So this week we finally got some stability at the very top of the ARIA singles chart and I am kind of glad of that because I was starting to get frustrated at the revolving door cycle of number ones we were having but anyhow let's get to the top ten where for a second week, it's "Groovejet (If This Ain't Love)" by Spiller at the top again riding some pretty solid sales. it kept hold of the top spot despite a surge from a new entry from the Spice Girls (now minus Geri) called "Holler" which debuted at number two which I guess got hype off the back of the curiosity of how the group would sound without Geri Halliwell.
However it looks like Wheatus are going to be the big challenger for number one as it rose two places to number three on the back of some pretty good sales, this song could well be the next number one, hell it flew past "Beautiful Day" by U2 which remained steady at number four and right behind them is this week's big top ten gainer "Gotta Tell You" by Samantha Mumba which flew into up six places to number five! Wowsers!
"She Bangs" by Ricky Martin has less bang this week as it clattered down three places to number six while Craig David asking to be filled in at number seven for another week with "Fill Me In"
Pink's "Most Girls" got hit with a six place drop as it slipped down to number eight while unfortunately up a place is "B-Boys & Flygirls" to number nine.
Finally rounding out the top ten is "On A Night Like This" by Kylie Minogue.
Gains
Continuing it's rise is "Friends Forever (Graduation)" by Vitamin C which hit the top 20 up from 22 to 17 this week, this song will hit the top ten eventually.
"Lady (Hear Me Tonight)" by Modjo rose five places to 31. One of the biggest rises of the week belongs to American rock band Matchbox Twenty as they climbed ten places to 38 which is fine because I like the song while Bardot's "These Days" recovered nine places to 33.
Losers
Let's deal with a lot of losers this week so we'll start with the hits that are fading naturally like Britney Spears "Lucky" down eleven places to 48 and "Try Again" by Aaliyah which dropped from 31 to 44 this week (ouch).
Dropping out of the top ten is "Come On Over Baby (All I Want is You)" by Christina Aguilera which dropped from 9 to 16 this week.
Then there are songs that have just lost all momentum like "Rome Wasn't Built in a day" by Morcheeba which plunged eleven places to 49, "Absolutely (Story of a Girl)" by Nine Days dropping nine places to 41, "Give Me Just One Night (Una Noche" by 98 Degrees slipped eight places to number 37 while Girl Thing's "Last One Standing" got sat down at 35 down from 28.
New Entries
So what else turned up this week apart from the Spice Girls having the biggest new entry of the week with "Holler" at number two?
Well, Jimmy Barnes is at 18 with his cover of Aretha Franklin's "Chain of Fools". The Offspring have let "Original Prankster" off the chain at number 39 while Blink 182 are shouting "Man Overboard" lodging at 40.
Finally, Paul Kelly's "Roll on Summer (EP)" debuts at number 50
