^^^ Why the HELL are people still downloading the Susan Boyle 'tribute' when WH is out now?? are people that thick!!!!? :huh:

Happy just isn't a pop song, its more like a musical number imho!....album is really good though

:lol: bad mistake to allow the tracks (or maybe the video) to be downloaded seperatly!

Spice Girls - Headlines, No.11....C'MON IT WAS THE SPICE GIRLS!! their prievous lowest charting single was No.2!!! :lol:

Not daft at all. It's shocking that some people don't seem to realise (as it has been said many times in this thread) Ireland is NOT part of the UK, therefore any 'chat' about the UK charts, ie: UK CHART CHAT, does not include any charts compiled in Ireland. To be honest, whenever I wrongfully stumble upon the thread in question (it happens alot <_< ) I seem to walk straight into a war of words between two members of this forum, and not much else.....

Hope so, would hate the current No.2 to slip through to the top <_< In fact, that songs sudden appearence so high makes me wonder if Itunes is involved in some kind of rigging process!! :lol: <_<

Of course not, then in 2007 she was fresh from the X Factor! people where in antisipation for her debut and lapped it up. Now 2 years on, we now have the likes of Alex Burke, JLS, Cheryl etc, who have grabbed peoples attention and alot of casual fans/buyers would have moved on to the 'next big thing' it's not brain surgery...its POP music! But when all is said and done Echo is a great album and Leona still has a great career ahead of her - whether some people except that or not!

?? I find it laughable, how these people who don't like Leona, her songs, or anything about her, seem to be expecting her to match her previous 1st week sales! If these people dislike Leona so much, WHY do they even care?? The only people seeing this album/single as a flob, are not her fans, but people who (for some reason) have high expectations of an artist they don't even like!! :rolleyes:

I agree, I don't want it in the top 40! It seems a shame when on the week of an albums release potential singles get cherrypicked, ruining the albums lifespan! OMH hopefully will be No.1 in Febuary 2010!!

I am one that believes any Irish chart info, Itunes or otherwise, should be in the International forum. When the international forum was added, all French, US, OZ, Japanese..etc threads where moved over to their own (International) forum! why not Irish? I don't want to get all political/historical, but Ireland servered it's ties with the UK in 1949! we are linked by a language and geographical location, that is all. I personaly have no interest in the Irish charts, and I'm sure anyone who is interested will have no problems in going over to the International forum to view them? I'll just finish on saying, I mean no disrespect to anyone involved in the thred and all the work they put into it, but UK it isn't.

Its what they like to call a 'hidden track' :lol:

YES! this ^ The likes of Lily Allen/Calvin Harris/N-Dubz/Arctic Monkeys..and the rest of them that think they are somehow 'above' that kind of thing, secretly are waiting for THE phone call (that will never happen) I'm sure they'd jump at the chance and throw their 'artistic integrity' out of the window....for one night only <_<

Can't answer your question but, just heard this song and like it alot!! I always seem to see the names of songs and write them of, with this I thought "another take a bow" or "it'll have feat Kanye West/Jay-Z" BUT this is epic! quite dark aswell, is it about being kidnapped or somthin!!?? :lol:

I agree with this, the public tune in everyweek to catch the 'pantomime' and laugh at exploited, near on special needs people (maily audition process). Also big share of the audience watch just to join in with the conversation at work the following day!! Who-ever performs, from Beyonce through to Susan Boyle are just extras to the whole X Factor package! Still think they should give TOTPs another go though! Thursday nights again!

BRING BACK PRIME TIME TOTP!!! NOWW!

i think top 10. Alot of people won't know/remember the orginal and like the song, in all fairness a pretty good version tbh! although that is all she is known for here in the UK! (bar AIWFC) all her big selling songs have been covers!

Could be true! although I wonder why Simon doesn't just give the cash to the charity?? he can afford it! I suppose it's all part of the ego trip of the song counting as one of 'HIS' No.1 singles! :rolleyes:

Do we think this will have anywhere near the same first week sales as Hero last year?

Whats with the Jay Sean single cover?? the expression, looks like he's doin a chimp impression!! :lol:

Whos the girl from around 3:35 to 3:45? powerful voice, didn't know there was one that good! :naughty:

What is it with all these covers!? it drives me crazy! where are all the orginal songs? surely they could have got one quite suitible for this cause?? this is just another Michael Jackson cash-in as well! I hope to god Simon and his 'team' don't dig out another (well known) cover for the winner this year! :rolleyes:

^^^Same here, abit 'bargin basket' for my tastes tbh! but sounds interesting, maybe a growing trend?

Leona has done GMTV today, and has the Children In Need concert on Friday though ....will be a close one either way on Sunday! :w00t:

Leona Lewis can do no wrong in this country, so I wouldn't worry! Ive never heard anyone say anything but praise for her!

Really disapointed with Leona's lead from her new album! like the song, but it's no diffrent to Bleeding Love, with the *thump thump* in the background, its been done before! :rolleyes: Im sure the album has much better tracks why this?? sadly another case of trying to appeal to the 'mass' public - al a Robbie Williams 'Bodies' worst song on an amazing album in my opinion!
