Can you believe that it's been a year since I first started this blog?! Well, yes, I guess you can. Hm. It's been a long year for me, and at one point I've almost decided to abandon everything, but whenever I hear a spectacular song, the urge to share it is instantly present. WHICH BRINGS US TO TODAY, and clearly I'm alive and able to type out blog posts and OH MY GOD I CAN'T CONTAIN MYSELF ANY LONGER I GOT POP FROM THE BLOCK ITS OWN DOMAIN!

UK CHART TIME! The guys at Roll Deep kick Diana Vickers off the top spot with a new entry, Good Times, and Once slips to #4. Plan B rises to #3 with She Said, and Usher is a non-mover at #2 with OMG. Alexandra Burke enters the chart at #34 with All Night Long, and its video has reportedly been banned from MTV.

On the albums chart, Plan B is looking good at #1, preventing Usher to make a top debut for Raymond V Raymond. The Glee cast also makes their debut at #4 with The Power of Madonna, and Bullet for My Valentine follows with Fever.

Here is your top ten this week:

1. (new) Good Times by Roll Deep
2. (• 2) OMG by Usher
3. (+ 4) She Said by Plan B
4. (- 1) Once by Diana Vickers
5. (- 3) Until You Were Gone by Chipmunk feat. Esmée Denters
6. (• 6) I Need You Tonight by Professor Green feat. Ed Drewett
7. (- 2) This Ain't A Love Song by Scouting For Girls
8. (• 8) Carry Out by Timbaland feat. Justin Timberlake
9. (- 7) Acapella by Kelis
10. (+ 12) Dirty Picture by Taio Cruz feat. Ke$ha

It's the UK MIDWEEKS! Diana Vickers told Digital Spy she'd be #1 next week, but things aren't looking bright as Once slips down two spots, behind Usher's OMG and a new entry from Roll Deep, Good Times, which is at the tip of the pyramid. Plan B remains strong at #4, while Chip and Esmée slip down two spots to #5. In the albums, however, Usher is set for a #1 UK debut with Raymond VS Raymond, with Plan B's The Defamation of Strickland Banks and Glee's The Power of Madonna trailing behind.

In other news, the gang from Cobra Starship premiered their self-proclaimed "viral video", called Living in the Sky With Diamonds, which is actually pretty good. Check it out here.

Oh, and take a gander at the Alphabeat single sleeve for DJ (I Could Be Dancing), to be released on May 31st. Here's the video for it as well. (It looks amazing, btw)
