Gorillaz and Gwen Stefani feat. a dancing car (10 Sep 2005)

On this week's countdown of the 40 biggest selling songs of this week in 2005...BE AFRAID, BE VERY AFRAID: Emo is starting to creep its way onto the charts, with new entries by My Chemical Romance and Funeral for a Friend.That does not mean, however, that we do not have our fair share of pop bangers, with Gwen Stefani giving us a sequel to 'Don't Speak', Shaun Ryder teaming up with Gorillaz (and kicking his heroin addiction through cycling), and Jessica Simpson providing us with one of the year's absolute worst tracks.We're talking about those iconic nuggets of 00s nostalgia, plus new (for 2005) singles from KT Tunstall, Paul McCartney (!), David Gray and Stuart Price, aka Les Rhythmes Digitales.The full list of songs for the week is as follows:Amerie - TouchAkon - Belly Dancer (Bananza)Babyshambles - Fuck ForeverBig Ang feat.
