I'm excited for his album though. I complain about Yeah 3x a lot, but most of his previous album was really good.

 

Yeah, F.A.M.E was a really great album. His P.R team were fantastic in getting his career back on track (the kids in Yeahx3 video, plus how uplifting and cheerful the track was followed by a self empowerment dance anthem then a cute ballad with Justin Bieber), it's a shame 'Look At Me Now' got ignored in the UK but that's been discussed loads of times. :lol:

 

Although The Defamation Of Strickland Banks > any Chris Brown album

Come on Plan B!! I'll be downloading it in the morning.

 

It would be horrid if Chris Brown poorly imitating Michael Jackson to a generic dance beat with uninspired lyrics beats him to #1 imo!

She Ain't You is another song I'm angry about flopping (in the UK). Both Capital and Radio 1 played it aswell, but it got its music video released like 4 months early which might've hurt it a bit. Or maybe people didn't like the song, but we all know the beat at least is very liked with the general public. :lol:

Chris Brown already at #22

I like 'Turn Up The Music' and i'm a big Chris Brown fan, but it doesn't deserve #1 over Plan B.

 

Another generic dance song with dire lyrics ('if you're sexy and you know it put your hands up in the air', 'turn up the music just turn it up loud') complete with yet another Michael Jackson wannabee video over a proper British anthem by a British artist with actual depth to the lyrics that address the London riots and UK government? No way. Plan B has clearly put alot of effort into this campaign (check out the 30 minute speech he did supporting young people on YouTube plus the fact he writes and produces his own material and has a film coming out to support this) and it'd be a shame for him to be beaten by Chris Brown who no doubt recorded the song in one day and took about 10 minutes coming up with the lyrics.

 

Couldn't agree more, it saddens me to see it this high already :( I can only pray that its massively front loaded due to pre-orders

I choose to put all my faith in some crazed Rihanna stan with tech skillz (they exist, apparently!) hacking iTunes and deleting Chris, then hacking it every time he gets re-added and deleting him.

 

Sadly, that's probably the best chance we have of him not hitting the top spot.

Someone fix the time on this website!

WHAT TIME IS IT? My computer tells me it's 2:29 and if it's actually 3:29 I will shoot something.

I think its half past 2 atm, somehow that feels SO much later than half past 1 even if its only an hour :o

Why is 'A Real Hero' so high?! :o Not complaining though. Stunning song.

 

Also hoping Train 'Drops Of Jupiter' (i.e. one of the best songs ever recorded, imo) can re-enter the top 40! It pains me to see this have such a low peak of #10! It's one of those songs (along with 'Mr. Brightside' - which also peaked at number 10) that due to it's "classic" status, seemed much bigger than it's initial run seems to suggest.

 

Pleased 'Mama Knows Best' is decently high too after the brilliant performance of it on The Voice.

3 Nicki Minaj - Starships

4 Gotye feat Kimbra - Somebody That I Used To Know

 

Go Nicki!!! Hopefully the video boost next week will finally get it to #1!

 

Is that the sound of straws being clutched? :P

 

Seriously though, why would Nicki gain significant advantage from the video release, when Katy Perry hasn't from her's?

 

'Call Me Maybe' is going to be massive upon its UK release. To think if the record company hadn't removed the song from iTunes, Carly might have already been top 10 with the song by now. In fact, had the track not been removed it probably would be #1 next week. Complete missed oppotunity (once again) by the record company. :lol:

 

I suspect the propoderence of fakes will force their hand.

ISTM his *legal* team had more to do with that... :rolleyes:
