Mika - Grace Kelly

Mika - Love Today

Mika - Happy Ending

 

But I hardly ever buy singles tbh. Before Mika the last single I bought was Leona's 'A Moment Like This'.

singles:

 

real girl and about you now

 

albums:

 

rihanna, mutya, sugababes

looking at my 'best of 2007' etc. playlists on iTunes which go back to 2001, I can estimate that I bought...

 

2001 - 4

2002 - 8

2003 - 2

2004 - 10

2005 - 14

2006 - 14

2007 - 19 (probably 2 more to come - Duran Duran and Maroon 5)

 

 

I must be the only one who's buying more year on year! I think I recognise that they're a dying thing nowadays so want to enjoy their continued existence. Most of my reasons for buying are to have a song I really like in full CD quality without having to get a whole album, I'm collecting the releases of a certain artist or I want the B-sides/remixes. That list doesn't include multiple format buys - I usually will get all of the formats available though, e.g. Darren Hayes' last single 'On The Verge Of Something Wonderful', I bought both CDs and the DVD version. The blip in 2003 was largely because it was, in my opinion, a $h!t year for singles.

 

2007 so far:-

 

27 CD singles (3 from eBay)

4 vinyl singles

8 iTunes downloads (Instead of buying a physical equivalent)

 

By this time last year:-

 

33 CD singles (13 from eBay)

10 vinyl singles

11 iTunes downloads (Instead of buying a physical equivalent)

I still buy quite a few! an not embaressed to say so!! about 50+ this year, especialy now HMV have free delivery on them, so you don't have to go all the way out to town to get em!..l.azy I know! :lol: I've got all the number ones from this year (somthin i've been doin for a while)

I still download of Itunes aswell though now an again.

I bought a couple:

 

Remi Nicole - Fed Up

Beyoncé and Shakira - Beautiful Liar

MIA - Jimmy

 

Maybe some others but I can't really remember...

Zeroooo. They're practically non existant nowadays in the US. I think the only one I ever bought in my entire life was (You Drive Me) Crazy by Britney.
Since I live in the U.S. too I don't really get a chance to buy CD singles. There aren't any stores around here that carry them anymore. The last one just went out of business recently. :( I did manage to import the 2 UK singles for 'I Said Never Again (But Here We Are)' by Rachel Stevens though.
Um still quite a few this year, probably about 50...I still love CD singles and own around 400-500 in total I would have thought

Beyonce and Shakira - Beautiful Liar

Kelly Clarkson - Never Again

Ida Corr Vs Fedde Le Grand - Let Me Think About It

 

That's it :lol: I used to buy loads when I was younger. Is still have them hidden away. It's all Steps and S Club Juniors :lol:

I've bought:

 

Mika - Grace Kelly

Mika - Love Today

Mika - Happy Ending

Wouldn't it have been easier to just buy the album? :lol:

im still buying as many, if not more.

Sugababes vs GA - Walk This Way

Mutya Buena - Real Girl CD1+2

Groove Armada Feat. Mutya Buena - Song 4 Mutya CD1+2

Dragonette - Take It Like A Man

Mutya Buena - Just A Little Bit

Sugababes - About You Now CD1+2+7"

Britney Spears - Gimmie More

Sugababes - Overload (EBay)

Sugababes - Round Round (Charity Shop)

Sugababes - Stronger/Angels With Dirty Faces (See Above)

 

Still To Come:

 

Sugababes - Change, Mutya Buena - B Boy Baby at least...

I think I've brought about 8 singles this year. Thats really bad. Last year i probably brought around 30-40 and i think thats my usual number. Though i could be buying more singles towards the end of the year. I'm going out in half an hour to buy Kylie and Darren Hayes so that'll make it to 10 (along with Leona's album)

I've not brought one, and the last one I brought was back in 2005. I can't even remember what it was.

 

As I've said before, why pay up to £4 and risk only liking one song, when you can download that one song for 79p - and since I burn them to CD (as well as stick them on my iPod), there's no risk of me losing them if the hard drive crashes.

Zero.

 

I now only buy downloads singles off of iTunes.

 

Yet I will always buy a physical copy of an album.

2006 - 50

2007 - 14

 

2006 is high because i obviously had to buy all versions of the Nelly Furtado singles :P :lol:

I also bought the limited edition white vinyl of Amy Winehouse - Back To Black, i've only played it once though :lol:

Girls Aloud vs Sugababes - Walk This Way

Girls Aloud - Sexy! No No No... CD2

Avril Lavigne - Girlfriend

Avril Lavigne - When You're Gone

Stefy - Chelsea

Leona Lewis - Bleeding Love
