2000 Sound: 8th October. Lady, Give Me Just One Night as Most Girls goes to the top

 So right now I am not sure where on earth things are heading on the singles chart right now mostly because there's no clear sign of what has momentum and traction going forward especially as we got a new number one this week so let's dig in starting with the top ten where Pink snags her first number one single in Australia with "Most Girls" riding whatever sales traction it can get to the top of the charts but this is not going to last especially with "Music" by Madonna falling back to number two but it's still a player for the top here. 

As is "Shackles (Praise You)" by Mary Mary which climbed one  place to number three while Robbie Williams regained a place to number four with "Rock DJ" although this might be because "On A Night Like This" by Kylie Minogue just lost steam to drop two places to number five.

"Fill Me In" by Craig David continues to rise climbing one place to number six, this song is doing surprisingly well. 

What I didn't need to get a three place boost to number seven is "B-Boys & Flygirls" by Bomfunk MCs because somehow we have to make this too annoying to be background noise a hit.

Well at least Spiller's "Grrovejet (If This Ain't Love)" arrived in the top ten up three places to number eight. It's a welcome presence in the top ten, the song is pretty good.

Down three places to number nine is "Everything You Need" by Madison Avenue while finally the second of the new arrivals to the top ten is "Come On Over Baby (All I Want Is You)" by Christina Aguilera which rose six places to number ten.


Gains

So we had some sizeable gains this week particularly from Samantha Mumba with "Gotta Tell You" up nine spots to 23 while "I Wanna Be With You" by Mandy Moore is up eleven to 14. 

Madasun's slow rise continues as "Don't You Worry" jumps five places to 15 while "U.G.L.Y" by Daphne & Celeste also climbed five to 40.


Re-Entries

Just the one return with Toni Braxton's "Spanish Guitar" back at number 48.


Losers

Sisqo's "Unleash the Dragon" falls eight places to 43 while "Gravity"  by The Superjesus drops from 39 to 44 (bit of a shame really because that song is great).

"If I Told You That" by Whitney Houston and George Michael slipped from 37 to 41 while "Toca's Miracle" by Fragma is losing steam as it fell from 38 to 42 this week.

"Bug A Boo" by Destiny's Child got scared by a bug so it's down off it's debut to 33. 

"The Real Slim Shady" by Eminem plunged eight places to 30...bit surprising, thought for sure this was going to be a top ten hit. "Something Deep Inside" by Billie Piper slipped five to 29 off of it's debut. 

Then there are two hits that fell hard this week, one being "Jumpin' Jumpin'" by Destiny's Child down nine to 23 while Anastacia's "I'm Outta Love" also plunged nine to be unceremoniously dumped from the top ten to 17.

New Entries

The biggest new entry came from boy band 98 Degrees at number 21 with "Give Me Just One night (Una Noche)". The song is tolerable so I guess I wouldn't mind if it becomes a hit.

Savage Garden are dancing to Madonna with their new single called "Chained to You" at number 28 while Vengaboys dive in at 45 with "Uncle John from Jamaica"

Finally a song that appears to be gaining traction and could well be a hit comes from a French house dup calling themselves Modjo and they are in at number 50 with "Lady (Hear Me Tonight)"
