Onwards on my pointless journey through UK number ones on the day of Doctor Who episodes. This week we are heading to Matt Smith and series 5 and 6.
3rd April 2010
The Eleventh Hour
Telephone
Lady Gaga Ft. Beyonce
A new Doctor, a slightly different direction, but Gaga sticks to catchy pop tunes, and I'm not complaining about either.
10th April 2010
The Beast Below
This Ain't a Love Song
Scouting for Girls
Whatever happened to Scouting for Girls? They had a moment in time where they were a bloody big deal.
17th April 2010
Victory of the Daleks
This Ain't a Love Song
Scouting for Girls
Scouting for Daleks with a Jammy Dodger?
24th April 2010
The Time of Angels
OMG
Usher Ft. will.i.am
OMG the Weeping Angels are back!
1st May 2010
Flesh and Stone
Once
Diana Vickers
Who the ruddy hell is this? A quick search tells me what I feared - another X Factor act. Flesh and Stone was great, Once by Diana Vickers not so much.
8th May 2010
The Vampires of Venice
Good Times
Roll Deep
How can you not enjoy this tune? I am sure I was on the dancefloor more than a few times when this came on.
15th May 2010
Amy's Choice
Good Times
Roll Deep
Have we got another long run at the top starting here? It does have those summer vibes.
22nd May 2010
The Hungry Earth
Good Times
Roll Deep
The Hungry Earth was a pretty bland episode, not in keeping with a summer vibe earworm.
29th May 2010
Cold Blood
Nothin’ on You
B.o.B Ft. Bruno Mars
A more mellow affair. A slow down in pace in Doctor Who and the charts.
5th June 2010
Vincent and the Doctor
Dirtee Disco
Dizzee Rascal
I only know one Dizzee Rascal song, and this isn't it.
12th June 2010
The Lodger
Gettin’ Over You
David Guetta and Chris Willis Ft. Fergie and LMFAO
Corden is here! Uh-oh!!
19th June 2010
The Pandorica Opens
Shout
Shout for England Ft. Dizzee Rascal and James Corden
Should we have read the signs? Corden was taking over. He will be in your TV's, on your cinema screens, abusing you as you serve food and coming out of your radios in no time, look out everyone!! The Lodger last week, top of the charts the next. The monster was beginning to take shape!
26th June 2010
The Big Bang
Shout
Shout for England Ft. Dizzee Rascal and James Corden
The monster continues to grow - creeping in to every corner of our lives.
25th December 2010
A Christmas Carol
When We Collide
Matt Cardle
Banger x 2!!!!!
23rd April 2011
The Impossible Astronaut
Party Rock Anthem
LMFAO Ft. Lauren Bennett and GoonRock
Oh how I love this episode. Silence didn't fall though as we were all putting our hands in the aiiirrrrrrr!!
30th April 2011
Day of the Moon
Party Rock Anthem
LMFAO Ft. Lauren Bennett and GoonRock
What a time to be alive! All hell was breaking out in Doctor Who and LMFAO were banging out a party classic. Legends were being born here.
7th May 2011
The Curse of the Black Spot
Party Rock Anthem
LMFAO Ft. Lauren Bennett and GoonRock
Girl, don't feel outta place 'cause I, I'm in love with this feeling now,
And I, I, I hope that this will last a while, We should make it last a while...
The crew of the ship could of been singing these words to the Siren as they fell for her.
14th May 2011
The Doctor's Wife
Party Rock Anthem
LMFAO Ft. Lauren Bennett and GoonRock
See above, but the Doctor saying it to the TARDIS. What an episode FYI.
21st May 2011
The Rebel Flesh
The Lazy Song
Bruno Mars
The Rebel Flesh felt a bit lazy compared to the rest of the series up to this point. Maybe Bruno knew that.
28th May 2011
The Almost People
Give Me Everything
Pitbull Ft. Ne-Yo, Afrojack and Nayer
I wonder if Mr Worldwide is well travelled enough to go to a monastery on Earth in the 22nd century?
7th June 2011
A Good Man Goes to War
Give Me Everything
Pitbull Ft. Ne-Yo, Afrojack and Nayer
Excuse me, And I might drink a little more than I should tonight;
And I might take you home with me, if I could tonight;
And, baby, I'ma make you feel so good tonight;
'Cause we might not get tomorrow.
Apart from the drinking this could almost be the Doctor talking to River.
27th August 2011
Let's Kill Hitler
Don't Go
Wretch 32 Ft. Josh Kumra
I am pretty sure my musical knowledge ended in 2009. I do not have a clue what this song is?
3rd September 2011
Night Terrors
Heart Skips a Beat
Olly Murs Ft. Rizzle Kicks
Olly Murs' music really does not do it for me and neither did Night Terrors.
10th September 2011
The Girl Who Waited
Stay Awake
Example
Steady episode and a steady song.
17th September 2011
The God Complex
All About Tonight
Pixie Lott
Another artist who seems to have vanished? Maybe she found her room?
24th September 2011
Closing Time
What Makes You Beautiful
One Direction
Fun song with a fun episode, even with a monster returning - and I'm not talking about the Cybermen.
1st October 2011
The Wedding of River Song
No Regrets
Dappy
I only really know Dappy from his appearances on Never Mind the Buzzcocks. I certainly don't remember this little ditty of his though.
Bonus track for this week is to show James Corden how a football anthem should be done. Take it away New Order...
