A pity it's not permanent as he does a great job with constant references to the movement of the songs and pointing out the biggest climbers and fallers as well as telling us how many new entries there were. And as predicted Kingfishr return to the chart at 22.

Presumably they are expecting it to return to the chart following Lewis's sell-out show in Belfast during the week which was part of the Vital festival. That same festival also seems to be the reason for the early ending to the chart this week with Evanna coming out of the number 1 at 6:53 in order to fit in Rihanna's We Found Love which featured last night;s Vital headliner Calvin Harris. With an initial chart run of 22-20-out followed by a return a week later at 20 it looked like there was something funny going on with Kingfshr's The Sun Will Never Settle. It's 2nd spell in the chart was 20-23-21-23-23 and now it has dropped out again. I'd say there's a strong possibilty of a return next week and probaby around the 20 mark.

Ne 29 Steve Lacy - Oh Yeah Ne 49 Ashe - Stop The Wedding Interesting couple of new entries here! My first thought when I saw the song title Oh Yeah was the single by Ash. And then 20 places lower we find the similarly named Ashe.

Friday saw a relaunch of the IRMA website which now has a completely new look and has also incorporated the former irishcharts.ie databasse. My initial reaction was negative! I detest the way that the charts are displayed. I find it much easier to read the chart the way it was formatted on the previous site which was certainly a lot more user friendly when trying to copy the new chart positions over to a spreadsheet. However having now gone through the process the new format while not great is still workable. My main gripe would be that with the part of the screen I have in view you need to be careful not to read the last week and this week figures the wrong way round. While you are scrolling down the page a bit more often the routine is very similar for the most part. I do miss the ability to filter things Previously I would filter ** to get the songs that were starred out the previous week (which now appear to be listed simply as new entries) and then NEW would bring up all the new entries and re-entries. Now you have to go right down picking them out. And on the Homegrown chart the re-entries are being classed as new entries again. I do like the way the links to the different charts run across the top of the screen now though it would have been nice to have kept the charts in the same order as previously. Not too sure how I feel about the irishcharts.ie situation. While it's great that they have absorbed it into the main website there seems to be a lot more that they could do with it, adding dates of entry and weeks spent on the chart would be a start! To test it out I did a search for Shakin' Stevens. Only the first of the three pages actually shows (the other 2 give a 404 error) and looking at Merry Christmas Everyone which is the most recent entry all we are told is that it peaked at number 3 but no indication as to when or much else for that matter.

On at least 2 occasions Evanna referred to Movin' To The Sun as joint highest climber even though it was the only one to climb 12 places. I presume she miscounted for Dracula which climbed 11 places.** Even more bizarre was her constant references to a non existent bank holiday weekend. Tomorrow is a bank holiday but in the Republic of Ireland. **EDIT** That's what I get for not paying attention. I had put the wrong Taylor Swift song at 17. The other joint climber is therefore Fate of Ophelia up from 29 to 17. a bank holiday but in the Republic of Ireland.

In fact it's an hour or so of random songs with no sign of Will Leahy. No surprise to see The Green and Red of Mayo in the chart this week although I have to say number 6 was a lot higher than I thought it would be. It is joined in the chart by To Win Just Once which was released as a single back in July 1996. To Win Just Once made number 24 in the Irish charts that time so this week marks a new peak. It was also the band's 3rd and most successful Top 40 single in the UK where it peaked at 14. The band's greatest hits album "To Win Just Once" re-enters the Top 100 artist albums chart as well as the Independent Albums chart where it is joined by New Years Day, a recording of a concert at the Black Box in Galway. There are actually 2 versions of this album. Recorded on 1st January 2005 the band decided to use it as a fund raiser following the Asian Tsunami Disaster at the end of the previous month. 1000 numbered copies were released via the band's website under the title Live On New Year's Day. These came in a card sleeve and were signed by Davy Carton, Leo Moran and Anto Thistlethwaite. It was then re-issued a few months later in a standard sleeve with new artwork. Just to confuse things their previous album which had come out in 2004 was called Live In Galway and featured a recording of a different show at the same venue from July 2003 which was also released on DVD. Glen Hansard's sudden death in the early hours of Wednesday morning is also reflected in this week's charts. His Oscar winning song Falling Slowly - a duet with Marketa Irglova - returns to the chart at number 32 having originally peaked at number 2 back in 2008. Although IRMA credit it solely to Glen I can find no record of a solo version, there was a recording by his band the Frames which charted in 2006 and got to number 16.
