  1. CAN'T WAIT FOR THIS! Also pretty random I know but Cineworld cinema will be re-releasing Halloween (1978) for 40th anniversary. A special showing will be on Wednesday 10th October, check website and type it should be there.
  2. I can't stand the prick personally, but 'Jacob Rees Mogg' would be TV Gold if he ever went in.
  3. There is an old forgotten show that nobody seems to remember called 'Eerie Indiana'. The lead male actor was in 'Hocus Pocus'. I loved this when I was younger, it was first shown on Channel 4 in 1993 on a Tuesday ( I think?). It was repeated ENDLESSLY throughout the 90s mostly popping up in the school holidays/Easter/Summer/Xmas. I think it was last shown around 99/2000. It could easily be updated now.
  4. Unpopular opinion, but the answer is NO. I miss the days when chart battles were common and many new entries arrived, not just the top 10 but the in the whole Top 40 Chart. My favourite chart era will always be 1996-2003. One of my favs was in 1998, when Cher went to NO.1 with Believe, many new entries & Comebacks from older artists. That would NEVER happen now. :( :(
  5. Love all the above photos, an underrated one is 'Something to remember' album cover. Simple but elegant.
  6. I'm loving livin' joy climbing up, also it's 15 years today 1st Sep 2003 Black eyed Peas released where is the love? Who could have predicted it would do THAT well! And Dido returned that week as well.

  8. I wouldn't want to be Sam Smith right now, Jesus! :o :o
  9. One flew over the cuckoo's nest, Classic movie! Louise Fletcher who plays 'Nurse Ratched' is my favourite ever female performance in a film. Such an underrated forgotten actress who should have gone on to bigger and better things.

    I adore this show, each season is special and has something another one is missing. Season 4 is criminally underrated, so so funny. Season 5 may just be one of the best pieces of television I've ever watched, the arc from start to finish was amazing!

    Love 'System Addict' the middle 8 bit of the song is pure pop heaven! Stay out of my life is criminally underrated.
  12. Wow! Love the retros this week. 15 years since 'Breathe' hit the top spot. One of favs No1s ever, such a shock it was on Kiss Tv a bit before release but still surprise. 'Summertime sadness' one of my favs remixes.
  13. Off topic but next week will be 15 years since Blu Cantrell's 'Breathe' went to No.1. Such a surprise when that happened, I heard it months before it's release, and none of my mates had even heard of it!! I remember the week it came out and purchased it, saw the mids and was shocked when it was heading to the top. I genuinely thought it would go to No. 12 or something :P LOL and sink without a trace. It wasn't on radio that much prior to it's release as well.
  14. Well at least we have a million seller this year! 'This is me' is okay but 'From now on' is amazing! That song gives me chills, Especially seeing the scene in the cinema.

    Love a bit of Five star! 'System Addict' 'Rain or Shine' and 'the slightest touch' are my favs. 'Stay out of my life' is criminally underrated too! :wub: :heart:

    LOL at the TGS Soundtrack, it just keeps on selling doesn't it? At least there will be a million selling album this year. Could it do 1.5 Million by December?
  17. I don't care was one of my guilty pleasures, but yes it is largely forgotten, and that was a lucky No.1, I remember it dropping on iTunes after a few days, I think ed Sheehan 'thinking out loud' overtook it. I suppose she made chart history though, which still surprised me. After 'Crazy stupid love' hit No.1 she tied Rita ora/Geri there was speculation whether she could top it.

    I actually don't remember if radio 1 played it that much prior to its release I don't think so, but I remember seeing the video a lot on kiss TV music channel back when you had to call up for your fav videos. I remember reading the midweeks and being shocked at how well it was doing. I genuinely though it would peak at number #17 or something. LOL Yeah maybe Sean Paul had a lot to do with it's success, but it was still amazing the how well it did. I certainly didn't expect it to stay at No. 1 for a month, so maybe airplay on Radio 1 did increase. Lumidee was number 2 behind it, another surprise hit.

    God I loved 2003 great summer too, I remember hearing Blu cantrell's breathe months before and no one knowing what I was going on about. It was a surprise number one if I recall but I was so happy!

    Yep, TGS soundtrack definitely best seller of 2018 then! Xmas sales will drive it thru the roof

    Wow! Thanks for clearing up the Kylie situation, she also nearly made chart history a year before with the locomotion, but was thwarted by Yazz, by 2,000 sales. WK ending 6 August 1988

    Why did single sales decrease so much after 1985? After Jennifer rush there was no million seller until Bryan Adams in 1991. It can't be just because S/A/W dominated the chart so much between 87-89, but in 1984 I think there were about six million sellers, so something must have caused the decline. Also I noticed around 1995 and after songs debuted at no.1 with high first week sales than dropped, but contrast that to the 80s where songs climbed to no.1 than increased sales the week after. Why did Madonna never have a million seller in the 80's also? Can someone also clear up the issue of why "hand on your heart" by Kylie minogue didn't make chart history, I know sales were discounted because of cassettes but surely that problem should have been sorted out by the Sunday chart. And last one, why were Jive Bunny and the mastermixers so successful in 1989? They were the biggest singles act of that year, were people tired of S/A/W chart domination or something?.
  23. Not really a big release week because of tragic circumstances but the WK ending 11 Jul 2009, may have been a huge week for sales because of Michael jackson's death, so I wonder how the chart was affected that week. I wonder what new releases were absorbed by the onslaught on Classic Jacko songs.

    Also I hope Ariana can sneak in at least one week at No.1, but that seems unlikely now, one kiss will need to slow down and then something will probably replace that before Ariana, probably Drake will spring up again and speak 10 weeks, before knocking himself off again!:rofl: :lol:

    Could TGS soundtrack end up best selling album of 2018? It will eventually sell over a million, it's showing no sign of slowing down and Xmas sales will progress it even further. I wonder how much it will eventually sell?. What over new releases could give it a threat?
