Billy Joel enters the FAB Chart this week at No.20 with "She's Always a Woman". Probably the first time this year that the FAB Chart has agreed with the 'official' chart on something.

In at No.19 is Jimmy James (& the Vagabonds) with "Looks Like Love is here to Stay". I've met Jimmy and he's a really nice guy. This song lives up to the standard of some of his earlier releases.

Reina Del Cid comes with "Mr Pinata" at No.18. She's a very fresh sounding singer/songwriter who made her name through Youtube. When I listen to some of the routine stuff churned out en mass I think the music world has somehow lost it's way. So much original talent overlooked in favour of manufactured pap.

The highest new entry is at No.16. I've never heard of Aequitas before but this song "Realize the Real Lies" is very well crafted and enjoyable.

She and Him make it to No.1 with "In The Sun", and Dan and Dan reach No.2 with "The Daily Mail song".

Is it really 34 years since the Chanter Sisters recorded Sideshow? Wow how time flies! I still have the 45.

Best song in this Top 20 is John Otway.
