FAR more than that. It's the first time that any version of the song, or any song sung by either Jeff Buckley or Leonard Cohen has ever gone top 75! (Well, I know Jeff's version's been hanging around on downloads since earlier this year, but you know what I mean) Does anyone know if this is the first time any track written by Leonard Cohen has ever charted in the UK?

 

The only other Leonard Cohen Song that I can find - as far as being a UK Hit

Single - is 'First We Take Manhatten' - No.74 for Jennifer Warnes, in 1987.

 

'Hallelujah' isn't his most Covered Song. That 1984 Song is beaten by 'Suzanne',

which he wrote in 1966. Of course, that's been around for 18 Years longer than 'Hallelujah'

- but both are great Songs.

 

The Westlife song I was referring to was 'I'm Already There' because I can see it's doing well on iTunes! So I thought it would be Top 40, so there IS in fact a reason for it to be Top 40, if it was Top 40!

 

And then you go and ask the question is it top 40? :wacko:

 

 

If the Westlife track is not on iTunes, it won't even show in the official top 100. Not every track on iTunes appears in the official chart.

You should know by now, you have been a member here for a long time, anything that is not listed on the update is a no show for other artists.

:lol:

 

Lots of songs between 41 and 60 i reckon. Songs that were expected to do well but have flopped. I'm Yours definately isn't a wintry song though :lol:

:D Love Simone Cowell has the grinch.

Then I wish Jason could make it after the new yearXD

Alexandra will be huge! I can't believe that Listen is going to get a new peak! :lol:

 

I've just noticed Kaiser chiefs, Basshunter & Snow Patrol look too have all got their first flop :o

I know it cant be helped but :( for little album news

No further album news, sorry, we are not going to have an update today, MW have not realised their blooper, I did contact them, just have to wait until they update the charts tomorrow. Its beyond my help.

Another good start to the week for Take That in the albums.

:lol: Snow Patrol have had many 'flops' before!

I'm so glad 'Listen' is top 5. :wub: I'm sure it will fall during the week but if it's top 10 that will still be great.

Wow at the sales for Alexandra and Take That!! So pleased Geraldine is Top 10 too!

Geraldine's physicals (ooh err) must be pretty good because the downloads for her are awful.

Yeah wow at the sales at Take That, although hardly deserving and just goes to show their fans will buy any old c**p.
