Comments

Kid Rock hits the top this week on the UK pop singles chart. It is a distinction that may not be matched at home in the US due to the face that Kid Rock's music is not available for digital sales in the US. New girl group Saturdays roar on to the chart at #8 with their first single. Katy Perry is looking to match her chart-topping success at home in the US as "I Kissed a Girl" opens at #4.

Comments

Over 16 weeks after its initial release, Abba rides back to the top of the chart with their Gold greatest hits collection. The box office success of the musical film Mamma Mia! is generating a renewed interest in Abba. Kid Rock's "All Summer Long" helps propel his 9 month old album Rock 'n Roll Jesus into the top 5.
