16 19 GO FOR IT - JOEY B. ELLIS/TYNETTA HARE

17 NE DON`T GO MESSIN`WITH MY HEART - MANTRONIX

18 NE LOSING MY RELIGION - R.E.M.

19 11 3AM ETERNAL - KLF/CHILDREN OF THE REVOLUTION

20 09 OUTSTANDING - KENNY THOMAS

 

15 in the 20 for Luxembourg in 1991. They missed with Ride - Today Forever, Ned`s Atomic Dustbin - Happy, The One And Only - Chesney Hawkes, Rhythm Of My Heart - Rod Stewart, and Over Rising - Charlatans...the first 4 turned up, on the following week at 7, 15, 12, and 16 respectively...as they apparently did not rate The Charlatans much! :teresa: It was quite a memorable year though...with the last recesssion on it`s early days. CRAZY FOR YOU was actually a midweek number one. The CLASH rerelease just sneaked into the 20, in 1982. The SIMPSONS provided the comedy...as did HALE AND PACE, or not?! That one was (of course) COMIC RELIEF 1991. A much re-mixed and covered CANDI STATON piece "YOU GOT THE LOVE", which first appeared in the late 70s in original form (a UK flop)...was having it`s first taste of success here. Dancey/Trancey with XPANSIONS, NOMAD...a slightly different version of CAROLE KING``s 1971 toptenner for QUARTZ, and a first for DINA CARROLL. The over rereleased "ALRIGHT NOW"...I got sick of that in 1970! Let alone 1973, 1978, 1991 etc! Although this 1991 record, was not entirely the same as the 3 previous releases. LIVING COLOR were probably the best about. Unfortunately follow ups did not take too well. MASSIVE were (again, of course) MASSIVE ATTACK. OLETA ADAMS hung around forever...the airplay on it was enormous, and probably the only current chart record played on Radio Two! The line-up of R2, absolutely atrocioius with DEREK JAMESON, DAVID JACOBS, GLORIA HUNNIFORD, HUGHIE GREENE...Hell! One good thing in March 1991 was the return of ED STEWART. We mustn`t forget early days for R.E.M. Yeah, RAPID EYE MOVEMENT! KLF had help from the CHILDREN OF THE REVOLUTION...and you can`t fool the "Children Of The Revolution", of course! The Radio Luxembourg "Next Week`s Top 20" feature was presented by SHAUN TILLEY in 1991, on a Sunday night at 9pm.

Thanks Dave :thumbup:

 

Shockingly low debut for Islands In The Stream... :o

 

(Sad for September personally, but I sort of knew it was coming...)

Kelly BELOW Taylor Swift?! :o

Wasn't expecting that at all! Shame for Peter too, hopefully he'll make at least top 60

I laugh if the second Comic Relief single gets top 20, but its looking unlikely

It becomes the number 2 physical today behind Saturdays, but infront of T.I. at 3 and Oasis at 4.

 

I think this is right, because Dave didn't chart it at all last week...
It's the stupid way it's listed on iTunes. On other sites it's fine. And the physical will surely be everywhere.

Thanks for this! :D

 

This made me LOL though:

 

03 01 JUST CAN`T GET ENOUGH - SUGABABES

 

:lol:

No, it's fantastic because it means it won't be number one. I bloody hate it! :puke2:

01 52 RIGHT ROUND - FLO RIDA

 

Isn't this up from 06 not 52?

No, we didn`t chart it in the 50 last week because it didn`t appear in the top 30 on iTunes until late Monday PM.

Kelly deserves to be ABOVE Taylor IMO. I adont mind that U2 stays at number 1 because its a well known fact they are huge album sellers but Fearless has nothing on AIEW...

Here's the Top 10 you had for last week, Dave.

01 NE JUST CAN`T GET ENOUGH - SATURDAYS

02 02 MY LIFE WOULD SUCK WITHOUT YOU - KELLY CLARKSON

You know what I think I`m losing the plot! I didn`t look back to last week`s thread. I was taking it from a scribbled bit of paper! :thumbup: It was indeed number 6 last week. I took a position from a Sunday evening quota, by mistake! (Goes to edit)!!!!!!!!!!
