TOP40-FACTS
Nummer 1
Bodies - Robbie Williams

Het is Robbie Williams gelukt om op z'n minst gedeeld nummer 1 te worden in de categorie "Langst op #1 in 2009", hij evenaart deze week namelijk de negen weken die Lady Gaga eerder dit jaar al op #1 stond met Poker Face. Volgende week zal moeten uitwijzen of hij het record ook verbetert.

Record of the Week (RW)
Morning After Dark - Timbaland ft. Nelly Furtado & SoShy

Een paar jaar terug was Timbaland niet uit de hitlijsten weg te slaan dankzij verschillende samenwerkingen met andere artiesten. Een daarvan was Nelly Furtado en die samenwerking is blijkbaar goed bevallen, want nu hij met een nieuw album komt neemt Nelly een deel van de vocalen op zich in de eerste single. Die heet Morning After Dark en is de komende week Record of the Week.

I'm Not Alone verlaat de lijst
Al wekenlang was Calvin Harris' I'm Not Alone de langstgenoteerde plaat in de lijst, maar deze week is het afgelopen voor de ex-nummer 1, maar wel pas na 29 weken. Geen verkeerd resultaat en reden om hieronder de vijf langstgenoteerde platen ooit op een rijtje te zetten.
1. Viva La Vida - Coldplay (42wkn)
2. Make You Feel My Love - Adele (29wkn)
2. Life In Technicolor II - Coldplay (29wkn)
2. I'm Not Alone - Calvin Harris (29wkn)
5. Mercy - Duffy (29wkn)

Robbie knalt door de lijst
Robbie Williams zet er goed vaart achter, vorige week kwam hij op #39 binnen met de Record of the Week van afgelopen week, You Know Me. Deze week staat die plaat op #4, een winst van 35 plaatsten, een record, hieronder de drie grootste stijgers ooit.
1. You Know Me - Robbie Williams (+35)
2. LoveGame - Lady Gaga (+31)
3. Get On Your Boots - U2 (+24)
