...it transpires that Aly & AJ didn't just fail to make the top 10, they missed the top 20: 'Potential Breakup Song' languishes at No 22, and that's with physical releases. Sadfaces all round. What doomy conclusions can we draw from this? Personally, I think if that song can't be a big hit, nothing of its ilk can, and the UK can officially be declared a pop wilderness.

On the plus side, that nasty Sex Pistols reissue thing is nowhere to be seen.

Here are all the people who've been #1 in the Poptimists last.fm charts in the last 12 months (the # of weeks add up to more than 52, because there are very often ties).

The most listeners an artist has ever racked up is Rihanna, with 17 one week. The least is 6.
