Biography

Paloma Faith (born Paloma Faith Blomfield; 21 July 1981) is an English singer-songwriter and actress, known for her unique, retro and eccentric style. In 2009, she released her debut album Do You Want the Truth or Something Beautiful?, which was certified double Platinum in the United Kingdom. The album spawned two top 20 hits in the UK: "Stone Cold Sober" and "New York". In May 2012, Faith released her second studio album, Fall to Grace, which reached number two on the UK Albums Chart and has since been certified double-platinum in the UK. The first single, "Picking Up the Pieces", became Faith's highest charting single to date and first top ten in the UK. Faith is set to release her third album, A Perfect Contradiction in March 2014. In 2011, Faith was nominated for "British Female Solo Artist" at the BRIT Awards. In 2013, Faith received two nominations for "Best Female" and "Best British Album" at the BRIT Awards. Faith has also made feature film appearances in the 2007 remake St Trinian's, The Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus and Dread. - Wikipedia

Album Discussion Here

Just found out fergalicious never made the top 100 :o I always thought it went top 5

 

I know it made the Downloads Chart but was not enough to reach the singles chart, I think. It was back when download didn't make much of an impact.

Chart Run: 56-61-43-27-20-10-7-6-9-13-12-12-16-21-28-27-24-27-34-24-20-26-25-24-35-36-33

 

Hope you don't mind me pointing this out but at the end of that run, it should be 36-41-43-33, not 36-33 :heehee:

Yay...Paloma made it!!!! :dance:

Just found out fergalicious never made the top 100 :o I always thought it went top 5

 

I believe the U.K. release for that was cancelled. :( what a BOP though *.*

 

This top 100 history has made me realise 'A Little Party Never Killed Nobody' only charted at no.90 :( INJUSTICE. The Great Gatsby soudntrack is largely fab tho. :wub:

'Another brand new entry', yay Paloma bringing the phresh :cheer:

Only Love Can Hurt Like This is still a great song!!!!

YES YES YES YES YES :wub: :wub: :heart: :heart: :cheer: :cheer:

Finally a great Brits boost, only love can hurt like this is so beautiful and amazing, this can stay forever :heart:

 

And I really hope they don't shorten it today like they used to

"Only Love Can Hurt Like This" :wub:

So glad this is back, I didn't think it spent enough time in the top 40 the first time. One of my favourite tracks of 2014!

OLCHLT cut short :drama:

 

YASSS at it being back though, still sounding so fantastic, easily her best track for me.

Surely 'Only Love Can Hurt Like This' would be classified as a re-entry, Clara not a new entry?

 

Sorry but this is a bit too whiny at times from Paloma.

And I really hope they don't shorten it today like they used to

They did.

This chart is basically all re-entries tho. Where are the ones marked as new?

I know it made the Downloads Chart but was not enough to reach the singles chart, I think. It was back when download didn't make much of an impact.

I believe the physical release was cancelled and back then songs without a physical release weren't allowed to chart.

Noel Gallagher didn't make it then? What a pity.

 

Tell me about it :( 'Ballad of the Mighty I' is a tremendous effort, quite Coldplay actually. Was hoping that Graham Norton would've sneaked it in :(
