TRIUMPH FOR CARSMILE: My Chemical Romance at #1!

Erm, a quick scan of the BBC and Ananova (those twin sources of pop knowledge) suggests there is no other news to report really.

I could tell you what eventually went on the "Diamond CD" for work, but it's so boring it has to go under a cut (thanks to all who suggested!):

1. Pink Floyd - Shine On You Crazy Diamond (short version)
2. Shirley Bassey - Diamonds Are Forever
3. Prince - Diamonds And Pearls
4. Solomon Burke - Diamond In Your Mind
5. Vashti Bunyan - Diamond Day
6. The Transplants - Diamonds And Guns
7. The Beatles - Lucy In The Sky With Diamonds
8. Amy Diamond - Diamonds
9. Paul Simon - Diamonds On The Soles Of Her Shoes
10. Johnny Cash and Willie Nelson - Field Of Diamonds
11. Julie London - Diamonds Are A Girl's Best Friend
12. Jet Harris and Tony Meehan - Diamonds

Has anyone heard any good pop music recently?
