I don't like giving too much about my chart away when I don't officially post it until tomorrow, but it goes from #8 to #1 in mine just because of the video. Maybe 'cause I've watched it so much. My chart can seem so messed up sometimes, as I listen to the same 5 songs all week, which make up the top 5, and I haven't really listened to the other 20 in my chart, they just gradually get pushed down by higher up new entries. I also have too many debuting at #1, or spending just one week at #1 :(

 

I rarely have debuts at #1, it used to be never, now it happens maybe twice a year at most...and one week #1's in my chart are rare, and if they do happen (a la Kom) they seem to hang around for ages in the top 5 anyway...I love the Telephone video but in MF/ESC season, it's hard to get any normal UK release above these songs! this time last year my top 7 was all MF 2009 entries and then Poker Face was #8 :lol:

The campagin to make it the centrepiece of a future Eurovision themed episode of Glee starts HERE :w00t:

Dear LORD no :o It would have to be Fairytale (Fin), Diva (Rachel), Waterloo (Glee Cast), Hold On Be Strong (Mercedes) and Never Let You Go (Will) as the centrepieces :wub:

Sounds like you've already thoroughly thought this one out :P I reckon Love Shine A Light would make an incredibly powerful Glee Cast song, mind you they've already dipped into Katrina's back catalogue :kink:

Love Shine A Light would also be a great Glee Cast song, but I can't see them missing out ABBA for some reason :heehee:

 

I swear I hadn't thought it out until then :(

Hey, my comments for this week:

 

2. Timoteij - Kom (1) (CR-2-2-1-2) I'm glad it got one week at the top at least :D

5. Lena Meyer-Landrut - Satellite (NEW) (CR-5) Growing on me all the time

21. Salem Al Fakir - Virgin Mary (NEW) (CR-21) I checked out the album, but it didn't strike a chord with me from the previews :(

27. Tom Dice - Me & My Guitar (NEW) (CR-27) Quite nice, but Belarus may have thrown a spanner in the works. Either Belgium or Latvia will miss out now because of the change of song I think

33. Malcolm Lincoln - Siren (NEW) (CR-33) Can't get into this at the moment. Reminds me of Peter Gabriel a bit, so in theory I should like it. It's not bad, I'm just finding it tough to lodge it in my mind, if that makes sense

43. Sugababes - Crash & Burn (NEW) (CR-43) A nice ballad, glad their going to be releasing at least one ballad off this album

50. Safura - Drip Drop (NEW) (CR-50) Could be the winner. I'd be slightly disappointed in it winning, but then I've only ever agreed with one winner since the turn of the century :lol:

Sure :kink:

 

There are so many amazing ESC songs that would fit Glee but it would probably lose a hell of a lot of indie credibility and I'm not entirely sure how it could be worked into the show. European trip?

2. Indeed, but ultimately I prefer Keep On Walking ever so slightly. Can't wait for their album though!

5. Absolutely love this - didn't quite get it on first listen when watching the national final, but with every listen it gets better

21. Shame :( it's definitely an odd album - this is my favourite track besides Keep On Walking

27. I seriously hope it's Latvia then because Belgium need to qualify with this, it's beautiful. Latvia's song is nothing special.

33. I absolutely adore this, have you seen the music video? very odd.

43. Agreed, definitely one of the highlights of a surprisingly good album!

50. Yep, I agree. It's hardly the best song here but to be honest, it's better than three quarters of the songs confirmed so it would be fine by me.

Sure :kink:

European trip would doubtless just be British artist pop, so I'd expect Bleeding Love, Break Your Heart, You're Beautiful, Down etc. -_-

 

Oh, it would lose so much indie credibility. Here's hoping if it ever gets cancelled it goes out in a blaze of Euroglory :kink:

Very true, sad but true :( Europe = London after all. I can really imagine Down working actually.

 

Indeed - it can't last forever once the actors grow up/hype fades (bye Ugly Betty :()

Well, the concept itself doesn't leave much room for more than 2/3 seasons - where do you go after you've (inevitably) won nationals? Internationals? Then what?

 

I can't see much room for plot either...they'll have to reboot a la Skins after 3 seasons, I'm certain.

Depends how it's holding up ratings wise of course. No point rejuvinating a dying brand - plus the originality factor would be gone. I hope it will be huge for about 3 years and go out on a high with a conclusive and triumphant finish, rather than being let to die slowly getting worse and worse with each season, as most US shows seem to.

02 - I hope it's amazing :wub:

27 - I'm inclined to agree. Belgium have not been in the final since 2004, and it's a nice entry. Fingers crossed for them! Latvia have more neighbourly support though :(

33 - I haven't. I tend to steer clear of the preview vids as they always look so cheap :lol: . Will have to remember to check it out though.

43 - I loved the album :D

50 - I'm hoping it'll grow on me in the coming months.

27. I'm not saying most of their 2005-2009 entries were actually worthy of being in the final, and obviously Ishtar was an acquired taste, but seriously - how Je T'Adore missed I really don't know - amazing pop song :drama: I've even heard it on UK radio a few times, which is more than can be said for any other ESC song!

33. That I agree with - the UK's preview videos are always dire...Jade's was good though but the BBC were taking it seriously last year. Josh's one will probably be him dancing outside a swimming pool or something :lol:

33 - I'm expecting just him and some dancers in front of a yellow or purple background :lol:

27. Follow My Heart was immense! Gutting that it didn't make the final :( I guess if it had done though Daz would have done even worse as they were going for a similar audience.

33. Sounds about right :lol: Scooch had the best UK promo video of the last 10 years - cheap but funny!
