Romping home again to an easy victory, Stevie Wonder’s “I Just Called To Say I Love You” sold a stellar 222,000 copies over the course of last week, that brings the total to 856,000 copies in 5 weeks with a very real prospect that the song will make the million mark as early as next week. The soundtrack debuts at No 2 this week unable to dislodge “Now 3”.

Whether it gets there before or after George Michael is debatable though, he falls 2-3 with “Careless Whisper” on a sale of 107,000 which brings its total haul to 935,000, almost certainly a million seller next week. It’s also the first time the No 3 track has sold in excess of 100,000 since November 1982 when Tears For Fears sold 136,000 copies of “Mad World”. It’s overtaken by Ray parker Jr who really shifted the units after TOTP this week in the end coming in with 113,000 buyers- It’s hard to imagine that Wonder won’t be at No 1 next week.

Back in 1979 Sister Sledge scored a No 17 hit with “Lost In Music” which this year gets a workover from Nile Rogers whose work with Diana Ross and Duran Duran has proved chart gold over recent years. Of course the original was also a Rogers/ Edwards creation but this version features additional backing vocals from a certain Simon Le Bon and Andy Taylor which might help to account for the top 10 position of this track. The song has already outperformed the original as it arrives 14-7 (39,000) and follows on from the release of “Thinking Of You” which was also from the 1979 album “We Are Family” but wasn’t released until May this year and unexpectedly peaked at No 11, the album is getting a re-issue next week.

Their fourth album is just a fortnight away but Depeche Mode can relax as the second single from it “Master And Servant” becomes their fifth top 10 single, and a second one on the trot. The song of course has run into some controversy with its rather risqué lyrics and S & M sound effects but it has managed to slip pass the BBC censor making onto both Radio 1 and TOTP, perhaps they’ve learned from the Frankie episode? At any rate it is struggling as it nudges 11-9 (34,000).

U2 fly 8-4 (59,000) to score their first Top 5 single which must please them, whilst Miami Sound Machine finally improve 7-6 (46,000) thanks in part to TOTP, and Alphaville improve, but only just, 9-8 (34,000). Meanwhile Black Lace slip 4-5 but hold up saleswise on 49,000,that makes their total 497,000.

40,000 HIGHEST NEW ENTRY


Tears For Fears score a third chart topper this week just about squeaking ahead of George Michael but both may be overhauled next week either by a consistent Cyndi Lauper who spends a third week at #3, or Depeche Mode climbing 5-4 or Ray Parker Jr. moving 8-5 who both benefitted from Top Of The Pops exposure this week, as did current UK number one Stevie Wonder who moves 9-7 for his biggest solo hit yet, matching the #7 peak of 1981's Happy Birthday. He went one better in duet with Paul McCartney in 1982 with Ebony & Ivory reaching #6.

Returning with back to back top ten hits are Sister Sledge moving 12-8, incidentally the peak position of their previous single Thinking Of You.

This week Queen enter at #10 becoming the first act to ever enter the retrochart top ten with two singles from the same album. All three previous singles from the album made the top two here, with their last single It's A Hard Life only just leaving the top ten this week.
