2000 Sound: 29th October: If This Ain't Love for Spiller Groovejetting to number 1

Another busy old week on the ARIA singles chart where for yet another week we have a new number one courtesy of Spiller's "Groovejet (If This Ain't Love)" which climbed two places hit the top spot...and really when you think about it it was about time, it's an open question of whether it will stay at number one but it locked "Most Girls" by Pink out of top spot as it remained at number two for another week.

Ricky Martin has this week's highest debut at number three with "She Bangs" thanks to massive sales that couldn't quite match the top two. 

All this meant last week's number one "Beautiful Day" by U2 got pushed back to number four as sales fell off following it's debut at number one last week but it's going come under threat from "Teenage Dirtbag" by Wheatus which had the biggest gain of anything inside the top ten as it rose five places to number five.

Hell, it blew right place "On A Night Like This" by Kylie Minogue which suffered a two place stumble to number six while Craig David's "Fill Me In" recovered one place to number seven. 

Mostly because "Shackles (Praise You)" by Mary Mary slipped three places to number eight, it's on its way out. 

Rising two places to number nine is "Come On Over Baby (All I Want is You)" by Christina Aguilera, this song could climb higher in the weeks ahead, it's got traction, it pushed back "B-Boys & Flygirls" by Bomfunk MCs which slipped one place to number ten which is good news but I just hope it leaves the chart altogether sooner rather than later.

Gains

In good news "Black Coffee" by All Saints rebounded from 45 up to 25. That song is still a really damn good one. 

Vitamin C's "Friends Forever (Graduation)" continues to pick up steam as it rose from 29 to 22. 

Green Day's "Minority" climbed six places to 30 while "Lady (Hear Me Tonight" by Modjo jumped from 41 to 36 because it's a hit in the making.

Losers

Most of the big losses came for songs that have been hits this year and are on their way out anyway like Madonna's "Music" which fell nine places to 16, "Rock DJ" by Robbie Williams tumbled seven spots to 13, "Try Again" by Aaliyah tumbled from 26 to 31, "We Will Rock You" by Five and Queen got rocked down nine spots to 33, "Lucky" by Britney Spears had its luck run out as it collapsed from 25 to 37, "Breathless" by The Corrs lived up to it's name by sliding ten to 40 and finally "I'm Outta Love" by Anastacia collapsed from 31 to 47.

There are two songs that just haven't quite got going with "These Days" by Bardot having its days on the chart drawing to a close down ten to 42 while "Out of Your Mind" bt True Steppers feat. Victoria Beckham dropped from 38 to 44 as it sputters to an end of its run.

New Entries

So I already mentioned "She Bangs" by Ricky Martin being the highest debut of the week at number three so let's see what else turned up on the chart...

The Living End are back at number 18 with their latest single called "Pictures in the Mirror", Sash! sees into the chart at number 39 with "With My Own Eyes" and finally Matchbox Twenty are back on the chart at number 48 with "If You're Gone"
