Monzo

I loved Jemini's Cry Baby. It sounds so good on CD, but live on stage it didn't, sadly.

I think France television considers to win and pushs Voila wherever it's possible. I'm watching TV 5 Monde Europe for years and this is the first time France is promoting its Eurovision entry there.

Nowhere near as good as Akcent's Kylie back then.

I'm curious: What did Tess say about Angela Merkel? Are they related?

Not living in the UK I wonder is this Michelle Visage lady so big that she manages to make an average Steps album track to top British iTunes charts...

Sadly, Jason had to leave Dancing on Ice.

Just curious: Are you still listening to Disco? I talked to a friend the other day who praised Disco as one of Kylie's best albums when it was released. I asked him which album tracks grew on him and which not, but he hasn't listened to Disco for weeks. I'm still listening to it almost every day, so Disco is still popular with me. What about you?

Not as good as expected.

I'm currently in season 2 and I'm still no fan of it. Even when Fosters characters are guest starring I'm not impressed.

Real Groove appears on German download top 100 for the first time. It's new at no 81. Say Something peaked at no 45, Magic at no 22, but no single reached official top 100 or bubbling under charts.

Dancing with a Broken Heart peaked very low for a brand new single. By the way Grat Under My Skin peaked at no 31, much higher than some official singles. Do sales for chart position of To the Beat of My Heart include every version on the EP or just single version?

Do you still care about Jason Donovan? Especially For You and Charlene & Scott are forever in my heart, so I'm curious how Jason is doing on new season of Dancing On Ice. Maybe he's going to release new music this year, but I don't want another cover album.

I remember I didn't like it back then, maybe I just had no connection, because it wasn't released in Germany. We had Your Disco Needs You including radio airplay, own music video and even tv performances, that was nice. I bought Please Stay as import back then. In recent years it suddenly grew on me, still don't know why. I guess most important fact about Please Stay is that it had Santa Baby as b-side.

89 has never aired on German tv, but makes it on British tv - strange world!

I just had to spoil myself. Looking forward to watch it. By the way, I enjoy Victor, but of course he's a character who has to go sooner or later.

Thanks for letting me know, even though I doubt that Folklore had more than 400.000 physical pre-orders back then, which could explain the big gap between both US album sales.

Do you think we get another single or is it already done? I wouldn't be surprised if we get a deluxe version next summer with a new single.

I'm shocked Evermore not even sold half of Folklore in debut week in the US. What went wrong?

1,21 million watched Valentina's victory in France, a big gain compared to 979.000 viewers in 2019.

Since Germany is participating for the first time, I'm here for the first time, too. France is my favorite, hope it wins.

Room 2012's winning song was great, same with Some & Any, but their albums are not that good. I didn't like "Shame" very much. "Hot Summer" made me a fan of Monrose.

Live versions of Come Into My World and Dreams charted at Spanish iTunes charts yesterday at nos 96 & 98. Too Far and Rainbow Prequel charted outside top 100. Any idea why?

Mel C did some (masked) promo in Germany. She participated in a new show called "Pretty in Plüsch" which premiered last night and was a ratings disaster. Mel C played the puppet diva and was voted off in round 1.

Monrose had a great run. I've always wondered why no UK pop act covered Hot Summer for the British market. It could have been a smash!
