Posted May 5, 200916 yr http://i34.tinypic.com/24etc3b.png Chart Commentary Very strong top 3 in this weeks' chart, and admittedly all 3 could be no.1s (hint hint). Leading the troops are Passion Pit, who spend a 3rd consecutive week at the top with 'The Reeling' from their forthcoming album 'Manners' (which I hear has leaked). From what i've heard, 'Manners' is definately worth a punt as both singles and the songs i've heard from it are very good. In second place for a second week is Kasabian's 'Fire', still burning brightly (lulz) and a new entry hot off the press comes courtesy of Jamie T who is actually making his chart debut with 'Sticks n Stones' which is excellent. It's going to be released on the 29th of June as part of his EP with the same name, and young Jamie Treays also has an album due out later this year which, based on this evidence, may well be worth checking out. The Killers are this week's only climbers at 4 and Kasabian's other charted single begins its sad chart decline at 5. Numbers 6 through 9 are all fallers and need no explanation and there's a bonus new entry this week at 10 (though admittedly not a great one. Which is why it's at 10), from chart favourites the Manics who showcase their new material with the so-so 'Jackie Collins...'. Unlike Passion Pit and Jamie T, this one may be best left on the shelf. http://i40.tinypic.com/rh8n5g.png http://i36.tinypic.com/29z1nab.png 1: Passion Pit - The Reeling 3-1-1-1 http://i36.tinypic.com/29z1nab.png 2: Kasabian - Fire 2-2 http://i35.tinypic.com/141jlsi.png 3: Jamie T - Sticks n Stones New Entry http://i37.tinypic.com/2rcx5c8.png 4: The Killers - The World We Live In 6-6-4 http://i35.tinypic.com/2598x6v.png 5: Kasabian - Vlad The Impaler 2-2-2-3-5 http://i42.tinypic.com/2jg2b9z.png http://i35.tinypic.com/2598x6v.png 6: The Maccabees - Love You Better 3-3-5-4-6 http://i35.tinypic.com/2598x6v.png 7: Bloc Party - Signs (Armand Van Helden Remix) 1-1-1-1-3-5-7 http://i35.tinypic.com/2598x6v.png 8: Maximo Park - The Kids Are Sick Again 5-4-5-7-8 http://i35.tinypic.com/2598x6v.png 9: Delphic - Counterpoint 2-4-6-7-8-9 http://i35.tinypic.com/141jlsi.png 10: Manic Street Preachers - Jackie Collins Existential Question Time New Entry http://i33.tinypic.com/2re72wh.png 2009 02 wks 12/01/09 - 25/01/09 Fleet Foxes - Mykonos 02 wks 26/01/09 - 08/02/09 The Killers - Spaceman 04 wks 09/02/09 - 08/03/09 Friendly Fires - Skeleton Boy 02 wks 09/03/09 - 22/03/09 Doves - Kingdom Of Rust 04 wks 23/03/09 - 19/04/09 Bloc Party - Signs (Armand Van Helden Remix) 03 wks 20/04/09 - present Passion Pit - The Reeling
