This week:

Bryan Adams has been knocked off of #1 after just 1 week at the top spot. In its place is new TMBG download Love Is Eternity, the first of three new entries from them this week, the latter two of which (The World's Address at #4 and Everything Right Is Wrong Again at #9) have dropped in thanks to a re-listen of "Then: the Earlier Years".

Bryan Adams and Boomtown Rats each drop 1 to 2 and 3 respectively; whereas mainstay Aftermath by REM rounds up the top 5.

Also this week, Hot Chocolate climbs to #6, 2 of U2's songs stick around, and Travis, The Police, Pet Shop Boys, Ronnie Milsap, Mac Davis and Dolly Parton stay for one more week. Keane pop back in after several weeks in he list earlier this year, as do Radiohead, and Tony Christie, Julian Lennon and Roger Whittaker all have new entries.

They Might Be Giants: 3
