7 N Somebody Told Me - The Killers ;D raaaah! great song. nice to see it doing so well

9 N There's No Home For You Here - The White Stripes ;D perhaps not the best choice for a single, but rather great nonetheless. so much for black math, though

16 N Rapid Hope Loss - Dashboard Confessional ;D yay! really like this actually, though of course not as lovely as hands down

19 N Feelin' Way Too Damn Good - Nickelback decent effort from nickelback, nice to see that once in a while also very fond of the lyrics

27 N My Angel Rocks Back And Forth - Four Tet ;D i really like this, actually... it's not thrilling, admittedly, but it does grow. beautiful melody towards the end. me and my love of chillout, eh

[frag]

I hope the Four Tet one does grow... else it'll drop out next week

2 >< 2 Run - Snow Patrol 8 1
6 \/ 4 I Miss You - Blink 182 3 4
8 >< 8 Take Me Out - Franz Ferdinand 10 1
14 \/ 12 Somewhere Only We Know - Keane 5 6

25 \/ 18 Cry - Alex Parks 5 5

I know and like those! ;D Alex Parks is probably my fav, closely followed by Blink 182.

Well done on FIVE years of your chart! Good to still see The Offspring in there

I think they're the only band to be in the chart during 1999, 2000, 2001, 2002 and 2004! They didn't have any songs during 2003

Nice Goldfrapp track - do you have their first album 'Felt Mountain' - very much cinematic, orchestral landscapes. Download 'Utopia' now! ;D

If I still did a chart Keane would be at the fifth week at no.1!

I'm a fairly big B+S fan but 'Cuckoo' again isn't their best. Their 'Arab Strap' and 'Sinister' albums are hilarious!

I loved Snow Patrol track but tired of it now... oh and get rid of Nickelback - you know it makes sense!

I downloaded their entire current album a few weeks ago... quite good. might go for a few tracks off 'felt mountain' soon too.

If I still did a chart Keane would be at the fifth week at no.1!

it's dropping slowly... quite a lot of great stuff in the chart ATM.

I'm a fairly big B+S fan but 'Cuckoo' again isn't their best. Their 'Arab Strap' and 'Sinister' albums are hilarious!

have only heard their most recent two singles but 'cuckoo' has really grown on me - happeee ;D

I loved Snow Patrol track but tired of it now... oh and get rid of Nickelback - you know it makes sense!

the snow patrol track can't stay at the top forever... look at what's rising up to meet it.
as for nickelback, their previous one failed to chart, this one is better. also fond of the lyrics

thanks for your comments HP

new chart coming tomorrow or tuesday... only just finished downloading the new entries

[Earl Purple]

You still have the same #1 as me.

And your highest new entry was my 2nd highest entry this week.
