''Its not hard to fall...'' Well girls, you are doing a very good job at it. To be fair, I think it was always a poor winner single song choice, so I can see why its not doing well, along with weak ratings. I think they will do well with their own music though, they are very marketable.

"Do You Feel What I Feel?" is easily the best thing of this era, shame it's done so poorly although it could still outsell "Take A Chance On Me" if it sticks around a bit given how high sales are atm.

 

"Cannonball" is actually quite good, probably the first X Factor winner's single that doesn't sound completely sexless (which is impressive, given "Hallelujah" is a song about sex).

 

And it shits all over "Wherever You Are". I'd have raged if it had missed #1 because of this.

Wherever You Are shifting about another 25k physicals then seeing as it died off on downloads ages ago :lol:

 

Still loving this, possibly the only person in the country that still does but there we go...

I'm greatly relieved this hasn't just stayed at #1 for several weeks like some people (including myself at one point) were predicting but it's still too high for my liking.

People were saying that campaign songs make a mockery of the chart. Just look at this, 550k first week, now its only at 133 on itunes. This is its last week in the top 40 I think.

 

I really wish everyone who went to purchase tracks like this would find a way to donate money to the cause directly instead.

 

They are spending £1.99 on the physical sale and the charity only gets something like 50p

Fantastic to see "Wherever You Are" not completely dropping like a stone.

Bit of an over-generalistation!

 

I bought the song because I love it, nothing more and nothing less. I know Buzzjack hate it in general but some people genuinely DO like the song, and not just the cause.

Its not a bad song though like alot of charity tracks plus it is sung with feeling and not a cover. As these things go, its not bad.

Rihanna said on Twitter that she's the baby's "aunt". I somehow don't think Beyonce will approve of that. :lol:

 

Lego House. :wub:

It's even held on to its Wednesday update position (as have Little Mix).

Fair point. However I think the ratio of people who bought it because they genuinely like it is greatly outweighed by those who just did it for the cause.
