I wonder what the profit margin is on a 99p download.

Kelly Roland? :D

And You're Beautiful..... :(

Doesn't the fact that it's easier devalue it, even if it's just a small devaluation?

Because their 89,000 followers want to know. That's hardly most music lovers.

How are you speaking on behalf of "most music followers"?

Of course. I was being needlessly flipant. Sorry.

Oh, put up the price of downloads. That'd quit all these shitty songs selling a million on trickle sales. :P

Yes - because if there's one thing less lucky than dying that's getting stuck behind a dead person while they're at number 1.

Almost any song that has been number 1 before would be number 1 again if given the huge television exposure of reality tv - would anyone agree with this statement?

It seems to me that it would be easier to pick out number 1s from the past that would STILL be a hit now rather than vice versa.

Manic Street Preachers - Masses Against the Classes

There's a serious lack of logic in this thread where personal opinions of the artist's music are biasing replies. I'm outta here.

I agree but very very few if any artists don't go through a stale period and most trundle on through it for the rest of their careers.

Could explain both of your assertions, please? While I would say that Madona is well ahead I can't see how SEB has achieved as much as even half what Rihanna has done.

This calls for a Sporcle!

If it's any consolation for Rihanna to even be the SECOND most successful female ever in the UK is an astonishing achievement considering how long she's been around for.

I wouldnt worry. Neither does Kate Bush and she's an actual musical genius.

Shara Nelson

They stuck with it long enough. Don't you think they got bored with it? I certainly did.

Do you mean the lyrics?

how can music be deep?

What if my fave is Coldplay?

Another name for a transmission is a broadcast. Here's another Manchester band with a song about a broadcast, 03nFwzg7fxc

Not nearly as interesting as Midnight
