COFFEY
& THE MURPHYS STAY PUT AT TOP OF THE
CHARTS
Coffey
Anderson is comfortably Hotdisc Number 1
again for the fourth week with his new single "Bud
Light Beer" with the video to that
song causing great excitement. He
holds off a bunch of songs making
inroads inside the top 5 including
Brenda Burch (4-2) and The Murphys (5-3).
Further
down Australian Troy Kemp continues
to climb 4
places to 7. The Murphys hold firm at 1 in
the British & Irish list for a
third week.

The Hotdisc charts are compiled from DJs and industry professionals' ratings
of songs currently being promoted on the Rush Released CD. They are not airplay charts, as airplay charts cannot
work in Europe as there are no terrestrial country stations in this area. The hundreds of country shows are likely
to play a particular song only twice at most in a three month period, therefore rendering airplay charts insignificant
in Europe. It works well in America where there are plenty of non-stop country stations but it cannot work here.
The Hotdisc charts are therefore put together weekly using ratings supplied
by DJs who give scores to every song on the last three months' editions of Rush Released. The scores are totalled
up and averaged out per week to give an accurate guide to the songs which are being championed by the industry.
The aim is to showcase the songs which the DJs and media people are pinpointing as top quality songs, which is
a very useful exercise, particularly to all our clients and DJs as it is free of politics, hype and rigging and
done on merit!
