I can't believe I missed the one newsworthy story that came out of this week's singles chart when writing the Chart Update yesterday, which is that Billie Piper's 1999 pop hit 'Honey To The Bee' reentered at number 17 following a campaign on the Chris Moyles show on Radio 1. He encouraged listeners to buy the track via legit download platforms to prove that it is now possible for back catalogue to chart if enough people download it. Obviously being a genuine fan of both music and comedy I don't listen to the Chris Moyles radio show, so didn't know this, hence I missed the story. Sorry. Still, quite impressive that Moyles now has the power to get any old back catalogue track into the singles chart. If I was you, I wouldn't be dissing his radio show that way, I think you need him on side.
