Well what can be said about this awful novelty number 1? One of many things we can blame the X Factor for. A thankfully short career though. What time is it.....?

Well she left it too long a gap in the UK and then the material wasn't as captivating as Laundry Service. They would recommission the album later to include 'Hips Don't Lie'.

thats true, forgot Hips don't Lie wasn't part of the original version of Oral Fixation 2

Have returned to 'No Tomorrow' quite a bit over the last decade <3. Can never decide if I prefer it to 'Bright Idea' or not - both still sound great.
No Tomorrow still sounds pretty good, not the most amazing song ever, but pretty decent...

I really love No Tomorrow, I never hear it these days but it's really great. Really didn't deserve that lowest weekly sales for a number 1 record.

 

Chico *.* I can't hate this, it's too iconic.

I hope Orson make it next week. Even in the unlikely event they'll get there on the smallest no.1 sales in history, I don't care, I just hope they get there.
overall, 31-40 the best part of the top 40... some great songs, but some terrible ones and the #1 song probably the worst of them all together with Westlife :)

*_*

 

That this even exists is just bizarre. Those lyrics are mad.

 

That aside, I think what this has most definitely proved is that the charts were a whole lot better 10 years ago, so many fantastic tunes in this lot. Thank you chart mods for organising this very well :D

I think Orson were a bit unlucky getting that record for lowest #1 ever... but I think it's more a reflection of the era, CD single sales dying, rather than the quality of the song
