For only the second time in nearly 28 years, there is just one new entry in the Top 40. In February 1989, ";Love, Truth and Honesty"; by Bananarama made room for ";We Cheer You Up"; by Barbarella - and in July 2007, ";Dancing in The Dark"; by Micky Modelle vs Jessy is replaced by ";The Worrying Kind"; by The Ark. It's the 74th Eurovision entry to reach the Top 40, the sixth from Sweden, but only the second of 2007. The other recent entry, the UK's Scooch, continue to fly their flag at number 12, one of thirteen non-movers in this month's chart - and these include all of last month's top three. Although for some time it looked as if Liz Kay might return to the top with ";When Love Becomes A Lie";, in the end BZN held on for a second month at number one with their farewell tour single, ";Goodbye";.
Milk Inc spend a third month at number three with ";No Angel";, but now fall out of the top ten with ";Run"; - one of seventeen records moving down this time. These include Charlotte Gainsbourg with ";The Songs That We Sing"; - the fastest faller, down from 19 to 33 - and Cascada with ";Everytime We Touch"; - the longest laster, clinging on in the chart, down from 39 to 40. It has now made more appearances in the Top 40 than any single released in the 1990's - without ever going higher than number 15 - and is the second longest runner of the current decade. That leaves just nine hits moving up this month - mostly by only a few places, although Ilona Mitrecey races from 36 to 23 with her third hit ";Allo Allo";, and ";She's Madonna"; by Robbie Williams and the Pet Shop Boys is the rapid riser, jumping from 28 to 13.
As several of last month's breakers depart, mostly having spent the maximum period of a year missing the Top 40, there are six new potential hits, and two former hits which may be about to chart again. ";Stars On 45 Proudly Presents The Star Sisters"; (re-released in Holland) and ";Handle With Care"; by Traveling Wilburys (re-released everywhere!) return to the breakers, having both originally reached the top five in the 1980's - the decade celebrated by Fixkes with their long-running Belgian number one ";Kvraagetaan";. Other new breakers from the same territory come from Sylver and Regi featuring Scala, while there are also possible future hits for Djuma Soundsystem and ATB featuring Heather Nova. But the song which is guaranteed a place in next month's chart is one that I heard for the first time in an episode of BBC THREE's ";Doctor Who Confidential";. Research revealed it to be a track from a 2004 album which has already generated three top ten hits - KT Tunstall's ";Eye To The Telescope";. So another hit will now follow ";The Other Side of The World";, ";Suddenly I See"; and ";Under The Weather"; - ";Through The Dark";.
