Don`t forget if you would like to hear a countdown without lots of chat, and more facts join Jason Scott et moi on Sunday at 4pm on the Superstation thats http://www.thesuperstation.info
January 22, 201015 yr Boyzone's single has done well considering it was only put on HMV on Wednesday, there has been no radio airplay yet either. Its out on the 1st of March not the 8th though. Any idea where there album is on pre-release? Edited January 22, 201015 yr by Time out
January 22, 201015 yr Surprised Gabriella Cilmi's doing so well on pre orders! :o I saw it played on 4music today and it's really really catchy. I actually think this is gonna be a big hit and peak higher than 'Sweet About Me'.
January 22, 201015 yr Oof I hope 'Hard' can make Top 40 come Sunday! :wub: Gutted for Girls Can't Catch. Really thought it'd go Top 10. :(
January 22, 201015 yr Thanks Dave Really hoping that OC is number one for Sunday. As for GCC, they will be lucky to be top 20 :snif: Glad for Erik Hassle second on pre-orders tho :cheer:
January 22, 201015 yr If Pitbull and Rihanna end up top 40 on Sunday we can say goodbye to one of the Glee Cast tracks And I also bought the book by Sarah Waters at #4, that really sounds like a good read
January 22, 201015 yr Author Shame Sub Focus This Could Be Real isn't higher. :( Yeah, it took it`s time getting off the ground on iTunes, and unfortunately the physical single only scrapes into the Physical top 30.
