I can remember wondering if WAY would ever get a proper release in the UK when i first heard it. So glad it SMASHED and set fun. up as my favourite band of the year :wub:

 

I remember when I first heard it. Never imagined this success for it at first, although about a month before its UK release I started thinking it would be massive.

 

Dilemma. :cry:

 

I forgot how much of a tune Beat Again was. :lol:

 

Good that Example made the top 40 in the end.

I thought Dilemma was older than just 10 years :lol: I'm pretty sure i remember hearing it when i was much younger than 12.

 

Oh dear @ Example. I love him, but this single is so weak and forgettable.

:rofl: Example's done even worse than Let It Go!!! :lol:

 

By the way, I voted for Dilemma :wub: (why is Bob The Builder winning? :drama:)

Poor Example. It's hardly any worse than Say Nothing, so why it only just reached the Top 40 is beyond me!

Ouch at this. So glad this has flopped on its arse, he was really thinking he was untouchable.

Wow, what a flop for Example. :(

This is the first time I'm hearing this Example song. I don't think it's bad really. It's a shame this and Natural Disaster only peaked at #37.

Ahhh flop. Boo. 15th top 40 hit though woo I guess? And judging by the pre-orders his album could still do okay.

 

This is so much better than 'Say Nothing' :(

Edited November 18, 201213 yr by Bré

Example's flopped worse than Alexandra Burke! :D :cheer:

Why is everybody comparing Example and Alexandra Burke? Is Alex like the thing we all measure "flops" by now?

 

I'm not worried for Example, I'm sure he'll get more hits in the future.

All of Example's recent songs just sound the same, its a shame as I loved Changed The Way You Kiss Me & Midnight Run, but I guess his appeal has just wore off.

How fantastic it is to see Example flopping. You don't slag off Diana Vickers and get away with it. [/ryan741]

Let it Go is much better than Close Enemies, so i'm not suprised it did better. I just hope his album doesn't do a Heartbreak On Hold!
