  1. Hold on. Has anybody even heard the new Saturdays song yet? :unsure: It won't get to #1 unless it starts circulating soon. It's got less than a month.

     

    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?

  2. 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.

  3. 4. Where Them Girls At (feat. Nicki Minaj & Flo Rida) - David Guetta, Flo Rida & Nicki Minaj :up:

     

    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

  4. Only what you gave the countries that DNQ'd.

     

     

    You're allowed to reveal the points you gave to the 4 songs that didn't qualify, in line with how (I think) it's done in regular contests.

     

    12 pts = Aquafina: Rock Mafia feat. Miley Cyrus - The Big Bang (Smash Mode Remix)

    10 pts = FYR Vojvodina-on-the-Wold: Charlotte Perrelli - Not Alone

     

    That is all. :lol:

  5. :cheer: :spin: :dance: :yahoo: Things on the up for Unovia! Again, thanks to all who voted. And congrats to Batidas too - two great songs in a row with Riverside and Dlya Teba (sp.?)

     

    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

    3. (for 2 pts) Which album will be higher next week: Adele - 21 or Jennifer Lopez – Love?? Adele - 21

  8. Would 'Break my stride' have been selling reasonably well/consistantly in the download era maybe?

     

    That's exactly what I was thinking. It's been used in TV commercials over the last couple of years so that might explain why its sales have increased.

  9. 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".
  10. Nice to see 'I'm Into You' there. Hopefully it'll keep rising throughout the week, especially as the Video is out this afternoon. :D

     

    At least Jennifer Lopez's record company know how to market a new single effectively.

    Cheers Eyes :D

     

    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. :thumbup:

     

    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.

  13. 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
