How deluded and uneducated can you be? Universal with Joe proved how badly handled he was by that shite Syco. I mean to be 5 weeks in the Top 5, and now 6 weeks in Top 10 is impressive, and he is doing it with NO airplay, NO singles, no big TV slot, and no big marketing. And it is a competitive season with Will, Example, James, Ed, David, Wretch, Tony, Red Hot Chilli Peppers, and others. Joe already proved how he is so much more talented than Olly during X Factor, where it was a level playing field. He didn't used big dancers, and media whoring, but just getting out there and proving how much of a great artist he is. Joe already got a #1 selling single. He is a respected class act with actual, unique talent, and doesn't need to strip to get a #1. This is why he sang for the Queen and royal family TWICE, and featured in a blockbuster movie. Katherine Jenkins, Rolando Villazón, and Andrea Bocelli, are such Z-listers :rolleyes: Good job with that! He did NOT bring this album out during xmas and holiday season like all x Factor acts. He did NOT released it during mothers day like Mary Bryne and other artists. And he is building his own hype because time-and-time again Joe proved himself as a great artist, and will be here for a long time as he matures. And Adele, Florence and the Machines, Ellie Gouldings, Whitney Houston, Michael Buble, Katherine Jenkins much be handled so BADLY by their record label because they covered songs in there albums and so unoriginal. :rolleyes: Andrea Bocelli is probably the worst one since he has been releasing covers all his life. Good job again :rolleyes: ! It actually shows how unique and original these artists and Joe are to transform these songs into something of their own and sell well with them. ;) And why don't you actually do some research because as you can see from Joe's fanbase, there is A LOT of younger women AND men. Again, good job. You are really hitting a home-run on these comments. :rolleyes:

I don't think so. I think they are more excited to hear it. But in general, you don't see that happening with Lady Gaga as well as almost all artists that create a "deluxe" or some sort of "edition" off their albums. Even before this news, I was thinking if they were going to re-release or do something to expand on the success of this one for the holidays. Haha! :D It is an interesting move by the label, and it would coincide with his tour.

Good post. And it is impressive for this album and without any singles released as well. It deserves it. I hope it maintains its Top 10 position this week. I am surprised that musicweek did not released the album chart. That is weird.

Here here. I was also going to agree about what you posted about fatmuffin's post but you deleted it. Well said.

What a jump for Joe! I hope it stays Top 10 with 7 new entries.

It has been about 2 years since Leona released something, and then another pushed back. Reminds me of Shayne Wards. She gets an X Factor performance in the US and UK, but now nothing I assume. Really horribly managed. It looks like she is still a puppet to Simon/Syco. She needs to break away from them. Just ruining her. And don't understand what is going on with Alex. Nothing at all, and she is expecting to release something by the end of this year as well.

I can see now what Val4jan is saying. Some people just like putting people down even though there is nothing to put down on. They like negativity even though there is nothing to be negative about. Well, great job for Joe to have proven people like you wrong with his success. It truly is a great album and glad it shows that with his sales and chart position. Also, Tony Bennett must be shit* then for doing a cover album. As well as Adele with her covers and Whitney Houston's covers, The Beatle's covers. Andrea Bocelli's covers as well as Mariah Carey to name just a few. These are the worst artists alive. :rolleyes: The only one narrow, it looks like it, is the one that posted right above you. ;)

But you were the one who disregarded Joe by trying to put him down and sounded like you were not happy for him. What is wrong with the album? You might not like it, but alot of other people do and Joe has proved himself. It shows more of him as an artist actually the ability he has to sell with this album. And the album is really really really good. Great job to Joe I say! Some people if you look at the other thread didn't give him any credit when it really wasn't his fault but awful Syco. So he has proven himself and happy for him! He deserves it with all that has happened to him.

Olly is not with Syco. Like JLS as well. However, Joe has proven how horrible they were. Clearly, Syco does look stupid.

The song was already popular before Glee came into the picture. Joe performing that song on X Factor made that song already popular given how it charted in the Top 20 from #62 in 1982. Then, given that Joe performed it again with the highest final, it is no surprised it jumped to Top 10. The song was already popular even before Glee came into the picture in January (January 11, 2010 is the exact air date of the 1st episode), but by that time, Journey was already in the Top 10 because of Joe performing it. Ohh... you got it already.

That was in January, but the song was already Top 10 by that time because Joe had performed it again for the X Factor final in December. Glee did not start releasing their songs until January when the show aired in the UK. So for Don't Stop Believing, Joe had performed it once in October, and it jumped in the Top 20, then again in December, jumping the song to Top 10, then Glee aired in January and started releasing songs. Funny enough, when that song first aired in the UK in 1982, it only charted as high as #62.

It was actually only X Factor and Joe. Glee did not come into the picture until January 2010 after X Factor, when they first aired in the UK and started releasing their own songs.

Yeah, Joe is doing brilliantly!

Woo... nice climb for Joe! :D

Joe McElderry is up again to Top 5! :o :) Impressive and happy to see this great album doing so well!

Joe has sold more than his debut album in terms of retailer sales with the climb to #6, and looks to be selling more. Does anyone have any album sales #?

Joe is up to #3 it with his album :o :o , it has overtook Will and David Guetta, released just last week! It is doing fantastically!

I think one of the X Factor single, a charity one, went to #1 within the hour.

No it doesn't. It proved that Joe was given shite by Syco. Have you seen Syco's current and previous track records?!! Come on. No one would be blaming that label if they actually did their job, but as proven with how well Universal is doing with Joe, Syco has completely failed him and did not give him any support. That is the problem. Joe was always the winner, current to the industry, and he proved that with actual talent, and not needing to strip for a #1. And this is not the first time that Syco has done this as well. What is going on with Leona is upsetting, how mishandled she is. Then there is Shayne, who Syco basically tried to destroy his career. Syco made the brilliant idea to wait 3 years to release another album, and release a cover as a debut single. Then drop him like a hot potato. It goes on and on. There is a reason why Simon/Syco is not respected in the music industry. Anyway, this album looks to be staying in the Top 5 again this week, as it moves to #4 to. Great job to Joe and giving Syco a big middle finger! :)

Look at Joe rising! :o :D Happy for him, and it is a delightful, great album as someone said!

I hope Joe can maintain at least Top 5 again this week but wow!

Wow, Joe is climbing! :o :o He is doing really well with this album!

delete.

Joe was coached; not trained. There is no singing "training" program on the show. :lol: You understand it takes 8-10 years to be trained as an opera singer. You really have no clue about opera. I don't know what show you are watching, but everyone knows, especially during Steve's year (as Sharon pointed out), there is A LOT of manipulation. You can figure that easily --- think Katie Waissel. Whitney Houston and Celine Dion must be one of the most least talent artists then. :rolleyes:

And Whitney Houston must be less talented than Olly. LOL! Good job on that! How do you know Joe can't? It is not like Syco gave him any support. Anyway, he is only 20 years old, and planning to in the next album, although it is not like it makes or break an artist like Whitney or Britney. And it's not like co-writing credit means anything.
