Right...what a mess of a list. So many ties and such. Hung Up is still number one and My Only Wish is amazingly still number two (barely) although I haven't played it even once since the last chart - well it is a Christmas tune. Just wait till October and it will shoot up again! Beyonce madness continues, what with the Beyonce parties and Trevvy and the release of the B'Day DE and all this ensures that Irreplaceable climbs to third spot. Mariah was stagnant positions-wise on my last chart but leaps into the top 5. I will honestly never get sick of that song it's just great. An elegant yet epic ballad if there ever was one.

Get Right continues to hold steady. Still loving the horns! And Gwen makes a big splashy debut at number 8 with The Sweet Escape which I loved the moment I heard it on radio. BSB holding strong too due to a renewal of interest on my part in the song, and would you look at Pink charging in at number 10. If I'm not wrong she just missed out on the previous chart and has just been slowly going from strength to strength. Just like in the US. U + Ur Hand was the little train that could. It started off slowly and rose slowy, almost losing it's bullet several times, but enduring, and then recently it's charged all the way to number one (on CHR Pop). That's what a great song does. It certainly deserves the success it has had. In the States and on the Simonina chart.

The other Pink song, Leave Me Alone (I'm Lonely) also rises to number thirteen although I am a little sick of it. Outrageous...I didn't think it'd make it up to fourteen to be honest. Didn't feel like I've been playing it too much. Can't wait for new Britney. Sigh. Not Ready To Make Nice makes a nice debut at joint eighteen. Love the song. Get Together is just blah to me now, it's going to drop out by the time I publish my next chart...unless I meet someone I like or something, as was the case with Fall To Pieces on the previous chart. And guess what...we did fall to pieces.

Songs to watch out for. Extraordinary! I know it just fell out, but this is the kind of song that I may just start playing obsessively again soon (and I have been playing it recently). Upgrade U is somewhere there too. I thought it would have made it to this chart but somewhere along the line I just went "eh". It's a good song la but I guess I'm Beyonced out for now. Mmm. Umbrella certainly will be on the next chart, as will 4 In The Morning. Also worthy of mention is Say Somethin'. I have two versions, the original and the Morales mix, and it JUST missed out on the previous chart as well as this one. As in, seriously, by one spin. And it is a song I do play now and then so you never know.

See you again in 3 months!
