Friday 17th December 2010 Everybody's caught in traffic it seems...Although I am miffed because Reading Transport told me Buses are running half an hour late due to heavy traffic. I thought about this & think how can buses run half an hour late, when they run a ten minute service? Surely if they are running 30 minutes late, then no one would notice!

Although it's only number 7 for the week on iTunes. So, that means a bunch of nobs are buying it in the shops & in the snow too...Coldplay are the fastest grower cracking in some 16,000 buyers in less than 48 hours. Could be top 10 by Sunday. Who are these boring people that download the same tired old classics every December, we ask...Are they listeners to the worst Radio station on earth i.e. Gold? Even more mindboggling the kids that think Rihanna has a good singing voice! ;)

I like the way you say HER! Probable fact, they have just as many gay male fans. Especially with Robbie back. If you go through the top 50 though, there are not that many songs that would be purchased by the 30-50 age group. Which is supposed to be the Radio 2 listener, but apparently isn't. I'm told I should be listening to Independant Radio. Some mistake surely! I come to the conclusion that there isn't a Station for me. Both Melody Radio & Prime Time Radio were sold off. The only option at the moment is Smooth Radio & it is pretty naff, with the same songs going round & round. Then some nonchalant called Dave Lincoln trying to tell me that Elvis Presley's biggest hit was "Can't Help Falling In Love". Surely it was "It's Now Or Never"? What have we got in that might have been bought by that age range of 30-50? Possible contenders: X Factor Finalists Ellie Goulding Olly Murs Take That Adele Cee Lo Green Westlife Gyptian Beatles Script Shakespears Sister Beady Eye 12 out of 50. Almost 25%. Consider again though the men from the women. Possible purchases by Women: & also X Factor viewers (a known fact that the show has more female viewers) X Factor Finalists Olly Murs Adele Cee Lo Green Westlife Take That Shakespears Sister So, on the male side we're left with: Gyptian Beatles Script Beady Eye Less than 10% of males over 30 bother. All that though on speculation. Views appreciated! ;) I think it might be a clever idea if the powers that be, did an Oldies Top 40 each week. Which would be quite fun, for those that download old songs, rather than the latest ones.

They are classified as Family films. But they'd be included anyway. It's mainly titles that are under 12s & those that don't get rented. All beyond my control. Compared to a certain "Official" chart, they also miss out Download sales of those cheap cover song versions, in the Singles chart. Then on the Album chart they relegate Compilations. My lot don't, so they are all in the same boat if you look at it. The charts are a touch of a farce, whatever way you look at it, & I've said it for years. Some people are easily pleased, others not.

Friday 10th December Do you know somebody rang me earlier & asked what's going on at Music Week today? Today is their Xmas Party...So expect they will be reaching for the bismuth later, because they just can't handle their drink...these youngsters can never handle it, can they?! :puke2: The Top Books 01 01 JAMIE'S 30 MINUTE MEALS - JAMIE OLIVER 02 02 GUINESS WORLD RECORDS 03 03 A SIMPLE'S LIFE - ALEKSANDR ORLOV 04 08 KITCHEN - NIGELLA LAWSON 05 04 LIFE AND LAUGHING - MICHAEL MCINTYRE 06 05 FAMILY - MARTINA COLE 07 06 ZERO HOUR - ANDY MCNAB 08 09 LIFE - KEITH RICHARDS 09 10 WINTER GHOSTS - KATE MOSSE 10 12 WHAT YOU SEE IS WHAT YOU GET - ALAN SUGAR The Top Games 01 01 CALL OF DUTY: BLACK OPS 02 02 ASSASINS CREED: BROTHERHOOD 03 03 GRAND TURISMO 5 04 04 FIFA 11 05 07 WWE SMACKDOWN VS RAW 06 05 Wii PARTY 07 06 JUST DANCE 2 08 08 HALO: REACH 09 09 PROFESSOR LAYTON AND THE LOST FUTURE 10 10 FOOTBALL MANAGER 2011 The Top Dvd Films 01 NE TWILIGHT SAGA: ECLIPSE 02 NE INCEPTION 03 NE SHREK FOREVER AFTER 4 04 01 SEX AND THE CITY 2 05 03 THE A TEAM 06 02 BEAUTY AND THE BEAST 07 04 TOY STORY 3 08 05 HOW TO TRAIN YOUR DRAGON 09 06 STEP UP 3 10 07 KARATE KID The Top UK Box Office Films 01 01 HARRY POTTER/DEATHLY HALLOWS 02 NE MEGA MIND 03 02 UNSTOPPABLE 04 04 DUE DATE 05 NE MONSTERS 06 05 THE AMERICAN 07 03 LONDON BOULEVARD 08 06 DESPICABLE ME 09 07 GIRL WHO KICKED THE HORNET'S NEST 10 NE WARRIORS WAY The Top TV Programmes 01 01 ZZZZ FACTOR 14.42 02 02 STRICTLY COME DANCING 12.43 03 05 EASTENDERS 10.60 04 03 I'M A NON-ENTITY...GET OUT OF HERE! 10.51 05 04 CORONATION ST 10.14 06 07 EMMERDALE 8.14 07 09 APPRENTICE 8.07 08 08 COUNTRYFILE 7.62 09 10 MERLIN 7.12 10 14 ANTIQUES ROADSHOW 6.51 11 11 HARRY HILL 6.17 12 15 HOLBY 5.88 13 19 CASUALTY 5.64 14 21 GARROW'S LAW 5.52 15 22 6 O'CLOCK NEWS 5.27 16 13 ONE SHOW 5.25 17 RE BBC NEWS SUN 5.18 18 RE FAMILY FORTUNES 5.04 19 NE UEFA CHAMPIONS LEAGUE SOCCER 4.92 20 25 HAVE I GOT NEWS FOR YOU 4.92 21 28 YOU'VE BEEN FRAMED 4.67 22 23 TURN BACK TIME 5.07 23 RE NEW TRICKS 4.61 24 26 MATCH OF THE DAY 4.58 25 12 10 O'CLOCK NEWS 4.54 26 RE LOTTERY 4.44 27 RE ITV WEEKEND NEWS 4.10 28 30 ITV NEWS 3.93 29 RE NEWS AT 10 3.58 30 RE UNIVERSITY CHALLENGE 3.42 Only one thing to say about tv, aint the?

It ain't a problem, it's just the way MRIB used to do it. So, we follow suit as all the charts we compile are done in the old MRIB way, as the whole tread tributes all those charts that used to appear in the likes of the Sunday People, News Of The World, & Mail On Sunday etc. All kids titles would appear in their own dvd chart, as like TV related shows do too. It can't be compared to the singles chart, as most people who buy singles aren't adults anyway. Hence Reggie Yates presentation on Radio One. You can quite easily say if it wasn't for the under 18s, the singles chart wouldn't exist anyway...probably! :lol: I mean it's not like the Singles of yesteryear, when a big age range actually bought singles. The truth is...Today there is no big age range buying singles. Except when certain artists release singles i.e. your Westlife, & the other nobs that think X Factor is better than sliced bread.

If we did, there would be times when the top 10 would be full of cartoons & lots of other animated stuff. And given the fact our top ten is based on rentals as well as sales, proper Kid stuff hardly ever does that well on rentals anyway.

Here is the Top 75 shot down or lowdown & I have a streaming cold. So apologies for errors! The Chart put together by our friends at DTR with the top 40 based on Physical/Download sales up until 5pm on Friday 26th Nov. With the 41-75 based on Downloads only.

Loathe the man but love the music. Bit partial to Kiki Dee too, & Matt Monro's "And You Smiled" was the vocal version of Eye Level, which of course was the theme to Thames TV's Van Der Valk starring the late Barry Foster. Infact all the TV & records were great in 1973. Unforunately 37 years on, we haven't actually got any decent TV & the radio is pretty crap too, mainly because of the over censoring of everything...when apparently it is quite ok to swear on tv these days. No, it ain't clever to do so anywhere...I even heard a manager in a shop effing the other day.

I've never seen any figures for Digital Pre-Orders. Although they apparently exist. So, it is physicals only.

Blame the BBC. This used to be a Sunday morning show! What ever happened to Sunday entertainment? Absolutely disgraceful. Especially if you like watching various animals pulled to pieces before cooking in some editions.

The hyped up Take That & Robbie's return don't make number one. Got to be the biggest hyped up dosh of the year. Although, the album will top the chart next week, with Pink at 2 we think. A few problems will be around with this 2 Minute Silence thing...Many Radio Stations have a back up system & after a few seconds of any silence, the back up system starts up & plays music! We certainly can't even feature it in Spain, it's quite impossible!

Up.

http://www.heartfmspain.com And it definately ain't anything like Heart in the UK. Infact, the UK one just hasn't got any heart in it. :lol: HeartFM Spain is more for the Expat. Those that used to live in the UK, or those on holiday.

Only distributed to radio. It's a shame though. They could've got some extra sales had it been released, & even to the Eminem fans too. That's the one we play on the Fresh Hit40 on HeartFM Spain, Sundays at 4pm.

But the ratio of Andre Vs Coyle must have been won by Andre on the overall Physical sale...I mean not that high on iTunes last week. It came out as overall number 37 on the download chart, became number 2 physical & reached 14 on the R1 Chart. What we got on Coyle? Number 4 Physical, top 30 overall on itunes for the week. Although these 2 both have the common denominator of the big ego. Did you hear Coyle on the Radio last week? My goodness, she think's she's summat! As for Greasy Andre, I think we've covered the reason of the low sale. People are sick of egotistic, so called "stars". Plus you have to be about 12 to want to buy them in the first place. :teresa:

Must go to iMesh then :lol: Radio Stations have this special 12inch vinyl copy. I've got it.

Cheers Tom. Obviously Tesco don't have as many customers as Asda i.e. Andre! I've added it to the Physical Top Ten, by proxy!

Why is Eminem credited? Maybe because he's on it!

I didn't even know there was a physical available. Is it exclusive to some Supermarket?
