For sure the best song in the chart

His album is bombing horribly still. Granted, it reached No. 8 in the US but sold much less than Malice N Wonderland.

 

Yeah. I've listened to some of the album, and I really liked it, but his original fans probably wouldn't like it. Obviously, I wasn't a fan of him since the beginning (since I wasn't born :lol:), so it's not too bad for me, but a lot of his original hip hop fanbase might not want to listen to it, hence less sales. Fans of pop music were never going to buy a Snoop Dogg album anyway.

:o HE SAID THAT ABOUT MY JENNY?! :angry:

 

Yes, and he called her ''everything thats wrong with the music industry''. I also hope J.Lo beats him today, it put me right off him.

Is Tracy Chapman a man?

Chart history (Year peak title):

 

1988 05 Fast Car

2011 04 Fast Car {2011 Download}

 

Are we really doing this? :( Download =/= re-release. Ah well.

The song sounds so out of place in comparison to the rest of the chart. But it's a welcome addition to the chart. It's nice to see than even in the post-download era, songs from years ago can still beat their original peaks.

This stands out vastly after hearing what feels like 35 'club bangers' in a row. I've never even been a particular fan of the song, it's just a relief to hear something different :lol:

another nudge.... -_-

Is Tracy Chapman a man?

 

No :lol:

Fast Car :heart: one of the best songs in the chart :wub: :wub:

 

that guy was quite overrated though, I thought he was nothing special

 

EDIT: Oops, you meant Michael. I agree, he wasnt very good.

Is Tracy Chapman a man?

Ha, I only just realised this the other day after I hadn't really listened to the song much before. Even on the cover it looks like a woman :(. OOPS.

 

Edit: It is a woman?! OOPS. LOL. Sounds so much like a guy though! :o

Is Tracy Chapman a man?

 

She is a woman, although I thought the same when I first heard the song. The lyric 'I've been working as a checkout girl' gives it away.

 

Should be an interesting Reshuffle Chart this week, quite a diverse top ten with excellent songs

It was how it was listed on www.polyhex.com - I presume songs that weren't originally on sale as a download get noted this way.

(23) Starboy Nathan-Diamonds

 

First top 40 record for a guy who charted under the name "Nathan" a couple times in the 2000s

Yes, and he called her ''everything thats wrong with the music industry''. I also hope J.Lo beats him today, it put me right off him.

:o When/Where did he say that?

Is Tracy Chapman a man?

 

post of the week :lol:

 

Tracy is a woman. I wasn't sure either, but its a woman.

 

I was talking about the bloke on Britain's Got Talent who sang it :lol:

 

although it was a man singing when I first heard it too :o she has a deep voice

Is Tracy Chapman a man?

Oh Lawd I hate to admit but that did cross my mind at one point, I think it's a woman with a male voice, I could be wrong.

I better stop before I embarrass myself too

Fair enough. I don't think they did that with Man In The Mirror though?
