So unlike last week where it was quiet, we have another busy week to deal with a slew of new entries including one in the top ten so let's boogie on down and start there, no change at the top with Anastacia's "I'm Outta Love" spending a fifth week at the top, I'm not certain she'll get a sixth as Madonna's releasing a new song called "Music" which is bound to do well so we'll have to see.
Sitting at number two is "Jumpin' Jumpin'" by Destiny's Child as it did last week, it's not really looking like a player for top spot right now. Five and Queen's "We Will Rock You" climbed one place to number 3 on the back of a solid sales week.
There's a new entry in at number four, it comes from Brisbane band Powderfinger with a song called "My Happiness", it had a fantastic first week of sales, it comes from Powderfinger's upcoming album called "Odyssey Number Five".
Now all of this saw former number one "Freestyler" by Bomfunk MCs fall back two places to number five, the song is slowly losing ground and will likely tumble further in the weeks ahead.
At number six, we have the biggest gainer of the week with "Lucky" by Britney Spears rising 14 places! This one was a bit out of nowhere tbh especially as its a bit of a bland pop song coming from Britney!
The Corrs are "Breathless" remain at number seven while Ronan Keating leaps up five places to number eight with "Life is a Rollercoaster".
The Vengaboys are slowly fading out of the top ten with "Shalala Lala" down one place to number nine while Aaliyah's "Try Again" falls back to number ten.
Gains
Already talked about the bi gains for "Lucky" by Britney Spears and "Life is a Rollercoaster" by Ronan Keating into the top ten on an otherwise quiet week for gains with "Could I Have This Kiss Forever" by Whitney Houston and Enrique Iglesias up six to 12 while "Shackles (Praise You)" by Mary Mary is up ten places to 15.
"Rip It Up by 28 Days broke into the top twenty by rising four places to 18
Re Entries
Just the one return this week with Santana's "Maria Maria" feat. The Product G&B back at number 50.
Losers
On a week where we have a LOT of new entries it's not surprising there was a while swathe of songs that lost big, let's start with former number two hit "Never Be the Same Again" which plunged from 35 to 49 this week as it slowly exits the chart.
Sister 2 Sister's "Too Many Times" dived nine places to number 47 while "Sandstorm" by Darude dropped five places to 48. "I Wanna Know" by Joe skidded down six places to number 46.
"Just Around the Hill" by Sash! is finding that hill insurmountable as it dropped from 37 to 42 whole Mandy Moore's "So Real" hit 40, a drop of seven places.
"Doesn't Really Matter" by Janet Jackson copped a ten place hit to 38. while "Its Gonna Be Me" by *NSYNC eleven place plunge means it's not gonna be them at 34.
"Breathe" by Faith Hill hit 32 down from 26.
However the big story is three songs in the top ten last week all took enormous dives with two of those dives being more than fucking welome with "Thong Song" by Sisqo having a wedgie performed on him down to 25 from 6 last week and Madison Avenue's "Who The Hell Are You" dropping nine places to 19. The other song to take a hit is "It's My Life" by Bon Jovi which tumbled from 5 to 23...ouch.
New Entries
So beyond "My Hapiness" by Powderfinger at number four, we got a slew of other new songs this week beginning at number 20 with Sisqo's "Unleash The Dragon"...this song is pretty fucking awful...so I'll be fine with this falling off.
British R&B singer Craig David turns up at 22 with "Fill Me In", his first single on the ARIA singles chart, I feel pretty indifferent toward this song, it's fine but meh...
Leah Haywood returns with her new single called "Crazy" at 31 while Australian nu metal band Sunk Loto land on the chart with "Make You Feel" at 33.
British three piece girl group Madasun have their first Australian charting single with "Don't You Worry" in at number 39, I actually really like this song..the harmonies are good and the song's message is a brutal goodbye to an ex that she has moved on and doing fine.
Finally in what maybe the most corny but fun pop song to hit the chart in some time..."Reach" by S Club 7 debuts at number 44.
