  1. Just why do they call it Judges Houses when it's clearly not. :blink:
  2. I completely agree with you here on all counts. I only wish that New Boy Band had gone with them. My choices would have been: Only The Young Concept "New Girl Band"

    1970's singer-songwriter Lynsey De Paul died on 01 October from a brain haemorrhage. Aged 64. She had 5 hits between 1972 & 1977. Her most famous was her first - Sugar Me peaked at #5 in 1972 R.I.P. Lynsey http://worldcharts.co.uk/images/other/lynsey.jpg Here's 3 of her biggest hits Sugar Me htBfNPyKKoI Ooh I Do v1KtyU-MhqQ No Honestly kz06eCFF-oI
  4. Simon deffo made a mistake of keeping Stevie Ritchie - he clearly can't sing. Also Louie getting rid of Overload. He should have got rid of Blonde Electric or The Brooks. Best act of Louie's is the new girl group. They could be the next Little Mix
  5. I fully agree with you about Chloe - I thought it was great that she went and so disappointed when the snob was brought back. Also to replace Orla with her was even worse. Kerrianne is definitely the best for me. AS for the crowd - they'd cheer on any old rubbish.
  6. See their sticking with the 6 chair challenge for bootcamp this year.

    It's been confirmed that on the next series of The Voice - Rita Ora is to replace Kylie
  8. One Direction wannabees
  9. They passed this shit through and they rejected Amy Connelly - no wonder ratings are down. :puke2: :puke2:
  10. Typical auditions again this year. Passing some right crap and rejecting some good ones. No wonder they are losing viewers again. An example they passed that stupid guy who completely wrecked a great Queen song but they rejected Amy Connolly who could really sing but was just a bit nervous. Even the audience booed the judges when they rejected her. And that Italian guy who ruined one of my favourite Otis Songs. You could hardly tell a word. If they keep on at this rate they will lose another viewer.
  11. Well what would they do if there was a hit by a guy called Dick or a woman called Fanny or a band called the Blue Tits (which is a bird of course).
  12. I know it's absolutely crazy the word has a genuine inoffensive meaning. Why do we have to change things because of the warp mindedness of a minority. I was listening to Irish radio the other day and they said the bands full name.
  13. I hate all this political correctness. Prick isn't a swear word such as F**K or anything like that - it has a genuine natural meaning.
  14. Or even the official Top100 as it is now.
  15. This didn't happen even in the prudish 70s when the group Pussycat had a hit Well we all know what Pussy means in English slang Even the 70s sitcom Are You Being Served had a Mrs Slocom referring to her Pussy and that didn't get censored.
  16. Just why has the band The Prick been sensored in the UK. It's just warped minds. & stupid BBC My copy of the single has them as Lilly Wood & The Prick & Robin Schultz. http://www.worldcharts.co.uk/images/other/lilly.jpg True meaning of Prick by Oxford English Dictionary is: 1. Make a small hole with a sharp point 2. Pierce 3. To prick is an act of piercing something with a sharp point . 4. To make an animals ears erect when alert - (the cat pricked up its ears) So what's wrong with that!!

    On last nights new chart countdown Jameela got it wrong again. She said that Lilly Wood & The Prick got the highest new entry when in fact it was Maroon 5. She should have said Lilly Wood was the highest climber as it has spent 3 weeks on the chart and climbed from #115. If they don't want to mention anything outside the Top 100 she should have said that Lilly Wood is the biggest climber this week. She didn't even give them their full name as if there was no band. Their official name is Lilly Wood & The Prick & Robin Schultz
  18. Amy Connolly is back. What a voice. Her rendition of With You from the musical Ghost had me in tears also. Just as There You'll Be does since I lost my best friend in the world last year. Thank You Amy - you deserve to win with a voice like that.

    My faves are 60s & 90s 60s (especially from around 1964 on) music was just the ultimate and so diverse in its genres - with bands such as Beatles - Stones - Small Faces - The Who - Beach Boys etc and genres such as Motown, Soul & the Mod stuff 90's had brilliant dance music with Hardcore, Techno, Rave etc - admittedly mostly mainland Europe. 50's - just didn't get excited about any of the music then 70's - I thought the music was so bland and teeny orientated. Apart from Philly, Funk & the odd rock band or 2 that is. Punk was absolute crap. Best of the 70s though was Northern Soul but it didn't make it very far mainstream. 80's - best of the music was American Rock. 00's - was one of me least favourites due to all the urban and Rap rubbish. Just didn't get it at all.

    Ella Henderson is set to go global with her single Ghost. She is doing better than any X-Factor contestant that finished outside the final 4. - Good luck to her. She should have won X Factor that year not talentless James Arthur. Here's how she's doing this week. Either new entries or high climbers. Australia - 4 Austria - 11 Belgium - 33 (NE) Denmark - 15 Germany - 12 Holland - 55 (NE) New Zealand - 7 Sweden - 18 Swiss - 18
  21. Even the FIA are getting in on the act. They could even penalise Rosberg for causing a collision. What do I think should happen. All 18 points should be taken away from him. It's nearly all Germans doing it. Schumacher on Damon Hill in 1994, Vettel on Webber in Hungary, now Rosberg. Typical, they just can't stand losing so they stoop to cheating. I remember Prost & Senna at McLaren years ago but at least it was at the last race, not halfway through the season. Rosberg knows that unless he cheats, if Lewis has a reliable car Lewis would win in the end hands down. No wonder the team are furious, they could have had a 1,2 collecting 43 constructors points in the end they only got 18 which will cost them quite a few million in prize money.
  22. Yes that's what I mean - that record of best ever selling song by a completely foreign language single still stands today. In October there will be a unique chart prediction with this single which I will mention nearer the time. Also this week there is another completely foreign language single at #21 although by a British band and it is a foreign language cover of a Bob Dylan song that (in English) was a #2 hit for Manfred Mann 4 years earlier.

    I know we need a little more movement in the Top 100 right now but the movements in #1s is quite ridiculous. I much preferred it when some singles stay at #1 for 3 or 4 weeks or when they climbed to number one over a number of weeks like Nico & Vinz who've taken 6 weeks to get there. I hate this straight in at #1 or entering at peak positions.
  24. There 2 were records that were banned at the time by BBC in the Top 20 this week with these others just bubbling under the Top 50. 3 of them were reggae singles. Do you think records like these would still be banned 45 years on? You can check on the Top 50 HERE This was at #13 -- Max Romeo - Wet Dream vo3Mn4mDcLg This was at #18 - Jane Birkin & Serge Gainsbourg - Je T'aime...Moi Non Plus ---- This peaked at #1 and became the biggest ever seller in the UK for a completely foreign record. GlpDf6XX_j0 Bubbling under was this -- Rita - Erotica 0RnuLLS0Rhw Also bubbling under was this double A sider Soul Sisters - Wreck A Buddy o06Sne9aME4 Versatiles - Push It In mBqYnz09tfw Seems like 1969 / 1970 were the years of the banned as there were many more then than there are these days.
  25. This makes record companies a dictatorship as they are trying to tell us what we should or shouldn't buy or listen to. :nono:
