Here it is, the top 60 - yes it's posted one week late, and while I hope to get the next one out on Sunday or Monday, I will then slip behind again when I go away.

Still, I will catch up eventually because I always do.

Morrissey was the closest we have had for a while to a new entry at #1, but didn't quite make it (unlike in 1994 when he did). Still, he will probably be #1 next week. Bell X1 has been proving just too strong the last few weeks and has even prevented Belle & Sebastian from getting what would have been their 4th consecutive #1.

Following on from my comment on the previous chart about Pink Grease and Campag Velocet, last week Radio 4 added themselves to the UK's "Least Successful Chart Acts" by entering at UK #75. They've reached the NM chart with "Dance To The Underground" but the latest single is only among the bubblers. Campag Velocet are also among the bubblers this week.

That hypo psycho song is RUBBISH, nice to see Snow Patrol and Modest Mouse in there, but they should be at least 30 places higher...

And Neil, you seem to have played a laod of rubbish on your adio station yesterday...

[Earl Purple]

When I'm playing new releases, a lot of rubbish gets played. They do eventually get dropped from the playlist.

Hypo Psycho is not rubbish though - it's a fun ska-rock song and I like my ska-rock. Modest Mouse remind me a bit of Stellastarr, at least in the bits where he's singing high.

[Sofie]

Neil, I see what you mean about Modest Mouse and Stellarstar.

Haven't heard that Hypo Psycho song yet, do want to though.

It reminded me of a pisspoor busted.

In that case, no thanks...

[baskerville]

As usual, I don't know a fair number of your songs, but of the 26 I do know, I only dislike one. I'm attempting to download Bell x1 now and the Shane McGowan song appeals to me. For some odd reason Superhorny jumps out at me too.

In the past I've found many "unknowns" from your chart that I ended up really liking.
