I hope not either. Boo at “Shotgun” being played

Shotgun, time for a mute! Was a decent summer tune but definitely not listening to it now lmao

Relieved to see Billie Eilish has climbed, any chance it's enough to avoid ACR next week?

Biography

 

Slade are an English glam rock band from Wolverhampton/Walsall. They rose to prominence during the early 1970s with 17 consecutive top 20 hits and six number ones. The British Hit Singles & Albums names them as the most successful British group of the 1970s based on sales of singles. They were the first act to have three singles enter the charts at number one; all six of the band's chart-toppers were penned by Noddy Holder and Jim Lea. As of 2006, total UK sales stand at 6,520,171, and their best-selling single, "Merry Xmas Everybody", has sold in excess of one million copies.

 

Following an unsuccessful move to the United States in 1975, Slade's popularity waned but was unexpectedly revived in 1980 when they were last-minute replacements for Ozzy Osbourne at the Reading Rock Festival. The band later acknowledged this to have been one of the highlights of their career. The original line up split in 1992 but the band reformed later in the year as Slade II. The band has continued, with a number of line-up changes, to the present day. They have now shortened the group name back to Slade.

 

A number of diverse artists have cited Slade as an influence, including alternative rock icons Nirvana and the Smashing Pumpkins, punk pioneers the Ramones, Sex Pistols, the Undertones, the Runaways and the Clash, glam metal bands Kiss, Mötley Crüe, Poison, Def Leppard, heavy metal bands Twisted Sister & Quiet Riot and pop-rock stalwarts the Replacements, Cheap Trick.

 

The Illustrated Encyclopaedia of Music tells of Holder's powerful vocals, guitarist Dave Hill's equally arresting dress sense and the deliberate misspelling of their song titles for which they became well known.

ARE YOU HANGING UP YOUR STOCKING ON YOUR WALL? :cheer:
Aah, 20 years since the last Spice Girls number one at Christmas. That chart is here in full on Mixcloud if you want some festive listening later: https://www.mixcloud.com/1869300/uk-top-40-...-december-1998/

 

I still can't quite believe that Denise Van Outen and Johnny Vaughan did the Kylie and Jason parody. I know it was for Children In Need but it was totally bizarre. Strange to think though that Jane McDonald (who was new at #10) has actually had a resurgence in popularity this year!

 

Speaking of Kylie & Jason, let's look back at a classic 1988 Xmas battle between them & Cliff Richard.

 

WK Ending 31 December 1988:

 

PO: LW:

1. (1) Cliff Richard... Mistletoe and wine... 213,000

2. (-) Kylie Minogue and Jason Donovan... Especially for you... 187,000

3. (3) Erasure... Crackers International (EP)... 78,000

4. (4) Angry Anderson... Suddenly... 75,000

5. (7) Status Quo... Burning Bridges... 54,000

6. (5) Inner City... Good Life... 45,000

7. (13) Neneh Cherry... Buffalo Stance... 41,000

8. (6) Bros... Cat among the pigeons/Silent night... 39,000

9. (15) The Four Tops... loco in Acapulco... 37,000

10. ( 8) Phil Collins... Two Hearts... 32,000

 

Here is the sales between the two over the weeks:

 

Mistletoe and Wine........

It was the 32nd best seller of 1989 with 289,000 copies sold and the 21st best seller of the 80s with 844,000 copies sold.

ACR hasn't exactly kept the Christmas songs at bay has it? :lol:

 

Wizzard >>>>>>>, but it's still great to hear Slade in the top 40 again.

This was also the week Holler went out the charts in 2000 :kink: LM's Forever era is devoid of drama and personality, but it is still their Forever era.

IT'S CHRISTMAAAAAAAAAAAS

 

I love how Slade still 'tour' but it's just the drummer and guitarist from the famous lineup now :P

Biography

 

Sir James Paul McCartney, MBE (born 18 June 1942) is an English singer-songwriter, multi-instrumentalist, and composer. With John Lennon, George Harrison, and Ringo Starr, he gained worldwide fame with the rock band the Beatles, the most popular and influential group in the history of pop music. His songwriting partnership with Lennon is the most celebrated of the post-war era. After the band's break-up, he pursued a solo career and formed the band Wings with his first wife, Linda, and Denny Laine.

 

McCartney has been recognised as one of the most successful composers and performers of all time. More than 2,200 artists have covered his Beatles song "Yesterday", more than any other copyrighted song in history. Wings' 1977 release "Mull of Kintyre" is one of the all-time best-selling singles in the UK. A two-time inductee into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame (as a member of the Beatles in 1988, and as a solo artist in 1999), and a 21-time Grammy Award winner, McCartney has written, or co-written, 32 songs that have reached number one on the Billboard Hot 100, and as of 2009 he has 25.5 million RIAA-certified units in the United States. McCartney, Lennon, Harrison and Starr all received The Most Excellent Order of the British Empire (MBE) in 1965, and in 1997, McCartney was knighted for services to music.

 

McCartney has released an extensive catalogue of songs as a solo artist and has composed classical and electronic music. He has taken part in projects to promote international charities related to such subjects as animal rights, seal hunting, land mines, vegetarianism, poverty, and music education. He has married three times and is the father of five children. - Wikipedia
