Brits are "Flavour of the week" awards anyway. Orson for a start sums it up, and when The Darkness swept the board in 2004, what happened afters- NOTHING!!!.

Singles collection for me, then the defining debut album!!! :D.

The main reason I love buying Japanese releases: http://www.feederanorak.co.uk/Assets/Images/PTS_Jap_CD_Album_Whole_Package.jpg http://www.feederanorak.co.uk/Assets/Images/Thumbnails/PTS_CD_AND_DVD_Japan_Thumbnail.jpg Not long after the album made #2 in the UK this version made a respectable #59 in Japan :). The Obi-Strips are well really ace and unique looking :D, "Obi" is the Japanese word for "Sash" :) .

I'm an avid collector of Japanese albums, have virutally every Japanese album Feeder have released!!. I also have the UK versions, and then buy the imports!. Grant and Mark from Feeder were rather amazed and baffled I bought the Japanese import of "The Singles", when I gave got them to sign it after the Amsterdam gig last year! :lol:. It was the first one Grant ever signed!. As for Japanese albums, they're cheaper than UK ones alone, but shipping charges add onto it, but they well worth buying for extra tracks if you don't buy singles as the extra tracks are usally tracks that are B-sides on the albums singles. Like Feeder have done with their label Pony Canyon, "Polythene" though has no bonuses, and the album wasn't re-issued like in the UK. Instead the extra tracks on that re-issue appeared on the exclusive EP's you can buy over there, in which I have all of them!! D. http://www.hmv.co.jp/ is a great site, and there's an Oasis boxset exclusive to the country!!!.

He also gave me one of his drumskins from the same night!!

It was definetly one of the best gigs I've been to, and they finished on a cover of Nirvana's "Breed"!!! :dance: . During the gig, I was hit in the eye by one of Mark's flying drumsticks and there was a lot of blood, and so watched "Breed" from the side of the stage while being seen to by medics!lol!!. Luckily it was during the last but one song. The night after Mark came to the front row to apoligise to me, and I said "It's no worry!!" and said in reply "I'll get you again tonight!!" :lol: :lol: . Then during the gig every time he seen me he stuck one of his sticks in his left eye!!!! :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: .

I've got that on tape!!, they also show the soundcheck with them and that was between 5:30-6:00 on the day http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v102/Feeder_Guy/Feeder%20Warchild%20gig%20pics%202006/DSCF1777.jpg and this article was done with the two groups http://feederscrapbook.co.uk/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/thelondonpaperfeedersugababesreview.jpg

Sugarbabes are the only pop band I can think of who can perform on the same stage with a rock band and still sound great, and as good as the band. I seen them on stage with Feeder at Feeder's own gig, it was rather ace too and I was worried it was going to be bad.

Don't get me started!.

Hopefully it'll be gone, and they will return to the Kerrang! cult band they originally were and then vanish out of sight. That song don't go ANYWHERE!!, no wonder it's vanishing fast!.

Meck recently did a remix of "Buck Rogers", and it totally ruins the original. Still, it was flattering to see someone with a #1 hit be inspired by a Feeder song.

#1- 20 points, then one point less descending downwards with the #20 with just 1. 1) Feeder "Buck Rogers" ("I think we're gonna make it"?!, guys you HAVE made it thanks to this single, it also captured the imaginations of those who followed the UK rock scene, and hopefully still do! :cheer:) 2) Ash "Burn Baby Burn" 3) U2 "Stuck In A Moment You Can't Get Out Of" 4) Dandy Wahols- "Bohemian Like You" 5) Crazy Town "Butterfly" 6) Texas "Inner Smile" (Feeder outsold them the week "Buck Rogers" made #5, a band who at the time sold about 60,000 UK albums, beating a band with over 2 million tells an awful lot :cheer: ) 7) Gorillaz "Clint Eastwood" (someone I knew at the time thought it was Clint Eastwood singing a song called "Gorillaz" :dance: ) 8) Travis "Sing" (Who could forget the classic TOTP moment this song produced? :lol:) 9) Train "Drops Of Jupiter" (First heard this on TOTP's late night showing after a lonely night out, and it cheered me right up) 10) Stereophonics "Have A Nice Day" 11) Strokes "Last Nite" 12) Wheatus "Teenage Dirtbag" (kept of the top spot by that nasty Atomic Kitten song, but still gets played on music TV when the AK song hardly does) 13) Outkast "Ms Jackson" 14) Sophie Ellis-Bextor "Take Me Home" 15) Afroman Because "I Got High" 16) Kylie Minogue "Can’t Get You Out Of My Head" 17) Toploader- Dancing In The Moonlight 18) Linkin' Park "In The End" 19) Alien Ant Farm "Smooth Criminal" 20) Dido "Here With Me" Out of all these, I only like 18 of them, the bottom two are the best two from the lot I don't like. However, what a year 2001 was, I'll never ever forget it. Going to my first concert, and the band in question finally making their deserved breakthrough (that's Feeder!), and ever since then got bitten by the gig going bug!. It was at the Met Uni in Leeds on the 5th of April, and that week Feeder had "Seven Days In The Sun" out as a single!. BTW, how was this top 50 list compiled?, is it based on most radio/airplay/all-time list apperances ever since release or general popularity? :) .

The new rules have inspired me to start up a band, and get a single in the charts! :D. So of course the new rules are good!!!, as things are looking after last weeks chart, it looks like we won't have to worry about near to a year old watered down songs overstaying their welcome and becoming a thorn in peoples balls after all! :D :D :D.

Definetly FEEDER!!! . The album is being worked on, and the band will be in the studio this year to record it, and hopefully we'll see a new album in the summertime. I just love the way the band keep recording music they like, not giving a rats ar$e what the critics think. Feeder have their own original sound, unlike all the pathetic hype bands you get today, and you get sad lifeless critics slagging them off.

how about a rundown that I can copy and paste and send to my mates please :), they'llbe chuffed about this! :D. Every time Feeder tour we all club together and see them on every date, Grant Nicholas dedicated "Feeling a Moment" to us at their last gig of the year after acknowledging our week long presence! :D.

The best and most underrated live band in the UK, well done to em, they deserve every inch of sucsess in the world. This chart is more realistic, as as christmas time the sales figures are really large in December time and an album can still climb if it falls down the charts like a rock. U2:18 Singles only climbed above Feeder because of it's release date, Feeder was in May, but if Feeder released in December, they would have been top 20, like we see here :).

Koopa missed out on a #55 placing last year with their first single after a powercut messing up the chart system, the OCC then made up for this and added the lost sales onto their sales for the next week, and went something like 87-71. Their follow-up was a World Cup cash in :angry: , but thankfully failed to go top 75.

Best:- 4 U2 - Window In The Skies (not their best song at all, but the best of the weeks new entries) Worse:- 49 Ordinary Boys - I Luv U (why the fuss over this!?, it's really boring and goes nowhere!!)

My main concern over these rule changes, I second your opinion! :).

Exactly the same reason that afforementioned Nickel$h!te song got on everyones nerves.

My thoughts exactly!, SP will never better their 1998 debut album!.

No way!, in a few months time people will be B-O-R-E-D!. This song is the "How You Remind Me" of 2006/07

Absolutley stupid, the Gay Gordon song is 20 years old!!!. The UK charts will be the laughing stock of the chart universe, all very well and good representing everything that's selling, but "Monster" is old, old overplayed fodder, while "Chasing Cars" in typical Arrow FM playlist material.
