TWO MONTHS FOR BRIANIE AND A MONTH FOR BILLY AT TOP OF CHARTS
Brianie, the teenager who has only released two singles in her very short career to date, hangs on to the British number one position for an 8th week with "Daddy's School" while Billy Yates makes it a month atop the main and independent lists with his ballad "That's Why I Run".
Biggest movers are from Justin Lee Wilson and Dean Johnson who debut inside the main Top 20 this week but it's a pretty static chart as is usual when things level out prior to the influx of new songs over the next couple of weeks onto the market place.
The brand new official Hotdisc Chart show, presented by Jackie Storrar, is available from our home page and goes to air on CMR Nashville Radio every Saturday morning at 10am as part of her "Country Cafe" programme.
