    This is the official video of her first single. I love it!

     

    I think she's done a great version, it's a shame that it will never be a hit though, not unless

    it's featured in an advert or some other campaign which is very unlikely.

     

    It's a great song, originally recorded by The Blue Nile for those who don't know.

     

    There appears to be a 2011 remix of The Blue Nile version

    Singles

     

    LMFAO and gang stay at No.1 on the ARIA Singles Chart for a seventh week with “Party Rock Anthem”, making it now the longest running No.1 single this decade, as the last song to stay at the top this long (or longer) was “Tik Tok” by Ke$ha (9-Nov-09 to 28-Dec-09) which was aloft for eight straight weeks, and was the last No.1 of the last decade. The previous seven week stretch for any song was “Sexy Bitch” for David Guetta and Akon from mid-August 2009 to mid-October 2009 (it had a run of three weeks, the regained No.1 for a further four weeks).

     

    With the party still rockin’ at No.1, it puts a hold on Pitbull’s first solo No.1 single again, with his latest track “Give Me Everything” holding at No.2 for a third straight week, and Adele’s “Rolling in the Deep” also holding, this time for a second week at No.3. The planned Glee episode where the song was meant to be sung will be screened next week due to Oprah’s farewell shows being broadcast in its place here, so maybe next week at No.1 for Adele.

     

    Rihanna leapt into the Top 10 last week with her “California King Bed”, this week she halves her Top 10 placement by moving from No.8 to No.4, and this leap pushes Jessie J’s “Price Tag” down a place to No.5 this week. Marvin Priest holds at No.6 with “Own This Club”, whilst also holding still within the Top 10 is “The Lazy Song” for Bruno Mars and “Where Them Girls at” for David Guetta, Flo Rida and Nicki Minaj at No.9 and No.10 respectively. DJ Havana Brown returns to No.7 (up from No.11) with “We Run the Night”, the same place that the track debuted four weeks ago, and dropping three places to No.8 is Snoop Dogg’s “Sweat”.

     

    MOVERS & NEW PEAKS: Lady GaGa’s second (third?) album “Born This Way” was released this week, and debuts at No.1 on the ARIA Albums Chart, plus she did a lot of media promotion too, including the just screened Graham Norton Show on ABC2, performing “Judas” (TW-14, up one) and “Born This Way” which jumps back up seven places to No.11, whilst her albums most recent two singles “Edge of Glory” (12 to 38) and “Hair” (20 to 39) drop back down the charts. The other media heavy female of the week was Oprah, and her final three shows, the first of which featured Beyonce performing “Run the World (Girls)”, which has helped propel the single back up the charts twenty-seven places from No.42 to No.15, three places lower than it’s original peak of No.12.

    Jessie J looks like she might get a second Top 10 entry as “Nobody’s Perfect” is up four places to No.12 this week. Wynter Gordon is up three places to No.16 with “Til Death”, and flying into the Top 20 at No.19, up eighteen places, are Simple Plan and Natasha Bedingfield with “Jet Lag”. Leaping nineteen places to No.21 is the latest track for Katy Perry, “Last Friday Night (TGIF)”, and up two places to No.22 is Adele’s “Someone Like You”. Also scoring new peaks within the Top 30 are The Black Eyed Peas, up nineteen places to No.25 with “Don’t Stop the Party”, up a single place to a new peak of No.26 is Enrique with “Dirty Dancer”, and after a small move last week, Stan Walker’s “Loud” is up nine places this week to No.27.

    The Glee Cast move up a couple of places to No.30 with their version of Fleetwood Mac’s “Go Your Own Way”, Tonite Only are up four places to No.42 with “We Run the Nite”, and leaping into the Top 50 at No.37, up twenty-seven places, is Laidback Luke feat Steve Aoki and Lil’ Jon with “Turbulence.

     

    The first new taste of Jason DeRulo’s second album “Future History” is the highest new entry of the week; entitled “Don’t Wanna Go Home” it debuts at No.34. The song features a lyrical sample from “The Banana Boat Song” (HP-6, 1957) by Harry Belafonte, and a musical sample from the song “Show Me Love” by Robin S (HP-78, 1994 & Remixed HP-73, 2009). It’s also Jason’s sixth Top 40 appearance, having scored with five singles from his first album; “Whatcha Say” (HP-5, peak Jan 2010), “In My Head” (HP-1, Feb 2010), “Ridin’ Solo” (HP-4, peak June 2010), “what if” (HP-32, peak Aug. 2010) and “The Sky’s the Limit” (HP-22, peak Nov 2010).

     

    Lower Top 50: With James Blunt completing his Australian tour late last week, it has helped his two current single to jump back up the charts (not to mention his album too), with “Stay the Night” back up thirty places to No.51, and “If Time is All I Have” re-entering the Top 50 at No.53 to score a new peak. The only other new peaking track of the week goes to former locals Sick Puppies, and their track “Maybe”, which is up nine places to No.54 this week.

     

    With Fleetwood Mac’s “Rumours” album still inside the Top 3 this week, two former singles from the album this week enter the singles chart. “Go Your Own Way” is back in at No.59 (HP-20, peaked April 1977) and back in at No.90 is “Dreams” (HP-19, peaked August 1977).

     

    Rapper Wiz Khalifa debuts at No.72 with his second ARIA Singles Chart entry “Roll Up”. His former No.24 single “Black and Yellow” is sitting at No.35 this week. Another artist debuts with a song already in the charts (albeit an appearance as a guest), Benny Benassi debuts at No.77 with his new single “Cinema” featuring vocalist Gary Co. Whilst another act who is currently charting, Nicki Minaj (as a part of David Guetta’s “Where Them Girls at”), debuts at No.99 with her new single “Girls Fall Like Dominoes”.

     

    American country trio Rascal Flatts debut at No.76 with their first ever ARIA Chart entry entitled “I Won’t Let Go”, taken from their seventh album “Nothing Like This”.

     

    Local DJ’s Dan Murphy and Steve Peach have remixed and Olivia Newton-John has re-recorded her vocals for the 1980 single “Magic” (HP-4, peaked Sept 1980) which she premiered on ‘Dancing with the Stars’ last Sunday night, with all proceeds going to Olivia’s charity, the Melbourne Cancer and Wellness Centre. The single enters at No.79.

     

    The third ARIA Singles Chart entry for the Swedish House Mafia is the first new track from their forthcoming as-yet untitled second album, the track entitled “Save the World” debuts at No.82, featuring the vocals of Swedish singer John Martin.

     

    The last new entry I want to mention debuts at No.91, “Determinate” by the Lemonade Mouth Cast from the Disney film ‘Lemonade Film’, and with the TV Movie premiering on the Disney Channel here in Australia on May 21st, it has helped this single to enter, whilst the soundtrack album debuts at No.71 too.

     

    The charts say goodbye to the 102 weeks running “I Gotta Feeling” from The Black Eyed Peas, now the second longest running Top 100 ARIA Single behind Lady GaGa’s “Poker Face” at 104 weeks.

     

    Albums

     

    Nothing could stop Lady GaGa from taking the No.1 spot in Australia this week (or the rest of the world), with third album “Born This Way”, and with such media saturation, it was inevitable that the gagites would devour any new material from the new-material girl. “Born This Way” (HP-1, TW-11), “Judas” (HP-6, TW-14), The Edge of Glory (HP-11, TW-38) and “Hair” (HP-20, TW-39) are the first four releases from the seventeen track album (bonus edition), with more new material bound to be released into the much distant future.

     

    “Born This Way” is the 632nd No.1 album in Australia (1965-2011), and the eleventh album for 2011 (we hit ninth No.1 this time last year), and Lady GaGa’s second No.1 album after “The Fame Monster” (TW-44) spent four weeks at No.1 during all of April 2010, whilst the first edition of the album “The Fame” (TW-91) hit No.3 in November 2009. The album is the third album with ‘Born’ in it’s title, Jet’s “Get Born” (2 weeks, May 2004) and Bruce Springsteen’s “Born in the USA” (8 broken weeks from October 1984) being the other two. It’s the eighth album with ‘Way’ in it’s title, the last one being “Down the Way” from Angus and Julia Stone (1 week, March 2010), and only the fourth album with ‘This’, with Motor Ace’s “Shoot This” being the last back in August 2002. “Born This Way” is also the 231st No.1 album by an American artist, and the 88th by a Female performer.

     

    So after four weeks at the top, Adele’s “21’ drops back to No.2, pushing last weeks re-entry for Fleetwood Mac, “Rumours” down to No.3. Hitting new peaks within the Top 10 is Jessie J’s album “Who You Are”, up four places to No.4, and thanks to his recent national tour, James Blunt leaps up twenty-one places to a new peak of No.5 (former peak No.8 in Nov 2010) with “Some Kind of Trouble”, whilst his former No.1 album “Back to Bedlam” re-enters at No.54.

     

    Bruno Mars holds at No.6 with “Doo-Wops and Hooligans”, The Foo Fighters drop down two places to No.7 with “Wasting Light”, and “Roy” from Damien Leith drops five places to No.8, with The Wombats and “This Modern Glitch” down six places to land at No.10 this week.

     

    The second Top 10 entry of the week is at No.9, the debut album for Foster the People entitled “Torches”. Helped by their Triple J exposure here, the California five piece have scored two singles chart entries here already, “Helena Beat” (HP-74, Feb 2011) and “Pumped Up Kicks” (HP-90, Feb 2011).

     

    MOVERS & NEW PEAKS: With the DVD release last week of Cher and Christina Aguilera’s film “Burlesque”, the soundtrack shoots back into the Top 50 at No.30, up thirty-five places this week. “The Royal Wedding” album is up one place to a new peak of No.35, and ‘House MD’ actor Hugh Laurie sees his debut album “Let Them Talk” leap forty places to No.37. Debuting at No.89 last week was the Kate Bush collection “The Directors Cut”, which this week leaps a massive forty-eight places to land at No.41, and also re-entering the Top 50, up twenty-four places, is the newly repackaged “Euphoria” for Enrique Iglesias, which would have also risen due to tickets going on sale for his upcoming national tour.

     

    Last week we had a classic 70’s album re-enter (Rumours), and this week we have a classic early 80’s album re-entering, due to his a 30th anniversary edition of the album being issued. “Icehouse” by Flowers was released in October 1980, and made it to No.4 nationally, with three Top 20 singles released from it, “Can’t Help Myself” (HP-10, peak August 1980), “We Can Get Together” (HP-16, peak November 1980) and “Walls” (HP-20, peak March 1981). Due to another band being called Flowers, the group changed their name to Icehouse and the rest is history, and now this album re-enters the ARIA Albums chart this week at No.14.

     

    Jennifer Hudson was in the country last week to promote her second album “I Remember Me”, which has helped it to debut at No.26 this week. Her debut self-titled album entered, peaked and spent its one week in the Top 100 at No.73 in October 2008.

  7. I enjoyed the 2-part episode tonight too, i see why people are confused though. Nice nod to the past with the clone Doctor at the start using Tom Baker's voice with the "jellybaby" line. Amy's pregnancy is just a running storyline throughout the series so although a cliffhanger doesn't count as a three-parter. Certainly interesting though, next week is the last one until the autumn. Then we have Torchwood which i'm really looking forward to.

    Edited by Mark.

    Judgement hath been made.

    The following forums are to be archived over the next week or so;

     

    Alicia Keys

    Christina Aguilera

    Delta Goodrem

    Nelly Furtado

    Shakira

    The Beatles

    The Killers

    We have given Sophie Ellis-Bextor an extra month to prove itself, as it DID see a small boost in activity through April, but we're not convinced it's not a fluke to be honest.

     

    Also next up, the following forums are now on the one month "probation" period. If activity doesn't pick up through the rest of May/June, they will also be archived away and left to float around cyberspace.

     

    Anastacia

    Black Eyed Peas

    Kelly Clarkson

    The Pussycat Dolls

     

    Anastacia and Pussycat Dolls no longer seem to have relevance in today's charts so i think those two can go.

    BEPS are still going strong chartwise so the forum may pick up, and Kelly will a new album later this year which will generate interest.

    Edited by Mark.

    The latest forums up for the chop unless we see significant improvement in the next month:

     

    - The Beatles

    - Delta Goodrem

    - Nelly Furtado

    - Sophie Ellis-Bextor

    - Alicia Keys

    - The Killers

    - Shakira

    - Christina Aguilera

     

    These forums will be archived in around four weeks.

     

    As a specialist in this area, i feel i have to comment.

     

    The Beatles, no surprise especially since the departure of Rich who did a lot for the forum.

    Quite a shame to lose him, he did a lot for Buzzjack.

     

    Delta Goodrem, a very strong fanbase and been here since 2006 crossing over from coolclarity.

    So sad to see this go, although with a new album in the pipeline, i think it might be an option to reopen

    when that time comes.

     

    Sophie Ellis-Bextor, quite a surprise since her new album is scheduled for release soon and that most certainly

    would have generated some interest. In view of this perhaps her forum should have had a reprieve and if by the time

    the album came out that interest didn't pick up then it could be removed.

    EDIT: JUST SEEN THE NEXT POST, HER FORUM WAS GIVEN A REPRIEVE.

     

    Looking at the list all of them have had big fanbases on Buzzjack, i think with a lot of the older members growing up

    and posting less is why they have suffered from lack of use. Plus the inactivity of the artist with less to talk about it.

     

    But ultimately if they aren't getting used then sadly it's right to let them go, but i feel when new albums for each

    artist come out, i think it should be considered reopening their forum.

     

    Just my opinion given this was area of expertise on CoolClarity.

    I thought this week's episode was very good, written by Ashes to Ashes writer Matthew Graham and guest starred Marshall Lancaster from that very series.

    Seems to have a mainly positive feedback from reading comments across the web too.

  19. 01.Cher - The Shoop Shoop Song (It's In His Kiss)

    Our office supervisor drove us mad singing this back then, along with the bloody smurf song

    and Gary Glitter hits...somehow i don't think she'll be singing those now.

    Anyway awful song which is so overplayed.

     

    02.KLF Featuring The Children Of The Revolution - Last Train To Trancentral

    Okay

     

    03.Crystal Waters - Gypsy Woman (La Da Dee)

    Annoying

     

    04.Orchestral Manoeuvres In The Dark - Sailing On The Seven Seas

     

    05.Cathy Dennis - Touch Me (All Night Long)

    Good track

     

    06.Beverley Craven - Promise Me

    Beautiful song, she released a new album in 2009 which went completely unnoticed.

     

    07.Zucchero Featuring Paul Young - Senza Una Donna (Without A Woman)

    Okay

     

    08.Blur - There's No Other Way

    Okay debut track, even though Damon Albarn's voice can be annoying after a while.

     

    09.Electronic - Get The Message

    Good track

     

    10.Soft Cell Featuring Marc Almond - Tainted Love

    1991 remix which doesn't sound all that different to the 1981 version.

    Classic track.

     

    11.Chesney Hawkes - The One And Only

    Okay, written by Nick Kershaw from the film Buddy's Song.

    A one-hit wonder apart from a minor Top 30 hit with the follow up I'm A Man Not A Boy

    which isn't the later song by crap TV boyband North and South.

     

    12.Roxette - Fading Like A Flower

    Great track.

     

    13.Seal - Future Love (EP)

    Great track

     

    14.T-99 - Anasthasia

    Not my cup of tea but a popular sound with ravers at the time.

     

    15.Vic Reeves And The Roman Numerals - Born Free

    Don't mind it

     

    16.De La Soul - Ring Ring Ring (Ha Ha Hey)

    17.Nomad - Just A Groove

    Pass

     

    18.Frances Nero - Footsteps Following Me

    Okay

     

    19.James - Sit Down {1991}

    Classic track, but overplayed.

     

    20.New Kids On The Block - Call It What You Want

    I think they'd had their day by now. Did manage a comeback minor Top 40

    hit in 2008 with Summertime, although they should have released the Lady GaGa collab Big Girl Now.

     

    21.Dannii Minogue - Success N

    Okay

     

    22.Quadrophonia - Quadrophonia

    Popular with ravers at the time i guess, not really my cup of tea.

     

    23.Michael Bolton - Love Is A Wonderful Thing

    Okay

     

    24.The Waterboys - The Whole Of The Moon {1991}

    Classic but overplayed, usually turn off if it comes on the radio

     

    25.Jason Donovan - RSVP

    Another artist on the decline, not one of his memorable hits

     

    26.Amy Grant - Baby Baby

    Great track

     

    27.Color Me Badd - I Wanna Sex You Up

    Okay

     

    28.Roachford - Get Ready

    Okay, now replaced Paul Carrack in Mike & The Mechanics

     

    29.Wilson Phillips - You're In Love

    Great track

     

    30.Samantha Janus - A Message To Your Heart

    Okay, i liked the b-side Heaven Is A Place For Heroes

     

    31.T'Pau - Whenever You Need Me

    Their last hit, never to trouble the charts again unless someone performs one of their hits on the X-Factor/BGT

     

    32.Madonna - Rescue Me

    Okay

     

    33.Lonnie Gordon - Gonna Catch You

    Great track

     

    34.Flowered Up - Take It

    Okay

     

    35.REM - Shiny Happy People

    Okay but overplayed and annoying after a while

     

    36.Paul Weller Movement - Into Tomorrow

    Okay

     

    37.The Wonder Stuff - The Size Of A Cow

    Okay

     

    38.Gary Clail On-U Sound System - Human Nature

    I can remember the boss of our YT singing this one at work, along with

    Walking In The Air at Christmas

     

    39.The Wedding Present - Dalliance

    John Peel favourite, forgettable track

     

    40.EMF - Children

    Big in their day, last hit the chart in 2005 with Perfect Day (not the Lou Reed song),

    although Duran Duran did chart with that version the same year.
