On this week's exciting new UK singles chart, we have not a new entry within the Top 10. But there's so much more going on, such as—uh, well. Hmmm.Why don't we instead look at the Top 10 from one year ago this week, first:
The U.K. Top 10 this week in 2009:
1. "I'm Not Alone" - Calvin Harris *1 week*
2. "Poker Face" - Lady GaGa
3. "Jai Ho'" - Ar Rahman feat. Pussycat Dolls
4. "In For The Kill'" - La Roux
5. "Don't Upset The Rhythm (Go Baby Go)" - The Noisettes
6. "Love Sex Magic" - Ciara feat. Justin Timberlake
7. "Halo" - Beyonce
8. "Shake It" - Metro Station
9. "Right Round" - Flo Rida feat. Kesha
10. "Love Story'" - Taylor Swift
Golly, that's like 15 times more exciting (save for the Taylor Swift and Ciara/Timberlake garbage cluttering things up), no?
Anyway, back to this week. On the album chart, Lady Gaga's The Fame knocks Boyzone's Brother off the top, and, well, I'm off to go read a book now.
