“SOS please someone help me. It’s not healthy for me to feel this way” about a pop song. But that’s just how I feel about Rihanna’s SOS, one of the true starmaking tracks of the decade. Which of course means it’s probably going to be beat by a drippy ballad from Shayne Ward off of that X Factor. So the 2000s charts go. Do Rihanna and Shayne Ward have what it takes to knock Gnarls Barkley off the top, or will it be the job of Gorillaz, Infernal, Fall Out Boy, Hard-Fi or Jamie Foxx. Find out as we deep dive into another week on the 2006 charts. Which pop stars has MULTIPLE family members in prison for murder? Which Danish band is basically forced into doing an England World Cup song? And which singer had to present a TV show with Holly Willoughby where every presenter had to be barefoot.

This week on our look at the music that came out this week in 2006, we’re going literally from the sublime to ridiculous, in a chart that takes us from one of the most emotional songs ever written in U2’s One’s to one of the stupidest tracks ever, D4L’s Laffy Taffy. In between, we get Franz Ferdinand singing about Jesus, Morrissey discussing losing his virginity, Michael Jackson terrified by the idea of a woman’s sexuality and The Zutons’ ode to keeping women locked in your basement (do not try this at home, kids).In short, another typically weird look into the pop music of the 2000s.
