Bizarrely just after back announcing Prospa and Cloonee's song being a new entry she then proceeded to tell us that she was about to play this week's firsst new entry (even ignoring that Billie Jean is technically a re-entry). Soon after she mentioned that Blessing had gone back up 9 places so it looks like there is at least a top 50. Maybe it's just me but her obsession with Taylor Swift is really annoying. And before / after both sombr tracks were played this week we heard the same interview snippet of Taylor saying that she is a big fan of his songwriting. Evanna also randomly played a clip from a Michael Buble interview from the BBC.

It was a case of if something can go wrong it will. First up on Saturday night I had the singles added onto the spreadsheet but the checksum figures I have added were indicating that there was an error somewhere. Normally it's a quick fix with a typo to be corrected but this time I was having no luck. In the end I gave up and decided to start from scratch on Sunday evening. That didn't happen. During the NI Hit 40 broadcast I discovered I had run out of insulin and I had an unplanned 70 mile trip to a relative to pick up a spare that I had left with them for emergencies. Having nearly got everything sorted I discovered an error on the artist album chart. Back in week 8 U2 were at 97 and Michael Jackson was at 99. The following week I placed Jacko at 77 instead of U2 and in subsequent weeks he had been listed instead of them. Hopefully that is everything present and correct now.

This might seem slightly odd but last month Downtown Radio celebrated it's 50th birthday and this is coinciding with a move to brand new premises from the station's home since it started broadcasting in 1976.

Sorry if this has been mentioned before but I have done a search and didn't see anything. A new chart related book (Every UK Hit Single 1980) was published on 11th February. The complete story of 1980’s UK Top 40 - 370 singles, 225 artists, 25 chart toppers. Step back into 1980, a year when pop music was shifting into a new decade of sounds and styles. This book takes you on a nostalgic journey through every single that reached the UK Top 40, presented in the order they first appeared in the charts. Each entry combines chart facts, artist information and captivating behind‑the‑scenes details. Whether you’re a record collector, a chart watcher or reliving the soundtrack of your youth, this is your guide to one unforgettable year in pop. Available as a paperback (£14.99) and Kindle book (£9.99) the plan is to cover the remainder of the decade in further volumes.
