I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'song' is the definition.
The definition and answer can be both acts as well as being singular nouns.
Maybe they are linked in a way I don't understand?

'new to charts right to go in' is the wordplay.
'new' becomes 'n' (abbreviation as in New Testament NT).
'to charts right' becomes 'e' (I can't justify this - if you can you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'to go' becomes 'try' (both can mean an attempt).
'in' is an insertion indicator.
'e'+'try'='etry'
'n' put within 'etry' is 'ENTRY'.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for entry that I've seen before include "One in competition" , "candidate" , "Door; appearance" , "Lobby" , "Gate" .)

I've seen this clue in The Sun.
