Numb/Encore only got to #14 :o

What a travesty!

 

Basically what I thought when I found out. :lol: I thought it would've got #1. Linkin Park were so popular when I was in senior school.

Oh I've become SUCH a fan of Burn It Down recently! The flow is just so divine! Shame it couldn't be a bigger hit but good to see it get a second week.

Though Tennessee's Kings of Leon are a rock band from the south, that doesn't mean they're a Southern Rock band. The Followill brothers Caleb, Jared, and Nathan (along with their cousin Matthew) play a straight-ahead, hard-driving brand of rock & roll that owes more to Crazy Horse and the Rolling Stones than it does to Molly Hatchet. Their debut album, 2003's YOUTH & YOUNG MANHOOD showed them to be an earthier equivalent to garage-rock contemporaries like the White Stripes and the Strokes. - HMV

Use Somebody :wub: Brilliant to see this back in the top 40 again.

 

Feck, I forgot to type up the chart run to this.

Linkin Park's chart history baffles me. They're so overlooked in the UK!
For some reason I thought it was Sex on Fire that was gonna re-enter. Nice surprise that it's US instead.
Always far preferred this to Sex On Fire, what a great song. Is it anywhere near a million yet?
Use Somebody remains the best thing I've heard from Kings Of Leon, so much better than Sex On Fire (which I don't particularly like), lovely to see it back in the top 40, such a good feel with it.
Basically what I thought when I found out. :lol: I thought it would've got #1. Linkin Park were so popular when I was in senior school.

 

It made #1 in Ireland strangely enough. It's so odd to think that in the days of a song entering at #14 and usually plummeting out of the top 10 a couple of weeks later it outsold most of the #1s.

Remember when the UK chart had plent of new music every week instead of oldies and overplayed re-entries?

I much prefer Sex on Fire but this is great too, nice to hear it again.

 

On an unrelated note, Adam shouldn't have won that battle :(

There is this other chart known as the 'album' chart you know :P Where of course a band like that do much better.

"Use Somebody" sounds great now I haven't heard it in a while, wish it had been "On Call" that did so well though.

Agreed. But even so, LP deserved a far better single charts profile.
