| This has been a pretty active week on the Oz Top 40. The number one song, however remains unchanged. Dirty Vegas remain at number one for the third week with their latest single, Ghosts. This song is bound to remain at number one for a couple of more weeks as there are no songs that I think pose a threat to it. But that could change as I have a tendency to debut songs high. The Doves occupy 2 spots in the top 5 this week. This isn't the first time this has happened, but it hasn't happened in a while. If my memory serves me right, Real McCoy accomplished this feat back in 1997 with singles from their SUPERB album One More Time. The King himself make a reappearance on the charts this week. As I have been bombarded with Presley on TV and radio, A Little Less Conversation finally started sinking in my head this week, which leads to it reentering at number 19 this week. Norah Jones earns this week's biggest mover award, moving up 17 spots to number 21 with Don't Know Why. Monica also makes a big move this week, back up 9 to number 5 to repeak with All Eyez On Me. I finally listened to P.Y.T. (the MJ song she sampled for her latest hit), and can see just how much she based the song off of it. DJ Sammy, who just released his solo debut album here in the States, makes this week's biggest faller with Heaven. The song has had a good chart run, as has many other songs on my chart. I think that once I get back to school next week, there will be a lot of shakeup on my charts, but only time will tell! |
| NEW ON THE CHARTS |
| 27 - ROUND ROUND - Sugababes I was first introduced to the Sugababes when I was in the UK during the fall of 2000. Their first song, Overload, was big while I was there. Since then I really haven't been a big fan of anything they have released since. Until now. Round Round is a pretty straightforward pop song and a good one at that. This one could be a big hit on my chart and it just debuted at number one this week in the UK. So we will see how it does here. 28 - IT'S OK! - Atomic Kitten Atomic Kitten is another girl group from the UK who make a debut this week. Not much really to say about this song. It's a nice pop tune that kinda fits the theme of my life right now. Listen to the song and you will know what I mean! 29 - IN MY PLACE - Coldplay Well The Doves aren't the only one enjoying UK Indie Rock success these days. Coldplay are back with their latest and recently hit number 2 in the UK with this one. I also discovered Coldplay in the UK and fell in love with their song, Trouble, arguibly one of my FAVORITE songs of 2000 right behind Please Forgive Me by David Gray. This one isn't quite the song that Trouble was, but it's good nonetheless. 38 - I'M ALIVE - Celine Dion FINALLY Celine's day as come. This song has been bubbling under for what seems to be weeks now (10 since I just counted). This is a good song, but for some reason just hasn't been good enough. It probably won't last too long on my charts, but stranger thins have happened! |
