The new Top 40, then… 3

  • November 12, 2007
  • Popjustice

What have we learned?

Number One: 'Bleeding Love' is the biggest selling single of 2007. 'A Moment Like This' was the biggest selling single of 2006. We can't see 'Hope' claiming the same sort of success in the next 12 months. Actually is it fastest selling rather than biggest selling? Maybe it's both. Basically the point is that 'Bleeding Love' has done quite well.


Number 7:
Craig David is more popular this week than Kylie, Geri, Mel B, Mel C, Emma and Victoria.


Number 9:
  So, for that matter, is Alicia Keys.

Number 12: Getting a Number One with this single seems slightly unlikely although not outside of the realms of pos­sib­il­ity.


Number 14:
Nicole Scherzinger has now got a UK Top 15 hit to call her own.


Number 20:
Perhaps people just do not have time for charity these days.


Number 44:
This would be where Palladium's 'High Five' single finds itself. 'Slow burn' etc etc.


Number 74:
Nobody bought the Seal single.

So there you have it.
