UK Singles Charts 26/08/2007 | Kanye West Still Number 1 - Sean Kingston At Number 2

Kanye West proved his song title correct by staying at number 1 for the 2nd week running with ‘Stronger’. Sean Kingston has gone straight in at number 2 with the strangely catchy but otherwise utter crap ‘Beautiful Girls’. Now I know this guy is American, that much is clear from the video, but I know very little else.

I only heard this song for the first time 2 weeks ago, and my initial reaction was to laugh at it’s inanity. Since then it has a grown on me a little bit, but I still think it’s a pile of shite.

The Kaiser Chiefs are in at number 22, quite a poor showing seeing as its probably the best song off second album ‘Yours Truly, Angry Mob’. I always think of the Kaiser Chiefs as a sort of British Indie entry band, for those people who aren’t quite sure about the genre. Get in to the Kaisers and then move on past the mainstream poppiness to some harder stuff such as The Cribs or Arctic Monkeys.

Maximo Park are another band that will surely be disappointed with their latest single’s position in the UK Charts. ‘Girls Who Play Guitars’ has entered at number 33, even though it’s a fantastic single, which I reviewed a month ago.
