No serious challenge to Take That spending at second week at #1, although a few singles will vy for the top 10. The week's big release is Nelly Furtado's third Loose single, "All Good Things (Come to an End)," which made a big splash on the singles chart last week by debuting at #13 on downloads, an unusually high debut for an album's third single. Furtado keeps up her winning streak with another great track, this time a ballad written by Coldplay's Chris Martin.
The Killers offer their second Sam's Town single, Bones, another of the album's standout tracks with a good dose of '80s-style keyboarding. Fergie's second single, "Fergalicious" is silly, but so much fun. It has a better beat than "London Bridge," and is great fun. Scottish rockers the Fratellis had their first top 1o single with their last release, "Chelsea Dagger." They hope to repeat that success with "Whistle for the Choir," a fantastic song.
Straight to the rubbish bin goes Janet Jackson's latest single "So Excited." So bored is more like it, as that's how she sounds and after a listen so will you. My how the mighty have fallen. Nelly Furtado (4.5/5), The Killers (4.5/5), Fergie (4/5), The Fratellis (4/5), Janet Jackson (1/5).
Boybands will be duking it out for #1 on the albums chart this week. Most notable is the release of Take That's comeback album, Beautiful World, featuring current #1 single "Patience." The other big challenger for #1 is another boyband of sorts, "classical" singers Il Divo, who release their third album, Siempre. Both of their other albums topped the UK albums chart. Trip-hop group Faithless releases their fifth studio album, To All New Arrivals, which features current single "Bombs."
