I think I would have been surprised if Girls Aloud went to number one with this song really. I like it but it's not their best. Top 3 would be good.

With the cover being quite different, I thought the single was going to be a new sound but it's not.

It's a great track, i reckon number one. It amazes me how this woman bangs good tracks out one after another. Everything she touches turns to gold.

When i first heard this song i thought it was appaling. After the first listen and on very loud, it's actually quite brilliant. I thought it was generic but it isn't, it has something extra.

Having said that, quality does not account for chart positions unfortunately and judging by the poor success of notorious, i think low top ten 7 or 8.

Anyone who thinks this will get to number 1 is crazy. The saturdays are not number 1 artists, not anywhere close.

Maybe she hasn't been informed that her songs are now sold through downloads and not only through physical CDs in Zavvi.

 

She seems pretty clueless about a thing or two.

She's an international artist who's working really hard on promoting her album globally. I think we can forgive her for maybe not quite understanding all the release dates etc.

It doesn't surprise me really. The internet is perfect for music. Infact in a lot of cases, you can pre-order a cd and you'll get it in the post before it even comes out in the shops. And it's usually cheaper online and you don't need to make a special trip just for a cd. HMV will probably go bust soon.

Makes you realise how much we were being ripped off a few years ago when a new album was £14.99 in the shops.

Is the video out?

Yes, i think it's been out a while.

:rolleyes: Why are people happy when things go bad for a person? It shows a side to a person that is truly horrible. I'm not planning on buying the song, and where the song charts has no effect on me, but I wouldn't be cheering if she flopped. -_-

I don't think it's quite as serious as trying to sum up someone's "sides" as such. If you really dislike someone, it can be amusing to see them flop. That's all.

I'm not really a fan of elton but his version of this song is much better than ellie goulding, and the version from moulin rouge is even better.

Really surprised how well it's doing but good on her i guess.

I bloody knew take that would do this. There was no way they weren't going to make this song no1 at some point, they always go to no1 with their lead singles.

I bet they are no1 come Sunday

Maybe because this is te 2nd thread today you have slated rihanna in, that singer you are a 'big' fan of. Don't hide behind the 'i like X artist really' crap, your disdain for her is obvious by your posts, at least others are honest on this forum about not liking rihanna.

If they say they like Rihanna, they like Rihanna. Just because they don't like everything she does, doesn't mean they are a hater. I don't like everything my best friend does but that doesn't mean i hate her <_<

The power of black eyed peas is crazy! Is it it even on radio/tv???

Its playlisted on r1 but i don't think it has a video yet.

7 voted #1 :o I'm surprised by that, quite a spread out poll.

I cant remember what i voted but people probably voted 1 because it's Rihanna.

Or maybe people are bored of hearing middle of the road ballads manufactured especially for radio airplay. Just sayin'

Have to say, i agree with this. And i actually like take that.

The sample is ok but the rest is pretty bad. It's not horrendous but it's not exactly catchy either.

If they are on x-factor, probably No1 as they do have a big fanbase who would probably love crap like this. Without x-factor, i'd say top ten.

I like how everyone is amazed that mcfly have got into the top five on itunes - wow, how could they have a song that does well on downloads? lol

Nice to see Rihanna increasing. I hope she makes no1 for a second week.

Every release turns into a desperate need to attain a chart position seemingly out of their reach.

I agree, why do they have to over push everything?
