Chart Commentary 11/11/06
Singles
-------
Due to McFly's crash-dive*, Fedde Le Grande takes over at #1, almost by
default.
* One of the biggest-ever falls from #1, especially when you exclude
limited editions, like Elvis re-releases.
New Entries (incl.download climbers)
Top 10 : Bodyrox #2, U2/Green Day #6
Top 20 : All Saints #11, Simon Webbe #12, Depeche Mode #13,
Babyshambles #17, Jamiroquai #18, Keane #19
Top 30 : The Good The Bad & The Queen #22, Tenacious D #24, Panic At The
Disco #25, Game #26, Klaxons #29, Sugababes #30,
Top 40 : Sean Paul #31
I can only assume that Christina's single was delayed, or she surely
would have charted.
Albums
------
Girls Aloud claim their first #1 album.
Top 20 NE's for : Amy Winehouse #3, The Who #9, Madeleine Peyroux #12,
Tony Bennett #15, Aerosmith #19.
Next Week
---------
Singles
-------
What a difficult one to predict, with about a months worth of decent new
releases crammed into a single week! At least they should flush lots of
old singles out of the top 40 like an enema. :)
My guess for #1 would be Westlife, based on their past record, but it'll
probably be a tough fight with U2.
NE's (incl.download climbers)
Top 10 : U2/Green Day, All Saints, Madonna, Sugababes, Infernal
Top 20 : Gnarls Barkley, Kasabian, Lucie Silvas, Paul Weller
Top 30 : Alesha, George Michael & Mutya, Michelle Marsh, Paris Hilton
Top 40 : Fatboy Slim, Ferry Corsten
Not much room for any download-only entries, but maybe : Akon, Justin
Timberlake, Oasis (if eligible), Robbie, Ronan, Snow Patrol
Albums
------
McFly look to be the most likely #1 - their fanbase is usually good for
one week.
Top 5 : Damien Rice, Magic Numbers, Katherine Jenkins
Top 10 : Jamiroquai, Paul Weller
Top 20 : Cliff, Long Blondes
