October 2, 201114 yr After 11 weeks of British #1's reigning the charts, we now have an all non-British top 3 :lol:
October 2, 201114 yr Read an article online, which spoke of 'Iris'. A few interesting facts: 42 weeks in the T100 443, 000 copies sold in the UK thus far Most successful song having not peaked in the T20 ^ Pretty incredible for it to have already sold 'gold' - reckon it'll surpass 600k easily by Christmas - especially as 'Iris' is still at #3 on iTunes, whereas 'Cannonball' dropped massively in it's second week. Is that from Wiki? I saw the sales figure there but didn't include it in my commentary as it seemed rather high.
October 2, 201114 yr I really have no idea at all why this Maroon 5 track is as popular as it is, it just sounds so cringe to me and I can't imagine who it's target audience is.

October 2, 201114 yr "It's a new entry at #3. It sounds weird saying that". YES IT SOUNDS WEIRD REGGIE. COS IT'S WRONG :manson:
October 2, 201114 yr honestly i cant think of a worse number one. i want to go into a recording studio and record a fart to see if i can have the same success with such minimal effort....
October 2, 201114 yr Don't think any track's reached number 1 after holding at 2 for 5 weeks. I remember Kylie and Jason's "Especially For You" held 4 weeks at 2 before climbing to 1.
October 2, 201114 yr "It's a new entry at #3. It sounds weird saying that". YES IT SOUNDS WEIRD REGGIE. COS IT'S WRONG :manson: Exactly. And then, moments after telling us that Iris is #3, idiot Reggie says Dappy has fallen to #3. (He's #4.) He just doesn't know what he's doing.
October 2, 201114 yr I really have no idea at all why this Maroon 5 track is as popular as it is, it just sounds so cringe to me and I can't imagine who it's target audience is. Really? Everybody I know likes it! Rarely, if ever, does everybody in my family appreciate the same song but my sister (Maroon 5 fan) loves it, I love it (Xtina fan) and my Mum loves it despite traditionally having hated both acts, Xtina especially! There must be something about it, it has a lot of get up and dance appeal but without being a dance song or club record, it's very universal I think. honestly i cant think of a worse number one. i want to go into a recording studio and record a fart to see if i can have the same success with such minimal effort.... Don't forget to throw in a swear word for 'hilarious in the club' effect!
October 2, 201114 yr This is certainly the worst no.1 of the century if not ever. And yes I'm considering Westlife and ALL novelty singles when I say that.
October 2, 201114 yr Has any song been at number 2 for as many as 5 weeks below different number 1s each week?
October 2, 201114 yr Don't think any track's reached number 1 after holding at 2 for 5 weeks. I remember Kylie and Jason's "Especially For You" held 4 weeks at 2 before climbing to 1. The first ever No. 2, "You Belong To Me" by Jo Stafford had eight weeks at number 2 (7 consecutive) before hitting the top; You Belong To Me - (19 Weeks) 15/11/1952 -2-5-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-{1}-2-5-5-6-9-11-8-11-12
October 2, 201114 yr Maroon 5 could have decent sales as they've got a boost from XF themselves (and SCD). did it?shows how much i watch shite tv shows like that!! :lol: sak noel is such an end of summer number 1,everyone enjoyed loca people all summer on their holidays and now got it to no1 at the end!!wonder what its sales will be like....i suspect they lost alot of sales through holding it back so long, it was bang in demand about 3 weeks ago!!
October 2, 201114 yr "It's a new entry at #3. It sounds weird saying that". YES IT SOUNDS WEIRD REGGIE. COS IT'S WRONG :manson: What because it's a re-entry? Pedantic.. Hope Maroon 5 go to number 1 next week. 5 weeks at number 2 is bad luck. Last one I can remember being that long was All-4-One in 1994
October 2, 201114 yr Amazing #1. :D It sounds so incredulous. Haters, just revel the crazyness and don't take it seriously, because that's the only way you are ever going to like this song! ^_^
