Something I've noticed: Alexandra is at #1 BEFORE she performs it on the X factor! -- This should silence the people who say "She would never have got to #1 if she hadn't performed it on the x factor".

Totally, even without XFactor she looks set to shift 100K+. I can't wait to see the lead tomorrow afternoon though!

No it won't, she's #1 because she won the X Factor, people will buy it because of that regardless of the song and the zombies go in full swing once when they perform if the hype train is still going. Yes I'm aware Leon Jackson didn't get to #1 last year but the winners always need the X Factor to keep the coal coming into their hype train because they're all about the hype.

 

At least Robbie is still quite high in the singles but we'll see how well the album does worldwide but of course The Sun will only concentrate on the UK.

The reason Leon's first single didn't get to number one is because it was, well, to put it bluntly, crap. You can say I'm wrong and it's just my opinion but why else did it have such dire total sales?

 

Alexandra's first single is good. Yes, it's no "Bleeding Love" but it has massive appeal and truly does have US potential.

I cant believe how alexandra has overtaken chipmunk that quick.

 

Blummin eck!

Are you saying that she only got to number 1 because of the hype that she got from X-Factor? And that it has nothig to do with the fact that people actually LIKE the single??

Im sorry, but that's BULL$h!t!

Yes the hype od the x-Factor has something to do with, but that's part of the bloody promotion. She's got TALENT! That's why she WON the X-Factor and that's why she's NUMBER 1 NOW!!!

 

 

Least Lostprophets made the top 40.

I wish I could watch X Factor but I have no TV at uni :( Would love to weigh out the Robbie/Alexandra performances.

Youtube it is ^_^

He meant that without the X-Factor this decent song would have a decent peak of #5-10 if promoted rightly. But this song is by the X-Factor winner and we see THAT lead...

Oright...!

Whatever tho, she's still number 1. X-factor or no X-Factor! :D

I find 'Bad Boys' to be the best X Factor related single so far. I have liked some of Leona's of course, but this actually does it for me more...

 

I liked Alexandra on the show, but I wasn't remotely interested in her prior to hearing the song.

'Bad Boys' is definetly the best X Factor related single behind 'Bleeding Love' which I doubt anyone from X Factor will top anytime soon.

I agree with you both! ^^

No one can top Bleeding Love. But Bad Boys comes 2nd for me.

After all, Leona And Alex are the best winners.

I agree with the majority over BL & BB being 1st and 2nd.

Alas 'No Promises' is 3rd :( :kink:

I would definitely rate No Promises second - AMAZING song, and by a hottie :kink:

Even though technically 'No Promises' is a cover :lol:

I don't actually mind Shayne Ward. It's not his looks cos he looks like a battered chipmunk, but his music isn't as terrible as some of the $h!t we have to listen to.

^ I agree, I thought he was a fairly decent winner tbh. What ever happened to him?

Completely HOT :o

He's working on his 3rd album, few pushbacks though :(

 

And agreed - super hot :wub:

 

I've actually forgiven him for If That's Ok With You :kink:
