Chart update – w/c 12 Apr 2010
By CMU Editorial | Published on Monday 12 April 2010
Scouting For Girls are still at number one in the singles chart, despite a valiant effort by Usher to topple them. The R&B star’s latest single, ‘OMG’, which features that Will.i.am guy, moved up six places to number two this week. Meanwhile, Timbaland’s Justin Timberlake collaboration, ‘Carry Out’, slipped quietly into the top ten, moving up ten places to six.
In the exciting world of new entries, Joshua Radin went straight in at number eleven with ‘I’d Rather Be With You’, Paramore’s ‘The Only Exception’ is new at 33, and Taio Cruz’s latest offering, ‘Dirty Picture’, featuring Ke$ha, is in at 40.
Right, now we’ve got the formality of the singles chart out of the way, let’s have a look at where Lady Gaga is in the album chart this week. Where do think? Two? Three? Eighteen? No! Lady Gaga is back at number one for the fourth bloody time. Well, at least she’s being fair by letting other people have a go in between her stints at the top.
Those pitifully challenging Gaga’s latest successful bid to get to the top with new releases this week were Doves with their new best of, which managed to claw its way up to twelve, Sigur Rós frontman Jónsi, who went in at 20 with his solo album ‘Go’, one place ahead of Rufus Wainwright with ‘All Days Are Nights: Songs For Lulu’. And finally, Slash went straight in at 30 with his eponymous solo album.
The Gagas are compiled by the Official Gagas Company.
