Now drumming along to Bonnie Tyler's 'Total Eclipse Of The Heart' -
which has already climbed to #81 on iTunes because to it!

Not bad, bit of a novelty one, but it has a good message.
Christmas isn't christmas without Cliff.

Week Ending September 6th 2008
Posted Mon 1 Sep 2008 10:23AM BST by James Masterton in Chart Watch UK

Swedish DJ and producer Eric Prydz is a very busy man. Not only does he
have club gigs to play all over Europe, when at home he has remix work
to do as well as running several different labels which serve as outlets
for his many musical projects. Small wonder then that the time he has
for releasing singles under his own name is limited and precious, even
if he somehow has the knack of producing a worldwide smash hit every
single time.

Hence Number One 'Call On Me' in late 2004 was not followed until early
2007 by Number 2 single 'Proper Education' and now 19 months on from
that last hit he finally has a third consecutive Top 3 hit...

Holding Forth at the top – but on fewer sales than The Verve might be
used to

By Alan Jones

The Verve’s Urban Hymns sold 250,054 copies when it debuted at number
one in 1997, appearing in the immediate wake of their two biggest hit
singles, Bitter Sweet Symphony and The Drugs Don’t Work but an 11-year
lay-off and a big change in the retail landscape mean that the newly
reformed band’s Forth manages to make its maiden chart appearance at
number one on a less stellar 72,768 sales.

The album’s sales included 7,403 digital deliveries – a
significantly higher percentage than the market average, not least
because some retailers priced the download as cheap as £5 last week.

Country veteran Glen Campbell extends his span of hits album to 38
years, debuting at number 54 on 3,081 sales of Meet Glen Campbell.

Campbell is 72 years old, and the album – his first to chart since a
1999 Hits And Love Songs set – contains his versions of well-known
contemporary songs like Good Riddance by Green Day, Times Like These by
Foo Fighters, All I Want Is You by U2 and Travis’ Sing.

You do realise that, thanks to downloads, singles sales are now at an
all-time high?
