Foxy's progress - part 4

'Hold on to the chart' may be a more valid plea soon, as James Fox's single looks set to slip quite badly this Sunday, from #13 to around #26. The hope from Sony was clearly that the single would loiter around the charts for three weeks, falling slowly and then perking up again after its exposure in Istanbul on 15 May. At this rate it will be sliding out of the Top 40 on Sunday 9 May and will need more of a resurrection than a kiss of life. Still, James is on TOTP this Friday, which may arrest the decline slightly...

And there's no need to be too concerned, as James is 'only' the second biggest faller in this week's chart. Marillion are in danger of some kind of record, with the single falling out of the top 30 altogether after only one week at #7. And they're NOT being allowed on TOTP, for some unknown reason. There's no justice in Popworld.
