Comments
Both the UK and US charts are impacted this week by Apple's big sales of iPods in the Christmas season. All those who received a new digital device as a gift rushed to the Internet to download singles. As a result, Madonna re-entered the top 5 and a bit further down loads of other old singles came rushing back like James Blunt's "You're Beautiful" moving from 42-16, the Sugababes' "Push the Button" from 41-19 and Kelly Clarkson's "Since U Been Gone" from 51-36. The only notable new single is the re-release of Hard-Fi's first single "Cash Machine" which was originally released in limited numbers last January.
