This week's Top 40 ... |
Top 40 Sun 24 May 09 Boom Boom Pow - Black Eyed Peas are eclipsed at the top by 'Bonkers', Dizzee Rascal & Armand Van Helden's awesome new floorfiller The legendary 'Nils Points' Norway have taught us a lesson or two on Eurovision. While Jade's rather limp Lloyd-Weller ballad 'It's My Turn' crawls in at 25 Norways winner 'Fairytale' by former Russian, Minsk born Alexander Rybak charges in at 10. 'Fairytale' and in fact his entire debut album is written by Rybak himself. So there you go, a singer songwriter wins the Eurovision Song Contest for the first time, with a song inspired by Norwegian folk music, it get's a record points haul of 387 and it's a UK top ten smash the following week. Nils points huh?
