Oh dear, Sexiback3825. You are banned for making an alias.

lol. You've made me laugh for the first time :lol:

 

Bastille must be at #2 at least officially at this moment in time with the EP still number 1 on the album chart and the song number 3 on the singles chart.

 

Im not surprised Mirrors is still #1 with a healthy lead, that song got hammered on the radio today along with Diamonds and Stay by Rihanna. I heard those songs at least 4 times today at work

Well, what a red letter day.

What station was it?

Maybe Heart have swapped Justin for one of Katy Perry, Olly Murs or Adele who they used to have on a loop before I gave up on Radio. It would be an improvement :)

Yeah, or Capital or Choice.

 

It's probably a Global station, I don't think many other stations would be THAT repetitive. But I don't think Heart would be playing Mirror this early, it's very rare for them to play songs straight away. It could be Capital, but Capital haven't been playing Suit & Tie much (too urban I guess), so I'm not sure how they'll be about Mirror. Or it could be Choice, but I hear Nobodies Business and Pour It Up on that station too, and that station is nowhere near as repetitive as the other two (for obvious reasons).

 

I'd place my bets on Capital, or some local station he gets.

Yeah sounds plausible. I knew Justin was popular but I've been pleasantly surprised how much excitement there is about his return to music, so I hope he does get decent airplay. Having said that I don't like it when they play certain artists non stop like that. It got to a point where I knew exactly what was coming. Tedious and they make you get fed up of songs you didn't actually mind. I watch most of my music on TV now. You see the same people but not quite as often.

Well Mirrors was #1 on the Big Top 40 show yesterday and every presenter on Capital mentions the show in some way so it might be possible for Capital to play Mirrors up to 4 times in a day.

I said in a thread at the beginning of this year that Justin Timberlake would probably flop like Nelly Furtado if he made a comeback, so I'm very happy with his success. Especially with something as un-mainstream as Suit & Tie and Mirror!! I think he chose a good time to make his return though.

 

I agree about radio airplay making you get fed up of songs as well. I'm already at the stage with 2011 songs where I think "Oh, I haven't heard that in a while", but I can't stand to ever listen to Moves Like Jagger or We Found Love ever again. Radio plays songs like that so much because they know a 6 year-old girl and her grandma can both tolerate those songs (=bigger audience and more money for the station). Anything vaguely creative and it won't get played too much usually, only occasionally do you get that magical song like Somebody That I Used to Know that's creative and has that mass appeal.

Agree entirely. It's all so safe. My music taste isn't exactly wild or "out there" but they seem to go for family friendly as you say. Songs that Grandad will dance to at wedding but kids aren't embarrassed about.

 

For me Justin has always had the whole package. He can really sing, really dance and he has lots of charisma. The top British male popstars seem to trade off their "charm" alone and not a lot else. Great to have him back. Was devastated he didn't sing on Jonathan Ross. That appearance did him so much good though. I didn't see one bad comment after on Twitter. Everyone seemed to love him. Excited for the album.

I don't want to be hysteric I'm just reasonable but Pompeii is nut stopping and gained more than 10% in the past 12 hours... and the EP is still number 1 and maybe will be there all week with it's price... and selling a LOT with 5 FULL days left I think we have a NE of number 1 this week and Mirrors will be only 2. Sad for me but... I think it's the truth, congratz anyway :)

Nice comment and you're right but you can't ignore it that IF he would have sang Mirrors he was number 1 for sure this week... that's disappointing but I guess he made more BUZZ about the album and that's fine.

Chill dude. Even if Bastille somehow gets to #1 on the first mid week update the lead that Mirrors has, which is actually pretty big and stable, will claw it back for JT by Sunday.

But now that you've put the idea of Bastille being #1... :w00t: :w00t::w00t: Come on Bastille, knock down JT!

lol. As much as i want Bastille at #1, there's surely no way that's gonna happen? It's still a long way off iTunes' #1, and while the EP certainly helps, i don't think it'll have THAT much effect.

I think you'll win me over this week :) but... let's see on Wednesday... I think who will be number 1 then will win the week.

I have no idea why he didn't sing, would have put it beyond any doubt. Let's hope he does it anyway :)

Yeah... BTW and a little bit off topic.. the length of the album has just revealed - T20/20E...

Added the songs all up. Standard clocks at 70:08, while deluxe is at 79:29. WOW :)

That's a lot of JT! Which I'm all for! I've pre ordered the deluxe so hopefully will get it day of release. I need to lower my expectations as I loved the last album so much, this has a lot to live up to.

That's GREAT news for the album...

Pompeii -just increased another 3% in the past hour... maybe even tomorrow they will take the number 1 spot.. they are not stopping at all, I don't get it :|
