UK Pop Charts - 25 May 2008
Hi! Thanks for visiting Unreality Music! If you're new here, you may want to subscribe to our RSS feed for regular updates.
Yay! Chart time again people, and there’s a great mix of big names and new artists. I haven’t heard anything remotely good recently, mostly because the car broke down last week and I haven’t had the luxury of music on the drive to work!
And I could have picked some tunes out on YouTube, but I’ve come to the conclusion that YouTube actually degrades the listening experience and makes videos virtually unwatchable. It’s just poor quality all round. Better to switch on the music channels at home and crank up the volume!
- Rihanna - Take A Bow: The pop princess returns with a slower track that sticks the knife in a former lover. In a musical sense - I doubt Rihanna’s had her heart broken before ;)
- The Ting Tings - That’s Not My Name: Catchiest tune of the moment, this is the album that will launch the Ting Tings into the limelight.
- Madonna ft Justin Timberlake - 4 Minutes: Because Timbaland is the brains behind this release, it’ll linger in the charts for easily the next decade.
- Will.I.Am ft Cheryl Cole - Heartbreaker: Still smooth, Will.I.Am has regained respect with this mix of R&B and the sexiest female in British pop at the moment.
- Sam Sparro - Black & Gold: No comment.
- Wiley - Wearing My Rolex: Still class. I wonder if there’s a new grime movement waiting in the wings ready to take over the charts?
- Duffy - Warwick Avenue: The Duffster comes over all Katie Melua on us, and pulls off a silky smooth tune that far outshines Mercy.
- Usher ft Young Jeezy - Love In This Club: The word ‘anthemic’ can’t be used enough to describe this song. Epic R&B track.
- September - Cry For You: Lightweight dance track not worth commenting on really.
- Coldplay - Violet Hill: Chris Martin and his comrades pull off a minor miracle - convincing me that they’re a good band after all. Excellent tune.

There are so many online radios that you can tune into. I didn’t use a regular radio for years. You can just write the type of music you want to hear and you are automatically tuned in all the radio stations that are playing it. oh, and I heard the new Rihanna, it’s not actually bad for a pop singer.
