Whereas the top 70 shows Vampire Weekend, Weezer, Bruce Springsteen, N-Dubz, and Akon...we are still ruling the world with Take That, as is Commercial Radio! Bryn Christopher is the week`s loser, so he isn`t so Fearless now! "You Don`t Mess With the Zohan" becomes top dvd film today. To be honest, I haven't seen it but I approve of Ace Of Base on the soundtrack :) Here's the retro: Radio Luxembourg's Next Week's Chart for this week in January 1975. 01 07 MS GRACE - THE TYMES 02 11 HELP ME MAKE IT THROUGH THE NIGHT - JOHN HOLT 03 10 JANUARY - PILOT 04 02 NEVER CAN SAY GOODBYE - GLORIA GAYNOR 05 01 DOWN DOWN - STATUS QUO 06 03 THE BUMP - KENNY 07 12 MORNING SIDE OF THE MOUNTAIN - DONNY AND MARIE OSMOND 08 04 STREETS OF LONDON - RALPH MCTELL 09 08 ARE YOU READY TO ROCK - WIZZARD 10 15 PROMISED LAND - ELVIS PRESLEY 11 09 CRYING OVER YOU - KEN BOOTHE 12 26 GOODBYE MY LOVE - GLITTER BAND 13 23 PURELY BY COINCIDENCE - SWEET SENSATION 14 22 SOMETHING FOR THE GIRL WITH EVERYTHING - SPARKS 15 06 STARDUST - DAVID ESSEX 16 05 I CAN HELP - BILLY SWAN 17 17 BOOGIE ON REGGAE WOMAN - STEVIE WONDER 18 25 SUGAR CANDY KISSES - MAC AND KATIE KISSOON 19 21 PLEASE MR POSTMAN - CARPENTERS 20 29 BLACK SUPERMAN (MUHAMMED ALI) - JOHNNY WAKELIN/KINSHASHA BAND 21 27 ROCK N`ROLL I GAVE YOU THE BEST YEARS OF MY LIFE - KEVIN JOHNSON 22 30 PLEASE TELL HIM THAT I SAID HELLO - DANA 23 NE FOOTSIE - WIGAN`S CHOSEN FEW 24 NE STAR ON A TV SHOW - STYLISTICS 25 28 ANGIE BABY - HELEN REDDY 26 18 ONLY YOU - RINGO STARR 27 NE IT MAY BE WINTER OUTSIDE - LOVE UNLIMITED 28 19 YOU CAN MAKE ME DANCE SING OR ANYTHING - FACES/ROD STEWART 29 NE NOW I`M HERE - QUEEN 30 NE SHOORAH SHOORAH - BETTY WRIGHT With a few re-makes here. GLORIA GAYNOR (did she ever do her own material), covering the Jackson Five 1970 hit. JOHN HOLT doing KRIS KRISSTOFFERSON. ELVIS doing CHUCK BERRY from 1965. RALPH MCTELL doing a re-working of his own 1968 recording. The CARPENTERS covering the MARVELETTES from 1961. BILLY SWAN doing ELVIS. RINGO STARR doing the HILLTOPPERS/PLATTERS etc. WIGAN`s CHOSEN FEW was a re-recorded version (with added chanting), of a 1968 original cut from the Northern Soul scene. PILOT featured a couple of members of the 1971 original line-up of the BAY CITY ROLLERS. JANUARY was surprisingly number one...in February! THE TYMES get their biggest UK hit ever, before that it was a vcover of Barbara Streisand's People, top 20 in 1969. KENNY once featured a young Keith Chegwin. MAC AND KATIE KISSOON recorded the first hit version of "CHIRPY CHIRPY CHEEP CHEEP" in 1971 (although Italy-based Scouser Lally Stott wrote and performed the original). SWEET SENSATION won tv talent show New Faces in 1974, there 2nd hit sounded too much like the first "SAD SWEET DREAMER". THE GLITTER BAND had their first solo outing away from the double G. KEN BOOTHE actually released a version of SANDIE SHAW`s "PUPPET ON A STRING" in the Summer of 1974...not a hit, surprise! "CRYING OVER YOU" was his second and last hit.I believe PUPPET ON A STRING and Ken is available to hear on YouTube. Pretty ghastly reggae version! DAVID ESSEX starred in the film "STARDUST", and also had a top ten single with it. Not a film that crops up on TV too much, but if it does have a look at it. SPARKS had their last top twenty hit until 1979's amazing "The Number One Song In Heaven" made it all the way to number... fourteen! JOHNNY WAKELIN did his first Ali record, paying homeage to the man himself. Johnny should have been bigger, and did all types of music on the album, ranging from soul to the original R N` B sound (not that stuff of today), and also reggae. QUEEN scored a 3rd hit. DANA returned, following 3 years of flops. Strange but true...JOHNNY MATHIS more or less split sales with Dana, with his re-make of Stylistics 1972 hit "I`M STONE IN LOVE WITH YOU". Both he, and Dana climbed the chart simultaneously...but peaked at 10, and 8 respectively. Although on Luxembourg Johnny got no higher than 16, and Dana peaked at 7. Both seesawing up and down the top 20. LOVE UNLIMITED were Barry White`s orchestral/vocal backing group. Thee ghasps of disappointment as KEVIN JOHNSON (who was well played, and tipped in 1975), fell short of the top 20, by a few points.
January 19, 200916 yr Cheers Tom. :) Looking like a very static week for singles. Good to see White Lies go top3 on the albums.
January 19, 200916 yr Author Yep, there's not much going on on the singles front. Personally I hope Lady Gage stays top 5 on albums, and I really hope Kudi doesn't beat her on singles...
January 19, 200916 yr Franz Ferdinand 38????? Though that was out on physicals this week. I would think it would be higher than this, even if it isn't that good.
January 19, 200916 yr Author Franz Ferdinand 38????? Though that was out on physicals this week. I would think it would be higher than this, even if it isn't that good. It is. Unfortunately the whole album leaked online a few weeks ago, and digital sales are disastrous...
January 19, 200916 yr Great for White Lies, but a real shame for Franz Ferdinand. :( I was thinking Ulysses would be their beiggest hit yet!
January 19, 200916 yr Author It should be bigger. Fingers crossed it will climb in the week. White Lies is actually a potential number one for next week... Surprised the single is out of the top 40 though.
January 19, 200916 yr I hope White Lies can take the #1 album this week, otherwise album sales are looking very dismal. On the single front it looks pretty static, I can't see FF cracking the top 10, to be honest they are more album sellers these days, and they have lost a lot of fanbase.
January 19, 200916 yr Sorry to be petty but i really couldn't stand the lower case letters :heehee:. Ah well... but it does Give Me Hell, which has made the top 50 :w00t: .
January 19, 200916 yr Author Sorry to be petty but i really couldn't stand the lower case letters :heehee:. Ah well... but it does Give Me Hell, which has made the top 50 :w00t: . Sorry, will fix later. I have been doing this at work, and I haven't had much time, still there until 10:30... As for The Fear, I presume that includes digital pre-orders.
January 19, 200916 yr Sorry, will fix later. I have been doing this at work, and I haven't had much time, still there until 10:30... As for The Fear, I presume that includes digital pre-orders. Oh no its fine. Seriously, please don't i'm just being fussy.
