Comments: After some comments I did a little more changing to my webiste, so I hope everyone enjoys this one.  If not, email me at [email protected].  On to the charts for this week.  Coldplay show no signs of weakness as "Clocks" holds at number one for a third week.  This one should easily hold number one in the coming weeks, but has some strong competition. ERASURE ERASURE ERASURE .. that's what this entire week has been about.  "Solsbury Hill" landed at number ten on the UK Charts this week.  It's their biggest hit since "Run To The Sun" hit number 6 back in July of 1994!  I have been so estatic this week about how well they would do, and then to see this was too much.  Needless to say, "Solsbury Hill" easily moves back up the charts.  The single comes out in the US on Monday and if I can get a hold of it, there is a slim chance that Erasure could be back at the top spot next week. Jakatta is also moving back up the charts.  In the song's 14th week, it rebounds into the top 10 at number 6.  The extended remix has really given this song new life.  The longest life, however, still belongs to Nick Carter.  "Help Me" is in it's 16th week on the charts at number 23.  If the song can spend 3 more weeks on the charts, it will have the longest chart run since "Drive" spent 20 weeks on The Oz Top 20 in 2001, and the longest chart run in Oz Top 40 history. This week's biggest mover is also a rebounder.  Holly Vallance rebounds in a big way, moving back up 20 spots to number 4 this week.  I'm not really sure why I let this one slide, but it's probably not going to get any higher than this.  Robbie Williams also repeaks this week with "Feel."  The song has really struggled to get anywhere on my charts, but is finally starting to do well. This week's highest debut goes to Foo Fighers, who last charted with their number one smash "Walking After You."  "Times Like These," is easily their most catchy tune in a while, and should really do well here.  The only other debut this week is by DB Boulevard.  They last charted with "Point of View," which hit the top 30 last year.  The voice of DB, Moony, also reached the top 30 last year too.  "Believe" is very catchy and could finally proove to be their first hit on my charts. Cyndi Lauper and Justin Timberlake both reenter this week.  Cyndi is helped out by a great remix (the Tracy Young radio edit), which could really send the song back up the charts.  Only time will tell if this happens or if Coldplay hold the top spot for 4 weeks.  You will have to come back next week to find out.
