Listening to 'Talk That Talk' for a second time now - sounding a lot better than 'Loud' did at first. 'We Found Love' is the standout track at the moment, but 'Where Have You Been', 'Talk That Talk (feat. Jay-Z)' and 'You Da One' are all great album tracks. She'll no doubt release one of the under-rated tracks on the album, I thought 'Cheers (Drink to That)' was garbage at first - but following release came to love it - perhaps 'Cockiness (Love It)'?

 

Hoping Rebecca Ferguson can debut within the T5 - it'd prove how undeserving Matt Cardle's victory was. His T40 chart run was (06-23-xx) so anything better than this is what I'm hoping for.

Christmas update:

 

86. All I Want for Christmas Is You (Original Version) - Mariah Carey

110. Fairytale of New York - The Pogues & Kirsty MacColl

132. Fairytale of New York - Kirsty MacColl & The Pogues

166. Merry Christmas Everyone - Shakin' Stevens

187. I Wish It Could Be Christmas Everyday - Wizzard

220. Do They Know It's Christmas? - Band Aid

221. Mistletoe - Justin Bieber

225. Last Christmas (Single Version) - Wham!

242. Merry Christmas Everybody - Slade

248. Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas - Michael Bublé

292. It's Beginning to Look a Lot Like Christmas - Michael Bublé

 

The Pogues finally making some decent progress and still on track to overtake Mariah very shortly. Slade top 300 now :cheer:

 

-x-

 

Regarding Olly/Rihanna, I'd be surprised if Rihanna *doesn't* overtake him now. I'd prefer if Olly stays ahead but I won't mind Rihanna staying at #1 which seems inevitable to me.

She's #7 on today's mids and already falling on iTunes. No chance of top 5. It could do a bit better than Run For Your Life overall but not much. The real thing to watch for Rebecca is her album.

 

But regardless, it doesn't prove at all how 'undeserving' Matt's victory was. From the second live show onwards Matt topped the public vote every single time. Just because people have gone on to be generally more interested in the music of others from the show doesn't mean he didn't deserve to win. If he'd come up from behind on Rebecca then you'd have a point, but he didn't. No one else ever came near his popularity during the show's runtime except Mary Byrne on the first show.

I agree there. I love Rebecca but Matt was my clear favourite (the top 2 were definitely right for me) but his single wasn't well received and people seem to forget that his album isn't exactly flopping. I still wish Rebecca to do well know. The fact that people think Cher or 1D should have won nauseates me.

Yeah Matt dominated last years X Factor in terms of votes and he even won despite being ill for the last 3 weeks. He was a deserved winner based on performances and his album is decent. All it proves is that Run for your life is awful. If he'd released Starlight instead he would have been top 3 IMO. Rebecca played it too safe to deserve the win but she's looking like developing into a tidy artist... Fairtytale is a good song.

I meant on the official chart. They should hopefully be ahead this week but I wouldn't be too surprised if Mariah stays ahead for one more week.

Nooooooooooooooooooo. I want Dermot to congratulate Olly on being number 1 live on the X Factor after his performance. Would be a sweet moment.

Olly will majorly start to trail off due to the weekend effect and no doubt Rihanna will pull the sales gap to at least 5,000 tomorrow, meaning she will end the week at number one.

 

01. Olly Murs - Dance With Me Tonight 100%

02. Rihanna - We Found Love 84.8%

 

22. Rihanna - We Found Love 15.2%

60. Rihanna - We Found Love 6.5%

87. Rihanna - We Found Love 3.7%

02. Olly Murs - Dance With Me Tonight 89.8%

I meant on the official chart. They should hopefully be ahead this week but I wouldn't be too surprised if Mariah stays ahead for one more week.

 

I would be - as the combined sales for two versions in the 110-130 range would be about a third higher than a single entry in the mid 80's

So Rebecca will most probably drop out of the top 10 soon since she is in (at least a mini) freefall.

 

I hope Maroon 5 are at #11 just before Rebecca drops out and not GaGa.

 

MTN doesn't measure up to the greatness of 'Judas', Y&I and TEOG.

I'm really confused! Is Adele's 4th single Rumour has It or Turning Tables? I thought it's Rumour Has It but the music channel's playing a video of Turning Tables! :unsure: :unsure:
