SIX POINTS? Thank you to whoever that was, btw. ^_^ Congrats to all that qualified, but I still don't like any of the songs in this heat. I knew I didn't stand a chance. :(
Even though it's no consolation, I did actually give your entry 2 points.
I'm most surprised at how well the track I gave 0 points to ended up doing.

4. Where Them Girls At (feat. Nicki Minaj & Flo Rida) - David Guetta, Flo Rida & Nicki Minaj
Wow, 'Where Them Girls At' clearly selling massively at the moment. There seemed to be quite a big gap between #5 (Snoop Dogg) and #6 (Katy Perry) earlier on. Yet this has managed to surpass this gap with ease.
Could this end up #1 after all? :o

That is all. :lol:

Thanks Liam ^_^ I really didn't know what to expect - hope Batidas goes from strength to strength and become one of BJSC's most successful countries. :D

I think people need to distinguish the difference between a "ballad" and a "love song". There's plenty of examples given already of what I would say are "love songs" set to uptempo beats. A ballad, imo, is a track that is stripped back to its bare essentials - the vocals and an additional instrument (be it piano, or acoustic guitar). For me, 'Someone Like You' definitely falls into the category "ballad".

18 (--) Nero - Guilt (18) [1 wk] Love this one. Great it just got top 10 officially
Have to admit, I wasn't sure where Nero was gonna go after 'Me & You' peaked at #15. It used to seem that wherever your debut single peaked, it was unlikely that the follow up would better that peak. I honestly didn't think 'Guilt' would prove to be this successful but clearly those who mentioned the track had strong pre-release sales were right. In terms of chart performance, it's a step in the right direction - can Nero's next single outpeak 'Guilt'? Bodes well for the album if Nero continue producing the hits.
31 (--) The Sound Of Arrows - Nova (31) [1 wk] Great to see this. It's a wonderful track.
It was on the release schedule - not that it says much. A long list of "new releases" yet I'm looking through thinking "i've heard none of these!!!" :D So I use YouTube to listen to some of them and this definitely stood out. I wouldn't say it's brilliant but for what it is, it's good.

oh God, yes, I forgot about her - it wasn't even entertaining, it was just $h!t :mellow:
Actually, she would make an excellent winner. Just imagine what the Queen would be thinking as this woman spends 5 minutes getting up after doing the splits. :D
Who needs Diversity, Susan Boyle, Spelbound and "posh pop" Oxford Uni students when this is the future of Britsh entertainment? :D

iTunes Chart: May 2011 (I)
in UK Charts
Maybe they're trying out the "to radio, to retail" treatment with The Saturdays. If a video is released prior to this release date then all the better for it.
Slightly OT; if 'Party Rock Anthem' didn't have a music video would the song have reached #1 in the UK?
