Yes and Yes to this it would be great if Nicole got to No 1 only because her single is miles better, I think the Wanted have done the worst Comic relief single ever.Parade are doing so well also but I think Adele has had No 1 for far too long.

No for some reason they hired five girls who look like them(very poor management team) the girls could have done it.Pleased they are up to 18 not sure if they have any promotion lined up but they need something next week.

Nicoles song is actually rather good glad to see her doing well.The Wanted on the other hand the song is one of the worst ever and hopefully will not get to No 1.Please support Parade and Louder a new girl band who are alot better than all the awful boy bands around at the moment.

Alexandra Burke - Heartbreak On Hold
Start Without You may be criminal in every sense but during the tour she absolutely killed it and it proved to be one of the most popular numbers she performed.I am sure the first song will be an uptempo but guessing the second will be a ballad. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8HBNUZ3y8jk

It is a terrible song probably her worst.Not sure why RedOne is so crap most of the time and Pitbull makes every song ugly.I think the song would have deservedly sunk without trace if she did not have the American Idol gig and the video was not premiered on the show.

Alexandra Burke - Heartbreak On Hold
She keeps tweeting the word Fancy and mentioning Drake and Autumn Rowe, I think they will all be involved in this single or I could be wrong and it could be some unknown.In truth knowing Syco they are so useless I hope they get this era right and release something soon.The tour went really well for Alex with mostly good reviews so she needs to build on that.

This is who Kim Hodashian is, who would have so little self respect and pride that they would download anything this poor excuse for a women would do.Just Tragic

American Idol Season 10 || Discussion Thread
I think Jacob has a great voice but he needs to tone it down a bit.I think him and Pia will be the last two standing.I think the show is so much better without Simon who is so superficial and a fraud.It is a shame that Randy was not sacked he is useless and should be replaced by someone credible who does not play the fool.

The Vampire Diaries
Loving the new batch of episodes the story lines are just getting stronger and the plots better.I really like Bonnie and about time too she had a boyfriend rather than playing the role they always give the black girl in American shows the loyal best friend.It is a shame that they dont do a Vampire Diaries movie the cast, acting and plots are far superior to stupid Twilight in everyway and the actors better looking.

Jessie J- predict album sales
I do not think it is the fact that the critics have been generally dismissive of the album it is the fact that so many of them have barely had anything good to say. I think that made me think twice before downloading it but of course it depends on if she has built up a strong enough fan base who will buy regardless.

iTunes Chart: February [III]
Thanks for posting but why cant she just be normal.It is pretentious and stupid rather like the song.I for one am getting fed up with all these p*** poor attempts at protest songs.Hopefully the song will still not get to No 1. Plus he seems to be getting uglier. :lol:

Jessie J- predict album sales
I agree and I think she will do about 90k this week and 500k in total.The critics have rumbled her and alot of the reviews have included the fact that there is not much there bar the hype, her songs sound the same and lack substance.
-
iTunes Chart: February [III]
I will be very surprised if Jessie J's album includes alot of cherry picking for such a hyped artist her album is poor.Too much filler and not enough substance.Claire Maguires album is really good though.She has huge potential but clearly Adele is leaving everyone behind this year.Gutted once again for Alesha, I seem to repeat that phrase for every release of hers.
-
Next week's releases
What has happened to radio support for Alesha Dixon Radio, Brummer Boy and her latest with Jay Sean are all radio friendly but commercial radio is blanking her.I suppose it would be too much to hope that she at least goes Top 40.KP and KW will probably go Top 20 if not higher.

Ditto to that Adele is what has been missing from pop in awhile a huge voice with no autotune, no rapper features and no miming.Jessie J is overated and her album clips are tedious at best.

iTunes Chart: February [III]
What a dull week and just to make it worse bloody Bieber.Pleased for Adele though hope Gaga like Britney misses out on No 1 totally. Where is Alesha Dixon and Every Little Part of Me, I suppose that will be lucky to go Top 100 on itunes.

Which artist has the best live performance?
I think my Top 3 would be Stevie Wonder just perfect vocally, great songs and had everyone singing and dancing.Destinys Child they were entertaining, sang beautifully(especially Kelly) and their dance routines were on point.For the new generation Alexandra Burke is head and shoulders above her UK competition, her tour performances have been amazing both vocally and her dancing. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EiF2QCiEv1w...feature=related http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8HBNUZ3y8jk...feature=related

Thats a bit much unless you know him well enough to say he is a bad person, I have never seen anything about him that would back that up.Plus what has he ever done that is homophobic, I just dont believe it. Bruno Mars seems overly sensitive about his height or lack of it and he really really really needs to stay away from all substances that enter through the nose. So glad that even though she was not nominated for a BRIT that Adele is benefitting the most especially considering all the mimers that were nominated.

Don't you just hate singers who mime?
I think Katy Perry should mime every performance as her live vocals are dire.Even when she is clearly trying hard to give a good live performance it is still terrible The Grammys/X-factor.Amy Whinehouse should maybe try mining to as her current singing voice is also p*** poor. I think for every other artist who claims to be a singer there is no excuse for the amount of miming current pop acts do.Sadly Rihanna does too much miming as her live vocals are not strong, Cheryl has built an entire career on miming I eagerly await her attempt to break America as they rarely let artists mime,JLS sing well so why so much miming.Since autotune and the fact that a backing track and not a live band are used in so many television performances many acts just dont make the effort.

Britney Spears - Hold It Against Me (New Single)
That video was just painful to watch, sometimes less is more.I do like the song but something is still not right with Britney.The dance moves were not tight and she seems to just look vacant or like she is on prozac.What is it with Brian and the big white dress and lifting the singer in the air he has been using that on X-factor too.

Mary Byrne
Anyone still remember Mary Byrne from last years X-factor one of the few acts that did not resort to miming and loud backing tracks (Mime Direction, Cher, Belle Ami,Cheryl).Will release her debut album Mine & Yours next month.The former Tesco employee's LP, produced by Nigel Wright, will be released by Sony Music in Ireland on March 25 and the UK on March 28.The full tracklisting of Mine & Yours is as follows. How will she fare or alas will it be spillage in aisle 14 Ms Byrne once again.The dreaded lazy Syco approach of cover versions stacked upon cover versions yet again but it may do well with the over 60s market. 1. 'This Is A Mans World' 2. 'I Just Call You Mine' 3. 'Something' 4. 'You're My World' 5. 'I Who Have Nothing' 6. 'The Way We Were' 7. 'Galileo' 8. 'My Life' 9. 'You Don't Have To Say You Love Me' 10. 'All I Want Is You' 11. 'Always On My Mind' 12. 'Unbreakable'
