  1. And that’s the second half of the album gone. Evidence that the first half is better. Clara Bow and Guilty as Sin to go.

    I knew Lily Allen was the MAIN person I had forgotten, although Adele may beat her soon. Cheryl Cole, Leona, Susan Boyle (esp for an Xmas Album) my mind had went blank. I remember Sharleen's album went top 3 (maybe top 5) and now it's dawned on me that it hadn't done that well to begin with. It's been a LONG day! I just shouldn't think anymore tonight.

    Umbrella is already 31 on iTunes and Forget You is 54 and 59! That's better than what 90% of the Glee songs have done on itunes

    I love Lady GaGa, but HATE her new single. Number 3 is an amazing chart postion, no matter who the singer is. Getting to number 1 isn't easy anymore and only a handful of females, Kylie, Madonna, Rihanna, Britney & Beyonce have had more No 1 singles than her. Adele deserved it, especially coming off a second album, which only few British people have major success with (Paolo Nutini is the only recent example I can think of) I just keep remembering the flops (Kate Nash, Mika, Sandi Thom, Sharleen Spiteri) and less sucessful, but sold an okish amount (Amy MacDonald, Duffy, James Blunt, KT Tunstall) the latter two have seen their third albums sell less than the "underperforming second album" I hope La Roux & Florence don't suffer, but my favourite bands rarely get any top 75 album or singles, Saint Etienne, Ladytron, Metric & The Sounds. I went off topic. I'm sorry :puke2:

    What number is Gwyneth Paltrow Forget You combined? as it's number 67 & 68, she's also 72 with Umbrella. Hope both can make the top 40. I know it's Glee feat her, but she nails both songs IMO!

    This week's Glee songs are doing really well so far. I think a few may reach the top 40! :)
  7. Edele & Keavy from B*witched, or Barbarella's? The song missed the itunes top 1000. Suprised no one mentioned them. The Ting Tings haven't released the album yet. Duffy's album still sold more than Kesha, The Saturdays & Scissor Sister's. KT Tunstall & James Blunt, had huge albums back in 05-06, the 2nd albums for both did okay and now the new albums have done rubbish, probably because, like with Duffy, they wait too long between singles as well, doesn't help it at all.

    How come This Is The Life is back in the top 100?
  9. Duffy's album has done alright, not brillant, but after 4 weeks it's sold more than a lot of 2010 acts, Kesha, Scissor Sisters, Marina & Diamonds, The Saturdays etc

    Do you remember there used to be the HMV & Virgin on Union St as well? But that's the thing, there used to be so many different music shops MusicTrade, Silver Screen (In Buchanan Galleries, which was so expensive) Tower Records, Woolworths. They all seemed to be really succesful, before play.com and amazon took over.I tend to go to Cash Converters for DVDS (I got a lot of 2010 movies for £1.50 each) or Missing Records, as I don't care about second hand stuff, as long as they work! At this moment the only shops that I actually love are Cineworld (if that counts, I go there all the time) H&M, Waterstones, River Island, HMV & Debenhams. I can see all my favourites slowly going. I wonder if HMV may start taking notice and selling their things at a cheaper rate!

    I have the boxset, but I have a million things to watch and I fear it will still there for years!

    Anyone else a fan of Metric? I don't want else to say apart from how AMAZING they are!

    Does Stirling have a Waterstones? I go to University in Stirling and didn't even realise :w00t: I worked in HMV last Christmas & the managers were saying this may happen, but the one I worked in (There's three in Glasgow City Centre) was the 5th biggest HMV on Xmas Eve, this year & last, so I've been told it's safe, although I'd hate to see the Buchanan St one go as it's the 2nd or 3rd biggest one in UK, and then the small one has been there for about 10000 years and I don't want that to go either :( I used to feel bad for people buying CD's that clearly were so much cheaper online. Also, Fopp! is actually really cheap a lot of the time, or maybe it's just the one I go to :unsure:
  14. Graeme Colton's Best Days would be a great one for Matt to sing. Graeme sang it on American Idol in 2008. Shame the song wasn't released over here!
  15. Rachel was one of the best contestants ever!!!!!!!!!!! She should of won that year! I also find her attractive :wub: :wub: :wub:
  16. Actually, I have been coming here for over four years. I visit the site every day to keep up with chart news. I may not post a great deal but I do read a lot so I consider myself to be a regular. :cheer: Sabrina had said a few weeks ago that she would try to get it finished that weekend. I understand she's probably busy, but it has taken a long time. Also, I am not the only one wishing for it to be finished.
  17. Can you just tell us who won? as this is the longest results page in the world. It takes forever :unsure: :wacko: :cry:
  18. While I agree with MIA's claim against Ke$ha copying Uffie, although Uffie herself doesn't really care. I wasn't impressed with her dissing Lady GaGa. GaGa's music & image is what makes her stand out from the rest. I think it's unfair for someone like MIA to slam an artist who hasn't had time to adjust, GaGa isn't just a bubblegum popstar, she writes, plays piano & stands out from the rest. I know that GaGa will join Beatles, Michael Jackson & Madonna as a music Icon in years to come. I'm all for freedom of speech but in MIA's case it's just jealousy I feel. I also hope Janet can achieve a good position in this chart. Despite her music not being as succesful as of late. Janet was always my favourite Jackson. janet, Velvet Rope & Control are amazing albums and she has never got the hype or applause that she really does deserve. Despite Amy coming from the same smalltown as me. "Just a smalltown girl" she is another artist that deserves more recognition. I was shocked that despite her number 1 platinum album she wasn't up for any Brit Awards. I know she is bigger in Europe but she is defo unique.
  19. Wait, did I miss the voting??? Please Add my votes, I think Janet, Natalie & Debbie deserve some points!
  20. Where is Emily Haines from Metric? No Zooey Deschanel either :( She & Him rock. LeAnn Rimes??? It's quite upsetting when Alesha Dixon & M.I.A Beat Amy Macdonald, Jewel, Cyndi Lauper, Imogen Heap & Joan Jett 1) Lady GaGa 2) Debbie Harry 3) Natalie Imburglia 4) Janet Jackson 5) Kate Bush 6) Alicia Keys 7) KT Tunstall 8) Sia 9) Bat For Lashes 10)Alexandra Burke 11) Christina Aguilera 12) Kylie Minogue 13) Leona Lewis 14) Duffy 15) Katy Perry 16) Bjork 17) Rihanna 18) Nelly Furtado 19) Sarah McLachlan 20)Shania Twain 21) Shirley Manson 22) Dido I don't like the rest! Bitch Slap oh it's a toss between M.I.A, Alesha Dixon & Madonna. I'll go with M.I.A For being such a LOSER!

    Poker Face has had 64 weeks in the top 75. I assume she's in the top 10?
  22. Ghost posted a post in a topic in UK Charts
    I saw a thread a while ago about the artists with the most weeks in the top 75 chart. I wondered if there is a list with artists with more than 40ish weeks. Sorry, if this not in the correct section but this is where I saw the previous thread.

    I'm also glad she stopped randomly laughing in her music videos. I noticed with the early ones she would start smiling, either due to nerves or because maybe the director farted. Either way, it was off putting
  24. Ghost posted a post in a topic in Pop and Country
    She seems to do really well in Europe and has number 1 singles and albums over there. I don't know why she isnt that popular in the UK. I think this will do a This Is The Life and peak at around 27 but stay around for a while. (18 weeks TITL had)
  25. Almost been a week, I want to see the results!!
