10. (1)Alexandra Burke - Start Without You

We have a new number one! I love this song and I did expect it to get to the top spot. This is Tinie's second number 1 and his debut album is released tomorrow! 

We have a new entry and a re-entry this week. Labrinth who has collaborated with Tinie Tempah several times has entered at number 3 with his debut single. Meanwhile Adele has re-entered the chart at number 4 with 'Make You Feel My Love'. Originally released in 2008. It only got to 28! This will be because of it's extensive play on The X Factor last weekend. 

The rest of the chart remains unchanged with the exception of a few movements. Alexandra Burke has took a mighty tumble from the top spot, barley clinging on in the top 10. But Enrique Iglesias and Nicole Scherzinger have managed to get into the top 10 with their amazing song! I expected it to get higher, but there's still time right?

And that's your lot.

Alexandra Burke gets another week at the top spot! The chart hasn't really changed in term of music this week. They've just changed places. Only one new entry this week with Shontelle with a decent song. Goes on a bit, but it's alright. Glad to see Usher make his way into the top 10. I love that song so much.

Less chit chat, more music!


12/09/10 - 26/09/10

1. (-) Alexandra Burke - Start Without You
2. (2)Katy Perry - Teenage Dream
3. (3)Taio Cruz - Dynamite
4. (1)Olly Murs - Please Don't Let Me Go
5. (-)The Script - For The First Time

8. (8)Katy B - Katy On A Mission
9. (5)Flo Rida - Club Can't handle Me (featuring David Guetta)
10. (-)Emma's Imagination - This Day

Yet again we have a new number 1! Alexandra Burke scores her 3rd number 1. While I do like this song, I feel like I shouldn't. It seems very odd for her but I'm sure she's happy right now. I expected McFly to get higher with their new song, which I really love. As you can see, at number 10 there's another new 'Must Be The Music' entry! That show seems to be making a big impact. 


In other chart news, Brandon Flowers topped the album charts with his debut album 'Flamingo'. I have yet to hear any of it except his single 'Crossfire' so I can't pass judgement right now.
