Crazy Frog ring tone hits top of UK charts - Stuff.co.nz
Stuff.co.nz reports on Crazy Frog.
More crazy frog news here and more. The best archive for crazy frog ever. Yes. I am not joking.
The Crazy Frog mobile phone ring tone shot straight to the top of the UK singles chart on Sunday – the first time a ring tone has achieved such a feat.
The Official UK Charts Company said Crazy Frog's Axel F, which went on sale as a CD last week, kept Coldplay's new release Speed Of Sound into second place.
For all its popularity, the Crazy Frog has also aroused loathing.
Earlier this year the Advertising Standards Authority received complaints from viewers who not only objected to the frog's visible genitalia but also the frequency of the television spots.
Television adverts that plug the tune feature an animated frog wearing a broad smile singing the distractingly catchy "ding ding dididing...".
At number three in the charts was American hip-hop artist Akon's Lonely down from second place while at number four was "1 Thing" a new release from Amerie.
Cartoon band Gorillaz slipped one place to five with Feel Good Inc, just ahead of last week's number one from Oasis.
The one-time bad boys of Britpop enjoyed only one week in the top slot with Lyla, which was their seventh number one single.
At seven was America's Black Eyed Peas and their Don't Phunk With My Heart and at eight was Gwen Stefani's new entry Holla Back Girl.
At nine was another new entry, Audio Bullys featuring Nancy Sinatra with Shot You Down. Rounding off the top 10 was charity chart hit (Is This The Way To) Amarillo from Tony Christie and Peter Kay.
