UK's Current Top 20 Popular Songs

In honor of the Olympics, I’m compiling lists of the top 20 hit songs around the world. Yesterday was Japan; today is the UK. Here is the UK Top 20 list for the week ending August 17, 2008. I found the list at: www.bbc.co.uk.

For some of the songs, the people who own the rights to the song do not necessarily want you to embed the videos. In that case, I have used a fan video, and included a link to the music video below.

Here are the songs:

Life on Mars

A David Bowie tune.

Barbra Streisand & Neil Diamond sang this as a duet.

Wuthering Heights

Kate Bush song.

Dr. Who on YouTube

When can I have the feeling that I am the last person to find something out, and not be mad about it? Well, it's when I found out that Dr. Who is on YouTube! I missed Friday's episode on the SciFi Channel, so I looked on their site to see if I could watch it there. Nope. It's not on Hulu either. The episodes are on the BBC, but you have to be in the UK to watch it. Fortunately, I did find it on YouTube. And, it turns out that the UK is ahead of the US in the episodes, so I was able to watch the end of the the two part episode, too!
