It has :o I always had her in the Beverley Knight camp of 'tries her best but flops every time'

 

Her biggest hit so far is 1980, which went in at Number 14... then her next went in at 15 and it was down down down after that.

 

This is quite shocking that she's doing so well with this song, I thought we weren't ever going to be hearing from her again

I would be impressed with Natasha's quick climb but its completely overshadowed by the incredible and completely unexpected success for Estelle :o

 

I can't think of the last time I was so shocked at a song's success...good song though :)

 

the top 3 is completely British females too! If this happened in the official chart on Sunday surely its a first!?! I can't think of another time homegrown women were doing so well

The Estelle is quite a summery feel good track... I can't see Kanye West being that much a pull for people to D/L... its quite weird ow fast its climbed up the chart...

 

I think it'll be number 1 by sunday now

I think ''American Boy'' will be this years ''Umbrella'' :D

I think ''American Boy'' will be this years ''Umbrella'' :D

Noooooooo please!!!!!!!! :lol:

well Natasha has had no airplay so far, Estelle is even A-listed on Radio 1 for weeks now, so she would have a big advantage over her

I'm so pleased for Estelle. She could be #1 on downloads!

Estelle should definitely make the top 3 this week on downloads alone, probably #1.

 

I didn't know she was British... I just assumed that she was American. :P

 

It's soooo nice and refreshing to see a new pic at the top of the songs chart on iTunes. :D

Oh no!

I just saw an advert for MAdonna ft. Justin Timberlake and it says it's released on iTunes TOMORROW. So the rumours ARE true.

Well that's any chance of American Boy going to #1 shattered then :angry:

Why couldnt Madonna wait another couple of weeks...other people deserve #1s too...

I'm actually genuinely shocked... but pleased, it's refreshing to see something unpredictable happen.

 

I listened to the track earlier to see what the fuss is about and it's not bad, I can see why it's doing well. ^_^

I hate that Estelle trash http://i230.photobucket.com/albums/ee65/elbarto678/huff.jpg

When I first heard the track on the radio, I thought it was a Kanye record with a guest spot from a female artist :lol:, and I remember thinking, "this is a pretty good record for Kanye", so I think Kanye guesting is quite a draw - you certainly remember it. Kinda like Taio Cruz & Luciana.

 

 

Oh, GA released an digital ep?

Madonna's on now, i've just bought it :D

:cry: Jordin :cry:
