What's the points of havng a UK 'singles' charts which has been broken by the OCC? Alex Warren's Ordinary had 56,289 'sales' last week but the OCC downgraded it to 28,702 because of ACR, thus allowing S.Carpenter to take the top slot. No wonder the chart is irrelevant.
Itโs with the greatest pleasure weโre delighted to announce that Sir Roger Daltrey CBE has been recognised with a Knighthood in HM The Kingโs Birthday Honours. Itโs richly deserved not just for his remarkable contribution to British music and culture for over half a century, but for the tens of millions of pounds that his relentless fundraising and brilliant live performances have generated for Teenage Cancer Trust among other causes.
Sir Roger is a true inspiration and we salute him and all the other honourees from the worlds of music and the creative arts for enriching our lives with their brilliant human artistry and achievements.
Roger said in a statement: โIt is a wonderful honour for me and especially for Teenage Cancer Trust. I accept this award not only for myself but on behalf of all the unsung heroes who have given their energy towards making the Teenage Cancer Trust the success it has become. The likes of The Who and their fans, Angie Jenkison, Lindsay Hughes, Des Murphy, Rob Ballantine and the late Chris York are some of many who have done so much to elevate the charity, to the point where it now has 28 specialist units in NHS hospitals across the U.K.โ
