There have been so many amazing comebacks this year - Nell Furtado, Christina Aguilera, Justin Timberlake, Beyonce,Pink, Scissor Sisters, basically the biggest stars of this year have been big artists who have been away on a break, anyone else agree?

Well I guess so I mean Snow Patrol and The Killers are / going to have good comebacks as well but a lot of new artists have also emerged like Arctic Monkeys, James Morrison, The Kooks etc etc. I guess every year theres a mix between new acts and bigger acts releasing new material I mean look at last year; both Coldplay, Robbie and Mariah had huge comebacks and new artists like Hard-FI and James Blunt emerged.

dont think it's really a break, more the usual cycle of album releases.

 

suppose that scritti pollitti man who was one of the mercury people this year and it said had spent the last seven years in the pub with his hip hop albums.

 

now think that could be called a comeback

Thats exactly right Tigerboy. ^_^

 

Who does everyone think has had the biggest comeback of the year?. If I was asked this question two weeks ago i'd have said JT as he's just had a #1 single and his album looked a sure fire #1 but now I reckon it'll be the SS. They've already spent 2 weeks at #1 and there album looks like a dead cert for #1 next year.

Nelly Furtado in my opinion

 

She was the one who really dissapeared during that period where nothing was released, we were still hearing some sort of stuff from JT, Christina and so...

 

Plus her whole approach to music has changed, so in my opinion hers is the greatest comeback

Coldplay, Robbie and Mariah

 

those are in that cat that will always be there with U2, Bruce Springsteen, Madonna, Kylie, a number of american rappers. (in film terms,) the tentpoll artists

 

with all the rest below with success depending on the ideas or radio programmers and whether journos have something new to write about them and a new slant

Well I mean Nelly had a huge comeback single in Maneater, and if it hadn't been deleted then it would have become a huge seller of the year. I mean personally I think her new sound is a lot better than her old one but in terms of album sales it hasn't done brilliantly so far where as JT's, Christina's have.

Yeah there has been a lot of comebacks this year. The singles have been really cracking, but barring a few tracks from various albums, the albums have been terrible I think. Not including Christina of course because Back To Basics is a masterpiece. :wub:

Nelly has had best comeback! Album is only a few copies from 2 Million WW, it already has beaten Folkore

 

Whoa Nelly Sold 6 Million, i hope Loose outsells WN :D :wub:

Christinas album hasnt sold that well has it..

 

I mean, its dropping down the chart like hotpies..Whereas nelly is up and down

Nellys has been top 10 for 4 weeks i think now! Steady sales :wub:

Christinas album hasnt sold that well has it..

Nelly's album dropped quite a bit after Maneater but climbed again when the promotion for Promiscuous started. I have no doubt that when Hurt is released it will go straight back up. ^_^

oh no question, i think christina will top album charts again in the next few weeks! :D

oh no question, i think christina will top album charts again in the next few weeks! :D

When Hurt is released I think she will at LEAST climb back into the Top3. ^_^

^ Exactly. Really, you need atleast a 5 year break between albums for it to be classed as a comeback. All of these artists are just "the next album" :|
nellys last album was 2003 so its three years, and she has new sound, so she kinda has returned, but with a new sound :D

Edited by :Ryan:

I prefered Nelly with her Folklore stuff by far, but I'm glad she's getting the success she deserved with ehr last album, with this one.
