April 1, 201015 yr So I'd have no problems playing these tracks on the chart countdown. I would. Happy April Fool's day everyone
April 1, 201015 yr Ireland did this wth their reality tv prgramme youre a star and some of them did very well,im not sure if this story is true or not but from a business point of view it does make total sense.
April 1, 201015 yr Even though this is a joke (I hope) I think they probably will do it sooner or later
April 1, 201015 yr It's not an april fool, this is old news... I've read this on a couple of forums, way back in February.
April 1, 201015 yr I am hoping this is an April Fools. I do watch X Factor and enjoy it, but how would anyone survive the christmas market with this happening. It may give more money to Syco - but other record labels and artists would suffer. I would be happy if they had the performances up to download but it wouldn't chart - like a free download, that would be good But yeah, please be an April Fool
April 1, 201015 yr It's not an april fool, this is old news... I've read this on a couple of forums, way back in February. Really :o
April 1, 201015 yr And to think on the early shows they don't even sing the full song. Only about 1min 30secs. Mind you back in the 50s and early 60s many singles weren't that much longer. I know quite a few that were less than 2 minutes long and even made #1
April 1, 201015 yr Oh god, come September - December the charts will be a nightmare! The charts wouldn't be any worse than having all that GLEE rubbish around so far this year.
April 1, 201015 yr Weekly X-Factor Finalists Recordings To Be Released On Downloads It is not yet clear whether these weekly single releases will be the actual live recordings, or studio recordings made earlier in the week. If they were live recordings it wouldn't be much use as half the time you can't hear the acts because of the stupid audience shouting and screaming.
April 1, 201015 yr The charts wouldn't be any worse than having all that GLEE rubbish around so far this year. Harsh :P
April 1, 201015 yr Hope it's a joke... I am the biggest XF fan EVER, but I wouldn't want them to chart. If it did ever happen, the best perfomances every week would probably get number 1...
April 1, 201015 yr Hope it's a joke... I am the biggest XF fan EVER, but I wouldn't want them to chart. If it did ever happen, the best perfomances every week would probably get number 1... Im starting to think that may not happen. Lets face it, with the abundence of Glee songs in the chart - only Don't Stop Believing has made any real impact. I think what would happen is most of the songs - particulary in the first half half of the live shows won't bother the top 40 with a couple making the the top 40/30 or maybe top 20. It will be the latter half where songs would start charting higher up, but then there wouldn't be as many performances. I think if this happened over the last couple of seasons, then i could see Alexandra's Listen and Joe's Don't Stop Believing that would have made an impact and got into the top 10, i would say that a couple of Jedward performances would have got in there, but then they were never in the top half of voting, so i just can't really imagine if people weren't so willing to vote for them, would they download a song?

April 1, 201015 yr Did this message really need to be that big? :huh: YES Lol ;) I thought everyone should know
April 1, 201015 yr I would be happy if they had the performances up to download but it wouldn't chart - like a free download, that would be good But the only reason they would do it is to get into the charts - that's what the whole show is about. That's why when they've done charity singles and they've (inevitably) got to no.1 they go wild about the fact that they've got to no.1 on the following show - they never talk about raising money for charity. It's just one big gimmick.
April 1, 201015 yr I would be happy if they had the performances up to download but it wouldn't chart - like a free download, that would be good That could be possible, but it wouldn't be a free download - they'd want to get as much money out of it as possible -_-
April 1, 201015 yr I think its April Fools guys :lol: would be interesting if it ever did happen, it would give us a hint of whos popular lets wait for TIP to confirm it first as he started the thread Edited April 1, 201015 yr by chart wizard
