Nice job, and go Guns n Roses! Let's hope Ashes to Ashes sparks some more reentries next week!

[wonderwall]

argh! chasing cars drives me mad

[Smurfie]

Lets hope this doesn't chart too much, I had a bugger of a time trying to spell it right!:

5 (NE) Israel Kamakawaiwo’ole – Somewhere Over The Rainbow (1)

I'm always curious to know why these tracks are knocking around the tail end of the chart. For example, where did Total Eclipse Of The Heart spring from?

Going back to 80's charts where they were re-issuing songs on Old Gold, I'm sure I read in the RM that You've Lost That Lovin Feeling, had charted for a good couple of years within the Top 200, but here its nowhere to be seen. Bizarre, why DJ Sammy all of a sudden?

[ManicKangaroo]

DJ Sammy is always in and out of the top 200, its just one of those tracka

Israel charted because it was featured heavily on Hollyoaks

Total Eclipse was on Dancing On Ice

Why thank you.

As I barely watch any TV these days, I would have missed all of these! Just curious to know.

There's always a tv programme to blame somewhere.

Can The Passions be downloaded do we know?

[ManicKangaroo]

Yep, its on 7Digital

Oh I do hope it makes the charts again

[ManicKangaroo]

It was briefly in the Itunes chart but dropped back out again
