2000 Sound. 9th July. "Freestyler" boms up at number one. Eminem asks for The Real Slim Shady in the new entries

Ugh, this week was a wild one, we have moves all over the place, the top ten is ever changing and unstable right now in an otherwise pretty normal week but lets get to our top ten where we have a new number one in the form of...sigh..."Freestyler" by Bomfunk MCs, it got there because sales were pretty solid right across the board.
It held off "I'm Outta Love" by Anastacia rose 3 places to number two and looks like massive threat for the number one song which I don't mind as the song is pretty damn good...certainly take it over "Thong Song" by Sisqo which refuses to go away by regaining one spot to number three this week. Gross.

Former number one "Who the Hell Are You" by Madison Avenue dropped two places this week to number four as people get tired of it pretty damn quickly. "Spinning Around" by Kyle Minogue collapsed on sales which resulted in it falling from number one to number five. Ouch.

Not so for "It's My Life" by Bon Jovi which regained one place to number six. This song is sticking around rather impressively right now, the same can't be said of "There You Go" by Pink which slipped one to number seven but it's on its way out naturally and will make the year end list.

Now we get to the first of two songs new to the top ten this week with "Toca's Miracle" by Fragma rising six places to number eight, this is looking like being a surprise hit folks.

Finally reaching the top ten is Billie Piper's "Day & Night" which climbed two places to number nine this week. Good. I actually like this song more than most of the songs Billie has released previously.

Rounding out the top ten is "He Wasn't Man Enough" by Toni Braxton which is clinging to number ten down one place from last week. This should be gone soon.


Gains

Continuing it's unfortunate rise is "I think I'm in Love with You" by Jessica Simpson which rose five places to number 20. Eww.

"Live Without It" by Killing Heidi also climbed five places to 25. I hope this isn't a hit, it isn't a good song. 

The biggest gainer of the week though was "It Feels So Good" by Sonique which climbed nine places to 32 off it's debut last week. Looks like this song has struck a chord out there.

"Breathless" by The Corrs went up six places to 42.

Losers

Not too many big losers worth noting this week but No Doubt's "Ex-Girlfriend" falling ten places to 48 while "Breathe" by Faith Hill hasn't caught on in Australia as it did in the US as it fell eleven places to 43.

Sister2Sister "What's a Girl to Do?" fell seven to 28.

New Entries

So the highrst new entry of the week belongs to American rapper Eminem whose controversial new single "The Real Slim Shady" enters the chart at 27, the song features potshots at Britney Spears amongst others.

Italian electronic producers Mario Piu and Mauro Picotto land at 36 with "Arabian Pleasure" while Australian DJ Friendly hits the chart at 44 with "I Love You But...".

Finally Lock 'n' Load hit the chart at 45 with "Blow Ya Mind"
