Chig's Choon


Nothing of any interest at all released this week, so I'm changing the rules. Only Avril Lavigne and Atomic Kitten are likely to be sniffing around the top ten as new entries, and I doubt if either of them will get anywhere near troubling Room 5 at the top. So, this week's Chig's Choon is one of last week's new releases:

El Salvador - Athlete
Catchy as the lurgy that's going around our office, and they seem like such a nice bunch of lads too. I fell in love with Athlete at first hearing last Summer, when they very ably supported Mull Historical Society at Shepherd's Bush Empire. They have a bunch of songs which I find impossible to categorise, so we'll just stick with 'catchy' for this one. It's their third single, and appearances on T4 and RI:SE should see this go a bit higher than the other two (#37 and #41).

Pointless prediction: I'll take a wild stab at a career best position of #31.
Actual chart entry position: Well, what do you know? It's straight in at #31. Mystic Chig strikes again!
