New releases by Eurovision artists
Also a new release by Albina from Croatia this week. It’s called La La Love.
-
Laura Mvula - Pink Noise
I’m annoyed by how few copies this album has sold so far. People music tastes are so one dimensional. And the charts are too driven by Spotify playlisting. Still loving the album though!

Ed Sheeran - Bad Habits
I have blocked him on my Spotify. I didn’t know I could do that. It’s cool because now he never appears/plays from a playlist I am listening to.
-
Laura Mvula - Pink Noise
Really wanted this to chart higher. The album is magic. I have streamed it from start to finish at least once per day this week. Album sales are so dismal.
-
Will Young - Crying on the Bathroom Floor
Full agree. Clare Maguire such be so much bigger. Most of her Spotify listeners come from France. I think her song Elizabeth Taylor was a hit in France. Looking forward to Wills version of that one.
-
Zara Larsson - Look At What You've Done
This is such a bop. Loving it. It really should be a hit. But either way, I’ll be streaming this a lot!
-
Olivia Rodrigo - deja vu
Oh I really hate her voice. Since when does a mumbling, miserable, whoa is me tone, equal emotion in a song. Of course Olivia is not the only one to do it these days.
-
Zara Larsson - Poster Girl
I’m really loving this album. In fact I never paid much attention to Zara until the last 2 weeks. So she has gained me as a fan. I love the YouTube performances and also stream this a lot on Spotify. Would be nice if she improves from the No.87 midweek chart position. This album deserves so much more success!

Steps – 'What the Future Holds'
Yes it’s a little disappointing so far. Especially because I really like this album. It’s strong. I think it will take a re-release with some new tracks to drum up interest again because the best opportunities for single releases have been used now!

Ed Sheeran - Afterglow
He can keep it

3-Piece Groups
It has been mentioned already but Eternal were really on a roll until they messed it all up and fired Kelle. In their last year they had their first No.1 single and a triple platinum greatest hits. Then nothing. I’m still hoping they make a comeback. But as a 4 piece ;-)

Little Mix: The Search • Episode 03
I love how Little Mix includes a clip of Eternal as an example of on e of the best female vocal groups. They played a clip of Stay by Eternal and a clip of Survivor by Destiny’s Child. I love Little Mix even more now!!

Sarah Harding • General Discussion
Yes I agree Sarah always seemed more genuine and like an open book compared to the others. Nadine also. In my view Kimberly is a bit fake. Nicola has a superiority issue which bugs me.
-
Common song titles poll #1 - 'Stay'
Eternal by far!!
-
Fleur East - Fearless
Can I just say I am so proud of Fleur East and her new album Fearless. She has made a really quality album with fantastic visuals. Actually the videos this era have been better than any video Syco made with her! I feel she has put so much in to this album, and all done on an independent basis without major level backing. Then in the middle of the release her first UK tours gets cancelled due to Corona virus and her dad passes away on the day the album is released. I really feel for her now. Lets support Fleur and her music. Apart from the setbacks surrounding this album, the music remains quality. As soon as her tour is rescheduled I am buying tickets!

Fleur East - Fearless
Despite her career not taking off maybe the way it should have, people should check out this album. I loved her first album but didn’t like what I heard from this album so far. But overall I am impressed. It’s a strong and cohesive album in my opinion. Give it a try!

Louise - Heavy Love
I see Louise is headlining the Hull Pride in July this year. Glad she is continuing to perform after her solo tour and 9to5 stint in the west end. I actually like the fact that more new people are continuing to hear her music. Maybe she will continue to add to her small group of fans!

Louise - Heavy Love
Another album signing is announced for Thursday evening in Lakeside Shopping Center, Essex! Go Louise, keep promoting!
-
Louise - Heavy Love
I understand the opinion that it might be unremarkable. But in my view it just lacks gimmicks. I think it has strong production and lyrics and vocals. The collaborators here are strong: Raye, Karen Poole, Clean Bandit, Jojo, Sinead Harnett. It flows as a full album and I am loving it. Such a stronger comeback album that the half baked last albums from Emma Bunton, Alexandra Burke, Martine McCutcheon and others!

iTunes Album Chart ~ 2020
Go Louise! :P
-
Louise - Heavy Love
Radio 2 is being really good to her lately. Hurt is on their A List at the moment. I’m really pleased with that. Pity Spotify don’t add her on some even smaller playlists.
-
Mastercard - Merry Go Round
Well if Amazon arranges the Christmas number 1, I suppose MasterCard can have a shot as well!
-
Louise - Heavy Love
That’s so annoying! Anyone want to give me a UK address I can post some albums to! Is the sale based on the delivery address country or the credit card address.

How has Ed Sheeran managed to stay so relevant?
I don’t understand his appeal at all. In my opinion his personality is very fake and conniving! I find him very unlikable. Also some of his lyrics, songs and videos are awful. Meanwhile the UK has some fantastic singer songwriters that don’t get half enough attention e.g. James Morrison.
