    It is not great it sounds like like Only Girl lite- was expecting a huge smash but it is very generic. http://www.rihanna-diva.com/ecoutez-we-found-love/
  2. Actually the Tories have changed since the Thatcher years Cameron and Osbourne wear more make up than Thatcher, take more drugs and seem to have more black friends. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-20...-interview.html
  3. Not true why should anyone pussyfoot around an issue. I do not know what people expected when they voted for the Tories. That is all they do and all they have ever done forget about the poor, sick and underclass and protect the interests of the rich. The Tories have no sense of society and no conscience, David Camerons cabinet is full of people who have never had to struggle for anything.Nick Clegg remains passive and weak and should be ashamed of his servitude to the Tories. I am shocked that they do not have someone going from one hospital bed to another seeing if they can pull the plug early.

    Pleased for him a far better song than 1D, hope he holds on for at least 2 wks.

    I thought Number 1 was their first No 1 even though they were the featured artist.Jason is doing well I still think he could challenge him.

    Last night was the Tulisa show she seemed to take up the bulk of last nights episode-crying, talking about her mum, arguing with Kelly. I think the talent was fairly average but the teacher and repackaged John Wilding were both good. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz/artic...k-audition.html

    Are you sure you are talking about Misha how and when did she show a dreadful attitude or any attitude at all.Having confidence and self belief is a positive thing she did not show cockiness at all. John Wilding will obviously get to the final and sing with Jennifer Hudson mark my words.

    I dont like Dappy but it is a good song and a different sound for him.I hope either that or Jason go to no 1, it would be nice if Maroon 5 managed it but I dont think that will happen.

    That is the strangest thing that Jealousy is not the strongest track and I hope Runaway or Good Times get released they are ace and very radio friendly.

    As long as Misha is one of the finalist I am not fussed, she really has potential. http://soundcloud.com/misha-bryan/misha-bryan-champion-remix

    Yes I was talking about you :P , I did not know why you did not think Jealousy would do well.I knew this would be a strong era for him, I think RCA have done a good job so far.

    Brilliant for Will Young, I remember some people thought he would not even go Top 20. Coldplay seem to have stalled and Maroon 5 climbing fast.
  13. Great article and very unlike an American to have a World view and an International perspective on past and present American political history.It shocks me when I visit America about how insular and narrow minded it is.There seems no attempt to know about the outside world (their news programmes rarely deal with what is going on outside America). There will always be a do as I say and not as I do attitude to what Americans do concerning International affairs. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yuC_4mGTs98...player_embedded
  14. A poster on PJ: "What a negative way of looking at things. I'm not even a massive Burke fan, but from what I've heard it's more a case of there's two amazing songs that they can't decide what to lead with, rather than desperately searching for a single. It's between the Benny Benassi song and and the Eric Morillo song. The last I was told, it was the latter song that was going to be the single. Twitter: Harry Romero Wrapping up this project with alexandra burke @djjosenunez @ErickMorillo. I can't wait to share it with the world!
  15. Its understandable I imagine Alex is putting her foot down for Elephant and RCA are saying under no circumstances is that happening :D It is supposedly a choice between an Erick Morillo track or a Benny Bennassi song (from PJ).

    Its next to impossible for a girl to win unless they are exceptionally talented.I imagine the main voting demographic are young teen girls or older women who seem to vote for what male tottie catches there eye.

    None of the new entries from last week seem to have much staying power at the moment.I imagine that all three will get maybe 1 or 2 weeks tops in the Top 10.

    Last year should have been the best it had really good singers in Matt, Rebecca, Aidan and TreyC and a duet that should have been outstanding with Christina and Rebecca.There was too much manipulation though and the judges made it all about them so 2008 is still the peak Rachel and Austin were also really good that year. It looks like One Direction will sell more than Pixie, The Sats and Leona combined this week.

    I think Will will be holding onto that record for good.First week sales for the others, not sure about Joe. 2005-Shayne - 750,000 2006-Leona - 571,000 2007-Leon - 297,000 2008-Alex - 576,046

    Then you should have said that you did not think it would happen so fast after there screeching cats performance on Red or Black :P :P The charts have been very diverse of late Ms Dynamite, Will Young, Ed Sheeran, Christina A, Emeli Sande most genres have had a look in.

    Did not see that coming it was easily the most predictable No 1 and the fastest No 1 of the year so far.They supposedly broke pre-order records.

    I hope Gucci Gucci does not get anywhere near the Top 100 but it would be great if Natalia and Aloe Blacc had a shot at even Top 20. I am surprised after there shocking Red or Black performance that 1D are No 1 so soon.I hope Jason or God forgive me Dappy can knock them off next week.

    Kelly is becoming the lynchpin of the show she really makes the other judges look stale in comparison.The last singer was amazing he deserves to go to the live shows but I cant see that happening Cowell seems to resent male singers who are not red blooded males.
  24. Is this what Cowell is going to do for every "live" performance they have to give, have a huge video introduction and a million girls to hide the fact that they cannot sing and always had to rely on loud backing tracks and backing singers during X-factor.That was shocking I actually take back everything horrid I have said about JLS they are miles better.

    This news makes me very happy, glad Cowell is loosing his touch.The show truly sucked. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz/artic...e-Watchdog.html
