    Forget Me Not 25+ Breathe In 74 - No Defence 17
  2. 'Place To Hide', with 'Trying Not To Lose' a close second. :wub:
  3. Silent Movie
  4. I think it'll debut at #5 but fall out of the top 20 quickly. However, things will pick up once the second single is released. Overall sales around 400k.

    I was just listening to this album today actually! Easily her best album. :heart: My fave has to be 'We Need A Resolution'. I also love 'Try Again', 'Never No More' and 'Rock The Boat'.
  6. Pink climbing again :D And Lumidee has released a new album- that's the first I've heard of it :o
  7. Beverley Knight only #84 :( It'll probably peak even lower than 'Not Too Late For Love' :(

  10. Seen the video quite a few times on the music channels now and the song still hasn't really made an impression at all. It's just quite forgettable IMO and not lead single material.

    Completely agree. I was a huge fan of 'The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill' but I hate her rap on this song. She just sounds really bored and it doesn't add anything to the song.

    "Like their Christian missionary parents, the musical careers of Natasha and brother Daniel seem governed by an agenda. Uncharitably nicknamed the Boringfields, they set out to replace frivolity with responsibility, quality and thoughtfulness. Dan's success lasted until his personality bypass stood out like a dual carriageway crossing a country lane. Not wanting to follow his passage back to Nowheresville, Natasha's 2004 Single Girl debut album was all attitude and full of personality. Natasha was a get-ahead role model for the 21st century female- the thinking woman's woman, the concerned single gal with a library of self-help manuals. Her success suggested a brave new world where WAGs stopped teetering on stilettos and B Girls on the corner quit chewing gum and enrolled for nightclass. Even Prince duly doffed his cap and her mission statement, Unwritten, steamed to the top of the American charts. Now, here she comes again. Whether she is "for real" or a calculating marketing machine modelled on the cleaned-up Madonna, Natasha's second album is the most self concious sequel in recent history. So you get what that suggests- ultra-efficient, well-crafted, skilfully-written, studio-polished songs about the dating game. You get funky, upbeat, think-while-you-dance-round-the-handbag groovers (I Want To Have Your Babies), acoustic confessionals building to a mobile phone-aloft anthem (Soulmate), philosophical nuggets to chew on (Pirate Bones) and a hint of naughtiness (Who Knows). Yes, even nice girls have temptations! True love versus physical hi-jinx- it's a toughie. The see-sawing beat and squeaky guitar solo on Who Knows allow Natasha to stop, adjust clothing and check her moral compass. And, as the late, great Kurt Vonnegut said, so it goes. Natasha is undoubtedly a shrewd operator delivering a designer pop masterclass. This year's model has brainpower which keeps pace with the body popping, running on super-clean eco-friendly fuel. Yet no matter how sharply her sights are fixed on 21st century success, Natasha often seems to have an over-earnest 19th century literary heroine's perspective. To make her music loveable rather than functional, she needs to lighten up. Perhaps a night- or 10- out on the tiles with Amy Winehouse is required. "
  16. Shoulda Woulda Coulda. It's one of my favourite songs ever :wub:
  17. I voted for 11-20. I think it'll reach about #6 or 7 on the physical chart but downloads will let it down.

  19. Reckon it'll peak at #6 or 7. I can't stand any of her other singles but I really like this one.

    Any predictions for first week sales? I'd say around 30-35k.
