Of this week’s highlights and lowlights…

Leona Lewis – Better In Time/
Footprints In The Sand
[Spirit]

53 (42) Leona Lewis – Better In Time/Footprints In The Sand

A new single for the X-Factor winner and one that missed out on the No.1 slot.

One Republic: Stop And Stare
[Dreaming Out Loud]

44 (37) One Republic – Stop And Stare

Stop and Bore, morelike. Gordon Bennett, this tedious rubbish never seems to end.

Duffy: Mercy
[Rockferry]

21 (22) Duffy – Mercy

They say she’s the new Dusty Springfield but it certainly doesn’t work for me.

Estelle & Kanye West:
American Boy
[Shine]

17 (13) Estelle feat. Kanye West American Boy

Apparently this first entered at No.72 and dropped out. It wasn’tmissed and I can’t see what the big deal is.

Coldplay: Violet Hill
[Viva La Vida…]

14 (11) Coldplay – Violet Hill

Well, it was free so I downloaded it. Given how their music’s gone in thelast few years, it’s true that you get what you pay for(!)

Sam Sparro: Black & Gold
[Sam Sparro]

9 (6) Sam Sparro – Black & Gold

Funky as hell, this is a wonderful piece of music and the kind of thing that,when it does get released, normally gets overlooked, but here it’s all payingoff in spades.

I’ve never heard of Sam Sparro before, but here’s hoping we hear a lot morefrom him in the near future.

Madonna: 4 Minutes
[Hard Candy]

8 (4) Madonna & Justin – 4 Minutes *4th Week at No.1*

Apparently this first entered at No.72 and dropped out. It wasn’tmissed and I can’t see what the big deal is.

Gabriella Cilmi:
Sweet About Me
[Lessons To Be Learned]

7 (14) Gabriella Cilmi – Sweet About Me

Quite a decent, jaunty little track and one that sounds like an old Motown tune.

The Ting Tings:
That’s Not My Name
[We Started Nothing]

3 (2) The Ting Tings – That’s Not My Name

Very mediocre.

Rihanna: Take A Bow
[Good Girl Gone Bad]

2 (1) Rihanna – Take A Bow

YAWN! What a tedious ballad!

Click here for the video

Mint Royale;
Singin in the Rain
[Pop is…]

1 (28) Mint Royale – Singin in the Rain *1st Week at No.1*

Excellent track, as it was when it was originally released in 2005. It’s afunky remix of the Gene Kelly version of the song, as used in a car advertalso in 2005.

Back then, it only made No.20, but this time it’s reached No.1 as it wasthe track used for the winner of Britain’s Got Talent.
