July 21, 201015 yr Diana is nothing like Shakira (who is an amazing live performer and does not have a grating voice) sadly the only thing that can save Diana's career is a complete change in her vocals.Some of her songs are really good but even I cannot listen to Once all the way through. Sweetdreams is there any truth to what someone posted on PJ that JLS will be doing a cover with Louise of Just a step from Heaven.

Sweetdreams is there any truth to what someone posted on PJ that JLS will be doing a cover with Louise of Just a step from Heaven. That's ludicrous, she sings how she sings, how can she "change" it? So you're asking her to sacrifice what makes her who she is and blend in with everyone else? When I saw Diana live I was very impressed and thought she was a top class performer, she improved leaps and bounds from her X-Factor days.
July 21, 201015 yr Sweetdreams is there any truth to what someone posted on PJ that JLS will be doing a cover with Louise of Just a step from Heaven. I read that too.. I actually have no idea whether it is true or not, but I find it very random that they would be collaborating with Louise of all people. Maybe it could just be a charity single and not on the album ? I remember them saying in an interview that they have co-written every song on the album except for The Club Is Alive

When I saw Diana live I was very impressed and thought she was a top class performer, she improved leaps and bounds from her X-Factor days. It is not ludicrous at all Diana changes the way she sings often her x-factor performance, Little Voice performances to how she sounds today are totally different.Her voice sounds so much better on You'll never get to Heaven then on Once.She does seem to sound a bit too grating sometimes.It has nothing to do with sounding like everyone else but realistically speaking it is clearly not proving popular to far too many people her rather strangulated tone which seems very unnatural and affected.
July 21, 201015 yr I wasn't denying you that fact :P I just think comparing Vickers to anybody that isn't the Cheeky Girls, Teletubbies, Jedward or some other talentless artist from the bowels of Pop history is very bad. :kink: I know some hate her, but saying shes as good as novelty acts is going too far- even JLS and Justin Bieber are better than those acts (Justin Bieber is marginally better than Jedward), she is far better than that -_-, plus she is a genuine artist- she writes her own songs and genuinely is not a novelty or cheesy act, very different to the usual 'X Factor winner' stereotype and I have respect to her for that Anyway, looks hopeful for Diana and Pendulum, but SFG look in trouble :( Edited July 21, 201015 yr by chart wizard
July 21, 201015 yr I think Katy will climb back to #3 because of the Now! effect. *Fingers crossed* OMFG I thought you meant katy price for a minute then haha. :lol:

I remember them saying in an interview that they have co-written every song on the album except for The Club Is Alive Yeah, that was on the chart show on R1 the other week, and they can't have co-written a cover... I also find it random - Louise of all people. JLS are a popular credible act, they could more or less take their pick of who they want to duet with :unsure:

July 21, 201015 yr Popular - yes. Credible - no! They have support from Jay-Z... I'd say that's pretty credible.
July 21, 201015 yr They have support from Jay-Z... I'd say that's pretty credible. While I respect JayZ an awful lot as a musician, I still don't think that makes JLS credible. We've seen this much hype and success happen with many boybands in the past. There's nothing new here unfortunately. They're not exactly critically acclaimed and they don't really have celebrity/star support for their talent. It's due to their commercial success and the fact that there hasn't been a commercial young boyband in quite a few years.
July 21, 201015 yr Still confident Diana can climb into the Top 30 or at least hold onto her current position - Loads of TV promo planned for the next few days: T4, Loose Women, MTV Sessions, Live At Studio 5, Suck My Pop, Hotdesk, MTV UK and Magic Numbers.
July 21, 201015 yr How often does it happen that the top 10 doesn't contain any new entries or climbers from outside the top 10? (or "How often does it happen that the top 10 stays the same, just in a different order?"). Because it certainly looks like that could happen on Sunday :unsure:
July 21, 201015 yr JUST BOUGHT DIANAS ALBUM :wub: Most people seem to be this week - Just a shame nobody seems to be buying the single though :nocheer:
July 22, 201015 yr Yolanda Be Cool & DCup on track for UK #1 22 July 2010 They might not speak Americano, but Yolanda Be Cool & DCup’s English is looking pretty impressive this week. Based on mid-week UK sales figures, the Sydney dance act’s hit We No Speak Americano is on track for the top spot on next week’s UK Singles Chart. According to their label Central Station, the contagious tune is currently out in front by 7,000 units. The song has been a huge hit worldwide, peaking at #1 in Sweden, Denmark, Ireland, Spain, Netherlands and New Zealand. Here in Australia the song peaked at #4 on the ARIA Singles chart and currently sits at #11.
