Listeners to Big Top 40, may have been a bit miffed this week...because at the beginning of the programme, Lady GaGa was said to be at number 10 for the week on iTunes. That was tripe, as no way could che have been! It most certainly should of been Rihanna`s "Rude Boy". But obviously this proves what a load a nonsense that chart really is.

Almost hard to believe that Monday is 1st March, where did January/February go...In the words of Barbara Dickson "January February Don`t You Hang Around"...No, they don`t!

The Top TV, back then (Figures based on number of Homes, rather than Individuals) 01 THIS IS YOUR LIFE 8.90...Pat Reid (British Army Officer/Colditz prisoner/author) is Eamonn Andrews culprit 02 LOVE STORY 7.80...an ITV Anthology series dealing with various couples problems with the likes of Michael Brandon/David Doyle/Pamela Franklin/Jodie Foster 03 CILLA 7.70...Saturday night, and entertainment from Cilla Black...springing various surprise visits to someone`s house too 04 OPPORTUNITY KNOCKS 7.60...Hughie Green resides over the talent or not of contestants. 1973, saw Peters & Lee win the show 05 A MAN CALLED IRONSIDE 7.50...the BBC saw fit to change the title of "Ironside", when originally broadcasted....never knew why? 06 FATHER DEAR FATHER 7.40...the hilarious Thames TV sitcom, with Patrick Cargill as divorced Patrick Glover (writer) and the mis-adventures of his daughters and not forgetting the incredible "Nanny" played by Noel Dyson 07 CORONATION STREET (MON) 7.30...Joanna Lumley joins the cast as Elaine Perkins (Ken Barlow`s new girlfriend) 08 CORONATION STREET (WEDS) 7.10 09 THE MORECAMBE AND WISE SHOW 7.00...Eric & Ernie`s kiddishness of the BBC 10 RIVALS OF SHERLOCK HOLMES 6.90...not exactly Sherlock, it featured contempories who could have past for the man 11 CROSSROADS (MON) 6.70...finally broadcasted by the entire ITV network, after a 9 year start on ATV. Granada were releuctant to screen it, due to the rival locally made Soap...CS of course! 12 NEAREST AND DEAREST 6.70...Granada Sitcom with Hilda Baker (I must get a little hand put on this watch), and Jimmy Jewel at "Pledge`s Pickles". The Factory they inherited. Hilda as Nelly Pledge, oft noted to say to her cousin in-law "Have You Been, Walter?" 13 BLESS THIS HOUSE 6.70...the best ever sitcom from ITV, and one that never ages. The familly problems of the Abbot household with Sid James/Diana Coupland/Sally Geeson/Robin Stewart all inspiring today`s stuff like "My Family". ITV could get millions of viewers by repeating it, but don`t...Idiots! 14 PUBLIC EYE 6.70...Alfred Burke plays investigator "Frank Marker"...another series that should be repeated instead of endless repeats of "The Sweeney" et al 15 TORPEDO BOY 6.60...a BBC showing, that escapes me...Anyone??? 16 NINE O`CLOCK NEWS 6.50 17 CROSSROADS (TUES) 6.40 18 COUNTRY MATTERS 6.40...Granada series based on stories by H.E. Bates & A.E. Coppard "The Simple Life" in this edition 19 THE ADVENTURES OF BLACK BEAUTY 6.30...the kids tv series on Sundays at 4.50pm, with Judi Bowker and the horse that was also used on the Lloyds Bank adverts 20 CROSSROADS 6.30 Also on TV in 1973, were the unfortunate rise of Afternoon Soaps with Emmerdale Farm/General Hospital & another entitled "Rooms"...dealing with the tenants at 35 Mafeking Terrace. It went out on Tuesdays & Wednesdays, with different characters appearing each week. The constant twosome were the 2 in the basement "Dorothy" the landlady & "Clive". Other people who stayed there were the likes of John Duttine & Jan Francis. It was axed in 1977. Also featured on ITV at 12.30pm, were the likes of "Rainbow" hosted by David Cooke (the original host)/Bungle the Bear/Zippy the zipped mouthed martian. This was part of a 4 week fare with Inigo Pipkin/Mr Trimble & Hickory House followed by the likes of Rupert Bear/Larry The Lamb & A Handful Of Songs. That was all followed by the "News At One" with Leonard Parkin. The BBC childrens set at 4pm, brought us "Play School", "Jackanory", "Blue Peter" at 4.45 and the likes of "Boss Cat" at 5.15...Boss Cat being the cartoon series "Top Cat", changed by the BBC because there was a cat food called Top Cat...Other days gave us "Wacky Races & Space Kidettes", "Vision On", & "Crackerjack" with Michael Aspel/Jacqueline Clark/Peter Glaze & Don McClean. In the "Watch With Mother" spot at 1.45pm, new was "Fingerbobs" with the super-suave Rick Jones, along with Fingermouse, that wonderful Tortoise fingerpuppet called "Flash", & the bird "Gulliver". Great stuff! And with Bob Baker (alias Roger Scott) on Radio One, you couldn`t go wrong. The Top Albums in Feb 1973: The 8th LP from Elton, containing the rather fatuous "High Flying Bird". The album spending 7 weeks at number one. Carly Simon having to be content with number 2. The rather dodgy "A Clockwork Orange", which I still find hard to watch, and the over use of Russian slang "soomka" is one, and "malchik" another. The Elvis disc was in quadrophonic sound, reminding me of the days when Radio One did went quadrophonic on a Saturday afternoon, with the likes of Alan Freeman. 01 01 DON`T SHOOT ME I`M ONLY THE PIANO PLAYER - ELTON JOHN 02 02 NO SECRETS - CARLY SIMON 03 03 SLAYED - SLADE 04 04 MOVING WAYS - FOCUS 05 05 BACK TO FRONT - GILBERT O`SULLIVAN 06 07 WHO DO WE THINK WE ARE - DEEP PURPLE 07 06 FOCUS 3 - FOCUS 08 08 PILE DRIVER - STATUS QUO 09 09 GREATEST HITS - SIMON AND GARFUNKEL 10 15 ROCK ME BABY - DAVID CASSIDY 11 10 THE STRAUSS FAMILY - CYRIL ORNADEL AND THE LONDON SYMPHONY ORCHESTRA 12 13 THE SIX WIVES OF HENRY VIII - RICK WAKEMAN 13 18 BURSTING AT THE SEAMS - STRAWBS 14 11 CATCH BULL AT FOUR - CAT STEVENS 15 NE BLUEPRINT - RORY GALLAGHER 16 16 RISE AND FALL OF ZIGGY STARDUST - DAVID BOWIE 17 17 TALKING BOOK - STEVIE WONDER 18 NE A CLOCKWORK ORANGE - SOUNDTRACK 19 12 HEARTBREAKER - FREE 20 NE ALOHA FROM HAWAII VIA SATELLITE - ELVIS PRESLEY The Top Singles in Feb 1973: 01 01 PART OF THE UNION - STRAWBS...Hudson & Ford and co, just missing on a Radio One chart-topper 02 02 BLOCKBUSTER - SWEET...becoming one of the biggest hits for some years at that point 03 NE CUM ON FEEL THE NOIZE - SLADE...bad spelling all over the shop for Noddy and the boys 04 04 SYLVIA - FOCUS...over to Holland, and that rock sound...all instrumental of course 05 06 CINDY INCIDENTALLY - FACES...Rod Stewart taking his rock cred seriously 06 03 DO YOU WANNA TOUCH ME - GARY GLITTER...the king of glam, with the 3rd hit 07 07 WHISKY IN THE JAR - THIN LIZZY...Phil Lynott and co, with an old song even then, and the first uk hit 08 13 BABY I LOVE YOU - DAVE EDMUNDS...former Love Sculpture lead, Dave always nicked everybody elses songs 09 10 LOOKING THROUGH THE EYES OF LOVE - PARTRIDGE FAMILY...David Cassidy all over tv 10 05 DANIEL - ELTON JOHN...from the LP. By 1976, Elton`s sales accounted for 2% of all worldwide sales 11 09 SUPERSTITION - STEVIE WONDER...Stevie performed this on Sesame Street 12 25 FEEL THE NEED IN ME - DETROIT EMERALDS...R + B proper from the set forming in 1968 13 15 HELLO HURRAY - ALICE COOPER...Vincent Damon Furnier from Michigan was 62 on 4th Feb 14 23 DOCTOR MY EYES - JACKSON FIVE...the original sound of Michael & co. The song written by Jackson Browne, and also recorder by Dr John 15 08 ROLL OVER BEETHOVEN - ELECTRIC LIGHT ORCHESTRA...ELO after Roy Wood 16 14 TAKE ME HOME COUNTRY ROADS - OLIVIA NEWTON JOHN...the better sound of Olivia, covering the late John Denver 17 49 GONNA MAKE YOU AN OFFER YOU CAN`T REFUSE - JIMMY HELMS...the later lead singer of London Beat 18 24 KILLING ME SOFTLY WITH HIS SONG - ROBERTA FLACK...the original and better version 19 16 TAKE ME GIRL I`M READY - JUNIOR WALKER AND THE ALL STARS...dodgy title for Autry Dewatt Mixon Jnr from Arkansas 20 19 HOCUS POCUS - FOCUS...the 2nd one in 21 17 LONG HAIRED LOVER FROM LIVERPOOL - LITTLE JIMMY OSMOND...Jimmy becoming the biggest seller of the year so far 22 27 PINBALL WIZARD-SEE ME FEEL ME - NEW SEEKERS...a medley from "Tommy". Were the Who impressed? 23 11 PAPER PLANE - STATUS QUO...the 12 gold bars continued for Rick and co 24 12 YOU'RE SO VAIN - CARLY SIMON...No Secrets was the album, and the song was it directed at Warren Beatty? It did feature Mick Jagger on guest vocals. The biggest thing is we will finally find out, when her new album "Never Been Gone" hits the shops on Monday. Personally I always thought it was directed at her ex-hubby James Taylor 25 31 STEP INTO A DREAM - WHITE PLAINS...a future Butlins advert here 26 21 REELIN' AND ROCKIN' - CHUCK BERRY...a previous B side for the Chuck, re-released after the popularity of "My Ding-A-Ling" 27 18 WISHING WELL - FREE...After getting passed "Alright Now", I particularly preferred there sound 28 32 WHY CAN`T WE LIVE TOGETHER - TIMMY THOMAS...from Indiana, more proper R + B 29 30 IF IT WASN`T FOR THE REASON THAT I LOVE YOU - MIKI ANTHONY...Kris Ife with a Roger Cooke song 30 26 BIG SEVEN - JUDGE DREAD...definately no radio play for the late Judge was Alexander Minto Hughes, the first white Reggae singer. Simon Bates, once played one of his hits on the Golden Hour...guess what? It never happened again! 31 39 THAT`S WHEN THE MUSIC TAKES ME - NEIL SEDAKA...a return for Neil`s chart success, about this time he wrote "Solitaire", he offered it to Tony Christie...Tony turned it down. Oh dear, Andy Williams had an enormous hit with it 32 45 NICE ONE CYRIL - COCKEREL CHORUS...Tottenham at their best 33 20 ME AND MRS JONES - BILLY PAUL...over to Philadelphia for Paul Williams soul sound, with a cover of Elton`s "Your Song" on the B side 34 22 IF YOU DON`T KNOW ME BY NOW - HAROLD MELVIN AND THE BLUENOTES...Teddy Pendergrass sadly dying last month, and Harold gone as well 35 29 THE JEAN GENIE - DAVID BOWIE...the Bowie taking on the somewhat Gay front 36 33 ALWAYS ON MY MIND - ELVIS PRESLEY...Willie Nelson recorded it, as did the Pet Shop Boys. Brenda Lee (Little Miss Dynamite) was the first to record it, though 37 NE BY THE DEVIL - BLUE MINK...The sound of Madeline Bell/Herbie Flowers turning rather stale by now 38 NE HEART OF STONE - Kenny...not the teens that brought us "The Bump" etc, but an Irish band that actually sounded like the other Kenny 39 34 HELP ME MAKE IT THROUGH THE NIGHT - GLADYS KNIGHT AND THE PIPS...Kris Kristofferson penned this one 40 43 AVENUES AND ALLEYWAYS - TONY CHRISTIE...the a-fore mentioned Tony, with the theme to ATV`s "The Protectors", going out on Friday nights at 7pm in 1973, but hardly any viewers The Top Pre-Order Singles, this week: 01 GAVE IT ALL AWAY - BOYZONE 1st Mar 02 ROCK THAT BODY - BLACK EYED PEAS 15th Mar 03 ON A MISSION - GABRIELLA CILMI 8th Mar 04 ROCKET - GOLDFRAPP 8th Mar 05 TALK ME DOWN - WESTLIFE 29th Mar The Top Pre-Order Albums, this week: 01 BROTHER - BOYZONE 8th Mar 02 A CURIOUS THING - AMY MACDONALD 8th Mar 03 PLASTIC BEACH - GORILLAZ 8th Mar 04 MOVIE SONGBOOK - SHARLEEN SPITERI 1st Mar 05 HEAD FIRST - GOLDFRAPP 22nd Mar Some maybe worried about the Sugababes, as "Sweet 7" is only at number 9 in the pre-orders. The Physical Chart this week: 01 01 HELPING HAITI 02 NE JLS 03 02 JEDWARD 04 NE SUGABABES 05 NE LEONA 06 NE JAY SEAN 07 NE ELLIE GOULING 08 03 TIMBALAND/KATY PERRY 09 05 LEMAR 10 NE ALPHABEAT 11 NE MUSE 12 04 COURTEENERS 13 08 LADY GAGA 14 10 MARINA 15 06 MCELDERRY 16 07 DEMI LOVATO 17 09 ALEXANDRA 18 11 CALVIN 19 12 N-DUBZ/MR HUDSON 20 13 PETER KAY Hang on for the up to minute Top 75 lowdown...while you wait, as we already mentioned the late Roger Scott...here`s a full Capital Radio show of his excellent "Cruising" Show, featuring a whole bunch of 1963 UK Hits: http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?ywhjjzyj3yf http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?ln1meizaddq

The gang might consider it a Consumer type/newsy thing, so don`t included it...but saying that Panorama is allowed in...I will have a word, but it is garbage. A typical 7pm, BBC1 show. About time there was some proper entertainment on, at that time in contrast to ITV and Emmerdale!

Yep, she certainly clears my drains! Alphabeat, top 40...yeah I would say so. Oh course, we well remember the original Little Miss Dynamite was/is Brenda Lee...

The single just out of the top 5 pre-orders by a few.

Here come's the finish...The full lowdown on the top 75 singles plus, because as we speak Taylor Swift hovers just outside. The chart compiled thus: The Top 40 based on a mix of downloads/physical sales. The 41-75 based on nothing but downloads...All put together those lovely people down at Data Technical Research Ltd. Lots of you have email saying who are they exactly? Well, they are a team of chaps who previously worked in Market Research for the likes of MRIB & BMRB. They collate information for Dvd/TV/Music and the likes. Big ties with HMV, who are still updating a brand new download site. Download info is based on an avearage of the week's sales, for our purposes from iTunes/7Digital/Tesco/Amazon/Play.co.uk.

I read another thread the other day, on the state of the Singles Chart. Well as there isn`t a Singles chart, as physicals are dead...It`s now a song chart, the only problem is the lack of the over 25s, who don`t really go for downloading. Hence the chart being a kiddish looking heap of tripe. As well, as various charity types usually put together by the other tripe known as Mr Cowell! Take the Rammstein concert I went too...Spectacular effects, and a big all round age feel. Now with a bigger age range, the songs in the chart would be great. Horrifying that we will never see Iron Maiden in the chart again. iTunes dominates the chart, and kids can`t seem to see the rip off of overpricing, as other download sites are cheaper. Don`t forget for the chart, that`s always that little bit ahead of "Edgy Yeates" and co...as well, as much better, oin Jason Scott and myself on Sunday at 4, on hhtp://www.thesuperstation.info and also look out for the new Fresh Hit 40 site coming on there too. That chart is a few hours ahead of the game because Radio One`s chart is stale by 4 on a Sunday, because the info finishes on Saturday night at 12. Ours is ahead because of the way the chart is compiled on Sales & 7.5% airplay. Following on at 7pm on Sunday we also have the new "Ones To Watch". The bubblers and newies in the half hour slot show.

I`ve changed it to, what it actually is. As we know (from my physical charts on a Friday) it`s dead in physicals, as Joe Mcelderry & Peter Kay are still the top 2 physicals, with Marina as number 3 physical this week.

I did neglect to say, that there is no download info from HMV this week, because the site is under going a new look. So it`s been off-line all week. Not that their downloads are much to mention in sales though.

Well, it is of course a disney animated kids film...and we don`t include them in the chart. Just like we didn`t include "Up" this week. Overall if included "Up" would be number 2, and those "Meatballs" would be number 10, this week after peaking in the top 5, two weeks back. I would call it an adult chart, but then people get the wrong impression! ;) The Top UK Box Office Films: Courtesy of Screen International 01 NE VALENTINE`S DAY 02 01 AVATAR 03 NE THE WOLFMAN 04 02 PRINCESS AND THE FROG 05 NE PERCY JACKSON AND THE LIGHTNING THIEF 06 NE MY NAME IS KHAN 07 04 INVICTUS 08 NE A SINGLE MAN 09 08 ALVIN AND THE CHIPMUNKS II 10 03 ASTRO BOY The Top TV Programmes: Only the Top episodes of Soaps are noted the rest aren`t! 01 01 CORONATION STREET 11.40 02 02 EASTENDERS 10.77 03 03 EMMERDALE 8.90 04 04 DANCING ON ICE 8.80 05 06 WILD AT HEART 8.09 06 NE HELPING HAITI 7.37 07 05 HARRY HILL`S TV BURP 7.35 08 07 LARK RISE TO CANDLEFORD 6.98 09 10 ANTIQUES ROADSHOW 6.93 10 11 SILENT WITNESS 6.85 11 09 CASUALTY 6.53 12 12 IN IT TO WIN IT 6.48 13 13 COUNTRYFILE 6.35 14 RE LAW AND ORDER UK 6.06 15 15 HUSTLE 5.95 16 RE RUGBY 5.92 17 08 HOLBY 5.92 18 RE FA CUP SOCCER 5.65 19 16 ONE SHOW S.58 20 14 TAKE ME OUT 5.42 21 19 MR AND MRS 5.29 22 21 BBC NEWS/SPORT/WEATHER SATURDAY 5.26 23 18 SO YOU THINK YOU CAN DANCE 5.21 24 22 6 O`CLOCK NEWS 5.05 25 20 QI 4.67 26 RE 10 O`CLOCK NEWS 4.63 27 RE YOU`VE BEEN FRAMED 4.62 28 23 7 AGES OF BRITAIN 4.61 29 RE ITV WEEKEND NEWS SUNDAY 4.59 30 24 THE BILL 4.13 The Top Albums: Based on rotas of Sales (Thurs to Weds) with adjusted figures for new entries 01 NE GLEE VOL. 1 - VARIOUS 02 06 FAME MONSTER/FAME - LADY GAGA 03 02 ELEMENT OF FREEDOM - ALICIA KEYS 04 08 LUNGS - FLORENCE AND THE MACHINE 05 01 FOREVER VIENNA - ANDRE RIEU 06 05 SUNNY SIDE UP - PAOLO NUTINI 07 NE OCEAN EYES - OWL CITY 08 14 E.N.D. - BLACK EYED PEAS 09 04 SOLDIER OF LOVE - SADE 10 NE SCRATCH MY BACK - PETER GABRIEL 11 25 BRIT AWARDS 2010 - VARIOUS 12 09 CRAZY LOVE - MICHAEL BUBLE 13 12 TURN IT UP - PIXIE LOTT 14 07 R + B LOVE SONGS - VARIOUS 15 03 HELIGOLAND - MASSIVE ATTACK 16 10 ALVIN AND THE CHIPMUNKS - VARIOUS 17 18 GREATEST HITS - JOURNEY 18 16 SIGH NO MORE - MUMFORD AND SONS 19 19 I AM SASHA FIERCE - BEYONCE 20 NE NOW 00s - VARIOUS 21 38 REALITY KILLED THE VIDEO STAR - ROBBIE WILLIAMS 22 17 ONLY REVOLUTIONS - BIFFY CLYRO 23 NE PUSH IT - VARIOUS 24 30 BLUEPRINT III - JAY Z 25 20 VERY BEST OF - FLEETWOOD MAC 26 11 UNCONDITIONAL THE LOVE SONGS - PETER ANDRE 27 31 JLS - JLS 28 32 IT`S NOT ME IT`S YOU - LILY ALLEN 29 24 FUNKY HOUSE CLASSICS - VARIOUS 30 39 ONLY BY THE NIGHT - KINGS OF LEON Time for the Flashback charts to February 1985: Charts compiled by MRIB The Top TV, back then 01 CORONATION STREET (MON) 18.90...Audrey Potter moves into the Street, later marrying Alf Roberts, of course 02 LAST OF THE SUMMER WINE 18.80...The Mysterious Feet Of Nora Batty.

It was to be hosted by Paul Daniels/David Copperfield/Pamela Stephenson. The BBC decided it was too vulgar. So, Paul Daniels was given the quiz show "Odd One Out". Strange that Paul`s son, began to co-host Game For A Laugh in this, the 4th of 5 series 06 WISH YOU WERE HERE 15.60...Judith Chalmers still on Holiday 07 NAME THAT TUNE 14.70...Lionel Blair & Maggie Moon invite contestants to do exactly that, and win a car in the final game 08 FAMILY FORTUNES 14.40...at it`s worst, Max Bygraves didn`t have a clue as the host at this point on Friday nights 09 ALL STAR SECRETS 14.30...Celebrities reveal hidden secrets about themselves.

The amount of money, poured into Eastenders was enormous. Terry Wogan got that thrice weekly show, that carried on for 7 years with hardly any viewers. Unfortunately Michael Grade was nothing like his dad, Lew. So, bad was 1986 that he gave us 10 year old ITV shows from the likes of "The Muppet Show". A slot that would definately been set for Dr Who. Eastenders had less that 8 million viewers, at the start, and then we were conned by a Sunday repeat (that was included in the ratings, with the original weekday episode). Fooling people, that it was getting more viewers than Coronation Street. It hardly ever did. Some nutcase reckoned that during 1986, it had 30 million viewers! No way did it get that for a single showing. When the BBC, originally commisioned Soaps, they wouldn`t show them all year round. Previously "Angels" had been an early evening venture of BBC Soap. That started out in a 13 part, 50 minute series in 1975. It then disappeared, to return as a twice weekly venture from 1978. Again not shown all year round. Strange enough, half the cast of "Angels" (which followed the trials & tribulations of nurses) featured in "Eastenders" at some point. Also very strange that "Walford" sounds a bit like "Weatherfield". The Top Albums in Feb 1985: With Phil Collins getting in, a week before Tears For Fears had their "Songs From The Big Chair" enter.

Simplicious was the name of his group, which he formed in the 70s as "La Voyage" before they became "Tight Connection" Only the Top 30, for the Network Chart in 1985. You may remember, ahead of the top 3, David "Kid" Jensen looked into his crystal ball to pick 3 hits for the following week. On this occasion, he picked Prince "Let`s Go Crazy", Eddie And The Soul Band "Shaft" & Madonna "Material Girl". He got 3 out of 3. Meanwhile on Independant Radio in Feb 1985, they were heavily playing "Tainted Love" & Soft Cell, to which this managed to re-enter the chart at 33. While over on Radio One`s Chart, it managed just 43, that time around.

Indeed Owl City are likely to take over by Sunday, but we will have to wait and see, and no clues either! Don`t forget if you would like to hear a countdown without lots of chat, and more facts join Jason Scott et moi on Sunday at 4pm on the Superstation thats http://www.thesuperstation.info

It covers music played in public places, as well as radio & tv play and sales. I can`t actually say what the initials actual stand for, but that is what is covered.

Out at 51.

Hang on for the Up To Minute combined Downloads/Physicals...

http://www.kps.org.uk That holds a edited version of the very first one. I`ll see if in future weeks, if I can get some others in, on here somewhere.

I can`t use "Official Mids". It`s against the rules. We just adjust the figures, for new entries...and then work it from there. Meaning Florence loses a bit. It was more like 25,000 across Thurs/Fri/Sat. Hence Vampire Weekend, get the sales of that period from Florence (based around Vampire`s pre-order, of last week). Obviously Lungs will now be #1 come Sunday, as i`ve said.

Sorry! I mis-typed that one...possibly because I was born in North-East London in Waltham Forest, but there you go! :lol:

I "Believe"...that they will swap places, yes Tom! :lol: I thought that the 2 Empire States, could be cut together in one of those old David Jensen special "Network Chart mixes". ;)

Just before we complete the full no nonsense singles...I know for many, that people are sick of the chart show, put out by Radio One and the nob-end called Reggie Yates. Think we are justified in saying that (according to him, Jason Derulo topped the singles chart recently)! Then a few weeks back he was talking infantile about sneezing snot on the counter in a shop! Highly gross talk for a chart show (and any show). If you`ve had enough of that crap...try giving Jason Scott a listen on http://www.thesuperstation.info this Sunday at 4pm. As I am supplying the chart, probably not far away from Radio One anyway, give it a go. Promise you`ll hear the complete top 40, no talking bollocks, and plenty of interesting info. You can still follow the Radio One Top 40...here on Buzzjack`s best "Sunday Chart Thread" with the gang of course, along with a better countdown! Right here is the chart as we find it today at 5pm. Compiled by DTR, based on Physical/Downloads in the top 40, and pure downloads in the 41-75. The Top 20 based on Chart Show tv`s but without airplay, and updated sales.
