Posted January 20, 200916 yr Chart commentary. Yes, change has finally come on this momentous day. After eight long, long weeks :lol: , Take That finally left the number one position in the Radio Newtown Top 20, to be replaced by Girls Aloud, who get their second successive chart topper - and at last the first new number one of 2009 - with 'The Loving Kind'. Many thought that the girls' chance of getting to the top had gone when, having gone straight in at number four, their single climbed to number two last week, but they were merely giving Gary and the boys one more week of chart topping glory, before today's well-deserved inauguration. James Morrison and Nelly Furtado stay at number three with 'Broken Strings', while leaping up an amazing thirteen places to four, thanks to ITV4's 1970s football repeats, is David Ordini's 'La Soirée', an instrumental better known as the theme from The Big Match. Could it top the chart next week? Well, even if it doesn't, this week it beats the likes of Britney Spears (5) and Beyoncé (6), who nevertheless see strong songs continue to climb. As always, interest surrounds the new entries in the lower half of the 20. Following on from the success of King of Prussia, another North American underground band with a jangly guitar sound, Of Montreal, go straight in at 12 with their current release, 'An Eluardian Instance', an interesting EP with catchy tracks. Meanwhile, Lily Allen climbs to 15, hoping to live up to expectation with her new release, 'The Fear', while at 16 there's a big jump for Kevin Rudolf's collaboration with Lil Wayne, 'Let It Rock', with a video eerily reminiscent of the watered down offering 25 years ago by Frankie Goes To Hollywood after their original promo for 'Relax' was banned... and whaddya know, 'Relax' is back in the Top 20 for the Frankies, brought in by an ingenious advert for a 25-year old airline. But for now, all eyes are on Girls Aloud, once again top of the tree...
