Grami. :o Do you not remember 'We Ride'? :P

 

I liked 'We Ride' :(

'Rehab' just reminds me of that hideous Justin Timberlake record it rips off and as I said, it's so lifeless.

I think Rihanna is great and every one of her singles has been brilliant but this is just one too many. I'd even listen to the Maroon 5 collabaration over 'Rehab' :heehee:

The have had 3 top 30 hits now, so as much as I dislike them, they are not one hit wonders.

 

I was speaking to three "chavs" in my local (public house) who are "big up" into N-Dubz as they think they "is well amaze" when watching the X-Factor results last night.

 

Unsurprisingly all three of them want Alexandra to win.

McFly :(

 

They had so many better songs than this to release! Is Children In Need a curse now? :o

Off-topic: Leona's Run is #1 on iTunes! :cheer:

 

Back on topic: This McFly song is terrible.

I thought McFly's fanbase will help the single to enter at least at # 10 :o
No, there is no real definition of a 'hit' - you could say anything in the top 75 is a hit (but I would include top 40 personally).

 

I think it's if a song hasn't reached the heights (or similar) of their most successful charting single. For example McFly have entered Top 20 with their new one, and MANY class it as a flop because they expect them to reach Top 10 (Do you get what I mean :lol:)

 

But like you said there's no proper definition of a 'Hit'

I hope this means the end of McFly now. Surely they can't fund themselves on their own label forever?

I don't really know a lot about record companies and such but if they're flopping hard one can only hope.

Will hopefully make McFly have a think and relerase something better like Lies. Do Ya & One For The Radio are the worst songs on their album. What were they thinking? Down Goes Another One, Corrupted, Everybody Knows, POV, Falling In Love... anything like that please!

LOL. Good news for Leona, and you are quite right about McFly.

Number of Discs: 1

Though Tennessee's Kings of Leon are a rock band from the south, that doesn't mean they're a Southern Rock band. The Followill brothers Caleb, Jared, and Nathan (along with their cousin Matthew) play a straight-ahead, hard-driving brand of rock & roll that owes more to Crazy Horse and the Rolling Stones than it does to Molly Hatchet. Their debut album, 2003's YOUTH & YOUNG MANHOOD showed them to be an earthier equivalent to garage-rock contemporaries like the White Stripes and the Strokes. - HMV

Kings of Leon! Love that song! :wub:

Think she hasa brilliant voice and personality but it'll be like Leona part 2. Now the amazing Ruth has gone I guess I'll have to back Alexandra though.

 

Damn public.

Oh, I agree about the 'flop' defiinition (eg that McFly record is a total flop up to their last records) but One Hit Wonder is quite cut and dried imo, as if an artist has had more than one top 40 hit then they are not true OHW's.

Haha, it isn't the end for McFly. Especially when they can still sell arena tickets.

 

Tbh, I'm kind of glad it didn't go top 10. That's the pressure out of the window. They should be doing what they did with Lies a lot more too, releasing the download before the CD singles.

Speaking of N-Dubz, the album is amazing! Support the British Music not the American Sex and Drugs Music!

as far as I know songs that reached the top 40 are defined as a hit.

 

So Ms Cilmi is actually a TWO hit WondeR? :kink:
