30. NEW> Let Your Love Flow - Bellamy Brothers
Here's a head scratcher at first blush. Bellamy Brothers are an American country band that were popular in the late '70s and '80s. "Let Your Love Flow" was a big crossover hit in 1976--a Hot 100 #1 and even a top 10 hit in the UK. Its sudden reappearance is apparently due to it being used in an ad campaign for Barclays bank. Must be a good ad.
29. 26. Make You Feel My Love - Adele (poor Adele--"Chasing Cars" remains her only major hit")
28. 22. Cookie Jar - Gym Class Heroes
27. 18. When I Grow Up - The Pussycat Dolls
26. 37. 7 Things - Miley Cyrus
It was fully released this week, so #26 may be the highest Miley Cyrus's second UK top 40 single will ever go. "See You Again" hit #11 earlier this year.
25. 30. Use Somebody - Kings of Leon
Fifth week in the top 40 and its CD single release is still a month away. Will be interesting to see if it eventually charts high or if it suffers from early purchases and people buying the album instead (which is a massive hit).
24. 15. Take Back the City - Snow Patrol
23. 16. I Kissed a Girl - Katy Perry
22. 14. Disturbia - Rihanna
21. 13. Miss Independent - Ne-Yo

Homer Howard Bellamy.The Bellamy Brothers became one of the top country acts of the 80s and 90s after beginning their career in pop and soul. The brothers' father played bluegrass music but David Bellamy's first professional job was as keyboard player with the soul band the Accidents in the mid-60s, backing artists including Percy Sledge. The brothers formed the band Jericho in 1968, but disbanded three years later.
