Agreed. Tinchy Stryder's unpopularity at the time (Seriously, he had two flops in comparison to what he had with the previous album) stopped it from going higher. It also didn't help that on the charts it was listed as "Tinchy Stryder featuring Chipmunk". And Chipmunk totally destroyed the song (in a bad way). His verse didn't fit with any of the song, similar to Hitman on the single version of Forgot about Dre

The reason, I believe, artists like Cher Lloyd get this kind of hate is because they're manufactured by the show. Then again, for example, another x factor 'loser' Olly Murs has established himself pretty well. I think she made the wrong decision with releasing 'Swagger Jagger', awful song IMO simply because of the low lyrical value and the similarity to the christmas carol 'Little Donkey'. 'With ur Love' is a lot better. However, no offence, but like many artists in a similar position to her, expect her to be totally forgotten by the start of album 2. A lot of users on these websites have registered names with Joe Mcelddery and Diana Vickers in them, and regret it now. If she wants any longetivity, she needs to do more rapping. The UK needs a female rapper, not another pop singer.

Ah, Pro Green, I love your song, but it doesn't beat Earthquake. I think the reason Earthquake is universally loved (in my opinion, seriously everyone I know loves it) is because this has been a year of slow ballad after slow ballad with a little bit of predictable pop here and there. This song is so... so called for at the moment. Needs to be number one for a couple of years.

It was half term for some kids last week. Still, I doubt that would have anything to do with his climbing, it's just the stupid fans.

They've listed the Bieb as 'Chesnuts roasting on and Open Fire' TERRORIST BIEBER.

The Pre Orders for Coldplay's album would count as orders BEFORE release date (itunes does last 48 hours, so they're already 'counted' if you like); as its been so high for so long, you have to add a large amount of sales. Maybe everyone who wants it already has it. Also, other websites are doing it a lot cheaper, and a lot of people will simply be buying a physical copy.

Bré, they're both good songs, and while I prefer Earthquake, it would be the best top 2 this year by far.

A few weeks ago I said Labrinth's single could get less radio play because of a major earthquake happening near its release, and wow, I was right. Still, no disrespect to those who died in Turkey, but it's not on the scale of Japan or Haiti, so it won't hampen his sales. Back on topic, I think the X factor will seal a number one for Professor Green.

Don't forget the EP though.

I don't mind Green or Labrinth at number one tbh, both excellent songs.

Without the RAAI X factor slot, I think Earthquake could have edged it, but as it is, RAAI will completely dominate.

I have a huge fear that a major earthquake is about to happen, which will mean that Labrinth's single won't be played. I mean, it happened with Little Boots...

POWER getting close to it's original peak.

Come on Power! Have it on full volume right now. It COULD make top 40 if people start to discover it. MBDTF was just a complete masterpiece. If a more popular artist in the UK released it, it would have had a run like Adele's 21. Kanye's done himself no favours with his public issues (Taylor-Gate) but he showed that his musical talents INCREASED. Probably the best rap album since his own College Dropout. Would be so happy if Power went top 40, because it would climb if it did.

Every Teardrop is a Waterfall.
