Edited by Mark.
To be honest it should be a Christmas song that's being campaigned, plenty of new xmas ones, and ones that have previously flopped that could do with being championed.
Although Smells Like Teen Spirit is a classic and would be equally deserving of the top spot.
Not sure if it would work again though.

I listen too, you can't move for retro chart shows at the moment, there's also Double Top 20 with David Jensen on Sunday evenings, and the vintage
chart show on some bbc local stations including (Cornwall, Devon, Gloucestershire) on saturday evenings.
There's a good one on Bay FM (Exmouth) on Sundays 4-6.

Jonathan King was edited out!
Jonathan King had a letter from the BBC Director Channel following complaints about his song being cut from TOTP BBC4 repeat.
Source: http://www.kingofhits.co.uk/index.php?opti...=5&id=75562
Dear Jonathan
Thank you for your email. Please accept my apologies for the delay in
replying.
I am sorry to hear that you were unhappy that your performance was
edited out of an episode of Top of the Pops recently repeated on BBC
Four. The BBC's complaints process begins with a response from the
relevant programme makers and I therefore asked my colleagues in BBC
Four to address this matter. Their response is as follows:
"We are sorry that Mr King's appearance was edited out of this
particular programme. We accept that this should not have happened and
we would like to apologise for any upset this caused.
We can assure Mr King that there is no policy in place requiring any of
his appearances, or those of any one else, to be removed from repeats we
show on the channel. We can also assure Mr King that his performance
will not be edited out of any future repeat of this particular episode
of Top of the Pops."
I hope this response is helpful, but please come back to me if there are
any further points you wish to raise and I will ensure that these are
dealt with in accordance with our complaints process. I want to join
BBC Four in apologising for this incorrect decision.
Best wishes
Mark Thompson
Director General

Gavin Ryan's Chartifacts
(Thanks to Gavin Ryan)
Singles
Rihanna became the first act and first female to have two No.1’s this decade, then Bruno Mars became the first male act with two chart toppers, and now this week LMFAO become the first group of the decade to score a second No.1 single in Australia, as their new single “Sexy and I Know it” becomes the 984th number one song in Australia (1940 to 2011).
It’s also a sheer coincidence that it’s the third successive song to feature the word ‘Know’ in its title, as LMFAO’s track knocks Kelly Clarkson’s “Mr. Know it All” out of the top spot (and down to No.6) after one week at the top. The previous third know was Gotye’s “Somebody That I Used to Know” which drops a place to No.3 this week.
“Sexy and I Know it” is the 29th No.1 for the Interscope label in Australia, and third this decade, with LMFAO’s “Party Rock Anthem” (TW-16) and Lady GaGa’s “Born This Way” (TW-82) being the other two for the label. It’s also the fifth ‘Sexy’ song to hit No.1, the last being David Guetta and Akon in August 2009 with “Sexy Bitch”.
Rihanna and Calvin Harris take a step closer to the No.1 spot by rising up two places to a new peak of No.2 with “We Found Love”, and back up its former peak of No.4 are the Gym Class Heroes and Adam Levine with “Stereo Hearts”, as it leaps over Adam’s other top ten entry, holding at No.5 with “Moves Like Jagger” for his band Maroon 5 and Christina Aguilera.
Kelly Clarkson leapt into the No.1 spot last week from No.12 to No.1 with “Mr. Know it All”, and this week it falls back half as harshly, dropping from the top to No.6 this week. The last occurrence of such a dramatic drop-from-the-top was back in early February 2009 when Jessica Mauboy’s “Burn” fell from No.1 to No.5 after also spending a single week at the top. And the big leap into the Top 10 this week is Flo Rida (feat Etta James on vocal sample) with “Good Feeling”, which is up nine places to No.7, giving Flo his seventh Top 10 appearance, with his last Top 10 entry being on the David Guetta track “Where Them Girls at” (HP-6 peaked May 2011).
Speaking of David, he and Sia drop a place a No.8 with his track “Titanium”, which also pushes Cobra Starship’s “You Make Me Feel” drop a place to No.9, and re-entering the Top 10 at No.10 are Hot Chelle Rae and their track “Tonight Tonight”, now landing its third week within the Top 10.
NEW PEAKS & MOVERS: Calvin Harris took ten weeks to rise into the Top 10 with “Bounce” (TW-20), but his new single “Feel So Close” could do it next week in its eighth week on the chart, as its up three places to No.12 this week. Also up three to No.14 are Foster the People and their single “Pumped Up Kicks”, whilst Beyonce’s “Love on Top” rises seven places to land at No.21.
Enrique and Pitbull take “I Like How it Feels” up eight places to No.26, and leaping ten spots to No.29 is Sean Paul and Alexis Jordan on “Got 2 Luv U”. Ed Sheeran leaps twenty-one places and into the Top 40, going from No.53 to No.32 with “The A Team”, and right behind him is another UK act, Drum N Bass duo Nero with “Promises”, whish is up to a new peak of No.33, and leaping back into the Top 40, and surpassing his No.39 peak by rising to No.37 is Gavin DeGraw’s “Not Over You”.
Nickelback climb four places to No.42 with “When We Stand Together”, and climbing into the Top 50 this week are Simple Plan with Rivers Cuomo on “Can’t Keep My Hands Off You”, up eleven places to No.45 from last weeks debut of No.56. Scoring a sixth Top 50 entry from her “Teenage Dream” album is Katy Perry, who leaps thirty-nine places to No.48 with her latest single “The One That Got Away”, and right behind her at No.49, and up thirty-two places; is Nicole Scherzinger with “Wet”, whilst Pete Murray climbs back to his former two-week-peak of No.50 with “Free” for a third week at that spot.
T-Pain scores the highest new entry of the week by debuting at No.44 with the third single from his late 2011 due fourth album “RevolveR”, entitled “5 o’clock”. The song features guest vocals from Wiz Khalifa and a sample of Lily Allen from her track “Who’d Have Known”. Last week T-Pain entered with “Booty Wurk”, which holds at No.72 this week.
Lower 50: Florence + The Machine originally peaked at No.58 with their new single “Shake it Out”, which this week rises to a new peak of No.55 (up eight places from last week). Short Stack re-enter at No.56 with their new track “Bang Bang Sexy” and also score a new peak from that re-entry. Sneaky Sound System
Cody Simpson scores his third ARIA Singles Chart entry by debuting at No.51 with "On My Mind", taken from his newly crowned Top 20 album "Coast to Coast" (up from No.28 to No.16 this week). His two previous tracks were "iYiYi" (with Flo Rida) which hit No.19 in early August of 2010, and "All Day" which made it to No.97 in August of this year.
Wynter Gordon scores her fifth chart appearance, as she debuts at No.77 with "Buy My Love", the third single from her album "With the Music I Die". She is also currently still charting as guest vocalist on this weeks No.84 track "Take Me Away" (HP-32) for Marvin Priest.
Local rapper 360 scored the highest new entry on the albums chart last week with his second album "Falling and Flying" (TW-10). Two new singles debut from that set this week, coming in at No.81 is "Boys Like You" featuring Gossling, and debuting at No.88 is "Killer". Whilst another local singer makes her debut at No.83, Vanessa Amarosi enters with "Amazing".
The most recently broadcast Glee episode in Australia scores two new entries this week, plus helps one of those songs original version to re-enter. "Run the World (Girls)" for Beyonce was performed on the Glee episode by Britney, and her version debuts at No.91, whilst Beyonce's original re-enters at No.64. Last week Coldplay's "Fix You" re-entered at No.79 and climbs to No.68 this week, whilst the Glee version debuts at No.99.
Lastly, entering at No.98 is New York singer/songwriter Lana Del Ray with her debut single, the hauntingly beautiful "Video Games".
Albums
Adele's record-breaking run at the top continues this week, with her "21" album now notching up a 22nd week at No.1, and brings it three weeks shy of John Farnham's "Whispering Jack" album which accumulated 25 weeks at the top in 1986/87.
Four more albums within the Top 10 hold places this week too, with Tony Bennett's "Duets" holding at No.2, LMFAO's "Sorry for Party Rocking" at No.6, David Guetta's "Nothing But the Truth" at No.7 and Lee Kernaghan's "Ultimate Hits" at No.8.
Dropping down one place to No.4 is Gotye's "Making Mirrors", which falls back to its lowest point for a second time, as it has so far only been seen in the 1-2-3 and 4 positions in it's eight weeks on the chart. Blink 182's "Neighborhoods" is down four places to No.9, and last weeks highest new entry for 360, "Falling & Flying" is down six places to No.10.
Chris Isaak's twelfth studio album (15th album in total) "Beyond the Sun" is the highest new entry this week, debuting at No.3, and released a week earlier in Australia than overseas. It becomes Chris' fifth Top 10 album in Australia, and this new album is a collection of songs sung by Sun Records acts like Elvis Presley, Johnny Cash, Jerry Lee Lewis and Roy Orbison. The chart history for Chris Isaak is listed below...

Gavin Ryan's Chartifacts
(Thanks to Gavin Ryan)
Singles
At the end of September, LMFAO’s “Sexy and I Know it” was dropping down the chart, previously peaking at No.44 in late July, and having dropped as low as No.76. But now six weeks later it’s enjoying a second week at No.1 in Australia, and building LMFAO’s tally of weeks at No.1 to twelve now, with the ten weeks run at the top earlier this year for “Party Rock Anthem” (TW-16).
The entire Top 5 stays stable this week (and very little of the Top 10 moves more than two places at the most). Rihanna and Calvin Harris hold at No.2 with “We Found Love”, Gotye’s former No.1 “Somebody That I Used to Know” is at No.3 for a third (non-consecutive) week. “Stereo Hearts” for Gym Class Heroes and Adam Levine is holding its No.4 peak for a third week, and right behind them at No.5 is Adam’s other teaming; Maroon 5 and Christina Aguilera with “Moves Like Jagger” which is at No.5 for a third week after its long ten week No.2 run.
The only new peaking track within the Top 10 is Flo Rida’s latest single “Good Feeling”, which is up one place to No.6, swapping places with former No.1 “Mr. Know it All” for Kelly Clarkson, now at No.7. David Guetta and Sia’s “Titanium” spends its tenth week inside the Top 10 by accumulating its fourth multi-week placing. It’s spent four weeks at No.5, two weeks apiece at No.7, No.8 and No.10 (10-10-5-5-7-5-5-7-8-8). Jason DeRulo performed “It Girl” in a medley of his songs on X-Factor on Tuesday of last week, and that has helped the song to climb back up into the Top 10 at No.9 for a eighth week inside the Top 10, and down one place to No.10 is Cobra Starship’s “You Make Me Feel”.
NEW PEAKS & MOVERS: Foster the People look set to score a Top 10 single next week, as their track “Pumped up Kicks” climbs three places to No.11, jumping over Calvin Harris’ “Feel So Close”, which holds at No.12 for a second week. Nicki Minaj’s track “Super Bass” has been receiving a lot of attention due to an 8 year old’s YouTube performance, and maybe that has helped the track to leap back up the charts eleven places to No.13.
Bruno Mars is edging closer to the Top 20, up one place to No.21 with the new ‘Twilight 4.1’ theme “It Will Rain”, whilst Ed Sheeran’s “The A Team” jumps eight places to No.24. Also up one place to a new peak of No.28 are Sean Paul and Alexis Jordan on “Got 2 Luv U”, and the next two following tracks both jump up. At No.29 (up fifteen places) is T-Pain and Lily Allen with “5 o’clock”, and up twelve spots to No.30 is “When We Stand Together” for Nickelback.
Katy Perry is up fourteen places to No.34 with “The One That Got Away”, and leaping back into the Top 50, and scoring a new peak is Coldplay’s current single “Paradise”, which is up seventeen places to No.36 (former peak was No.37) ahead of their new album which is out this week. Nicole Scherzinger’s “Wet” is up ten places, and into the Top 40 at No.39. Surpassing her No.42 peak from earlier in the month, DEV climbs two places to a new peak of No.41 with “In the Dark”, and after three broken weeks of peaking at No.50, Pete Murray’s “Free” jumps up seven places to No.43.
Justin Bieber is releasing his second album on November 1st, and it’s a Christmas album entitled “Under the Mistletoe”. The lead single from that album is the highest new entry this week, “Mistletoe” debuts at No.20, and is an original Christmas composition, but his upcoming album does contain plenty of traditional northern Christmas songs, accompanied by many pop/R&B stars such as Usher, Boyz II Men, Sean Kingston, Taylor Swift; and Mariah Carey duets with Justin on her track “All I Want for Christmas is You”. This is Justin’s fourteenth singles chart appearance here in Australia.
Another act who is set to release his third album before Christmas is Taio Cruz, the album entitled “TY.O.”, and the lead single enters at No.47, “Hangover” featuring guest vocals from Flo Rida. This new track becomes Taio’s sixth chart entry, his last is at No.76 this week, “Little Bad Girl” with David Guetta, and he is still charting at No.81 with his No.1 track “Dynamite”, now in it’s 67th week in the Top 100.
Lower 50: Up twelve places to a new peak of No.68 is OneRepublic with B.o.B. on their track “Good Life”, and up five spots to No.72 is Wynter Gordon’s new single “Buy My Love”. Lana Del Ray is up thirteen places to No.86 with her first Australian chart entry “Video Games”, and 360 is up one place to a new peak of No.87 with his track “Killer”.
The past two week’s X-Factor shows are having impacts on this weeks chart, with Christina Parri’s performance of The Cranberries hit “Zombie” (HP-1 peaked Dec 1994) making it to No.40 on the digital chart last week, it helps it to re-enter at No.69 this week. Andrew’s performance of the Stereophonic track “Dakota” (HP-22, peaked June 2005) this past week helps it back into the charts at No.57, and last years winner of the show Altiyan Childs performed his new single “Ordinary Man”, which this week debuts at No.55.
Local dance duo called Bombs Away (Thomas Hart and Sketch) debut at No.52 with “Super Soaker” which could be their dance party anthem for the upcoming summer season. And in at No.62 is another local dance act, Ricki-Lee, who enters with her new track “Raining Diamonds”, and it’s her tenth chart entry.
Two small re-entries worth mentioning in the lower 100 include Black Eyed Peas “I Gotta Feeling” back in at No.96, now in it’s 104th week inside the Top 100 (GaGa’s “Poker Face” is still leading with 106 weeks), and Cold Chisel’s score the highest new album entry of the week, which in turn helps their classic track “Khe Sanh” to come back in at No.100.
Albums
Adele’s 23 weeks run at the top of the ARIA Albums Chart has been secured this week, but next week could be a very different story, as new albums from Coldplay, Kelly Clarkson, Washington, Michael Buble, Darren Hayes and GH sets from INXS and Sting are all released. At the moment it looks like Coldplay could be No.1 with their fifth album (and it will be become their fourth consecutive No.1).
Cold Chisel’s sixth Best of collection is the highest new entry of the week, entitled “The Best of Cold Chisel – All for You”; it debuts at No.2 and becomes their highest placed Greatest Hits collection. The bands first collection was December 1985’s “Radio Songs” which made it to No.3, then came the February 1988 set “Razor Songs” which climbed to No.11. Their biggest GH set was “Chisel” which took three weeks to climb to No.3 in October 1991, accumulating 156 weeks in the Top 100 by the time of its last appearance in December 2009. Also it was re-issued and re-mastered in 2001 with a bonus disc where it went to No.15. The other compilation the boys have issued was entitled “Teenage Love”, which debuted and peaked at No.6 in November of 1994.
Like the singles chart, the album chart Top 7 (except for the debut) doesn’t move around much at all. Chris Isaak’s “Beyond the Sun” holds at its No.3 debut from last week, Tony Bennett’s “Duets II” is down two places to No.4 after two weeks at No.2. Goyte’s “Making Mirrors” is at it’s lowest chart placing so far, No.5; and holding at No.6 and No.7 respectively are LMFAO’s “Sorry for Party Rocking” and David Guetta’s “Nothing But the Beat”. And matching his position on the Top 10 singles chart is Jason DeRulo’s second album “Future History”, which is up thirteen places to No.9, its first week inside the Top 10, as it debuted at No.11 four weeks ago.
Two more local acts debut inside the Top 10 this week, with Shannon Noll’s fourth studio album (fifth album in total) “A Million Suns” debuting at No.8 to become his fifth Top 10 entry and lowest so far. His first two albums both went to No.1, “That’s What I’m Talking About” (Feb 2004) and “Lift” (Oct 2005), then came “Turn it Up” (No.3, Sept 2007) and followed in October 2008 by his greatest hits collection “No Turning Back: The Story So Far” (HP-7).
Debuting at No.10 is also the fourth studio album, this one for Mark Vincent, who enters with “Songs from the Heart”. This is Mark’s third Top 10 album, following on from July 2009’s “My Dream – Mio Visione” (No.2), then April 2010’s “Compass” (No.5) and his last album was November 2010’s “The Great Tenor Songbook” which made it to No.18.
NEW PEAKS & MOVERS: With a new Bruno Mars track on the singles chart (but not on the album), his debut album “Doo-Wops and Hooligans” is back up the charts six places to No.18. Nirvana’s “Nevermind” might have dropped seven places to No.28, but it has now racked up 240 weeks in the Top 100, making it now the equal fourth longest charting Top 100 run during ARIA’s 1988 to 2011 chart period. It ties with Meat Loaf’s “Bat Out of Hell”, and will surpass that figure next week.
Foster the People’s current No.11 hit “Pumped Up Kicks” helps the album to climb back up six places to No.29, and Bjork’s new album “Biophilia” jumps seventeen spots to No.31 this week. Up twenty-six places to No.39 is Maroon 5’s “Hands All Over”, and Jack Vidgen’s album “Yes I Am” us back up twelve places to No.41.
Sydney singer/songwriter Lanie Lane enters at No.12 with her debut album “To the Horses”. This bluesy jazz style artist is best known here for singing the theme to the ABC TV Series ‘Crownies’ entitled “What Will I Do”. Another Sydney act, rock band Tonight Alive, debut at No.15 with their second album entitled “What Are You So Scared of?” featuring the lead single “Starlight”. Their June 2010 released first album “All Shapes and Disguises” failed to chart.
The first album by post-Oasis main-member Noel Gallagher is entitled “Noel Gallagher’s High Flying Birds”, the new ‘High Flying Birds’ consisting of three members, one being former Oasis keyboardist Mike Rowe. The self-titled album debuts at No.16 this week. Another act who makes their ARIA Albums chart debut are French act M83, who debut at No.37 with their sixth album (first here) “Hurry Up, We’re Dreaming”.
