Gentle piano-led indie popsters whose self-titled debut hit the top spot in the UK album chart in 2008. Musically, Scouting For Girls (the band's name a mildly humorous play on Robert Baden-Powell's 'Scouting For Boys' handbook) are similar to the Ben Folds Five, but lyrically they are closer to the Arctic Monkeys. After building up a large MySpace following (naturally their fans are known as Wolf Cubs), Scouting For Girls signed to Epic. The SCOUTING FOR GIRLS album featured the top ten singles "She's So Lovely" and the witty "Elvis Ain't Dead". - HMV

Scottish trio the Fratellis (not to be confused with the evil gang in Steven Spielberg's GOONIES) seemed to emerge fully formed from the Babyshambles-inspired boho-chic scene that also spawned the Rakes and the Paddingtons. Their debut full-length, COSTELLO MUSIC, mixes the tried-and-true sounds of glam-rock, stripped-down acousticisms, and Class of '77 punk. In time-honoured punk fashion, the three band members all use the surname Fratelli. - HMV

woo, scouting for girls = big drop at last yay

 

I'm liking this week's chart right now, such a good week, I'm liking what's going on lol

 

Are the Fratellis physical??? Cos 23 is a bit shocking if it is

Not a big climb after the physical release :o

 

It looks like physicals don't affect the position that much anymore :o

 

I think the case with both the Zutons and the Fratellis is that they both did quite a bit worse on downloads than they did last week, so it balances out a bit...

Yep...physicals too.

BIG FLOP :lol:

Edited by CremeEgg25

Fratellis and Zutons struggling even with physicals, but then both songs are very disappointing for me

 

I should have gone to HMV this week cos I've forgotten whats out when :lol:

Straight out of Nefyn, North Wales, (Aimee Anne) Duffy's smoky retro-soul has earned her comparisons with Dusty Springfield. Voted the second hottest new talent in the BBC's 'Sound for 2008' poll after fellow soul girl Adele, her debut album ROCKFERRY features Bernard Butler (Suede, McAlmont & Butler) as performer and co-writer. - HMV

yes, physicals, like the Zutons

Both the Fratellis and Zutons deserved their flops if you ask me -_-
I see Fratellis and Zutons are the first acts to suffer from the Woolworths dropping the sales thing then :(

I doubt that's why - their poor showing on i-tunes is why :lol:

Love this tune, I hope it does better the second time around passing the #20 peak in '05 next. I also like their other tunes including "Sexiest Man In Jamiaca" too.

It's really because both the Zutons and the Fratellis this week did quite a bit worse on downloads than they did last week.
