    I agree and hope you're right. People are buying CLG for shock value, not because it's a good song. So it should trail off in popularity really quick. It reminds of that dreadful Eamonn song and that woman who did the response back; both are tied with Ja Rule and that David Guetta montrosity from this summer as the worst #1s ever. Shame is not the best thing Robbie ever released, but I hope it gets to #1 to make up for some great material from the last album that should have been released as singles and potentially becoming big hits (e.g., Starstruck).

    I am happy that 60% of the top 10 is British. And next week hopefully higher with Robbie/Gary and Magnetic Man with Katy B. I am loving this dubstep music; so nice to have a new, fresh sound on the UK charts.

    For the Five Live EP reference, you forgot Britain's best female vocalist. Please correct it to: George Michael & Queen with Lisa Stansfield.

    Could you please explain how #8 on the radio airplay chart equates to "limited airplay"? Most artists would love to have that kind of "limited airplay." I Got You may not have flopped "badly", but the album didn't even re-enter the top 40; so it was clearly a fan-based single release. There's really no point in promoting a third single.

    The biggest selling TV reality show contestant is Carrie Underwood. Simon Cowell predicted it and he was right. Back to bashing: I am shocked whenever someone calls Leona Lewis hot or beautiful. I don't get it as she has such manly features in her face and no personality to distract her bad looks. And her yodelling is so annoying. I am very surprised that I Got You is doing better, but the album is not benefiting at all and continuing to flop big-time. Another awful singer is Jennifer Hudson. I hated her on American Idol and can't stand anything she (over)sings. She ruined And I Am Telling You I'm Not Going. I will never forgive her for that or like anything she sings. She pushes everything and has a very average voice.

    I will join the group calling Bleeding Love absolutely horrific. Even worse was her version of Run, where she ruined the amazing Snow Patrol song. In America, you can't go into a shop without hearing Better In Time, also so annoying and overrated. But that Forgive Me has to go down as one of the worst songs ever written, with just awful vocals and cheesy rhythm track; that was a wonderful week when people expected it to be #1 and it barely made the top 5. I'm so glad she's flopping now and she'll soon be completely gone from the world's airwaves. Here are even two worse singers if that's even possible: Avril Lavigne and Michael Buble. Can't stand anything they've ever done. And that Ke$ha person is ranking right up there with them.
  8. Here's another fact for you: 599K are the poor souls who received Echo as a Christmas present. I would have liked to see Echo's sales if it was released now or in the summer. Back to the chart: It looks like we finally have another new artist who will sell (and capture the public's interest) like Duffy. I hope Ellie's album has less filler than Rockferry.
  9. People are tired of Leona's voice, singing style, and songs. I'm sure her few remaining fans will continue to support her, but she needs to attract new fans which she's not doing. I Got You is out now and the album is going downward rather than back to the top 20. Her songs aren't high quality or even remotely distinctive or interesting. I really expected her career to last longer than two years, but she's finished -- unless there's a major shakeup with her direction, which I don't think will happen.
  10. Why will they waste money with a third single after I Got You flops. There's no buzz surrounding her anymore. Look at the disastrous chart run of the album.
  11. Hurtful is very ordinary. I recognise that he has a good voice, but this song is average, or perfect for filler on an album. A bit like everything Daniel Merriweather released last year apart from Red. Is Pixie Lott's Gravity a new song or a cover of the Coldplay/Embrace hit? I hope it's a cover.

    Agreed -- especially when it's by the worst singer in many years. Her songs even more disgusting and awful than Avril Lavigne's. Does anyone know where a truly talented singer and songwriter, Sia, is in the chart? Has she risen above the 600s?

    It's on Radio 2's A list, so it's getting airplay. Sounds great on the radio -- much better than the Jay-Z arrangement. I expect a big rise on the Airplay Chart.
