Welcome back to the blog swingers. I'm your host JC JSum.
SwingHoppers hopped their way to the top of the chart last week, can they hang on for a second week?
A whopping ten new songs join the list this week and corona virus fever impacts the chart, so let's get started.
Riff Kitten's, "She'll Make You Lose Your Mind," is the first of the new entries and it enters at 39. Riff Kitten reached the Top 10 last month with, "Swag Rag."
Georgia Gibbs is next up. She comes in with, "Tra La La (James Jive Edit)," landing at number 36.
The James Jive, Eminem and Electric Swing Circus mashup of "Lose Yourself To Bella Belle," is still going strong at number 26.
Parov Stelar's latest banger, "Brass Devil," comes in at 35.
Alex Pangman steps in and stops at 33 with , "I'm All Dressed Up With A Broken Heart."
Corona virus is impacting the world and our chart as well. Two songs titled "Fever" enter this week. Dutty Moonshine Big Band and Crash Party land at 32, and Varrick Frost and Lawrence Lea stop at 22. I'd expect more titles relating to symptoms and illness will become popular in the coming weeks. Even if they aren't related to illness, like Dutty Moonshine Big Band's "Fever."
OB3one comes in at 31 with "Body Swinging." It's the third Top 40 from OB3one's album, Masquerade. "Thievin'" and "Paradiso," both charted from the album last year.
Wolfgang Lohr and Phos Toni team up to bring, "My 20's Woman.". It lands at number 23.
Postmodern Jukebox recently covered "Wannabe," the Spice Girls hit, and it stops at 20.
This week's Big Swinging Shoutout goes to...
...Good Co.
The U.S. based, Electro Swing Band's latest, So Pretty, brings the charm of their live shows to the studio and captures it masterfully. You'll want to gather good company, grab a table, order drinks and kiki the night away with this album. The perfect album for the time you'll be spending indoors.
Top Swinging Entry belongs to Offbeat and Odd Chap. Their clever Swing Hop bopper, "My Gym," debuts at 14.
Little Violet makes a gigantic leap from 36 to 10 with, "Silent Movie (Odd Chap Remix)" to start off the Top 10. Little Violet also holds the number 6 position with, "Limits (Jamie Berry Remix)."
Hanging on in the Top 10 for a seventh week is Caravan Palace's, "Melancolia." It sits at number 9.
Cut Capers drop from 6 to 8 with "Let's Start Again (Odd Chap Remix)."
SwingHoppers fall from the top, to stop at 7 with, "S Gon Give It To Ya."
Stepping away from their upbeat and Pop flavoured sound is 11 Acorn Lane. The very smooth and romantic "Mellow Mouser" jumps from 11 to 5.
Oh My God It's The Church jumps 9 to 4 with, "Where Did You Get Those (Shoes)(Duke Skellington Remix.)"
Juda-Bug climb 5 to 3 with, "Here We Go Again."
OR3O moves from 7 to 2 with, "Help Me."
And MelleeFresh and SpekrFreks step up one position to score their first Number 1 together with the very clubby, "Murder (Extended Mix)." It's MelleeFresh's first chart topper.
As for SpekrFreks this is their second chart topper. Exactly one year ago, SpekrFreks were in the middle of a three week run on top with, "Move On."
