14th September 2025 It's taken 3 years or so but Chappell Roan finally gets that chart-topper with the emotional The Subway holding off a challenge from Vance Joy, Divine Feelings is fabulous and up to 2. The Biggest climber, though, is Saint Etienne grabbing a second top 5 of 2025, along with Confidence Man on Brand New Me. Check out the video, I love it. Confidence Man take their 3rd charting hit into the top 10 for a second in 3 years, while Saint Etienne are on 9 top 10's in 33 years. Kim Carnes returns Bette Davis Eyes into the top 10 for a first time in 44 years. Good Neighbours leap-frog themselves, and Sabrina Carpenter gets the highest entry with Tears at 62, just ahead of Damiano David grabbing a 6th track inside 12 months, with added Tyla and Nile Rodgers on Talk To Me - that'll be another guest-starring extension of his Chic-tastic career for Nile to not far off 48 years! Artemas follows-up his chart-topper with Eat Me Alive, Loaded Honey swap one album track for a new one - Hello Stranger is short n sweet. Saint Etienne also drop an album track in Dancing Heart, Sophie Ellis-Bextor adds another with Stay On Me, Blue get another unexpected return with the rather good One Last Time, they all get a share of vocal duties in the blustery video, and finally The Weeknd has a new video out but it doesnt seem to be on download - so Society gets bottom slot for that. 1 2 1 7 THE SUBWAY - Chappell Roan 405000 2 10 2 2 DIVINE FEELINGS - Vance Joy 157000 3 3 1 14 TOKYO RAIN - Loaded Honey 1263000 4 46 4 2 BRAND NEW ME - Saint Etienne & Confidence Man 77750 5 1 1 2 ELENORE - The Turtles 230000 6 4 1 8 12 TO 12 - sombr 485150 7 7 1 14 OVER - Loaded Honey 965750 8 5 1 9 WALK OF FAME - Miley Cyrus featuring Brittany Howard 925200 9 6 4 9 FIVE MORE SECONDS - Seafret featuring KT Tunstall 356250 10 13 10 9 BETTE DAVIS EYES - Kim Carnes 172350 11 9 3 10 HARD TO BE HAPPY - Rob Thomas 484400 12 18 12 5 THE HIVES FOREVER FOREVER THE HIVES - The Hives 89600 13 35 13 3 SELF CONTROL - Laura Branigan 66600 14 21 14 7 REALLY LOVE - Loaded Honey 144600 15 8 8 7 SPIES - Robbie Williams 165250 16 12 10 9 JUPITER - almost monday featuring Jordana 269800 17 29 17 3 AT NIGHT - Shakedown 53200 18 20 18 5 G.O.A.T.

Hi SSP!🙂 That Prince Royce part-Spanish cover of Backstreet Boys is nice, South America is a bit far to travel to see him though 😄Sam Feldt and Ingrosso just outside the top 10, Empire Of The Sun and Damiano David top 20, Robbie, sombr, Steve Aoki, Chappell Roan, blondish, Gin Blossoms, Rita, sombr, Younotus, Shaboozey, Sabrina, Gaga new in, Sigrid, Ella Eyre, Will Young, and Nathan Evans all good new entries down the lower end 🤩 great chart! 😎

Hi SSP! 🙂 Ooh glad you rate Elenore, thought it was just me left a fan of it! 🥰 thanks for the climbers picks and new entries! cheers! 😎

Hi AH! 🙂 Hope Break Part 2 is relaxing/fun/delete as appropriate 🙂 Great chart as always though there's a chunk of mid-top 40 tracks I havent heard yet. Now, if we can just get Radio 2 to playlist Saint Etienne's Brand New Me - if they can do Wolf Alice and Chappell Roan, they can do Saint Etienne as well, there should be pent-up goodwill amongst a lot of the listeners, and it has Confidence Man on board for newer music fans. Have a great holiday! 😎

Thanks Jade, well done Rollo on the 39, and I see we all fell for Perry Como 😄I thought it was For The Good Times, but TBH it's difficult to stay awake long enough on his 1973 hits to recognise a clip 😇 round 1: 36 Take That doh! Every bloody time I draw a blank on that one 😆 round 2: 39 3 in 10: caribbean queen, red light spells danger, love really hurts without you

Hi AH! 🙂 Ooh another week off well done! Hope its more interesting than mine, painting walls with primer to hide water stains which didnt work, need oil-based primer it seems, doh! Oh, and our airport has announced a strike the day I'm off to Spain in 13 days, so thats up in the air (or not!), tch! Glad you know Elenore after all, my inner 10-year-old still adores it! 😄Glad you like Haircut, I love the Rev, and this one is more upbeat than usual (hence the radio 2 playlisting), and I'm sure lyrically relateable to many😇hope it peaks higher than mine, everything is peaking too low in a crowded chart - it feels more like a top 10 to me but couldnt quite get there. Brand New Me is fab, a delightful track with a fab video taking me back to my beloved Archies and Josie & The Pussycat TV show videos, very hanna-barbera! We need a mainstream pop show that will play new videos and plug stuff that hasnt been in the charts for 2 years! The album is quite good too. I hope they make a comeback sometime 🥺 Golden is a song of two halves, the intro is great and the chorus which will always remind of a 6-year-old singing it and loving the movie, so I'm feeling kindly towards it, hah! It would have had no chance without the film though. Not heard that other sombr track yet! thanks as always for the in-depth analysis and comments! ❤️ cheers! 😎

Hey Sven! 🙂 Good to see Golden at 1, and Chappell not far behind climbing! Olivia rocketing up, I prob need to pay more attention to her stuff, it's always pleasant. sombr up and Tears new in high, are highlights, Soda Pop is fun and in the Breakers faves from Gaga, Olly, Loaded Honey ❤️ The 90's seem a longer time ago now, I used to think they felt quite recent! Faves include 7 Seconds, Shine, Kiss From A Rose, and Enigma's, all number ones for me, but also goodies from Big Mountain, Prince, B52's and Regulate. fab charts! 😎

Hey Sven! 🙂 Thanks for the picks and glad you like the newies from Gaga and Saint Etienne 🤩 cheers! 😎

Hi Sergej! 🙂 Surprise new number one there! its all over for the long-run on top 😯Just heard Wolf Alice on Radio 2, seems nice, and Olivia Dean rocketing up ditto. 12 to 12 up and Tears holding, Damiano David up to 50 and Gaga nice high new entry in, I love the verse more than the chorus on that one. 🤩Cyril holding and fun to see Soda Pop pop in 🙂 great chart! 😎

Hi Sergej! 🙂 Thanks for all the picks, nice to see oldies amongst your fave climbers too, yay! 🙂 cheers! 😎

Hey James! 🙂 Drake knocks off Manchild oops! Chappell Roan doing well at 4, she's gone all the way in mine, hooray! Cascada top 5 too for a great top 5 👍Dior up, 12 to 12 almost top 10, so close! Golden hanging in there and Olivia going 20 is nice, so to speak 🙂the other 2 sombr tracks are my tops of the bottom 20, great chart! 😎

Hello James! 🙂 The Subway may well be Chappell's best record to date, its a shame its not had a post-number-one boost up the charts yet! I must check out that Steve Aoki revamp of Cascada 👍Manchild still seems the best track on the album (at least what Ive heard so far) and I'm not fed up of it so far which is always a good sign long-term, I'm still playing it. Golden still creeping up slowly, it's fun, though I'm not target audience 😄undressed may pop into my charts in a few weeks, I do like it. thanks for the comments and picks! 😎

welcome back Jade, hope the hol was fab! 🙂 round 1: 36 (boyzone not drum) round 2: 33 (perry como wrong song) 3 in 10: tonight, hangin tough, you got it

Lose Yourself is a powerful track, but I prefer t'other Eminem number one of the year, and Stan.
