Week of October 3

All three of this week's debut songs feature artists who haven't been on the charts in years. At No. 40, "Somebody to Love Me" is the first hit for Mark Ronson & The Business Intl. Ronson is best known in the United States as producer of Amy Winehouse's breakthrough hit, "You Know I'm No Good." "Somebody to Love Me" features lead vocals from Boy George, making it his first appearance on the charts in almost 15 years; in early 1996, the title track from his CD "Cheapness and Beauty" hit No. 24.

One notch above Ronson is Phil Collins, whose "Going Back" is his first Top 40 appearance since "You'll Be in My Heart" hit No. 25 in 1999. ("Can't Stop Loving You" in 2003 fell during the chart's inactive period.) "Going Back" is the title track of Collins' recently released collection of mostly Motown remakes.

And at No. 35 is "A Brighter Day," the first track from the Doobie Brothers to hit the surveys since 1989. That's when the group had its last Top 10 hit, "The Doctor," which went to No. 2. Like that hit, this one features lead vocals from original Doobie lead singer Tom Johnston; of the songs on their new CD, "World Gone Crazy," only one features vocals from later lead singer Michael McDonald (and that appearance is more of a guest vocal).

At the top of the charts, the Zac Brown Band and guest Alan Jackson move 2-1 with "As She's Walking Away." This marks Jackson's first trip to the top since "Where Were You (When the World Stopped Turning)" in 2002. He came close in 2007 when "A Woman's Love" went to No. 2 for three weeks. The band is hot this week, with their latest CD debuting at the top of the Billboard 200 album charts.
