Back on 25 July 2009: one month since Michael Jackson had died, we were in the 3 weeks so any charts of this date were compiled later. Michael Jackson's "Thriller" was #4 having fallen from #1, Noisettes were #3 with "Never Forget You", Hadfis Huld was #2 with "Kongulo" and #1 was Slow Club's "It Doesn't Have To Be Beautiful.

And at #87 that week was "Saints" by Army Navy, their second and smaller hit of the year which had peaked at #77 the previous week. That was the last we heard of them until now.... Just as the Noisettes are celebrating finally getting to #1, (with Slow Club having peaked at #51 this time around) it would appear their crown may now be under-threat. Their previous singles were more uptempo but this one is very much a Roy Orbison style dramatic ballad.

Second of the new entries is none other than the legendary Bob Dylan who may now be 71 but hasn't stopped recording. It would be quite incredible if he could get a #1 now. He has previously charted, both solo in 1978 with "Baby Stop Crying" and as part of the Travelling Wilbury's. I would have to look up if he has had any other hits of his own, although some of this songs have been hits for others, e.g. I'll Be Your Baby Tonight which charted for Robert Palmer & UB40 in 1990.

Not really surprising to see the Vaccines have the 3rd highest entry. However this song is likely to not reach the heights of the previous 2 singles which is seeing them peak gradually lower now with successive releases. It is good to see them reach the top 40, and they are one of the best bands around at the moment.

I may have mentioned this already but the current #1 is the 599th so whatever replaces it will be the 600th #1.

It won't necessarily be a new artist. This week's highest entry is by an artist who had a previous #1, back in 2010 with "Nightmare Day". Whilst Fun. climb to #3, their 4th top 5 hit on this chart, and they previously had a #1 with "We Are Young", which entered around this week one year ago. The next #1 might alternatively come from my current playlist, which has a couple of big names on it, or Army Navy may hold out for a while longer yet...

It's the same Rednex in theory, in practice that was just the name used by the producers who are from Sweden but the band proper are from Romania.

And Paul McCartney did the frog song, true that was later in his career but will that cause you to discard everything else he's done?

No but it was a long time until I could take him seriously again, his output since then has hardly been that good apart from possibly his last album. 'Ebony & Ivory' and 'Pipes Of Peace' were musical crimes as well you know!!
