Show tonight. :)

Lady Gaga has a second week at No2 with ‘The Fame’, ahead of Bell X1 whose ‘Blue Lights On The Runway’ slips to No3 after debuting at No1 last week. The Prodigy and Kings Of Leon both drop one place to No4 and No5 respectively, while U2 have a re-entry at No6 for their singles collection ‘U218 Singles’ which is being promoted at retail alongside the new album. Lady Gaga’s ‘Poker Face’ has a second week at the top of the Singles Chart this week, but challengers are snapping at her heels: Flo Rida & Ke$ha climb from No5 to No2 with ‘Right Round’, T.I & Justin Timberlake leap from No13 to No3 with ‘Dead And Gone’ and Kelly Clarkson is up from No11 to No4 with ‘My Life Would Suck Without You’. This week’s highest new entry is at No17 for The Saturdays with their version of Depeche Mode’s 1981 hit ‘Just Can’t Get Enough’ in aid of Comic Relief. Shaky Fan's Commentary Another typo to be corrected - last week was Bell X1's fist at the top of the album chart with Blue Lights On The Runway and not their second. Despite being in England on Sunday afternoon I still managed to listed to Larry Gogan presenting the chart show courtesy of Sky which has both RTE1 and RTE2 available. Number 1 this week Single: Lady Gaga - Poker Face (2nd week) Download: Lady Gaga - Poker Face (4th week) Artist Album: U2 - No Line On The Horizon (1st week) Compilation Album: OST - Slumdog Millionaire (2nd week)
March 10, 200916 yr Ne 21 Laura Izibor - Shine I was expecting that. She's Irish. :P It will not do well in UK though... :( Edited March 10, 200916 yr by funmaker11
March 11, 200916 yr Hooray for GaGa! 2nd week at No.1!! It'll be a two horse race between her and Flo Rida next week, although I think GaGa will sneak a third week at No.1. Thank god Taylor Swift is in the top ten finally, about time! And I'm a bit surprised that The Saturdays managed to get to No.17 to be honest. Although they are currently on course to score their first ever Irish top ten hit. I'm sure they are ecstatic... :D
