10 NEW 1 Hung Up - Madonna

I'll start with just the top 10 this week. Perhaps later I'll start posting the entire top 40 in expanded posts. TW=This week, LW=last week, WKS=wks on chart (entire top 40, not just top 10). Bolded TW numbers indicate singles generally climbing the chart. Number one singles, including former number ones, will show how many weeks they have spent at the top.

This week - Robbie Williams spends a third week at the top with "Tripping," the first single from his new album Intensive Care, which this weeks tops the UK albums chart. My copy hasn't arrived yet, but I eagerly anticipating it. A rare top 10 debut also this week, but no surprise that such a feat would be achieved by Madonna. "Hung Up" is the first single from her forthcoming Confessions on a Dancefloor, and is sure to spend many weeks at the top of my list. All but #3 are current UK hits, #3 and #6 are big US top 40 hits, while #7 and #9 have achieved some airplay on other US radio formats. Mediabase data show that Madonna is rapidly climbing the top 40 and has cracked the top 30.
