Ah September. The sun is back (Back! BACK!) in earnest and we can look ahead to the Autumn release schedule after a somewhat disappointing Summer in terms of chart-friendly bangers and anthems (sure threre's been a few but look at the leaderboard below and you'll notice the dearth so far). Anyway, time to review August's collection of top 40 hits:

- Alesha's comeback single = disappointing. Esp compared to Jamelia's new one
- same viz PSB
- the David Guetta vs Egg is the one from the car advert, Peugot I think - decent electro-bosh, sounds v French innit
- Shapeshifters & Chic could have been great but it fell somewhat flat so I didn't tick it
- I still love The Feeling! But this song is nowhere near as good as "Fill My Little World"
- Orson can go jump off a cliff

I am divided on the Alesha single. It certainly has...energy? It's not weak/insipid-style disappointing. If I pretend it's by Ashlee Simpson I really like it. Thus, just on the good side of Any Good At All.

Still not heard new Jamelia!

I like it enormously, personally.
