Maybe, but most of the artists in the US charts at the time were unrecognizable outside the US, but we still have a 40% share now of unrecognizable US artists but way down from the 90's and 00's....

i don't think having a chart full of bland hip hop/rap & country music that doesn't sell anywhere in the world except the US could be called innovation really.... while pop music from the UK was charting all over the world, (Five, Steps, B*Witched, Westlife, Solo Spices.....) the US failed to import any of their mainstream hip hop/ country acts which was ruling during that period... Garth Brooks is the biggest selling artist in the US for the 90's and he failed to sell much outside the US....

yeah but there are a lot of more talented UK rock/alternative bands that went unnoticed in the US, Levellers, Ocean Color Scene, Cast, Blur, Pulp, Manic Street Preachers, which all had really negligible careers in the US comparing to their UK & rest of the world careers....

yes but Take That and Five only had one hit each, so they don't have a "career" in the US... they had tens of great hits in the UK which could also have been US hits....

where is the video for Adele's Rumor Has It or Set Fire To The Rain???? :blink: God that woman is sooo lazy, she's the biggest selling artist in the world by far wothout any promotion whatsoever, no videos, rarre TV appearances.. If someone said back in the year 2007 that we would have 2 British Boybands in the US top 5 five years later, they would think it's an April's fool joke.... it's coming TRUE :cheer: I wish that the US would've been more aware of British talent at its peak in the 90's and early 2000's, they missed out on a lot of UK/Irish great boy bands such as Take That, East 17, Five, Boyzone, Westlife, MN8, 911 and solo singers such as Robbie Williams & Solo Spice Girls to name but a few.... not mentioning the amazing rock bands that emerged back then....

Amazing sales for Adele, I guess she's the one who saved the music industry the past 14 months thx to her 23 million albums sold at a time when most established artists struggle to even sell 1 million worldwide....

awful chart this week.... no interesting new entries...

huge fall for J.Lo !!!!

where is Girl Gone Wild???

will LMFAO stay on the chart til 2025??? i guess so, it shows no signs of slowing down!!!!

it's weird that Usher is in the top 30 now... he's not even in the top 40 itunes chart!!!!

i'm always right ;) Justin reached number 2... unlike what most of forum members predicted and all said he had it 'in the bag' :lol:

i didn't say that, :angry: i only said that it was nearly impossible for him to reach number 1 !!!! and even with his huge sales he was still far behind the number 1 song by Fun.

weird Madonna re-entries probably due to streaming.... Adele will maybe leave the Hot 100 in the next 2 weeks at the latest with 'RITD' and 'SLY'.... Justin Bieber would've probably reached number 1 if streaming and airplay weren't given a bigger share.... i guess everyone underestimated the changes!!!

That noise is by far the ugliest cheesiest noise I've ever heard in my life since Macarena back in 1996.... it's so annoying and irritating!!!!

Melanie C attempted a comeback last year with an amazing album and 2 amazing lead singles "Rock me', and 'Think about it' yet she was nowhere to be seen in the charts... i don't see how Geri could do any better with he next release, let alone a number 1 !!!!

Alexandra Burke will release her next single 'Let it go' on May 27th, so she might have a real shot ..... Alexandra Burke 'Let It Go'

Don't think so.... Top 5 maybe but number 1 very hard especially with the new rules.....

why is this song on the list???? it has vitually NO airplay whatsover and will not anytime soon....

The current thread includes the top 5 female singers chosen by Buzzjack users + a prize for the eventual winners.

The ones who win are the ones who choose the correct answer which is the UK female singer out of these 5 who will score her 4th number 1.... example if Alexandra Burke scored her 4th number 1 next month, then all the users who chose her ( the correct answer) will win. It's not about number of votes it's about voting for the eventual winner. It's not who you want to tie the record, but who u think will do it.

you can add 'All about tonight' to the list.....

and please can you all STOP voting in this thread and move to the other one.... Which UK Female Will Tie Geri Haliwell's record first?, Final Voting After First Eliminations. Five Final Contenders. Prizes.

and Pixie Lott has more talent in your opinion :lol: ????

Geri IS a gay icon whether we admit it or not... he music is 100 % campish & gayish , her videos are gay friendly & themed ('Mi chico Latino', 'Bag it up' 'Look at me' , Desire'.....) , her lyrics are even gayer ( such as 'Queer Funkin' on 'Look at me') , she even has a song called G-A-Y for God's Sake.... she was more of a gay icon than any of today's female stars 'pretend' to be, she even did her version of the ultimate gay theme 'It's raining men'... i'm sure she didn't know about the Margaret Thatcher comments.....
