The Platinum Chart [Week 300]

Big news this week! Apart from the renewed look of the blog (thanks to odiabo for a huge amount of great ideas, and art - he also contributed for the brand new logo of The Platinum Chart), this week, The Platinum Chart reaches its 300th issue! That means 300 weeks of music, almost 6 years! And to celebrate this huge mark (300 wow...) I'll let you know a bit more about the chart tomorrow, as we'll celebrate those 300 weeks! But you'll see...
Now, this week on the chart... Sophie Ellis-Bextor, The Fray, Kaiser Chiefs and Nelly Furtado join the party, while Amy Winehouse gets half the chart on rehab, Gwen Stefani almost escaped for the top 10, Beyoncé listens 5 positions higher, Fall Out Boy almost get an arms race on the top 5 and U2 gets their window shut loved by Akon. On the Bubbling Under Chart there are 4 new entries but Cascada manages to still hold the top spot for the 7th consecutive week! That's all for today.. Tomorrow we'll get a Platinum party, so don't miss that...
