Right. I'm making this new poll called "Could it have charted higher" (weird name, I know). Basically, the premise is that you discuss a certain past song (in the forum post) which didn't peak inside the Top 40 (UK charts only, obviously) to see whether or not it should have charted higher. After all, there are some songs where people felt it should have charted higher. This is the first time, so it's basically a trial. If it goes well, I might do some more. The songs qualify if they were released in June 2008 or earlier in the UK.

 

 

Today's song is Milky - In My Mind. Milky's debut single "Just The Way You Are" was a smash hit in 2002 peaking at number 8. Their second single "In My Mind" was released in December 2002 and it only peaked at number 48. In my opinion, it peaked quite low and it should have charted a bit higher, Top 20 at least.

 

Any opinions?

 

I'm not sure if in polls on Buzzjack you have to answer ALL poll questions or not (hence "I voted "No" on the first question, sorry." option was there for the second question). Can you let me know?

 

The topic may not be perfect, but at least I'm giving it a go.

This was weaker than 'Just the way you are'. JTWYA was a fab upbeat dance record, very catchy...this is very much the same all the way through. Must try harder. I voted top 40 but i'm not surprised this flopped!!

I used to love this. This is the first time I've heard it in about 5 years and jesus, she really can't sing can she?

 

I think the problem is this was too similar to their debut single, acts rarely have successful follow-ups when they do this.

yes, top 40!

Oh, this song was overplayed on my favourite radio. :D Good tune, shame it was so low in the charts. Top-20 material for sure.

I think this is Gooddelta's next BJSC16 track :heehee: :unsure:

No, this was a deserved flop. Just The Way You Are was a pleasant tune, but this took the fluff too far. The track is too lightweight, and the vocals are weak and slightly off.

cheek :arrr: :lol: I have this on single funnily enough :wub: still prefer Just The Way You Are though...

 

great idea for a thread!

Yes, but that was the days of the Vengaboys :kink:

 

I loved this at the time... should have gone top 20. Was the album any good?
