November 25, 201213 yr I wish Cheryl released 'Screw You' before this new GA single. But I do quite like this!! The Olly song just reminds me of Maroon 5.
November 25, 201213 yr Thanks guys for the weekly chat :D See you next week and congrats to Olly and GA! :cheer:
November 25, 201213 yr At least Something New didn't do a Something Kinda Ooooh/Call The Shots and slump to No.3 by Sunday. Their first official #2 since Love Machine in 2004 :o I know it's being labelled as a flop because of the way it has fallen on iTunes but its pretty impressive for a girlband to still be commanding top two singles a decade into their career, no? Are there any other girlbands/female groups with a ten year span between top three hits? I don't think at this stage that Something New will end up as big as Something Kinda Ooooh or Call the Shots though. You're right though. Something New isn't a flop. I feel people had too high expectations for it or are being a bit too dramatic.
November 25, 201213 yr I can imagine 'Beautiful 'Cause You Love Me' is going to be by far their worst performing single.
November 25, 201213 yr Two songs named "Troublemaker" in the top 3 in 2012. And a stunning difference in quality between them. Glad Olly's number 1, I didn't think he could best Heart Skips a Beat but he almost has! I do agree that the chorus of this Girls Aloud song is good, but everything else is horribly disjointed. I think this will be a bit of a flash in the pan really.
November 25, 201213 yr It's been FAR too long since I've heard Girls Aloud on the radio between 6.45 and 7 on a Sunday evening on Radio 1 :wub:
November 25, 201213 yr I almost had a fit when I listened to Something New. *.* One of the best #2s for a long time! :wub: Well done to Olly as well, I quite like Troublemaker, so I'm not too bothered that Something New isn't #1! :D
November 25, 201213 yr Olly's success is insane. :o Did ANYONE predict he'd had four #1's (two being Platinum), two double platinum albums and even a Billboard Hot 100 hit when he was singing 'Superstition' on X-Factor against Joe McElderry? :lol: Edited November 25, 201213 yr by shadow2009
November 25, 201213 yr Brilliant Top 2, brilliant Top 10 in fact if you forget One D. Troublemaker is very Maroon 5 sounding, but it's nevertheless fantastic!

November 25, 201213 yr The Script as BBC's "chart breaker", despite looking lucky to even reach the T40!
November 25, 201213 yr WOOP g'wan Olly! 121,000 shifted as well, that's HUGE! Big well done to Girls Aloud too :)
November 25, 201213 yr So if it wasn't for the CD and Vinyl Girls Aloud would have been at #4 this week. It's a shame Rudimental couldn't get into the top 10.
