This song is unavoidable whenever I go out anywhere in America. Whenever that happens, I always make a point of apologizing on behalf of all of the United Kingdom for the monstrosity that is Taio Cruz.

The quality rises although it's still quite low. I enjoy Dynamite but it's just one of those millions of similar sounding songs of the moment.

I like this now. It has grown on me.

 

Still probably his worst single. Except maybe I Just Wanna Know. That wasn't very good.

He was so much better before he came such a mainstream success.

 

'Moving On', 'I Can Be', 'I Just Wanna Know' and 'Come On Girl' were all fantastic. :(

Though Tennessee's Kings of Leon are a rock band from the south, that doesn't mean they're a Southern Rock band. The Followill brothers Caleb, Jared, and Nathan (along with their cousin Matthew) play a straight-ahead, hard-driving brand of rock & roll that owes more to Crazy Horse and the Rolling Stones than it does to Molly Hatchet. Their debut album, 2003's YOUTH & YOUNG MANHOOD showed them to be an earthier equivalent to garage-rock contemporaries like the White Stripes and the Strokes. - HMV

Radioactive has charted so low :( Although I guess it's much better a position than was expected after its slow start. And at least they have a 3rd top 10 single, and their album will easily go #1 :D
This is probably Enrique's best song, actually OK this!

I wouldn't go that far... 'Addicted', 'Hero', 'Dirty Dancer' and the introduction to 'Takin' Back My Love' (the RedOne/Ciara shout-out) are Enrique's best.

Dear Reggie. Two points.

1) Only By the Night is 2 years old. That is too soon to call it a 'classic' album. 15 years is normally the time frame before you can apply that tag.

2) Never, EVER, play Craig David on Radio 1 unless you have no choice in the matter.

I keep on forgetting that Sex On Fire has now passed the million :wub:
album is back in top 40 #37 (47). :)

 

:yahoo:

 

Thank God. I'm glad that it's re-entered. Anyone got the chart run?

This Kings of Leon track is not a strong comeback. :(

Oh come on! The USA have many more reasons to apologise the world in terms of music. Taio is sadly following in the footsteps of these terrible mainstream American acts at the moment.

 

Kings Of Leon far beyond the triumphs of Sex On Fire - it was predictable, the song is so average.

I'd normally agree with this by OBTN was just such an enormous album, I think it's safe to call it a classic already.

Great to see KOL top 10- and brilliant to see rock in the top 10 at last :wub: :wub:

 

this of course isnt as good as Sex on Fire or Use Somebody, but its still a dam good tune :wub:
