  1. where are the Ting Tings in the midweeks???? it's unfair that they're not top 10 their album is so amazing ..
  2. I think it will sell between 600-650 k which is amazing in the current sales climate
  3. sales are so bad the past 2 years, especially at the lower end of the BB Hot 200 that sales at the number 200 in the BB Hot 200 current albums spot is selling less than 1000 copies, which is really alarming... i think the album market is dying fast and there's no way to save it, most of the albums are leaked online 2 weeks b4 their release, so ppl just download them for free, only a few actually pay for them, not to mention very few remaining CD shops who only stock the most commercial CD's... so critics should stop labeling artists as flops since all current albums are labelled as flops compared to the year 2000's standard... if an album manages to sell 200k copies nowadays, it should be regarded as a success... even Taylor Swift and Adele's new releases will struggle to sell a quarter of what their last album did...
  4. i think The Wanted are being treated very badly by the UK public, most of their songs are instant pop classics, even 'Walks like rihanna' even if the lyrics were corny , 'Show me love ', 'We own the night' and 'Glow in the dark' all sound great, and way better than most 1D or 5SOS songs which are both far more popular.... 'Glad you came' and 'I found you' are absolute classics and 'Chasing the sun' should've become their second top 10 single in the US...
  5. Meghan Trainor's All about the bass is probably the 1st top 40 hit ever not available for sale...
  6. Bright Light Bright Light's new single An open heart is a pop masterpiece same as his last single 'I believe', too bad he's completely ignored by the music buying public...
  7. anything Kylie releases will flop even if she performs it at the X factor final.... radio refuses to playlist her.... Into the blue and Crystallize just prove that no matter how much the songs are good she will never get a hit, even less now with the inclusion of streaming as a chart component...
  8. i can't believe Train, Moko and Amelia Lily are flopping while the lame Ten walls and Chris Brown are in the top 10!!!! what happened to British people's taste in music?
  9. hopefully Amelia Lily and Moko can make it into the top 40.... that Chris Brown song is dreadful, i'm amazed at how successful he still is despite the bad quality of his songs (except Fine China which was good) ..... didn't know Tina Arena is still releasing records... :D
  10. That's so sad to hear since Moko's Your Love sounds like a modern day house classic such as Robin S's Show me Love, Amelia Lily's California sounds like the perfect pop song but she probably needed more exposure...
  11. do Amelia Lily and Moko stand any chance of making the top 40??? i love both of their songs...

    i hope Moko Your Love and Amelia Lily California do well.... both amazing songs..
  13. I don't think the problem with Rita Ora not succeeding in the US is down to her music, we've seen hundreds of worse artists scoring number 1's in the US... Rita wasn't well promoted, she hasn't performed as a lead artist in any major US show, and i'm sure 'I will never let you down' would've been number 1 if it was performed by Rihanna... they need to work on her US promotion, Roc nation did a lousy job so far, same as what they did with Kylie...
  14. And also Do you know what it takes which also reached the top 10.... I'm sure there are many solo swedish females who made it into the top 20 in the noughties as featured artists....
  15. Oasis did it with their debut album Definitly Maybe back in 1994 with 6 singles... 'Supersonic' 31 'Shakermaker' 11 'Live Forever' 10 Cigarettes & Alcohol 7 Whatever 3 and Some might Say 1.....
  16. it's a shame Indiana missed the Top 100 especially since it's in the top 75 on sales alone... such a good song
  17. It's such a shame that Chris Malinchak's amazing song 'Stranger' missed out on a top 40 spot because of streaming... it would have been at number 32 otherwise....Streaming has officially ruined the chart :(
  18. 7 song by UK artists in the US hot 100 !!!! that must a record.... great news for British artists worldwide... Hopefully we'll see a lot of new UK artists doing well... i think next will be the Vamps and Ella Henderson.... Unfortunately Katy Perry seems to have chosen the wrong single, hence the flop of 'This is how we do' it's not doing well on sales and streaming and airplay seem to be shy... 'Walking on air' was the obvious choice.... 'Unconditionally' should've been scrapped or left as the 5 th single...
  19. too bad especially since 'Lay me down' is her best song followed by Heart Cry which was left unreleased despite having a music video...
  20. very bad choice again, whoever chose the singles from the past 3 albums should be sacked.... Singles like '2 Hearts', 'Get outta my way' and now this abonimation that is 'Million Miles' should've not been on the album let alone chosen as singles.. 'Les Sex' ans 'Kiss me once' are the only single worthy songs on the album and they've been totally ignored... such a shame...
  21. she's nearly 40 so she's not suitable for ageist US radio.... see what also happened to Mariah and J.Lo, they used to get loads of airplay, now nothing...
  22. just when the UK are starting to become fast and interesting again, the streaming inclusion will make it as slow as the Billboard Charts.... such a shame...

    I can't believe the 2 best songs on this week's chart have charted so low: Kylie's Crystallize at 60 ans J.Lo's First Love at 63!!!! the download era has killed any career prospect for female singers over 40.... such a shame.... such amazing songs..
  24. Kylie Minogue up to 29!!! Hope 'Crystallize' gets the recognition it deserves.... such an amazing song!!!
  25. 221.Kylie Minogue-Crystallize now Kylie up to 159!!!! get that Top 100 smash Kylie!!!! :dance:
