These singles were in the top 10 last week:

CHARTIFACTS OF THE TOP 10:
==========================

(1)---> The biggest selling single this week in Australia, for the fourth
consecutive week, is AMIGOS PARA SIEMPRE (FRIENDS FOR LIFE), from
Jose Carreras and Sarah Brightman.  Countdown shows like TAKE 40
AUSTRALIA still refuse to play this song in their countdowns, while
at least music-video shows, like RAGE, VIDEO HITS and VIDEO SMASH
HITS are playing it.  Jose Carrera's album, FRIENDS FOR LIFE, which
features this single, was at number 2 last week on the albums chart.

(2)---> Bobby Brown moves up one spot to number 2, with the
single, HUMPIN' AROUND.   This single is already top 10 in the
U.S. and looks like it will reach number one over here.
HUMPIN' AROUND is the first single from Bobby Brown's latest
album, called BOBBY.

(4)---> Britain's K.W.S. spent over a month at number 2, waiting
to get to number one like they did back home.  However, they
slip back 2 spots to number 4, with their version of PLEASE DON'T
GO.  PLEASE DON'T GO actually went to number 1 in N.S.W. a couple of
weeks back.

(6)---> EVERYTHING'S ALRIGHT, by Kate Ceberano, John Farnham and
Jon Stevens moves up one more spot to number 6 this week, while
last week on the albums chart, the soundtrack to JESUS CHRIST
SUPERSTAR (which features this single), was at numbe one.
This means that the biggest selling album in Australia
at the moment is Australian - in the U.K. the same has happened
also.  The biggest selling album in the UK this week is from
Kylie Minogue.  Her "GREATEST HITS" album debuted at number one
in the UK, in only its first week of release over there!  Well
done, Kylie!

(8)---> Our only new entry into the top 10 this week comes
from an American artist who goes by the name of Sir Mix-A-Lot.
BABY GOT BACK moves up 4 places to come in at number 8 this week.

(9)---> For the third week in a row, Mariah Carey is at number 9 with
her version of the Jackson Five's, I'LL BE THERE.  This single
has been the biggest single in the U.S. this year, notching
up over a month at number one over there.  I'LL BE THERE is lifted
off the MTV UNPLUGGED E.P. that Mariah recorded live on American
MTV.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------
NOTE:  Again technical difficulties mean that I can't bring you the top
       10 Oz albums, or the top 10 from the U.S. and the U.K.  So,
       here is the rest of the Oz top 60 singles, as a substitute.
