Spice Girls go Gold in a fourth week at Number 1

The Spice Girls celebrate a fourth week at Number 1 with their hit Who Do You Think You Are. The song is the girls’ fourth chart-topper following Wannabe, Say You’ll Be There and 2 Become 1. Their single has scored 40,000 points, certifying the single Gold. Texas challenges the girls’ reign with Say What You Want, which is becoming an international hit for the Scottish group. Texas now enter their third consecutive week at Number 2. The song with the most weeks at Number 2 without reaching Number 1 is Somebody Else’s Lover by Total Touch, which spent four weeks in the second place without crowning the list.

Savage Garden scores their first Top 10-entry with I Want You. The Australian pop duo, consisting of Darren Hayes and Daniel Jones, are becoming a massive success. In May 1996, their debut single I Want You was released in Australia alongside their debut album ‘Savage Garden’. Both the single and the album went on to be best-sellers. I Want You is now being released outside of Australia as well. Savage Garden is one of the numerous Australian cross-over acts on this list, following Gina G, Kylie Minogue and Nick Cave. Savage Garden reach Number 9 this week.

Az Yet scores the highest debut of the week. The American R&B-act has not entered the list before, making Hard to Say I’m Sorry their debut single. The song is produced by Babyface, who is considered a legend in the music industry. The hit features Peter Cetera, ex-member of the hit band Chicago. The hit Hard to Say I’m Sorry enters at Number 17 this week.
