    I bought the Radiohead album, and like the idea of the artwork stickers being made up by yourself :).
  2. I've got it on DVD :), well my friend has and I borrowed it from him :). It's on Amazon and Metallica even bought the rights to it so they could use it on this video!!.

    Remember this band from the late 80's?, they were tipped to be the next big thing way back in the day, with A&M pumping loads of cash into them, but never were sucsessful apart from this single. A feature in Q magazine described their sound as "Money going down a drain". This is their only top 75 from January 1987, which was "Beautiful Imbalance" reaching #50, chart run from Polyhex was 56-{50}-53->3 k6FRBTUP7ts

    I remember Infernal's "From Paris to Berlin" doing really well on downloads cos of all those mixes, these days that sort of novelty will not be so popular.

    In 2005 physical sales in the top 20 were quite level with downloads, with physical sales only just edging out in the top 10. Will be interesting to see what the stats are for 2007 :). It's not right seeing physical singles fade away tho :(, will be really missing the days I used to rush out into town buying the latest Feeder single at the time :(. Won't be the same sitting at a computer clicking on the "Download" button on iTunes.

    Yup, it was even mentioned on Wikipedia! :D :). That's the one!!!, a really good album too, glad it's done so well! :D.
  8. *Jonathan Wilkes - 'Just Another Day' (5/3) and he still hasn't invented his catchphrase yet! <_< . What a dreadful song it was!!!, he was even worse at the now outdated "You've Been Framed" presenters job!.

    Yeah, as long as an album sells enough copies to keep the label happy, that's all that matters. Same with Feeder, they've broken into the mainstream (only with lower record sales than Will), and made a lot of money for themselves and the label. This year I think it's more of a time for them to sit back, enjoy fatherhood and enjoy writing and performing music live with no worries about charts and record sales, but also keep Mr Echo Label/EMI or Mr Pinnacle happy by selling amounts what is aimed and expected for by the label :). I'm looking forward to it already :), and the album is going to be brilliant, loads of electric strings on it too.
  11. Definetly my fave album of 2007!.

    Yeah, it really pi**es me off when people think the singles chart is the be-all-or-end-all of an artists career.

    Well, "Fortune Faded" didn't do too badly as it did make the top 20 :). Shouldn't have been A-listed for that long tho. Was that the Fall Out Boy single that stuck around for a bit making #48?, the album started selling with better week-on-week sales increases when that came out :).

    Good to see Biffy Clyro on the playlist!, hopefully they'll move up :).
  15. Marcus posted a post in a topic in UK Charts
    This isn't the first time, remember when they A-listed that Razorlight song that didn't make the top 40 for quite a few weeks?.
  16. Marcus posted a post in a topic in UK Charts
    Well, it depends where it charts in comparison to her others :).
  17. Marcus posted a post in a topic in UK Charts
    And a song by them that never tires!!.
  18. Marcus posted a post in a topic in UK Charts
    Funkybottom should be on there, but they'll prolly won't be as they will not be releasing an album and possibly just a few download only tracks, as it's after all a Feeder instrumental side project that's just for fun.
  19. Marcus posted a post in a topic in UK Charts
    Yeah, and Sugababes in support.
  20. Marcus posted a post in a topic in UK Charts
    Their only decent song!, glad it's doing well!!. People wrote them off, Kerrang! slagged them off after what was thought of as their short-lived stint in the UK limelight, now look!!! :D :D.

    Good thing too, but they should realise there's other types of guitar musicians out there who are not indie, and play them a lot as well.
  22. Marcus posted a post in a topic in UK Charts
    Holloways did chart pretty well tho :).
  23. Marcus posted a post in a topic in UK Charts
    The Kooks album will reach number one, but will sell poorly in comparison to the debut, and therefore be branded a flop.

    God, all it takes is one x-factor performance, while you lot are forgetting about her, and it's "I love Leona" this, "I love Leona" that. If she didn't make that appearance, all this tripe wouldn't have happened and you would have moved onto the next Cowell/Syco puppet. I can't see her surviving if she takes Will Young's route, by doing her own thing and snubbing Cowell.
  25. Typical <_<
