In January 2010,
Lady GaGa had four simultaneous hits in my top forty - but now two of those drop out, and the biggest share of the action goes to two British singer/songwriters, who have three appearances each.
Lily Allen has one of just eight climbers, as “22” races up fourteen places to number 20; one of five non-movers with “Not Fair” at 15; and the fastest faller for the second month in a row with “F--k You”, diving down another eleven places to 33. And
Little Boots has one of seven new entries with “Earthquake”, just above that at number 32; a non-mover at number seven with her version of “Love Kills”; and another of the twenty hits moving down with the former number one “Remedy”, which slides five places to number six. In the early part of the month, it looked as if Lady GaGa was on her way to a second number one in my chart - but “Bad Romance” ultimately ended up climbing three places to number two. Instead, my 176th chart-topper in thirty and a half years is the electro-frentic “I Think I like It” by
Fake Blood - which, according to one recent reviewer,
“could pass for a Eurovision entry circa 1976”! Its chart success across the continent has been somewhat limited so far - but there’s always hope......
Other climbers this month include a third top five hit for
David Guetta with “Grrrr”, and a second top ten hit for
Agnes with “On And On” - while
Lasgo have the Rapid Riser with “Lost”, leaping sixteen places to number 24. Meanwhile, the longest laster, down seven places to number 36 in its eleventh month in my chart, is the former Chartbuster and former number one from the film “Berlin Calling” - “Sky And Sand”. And this is just below another track from that film, the instrumental “Azure”. This now becomes the second top forty entry for
Paul Kalkbrenner - while four of the other new arrivals are also by acts doubling their tally of hits, and the highest of these is also an instrumental.
Ron van den Beuken could only reach number 26 last year with “Far Away“, sung by
Nicole Tyler - but now he has teamed up with
Maarten De Jong for “Life‘s Too Short“, straight in at number ten.
AnnaGrace’s first solo hit, “Let The Feelings Go”, slides just one place to number 22 in its eighth month - and her second, last month’s Chartbuster “Love Keeps Calling”, arrives at number 17. The only previous hit for
Miss Kittin was my Chartbuster in July 2002 - that was “Rippin Kittin”, which went on to reach my top five. Now, after a long absence, she is back in my top forty with “1000 Dreams”, at number 39. Two places higher is
Mika - his only previous entry was “Happy Ending”, which peaked at number 34, so he now only needs to climb three places to match that with “Rain”. And the only act making a chart debut this month is
Owl City - the current UK number one, “Fireflies”, comes in at number 40.
Returning to my top forty breakers this month is a former hit by
Alphaville, “Forever Young” - as the current UK success of a new version of that composition has reminded me of how much better it was without somebody (c)rapping over it. However, two other recent major UK hits have just begun to impress me (even though I have been hearing them both for months!) and now arrive in the top 40 breakers -
Sidney Samson with “Riverside” and
Ke$ha with “Tik Tok”. Among seven other new potential future hits this time, four acts with former and current successes could be about to add more - Lily Allen,
Cascada, Lady GaGa and
Tocadisco - while the other three are from acts impressing me for the first time.
Jes Brieden was formerly with the group
Motorcycle, and could chart with “Lovesong”, a single from her upcoming solo album “Highglow”; while the rather more well-known 30-year-old American singer-songwriter
Norah Jones has the second most impressive new breaker of the month with “Chasing Pirates”. But the Chartbuster, guaranteed a place in my March 2010 top forty, is a Eurodance/Trance project of
Jeff X. Sutorius, a 30-year-old Dutch producer and DJ. From the album “New Daylight”, and with vocals by
Emma Hewitt, my Record of the Month for February 2010 is
Dash Berlin, with “
Waiting”.

I like seeing Frances Ruffelle especially~!
