I can see it going to no.1 if we get to the semi final stages of the world cup...not that, thats ever likely to happen.. :lol:

Wheather a new Genre is ceated or not doent really make any diffrence. all music no matter from which generation has 'borrowed' music of past generations. e.g. rock n roll borrowed a bit from the blues and country music of yesteryear. Same as today new genres are being created like Grime music which borrows a bit from Hip Hop and some from Garage music. Technically no music is ever really totally 'new' as to Whether todays music is good or bad it is completley subjective.

it was 25th biggest seller of the 00's with over 750,000 sales.

Sales were low in 1992, even though ITS only made no.2 it outsold DD by a considerable amount. Even more surprising for ITS imo is that it even made no.1 in the US!

Good. I like Head Over Heels, their later stuff like Woman In Chains, Laid So Low and Break It Down Again are also good but often forgotten about. I much prefer Gary Jules version of Mad World, better than TFF version IMO.

106,000

Rufus had the original and the Dennisons covered it http://www.merseybeatnostalgia.co.uk/html/the_dennisons.html

this has now gone to no.1 in the US.

If this is an April Fools joke, which i hope it is. Lets just hope Mr Cowell doesnt get wind of this, you may just have given him a good idea

I did, for me their performance completley ruined the song, but for some reason the Judges liked it ^_^

tbf I think sfg are more than a teeny pop group, they write their own songs and play their own instruments, I'd say they were a credible pop group. Incedentally, TIALS at no.1 will mark their 100th week in the top 75 :o

Hush by Kula Shaker

It would be nice to have one of these campaigns to get something decent back intothe charts for a change :rolleyes:

She probably needs another 2m + sales to make the list, if she continues at her current sales rate, shell do that within a year!

the only one I can think of is American pie (don McLean/Madonna) which references Buddy Hollys death.

freddy mercury was the best frontman imo

Aha take on me went to no.1 after it was re-released.

Electronic music fans might be interested in the programme Synth Britinnia, about the uprise of the Synthesizer bands from Kraftwerk in the mid 70's to the Pet Shop Boys in the late 80's. It has exclusive interviews with Gary Numan, Kraftwerk, Phil Oakey, Neil Tennant and many more. Very interesting programme and well worth a watch. It was shown on BBC4 last year but you can still watch it on BBC iplayer. http://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/b00n9...ynth_Britannia/

I was surprised this hasnt made the charts already just purely on downloads, which I dont think means its going to a very big unfortunatley.

Fall Out Boys version of MJ's Beat It is good. Others Kiss Tom Jones / Art Of Noise With A Little Help From My Friends Joe Cocker Use Me Hootie & The Blowfish

I was only listening to The Letter the other week on YouTube aswell, because I'd read so much about Chilton and the Box Tops but never heard his music. very sad news :(
