Chart Report - 06/01/08
1- Leon Jackson- 'When You Believe'
ChartSnipe: Hey, I thought this was supposed to be a NEW year? Look at this Top 5...it's pitiful. Same No.1 as before Christmas, Soulja Boy has come back up, Leona won't go home, Timbaland is setting up his OneRepublic in the British Charts, in what seems to be a bloodless coup, and Take That are BACK. It's as if the festive season never happened, which, bearing in mind that it's twelfth night and all the decorations are now down, might as well be the case. New songs, please! (FM)
=======================
2 - Soulja Boy Tellem - 'Crank That (Soulja Boy)'
ChartSnipe: I'm sure there's a perfectly logical reason why Soulja Boy has chosen to add that 'Tellem' gubbins to his name there. I'm sure it can't be as daft as him trying to claim people are ordering him to spread the truth about his funny dance routine, and that he hears those words so often he might as well be called them. There's overconfidence and then there's just rank showing off... (FM)
=======================
3 - Leona Lewis - 'Bleeding Love'
ChartSnipe: It's the biggest-selling single of 2007, y'know. Don't let it be 2008's as well, people will emigrate. (FM)
=======================
4 - Timbaland pts. OneRepublic - 'Apologize'
ChartSnipe: Hey what's with all this sticking two words together and keeping the capital letter in the middle? What's wrong with calling your band One Republic, eh? Are you worried that people will get bored in between the first word and the second and so you have to rush them through the whole name just keep their attention? Or are you trying to be all iPod trendy? Well, you'd never catch ChartBlog doing anything as lame as that. Nosireebob. (FM)
=======================
5 - Take That - 'Rule The World'
ChartSnipe: Is there any band that's not staging a comeback right now? Take That are back for good, the Spice Girls are planning to reconquer the world, as are the Backstreet Boys, All Saints and the four-piece Five have been and gone, apparently even Boyzone are thinking about it (they've all been called to a Ronan Meeting). We're still holding out for the Reynolds Girls comeback tour. (SP)
