    Thanks sunday - well chuffed for him. Another pot boiler :heart: :dance:
  3. Thanks Sunday - just been reading this over on D. I agree with this - his singles don't seem to do as well as the first release do they.

    Thanks for the stat girls. Really pleased he didn't drop much from the midweeks. Let's hope it stays bouyant until Losing Myself is promoted - some time next month hopefully :D

    I have just been reading that online. I did wonder why Will was so outspoken about Cowell recently. He is not beholding to Cowell any more and obviously doesn't feel the need to pander to him to sell his records - even though it gets a huge audience. And they have seen a downturn in audience last year and XFactor has not gone down at all well in the US :P He got the arse because he couldn't manipulate the public into backing his favourite. He hadn't taken into account the fact that people swung their votes towards someone other than his favourite. He tried hard to convince people that Gareth was the runaway winner.The voting stats proved that it was all a big lie. Imo that's why he so wanted a show of his own so he could manipulate to his heart's content. He hates to lose Bev despite the fact that his 'winners' and people he has backed in the past have all pretty much fallen by the wayside with one or two exceptions who have managed to escape his clutches. I suspect this will bring all the GG lovers out of the woodwork and onto Twitter in their droves :lol: Do you know what Lesley - my husband reckons that someone had it in for him who pulled strings. Editing to add - I bet Will doesn't appear to give his thoughts on this as Gareth does :lol: I actually felt sorry for Gareth, in hindsight, because he had been promised he would win. Whatever happened to "There can only be one winner" - yeah right - not where Scowell was concerned. :rolleyes: He later made certain Gareth got star billing even perpetuating the story that Gareth was 'the' Pop Idol, that even today some people think Will was the runner-up. Cowell is just a sore loser who dumps his artists when things don't go to plan.
  8. Ah -yep- stupid - but thanks for that.
  9. Thanks TT :dance: - what's this though?

    Yep. She may have just found him on Twitter, she hasn't made many Tweets.

    No - worried is probably the wrong word for us on here :lol: Annoyed is perhaps a better one. Many commented on that TT - that they couldn't hear anything different to his previous albums. I think when you have a musician who writes and performs his own songs you tend to get stuff that's a bit 'samey', whereas Will doesn't write the music just the lyrics and contributes on the melodies and has musicians to help him turn his lyrics into songs so gets their influence on them.

    He's never going to get played on Radio 1 so it's not worth worrying over what might have been. I have to say I'm a bit puzzled as to why Capital have suddenly stopped playing him though. They were full-square behind him with Changes. Something had to have happened behind the scenes for that to have gone pearshaped. They didn't even playlist him when Jealousy became a big hit. Very odd. Because James Morrison was constantly being compared over on D I had a look at his position in the album chart. He's currently at #34 and he has the full backing of R1 and Capital. If a song/album is good it will sell Sunday despite not having their support.

    Thanks Sunday. I think Will needs to go to dog training classes. If he doesn't knock the indoors pooing on the head he'll have a really hard time doing it later. I bet he doesn't scold her when she does it and gives lots of praise when she does it outside. Same with the chewing - he needs to give her something to chew on and distract her with it if she starts to chew other things. You have to be really firm with them. I Googled Polzeath and noticed that they don't allow dogs on their beach - oops. He'll have to get someone to look after her if he goes there in the summer. http://www.thisisnorthcornwall.com/beaches.html He was on his way to Wales yesterday: http://a.yfrog.com/img735/6583/g5qmg.jpg

    He may not have had the support of the two biggies but still managed to get blanket coverage across the country, and having R1 on board certainly doesn't help to sell records - Will has proved that many times. He may not have had a huge audience by comparison but the locals all picked him up and played him hugely. And Echoes is still selling well.
