Paramore

Exactly, she's had a run of poor performances and people shouldn't be blind to that. However, Lana Del Ray is in no way a pop princess or a pop star. She's more akin to Aimee Mann.

I don't think a chart number 1 list of Flo Rida- Good Feeling, Jessie J- Domino, Flo Rida- Wild Ones will reflect well on the music industry. For the sake of some variety I hope Cover Drive hang in there

Its a bit whiny but deserving of a top 20. However I don't see it impacting at all

Good for Sia, hit singles appear to be like buses. After a decade she'll have 2 in the top 10 at the same time

Is it just me or did MTV Rocks/Kerrang not support Incubus' last album? I know Scuzz had back catalogue shows for the band but that seemed it. The crap they're playing you would think they didn't have an option to be choosy What the hell is that Sonic Boom Six nursery school stuff? Last years Best British Rock act was the Joy Formidable

Its a decent enough pop song. :o I know! It gets a thumbs up from me.

Aren't they Irish? :blink:

Yes, it was the remix. Love Story was released in 2002, Love Story vs Finally was in 2003

Jaimeson- True is such a forgotten classic, as is Complete OvaKEqjdEGc Also, Layo and Bushwacka :wub: :wub: :wub: :wub: Infinite :wub:

I would love if they branded this as TOTP. There is no reason not to and the live lounge performances are perfect for TOTP2. Actually, why not just air it on BBC 1 or 2, all they are showing is Antiques Roadshow and the news.

You are right, its the single. This is the album http://hmv.com/hmvweb/directQuery.do?Ntt=b...mp;Ntk=Products

CD 24 0-10% Cassette Tape Over 80% CD 11-20% Downloads I clicked the wrong one on the last question. All my downloads are legal but I thought it meant how many legal downloads I had in my collection. So it really should be 100%

5 times a week is nothing. Music channels play the same songs practically every hour.

I actually like DeRulo's new song. I haven't forgiven him for talking over Robin S yet. :lol: Also, I saw Gotye get some play on MTV Rocks yesterday. Its starting...

I got One Touch the other day. Its so 2000 and refreshingly stripped back and underproduced.

So many memories here and so much greatness that has become overlooked in years past. Like Annie Lennox's 90's hits always overshadowed by her 80's career. Love Song for A Vampire and No more I Love Yous are some of her best. The Honeyz too are overlooked when they had more success in the late 90s than Destiny's Child did here. Finally Found, End of the Line, Won't Take it Lying Down, Love of a Lifetime were amazing, as were their rip off Fierce. FEj0y275ZXI

How so? I'm saying that radio and TV factors in massively to the popularity of songs as if people trust the station to determine the quality. The song Run is practically irrelevant here. Its a stunning song but it wasn't until Leona sang it that the mainstream took any notice. So yes, their better songs don't sell as much because their better songs don't get the same amount of attention. Magic plays Chasing Cars on TV, they don't air the band's current material for example.

In the words of The Killers 'Its indie Rock and Roll for me!' :D

Seems like blatant record company interference to me. Its distasteful rather than anything else, such a blatant campaign for number one. We can't blame them of course its just so bare faced.

Have you seen what the indies are putting out now? The indie chart is filled with crap no mainstream label would sign. Indie, in the old fashioned sense, means that its music that is more daring, artistic or specialist and the mainstream thought it wasn't commercial. Of course when the mainstream saw money in it they signed similar acts but the idea of the 'indie' performer remained. It no longer matters if you are on an independant label, its a sound that grew from the independant labels and that Coldplay uses and that publications like NME and Q perpetuate as 'real'. Coldplay in particular started with music that wasn't commercial. They started in an era of S Club/Steps and they were bringing out stuff like Yellow which was the complete opposite. Their music has electric guitar elements but most often the main part is the piano for the melody. Alt. Rock and Indie has a massive overlap though, you could probably consider Alt. Rock to make up 90% of the indie sound and Folk Rock the other 10% The difference between the people who bought Eyes Open and those who bought A Hundred Million Suns I should think. Chasing Cars has a radio effect that often just grows randomly. There is also a reason Leona's Run sold more than the original and its not the song. MTV Rocks played Michael Kiwanuka the other day! How the mighty have fallen. :cry: You have to feel for MTV Rocks, they have very little new and genuinely popular to play

I don't think you can call them Rock in the purest sense. Its not like they are filling up Kerrang. They are NME and NME leans indie. It was the indie crowd picking up Trouble in 2000 and they have become a bit Indie-pop

The video came out so long ago it seems like that whole campaign is over. Has she been on Jonathan Ross yet?

She's leaping on the eurodance bandwagon when she should be doing more Bad Boys/ Broken Heels pop.

It starts great but then does the same thing for 3 minutes
