UK Pop Chart - 6 April 2008

…and Estelle has the #1 position locked down for the third week in a row! American Boy is a pretty deserving Number 1 anyway, especially when you consider that only other worthwhile single - Chris Brown’s With You - seems to be sliding down the chart at the moment.

Let’s have a look at this week’s top ten singles…

  1. Estelle ft Kanye West - American Boy: Enough raving about the song - does Estelle’s dancing weird anyone else out? It’s slightly awkward and unsettling.
  2. Flo Rida ft T-Pain - Low: I’ve run out of things to say about this song - moronic in the extreme, but still fun to shout along to.
  3. Kooks - Always Where I Need To Be: The Kooks are back with their patent pending upbeat indie-rock. It sounds like more of the same, but since their formula was pretty good in the first place, that’s not a bad thing.
  4. Sam Sparro - Black & Gold: I asked last week who Sam Sparro is. And I still don’t know this week.
  5. Duffy - Mercy: A small but ‘merciful’ drop in chart position for Duffy. No ill-will toward the girl, but can we have a new single that isn’t quite so derivative next time?
  6. Mariah Carey - Touch My Body: Once she had a Vision Of Love, now all she wants us to do is touch her body. I think I preferred the 1990 version of Mariah to the present-day tarty diva.
  7. Leona Lewis - Better In Time: And speaking of divas, here’s a classy one. Ms Lewis, I hope your career extends long beyond that shiny-faced mutant Carey and her awful performing boobs.
  8. Madonna ft Justin Timberlake - 4 Minutes: You can’t watch the video on YouTube, which is a major faux pas in this day and age. Why are so many old-school artists afraid of the Internet?
  9. Chris Brown - With You: Cool song. And with such a strong hook I was convinced I’d heard it before. An instant classic?
  10. Nickelback - Rockstar: This song is the musical equivalent of chewing gum stuck to your shoe - you can’t scrape it off the charts no matter how hard you try.
