So, after a bit of a break and consideration about where to go with this blog I have decided to come back and for the most part just concentrate on my reporting of the UK charts.

I made this decision as I realised that these days the charts are mad, and nobody ever knows whats number one because frankly its kinda unimportant now. I also had the weird thing that yesterday, for maybes one of the first times in my life it came to light that i’ve never even heard of the song thats currently number one…well, this will happen no more, you can get your charts right here every week (well maybe!).

One we go…

So, 2007 is over and what did it give us….

We had an interesting celeb Big Brother

The demise of Britney

A bit of a boring summer Big Brother

A Spice Girls re-union

And a totally boring X-Factor Christmas Number one.

That’s blog stuff…on a more personal level I went to some really good gigs in ‘07, the best of those being Justin Timberlake and Fall Out Boy both excellent live music occasions.

Best tune of the year is probably ‘Miscommunication’ By Timbaland and the film of the year ‘Atonement’. Enough of ‘07 though…here are some things to look forward to in ‘08….

The “Sex & The City” Movie, ‘The Dark Knight’ and of course, the excellent looking ‘Wall-E’ from Pixar.

Music wise, there are rumours of a Michael Jackson UK tour next year and a Madonna/Timbaland/Timberlake album which should be interesting.

Anyway, that’s enough from me, what are you looking forward to????
