The entire Top 40 is right here... |
It's a shock isn't it? A song so popular with the charity-raising public that it has entered the Top 40 TWICE - original version at No.26, see - shoots to No.1, after getting to No.3 last week just on one DAY'S sales alone. Who. Could. Have. Seen. It. Coming?
Not that it's not a cause for celebration, pop songs as good as this do not come along every day, otherwise we'd be bored of them. And we're clearly not, as JK and Joel discovered when they talked to Charlie Reid, the Proclaimer with the guitar...
Listen to the Radio 1 Chart Show interview...
Elsewhere in the chart, Maximo Park are celebrating their first Top Ten hit with the astonishing 'My Velocity'. However, this is nowhere near as astonishing as the song which the band's singer Paul Smith claims is the one which first gave him the confidence to take this music lark seriously...
Listen to the interview with JK & Joel...
PS: If you missed all the Avril hoo-hah from last week, and want a nice easy re-cap on why the world has suddenly gone Lavigne crazy, this little clipette might help...
Avril plays live and talks to JK & Joel...
Until next week, Chart-Watcher-ers,
Tatty bye!
