July 20, 200817 yr I like that song, Black and gold. Quite catchy. And fair enough about mcfly. But I wouldn't go as far as too judge them(Danny, Tom, Dougie, Harry) for the way they are selling their single. I'd blame the marketing team. But it's over and done with now so yeah.

July 20, 200817 yr Author I'm having a hard time listening to the chart every Sunday, I'm beginning to lose interest in the charts, I'm so bored with it at the moment, it seems so lifeless, it needs a bomb. -_-
July 20, 200817 yr Sam Sparro...now a baleted big hit in his own country Australia ----funky as hell!
July 20, 200817 yr I think its because their record company feel the need (obv) to cash-in the best way they can through marketing to kids, which makes sense because they want money. It's just not really seen as fair play, pushing thegroup to the top with low first-week sales and then they drop out the chart 3/4 weeks later. Via that method, the #1 doesn't really seem to have been worthy. But McFly can only do what their record company do with them, its not their decision. Their music is c**p aswell. The free album today sounded different all the songs sound mature and different to anything they have done. I understand people won't listen to the album because it's Mcfly but ithink given time with the next few singles Mcfly will selll more all round and won't need txt downloads offers ect. btw Mcfly are on their own label hence the fact they gave away a free album something they couldn't do with island

July 20, 200817 yr I'm having a hard time listening to the chart every Sunday, I'm beginning to lose interest in the charts, I'm so bored with it at the moment, it seems so lifeless, it needs a bomb. -_- See, this is what I was saying in the iTunes topic earlier and I had people coming at me as if I was talking about some alien concept.

July 20, 200817 yr I'm having a hard time listening to the chart every Sunday, I'm beginning to lose interest in the charts, I'm so bored with it at the moment, it seems so lifeless, it needs a bomb. -_- Yeah me too. In the past 3 weeks i've stopped listening to it. I decided to tune in this week but I couldnt even care that I missed the bottom 20 of the top40, i'm just not bothered anymore. And judging by the top20 I wont be listening for much longer :arrr:
July 20, 200817 yr Duffy again :wub: And I agree (whoever it said) that Distant Dreamer is a classy track!
July 20, 200817 yr i'm only here to see who's no1, the chart is very boring lately. Same old, same old.
July 20, 200817 yr I'm having a hard time listening to the chart every Sunday, I'm beginning to lose interest in the charts, I'm so bored with it at the moment, it seems so lifeless, it needs a bomb. -_- I've started to listen to the charts (US, UK, Germany) in the end of the 80s and tbh at that time the charts were slow moving too. It is just the diversity of the different charts I like.
July 20, 200817 yr See, this is what I was saying in the iTunes topic earlier and I had people coming at me as if I was talking about some alien concept. I'm completely on your side. I think what they're saying is true though, people buy what they hear and like, which shows whats the root of the problem - commercial radio. They rarely support new music, and keep playing the same hits for months on end.
July 20, 200817 yr 15 (from 14) The Ting Tings - That's Not My Name [P] http://nme.tsdshop.com/upload/product/thumbs/423_30.jpg Chart Run: 1-2-2-3-4-7-8-13-14-15 [10 wks] Release date: 12-5-2008 Availability: in stock Number of Discs: 1 Catalogue Number: 88697293792 Label: COLUMBIA Salford boy/girl garage pop duo, Jules de Martino & Katie White were amongst the front runners in the BBC's 'Sound for 2008' poll. The Tings Tings were the hottest ticket in their (home)town û their house parties at their Islington Mill apartment the place to be. It wasn't long before record companies were alerted and also attending, the duo subsequently signed a deal with SonyBMG. - HMV Video here: track listing 1. That's Not My Name 2.

July 20, 200817 yr ...the root of the problem - commercial radio. They rarely support new music, and keep playing the same hits for months on end. this is VERY true!!!!

July 20, 200817 yr i don't want to turn this into a Mcfly thread but have alisten and then tell me mcfly have not changed http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=cfFAPiruCkQ We have a McFly thread in the Pop forum, so yes, please don't turn this into that ;)
July 20, 200817 yr I'm completely on your side. I think what they're saying is true though, people buy what they hear and like, which shows whats the root of the problem - commercial radio. They rarely support new music, and keep playing the same hits for months on end. There definitely needs to be some sort of shake up somewhere along the line. The problem is, commercial radio stations are really arrogant and when people suggest they play newer stuff, they give a smug reply like "if people had a problem they wouldn't listen". So it's a bit of a vicious circle... :(
