Charting 1996: 21st July.

Well this week feels a bit more normal, the top ten pretty quiet except for a couple of move here and there but I get the feeling that there's more big changes on the horizon with some songs moving up.

Fugees spend a fourth week at number one with "Killing Me Softly", its pretty settled at number one now and it looks to be there for another couple of weeks, it kept "Theme from Mission Impossible" by Adam Clayton and Larry Mullen at number two and "Because You Loved Me" by Celine Dion at number three.

There was a change within the top 5 though with "Just A Girl" by No Doubt moving to number four pushing "Nobody Knows" by The Tony Rich Project back to number five.

From there though, the rest of the top ten looks fairly stagnant with "Glycerine" by Bush at number six, "Children" by Robert Miles at number seven "Ooh Aah...Just A Little Bit" by Gina G at number eight and "X-Files Theme (Version Dance" by Triple X at number 9.

LeAnn Rimes has her first top ten hit with "Blue" jumping four places to number ten.

Gains

Big gain for PJ & Duncan with "Stepping Stone" up to 25 from 40 and "I Love to Love" by La Bouche gaining big from 31 to 17. 

The Corrs also jumped 11 places to number 30 with "Forgiven, Not Forgotten" off the debut last week.

Losers

Some big losers this week most notably for former number one "How Bizarre" by OMC which crashed eleven places to 46.

Oasis also took a big fourteen place plunge with "Champagne Supernova" down to 40.

Eclipse's cover of "The Look of Love" stumbled down nine to 39.

Unfortunately Powderfinger dropped the ball with "Pick You Up" down from 24 to 35.
