This had the potential to do better but the promo has been crap. Why appear on several TV shows and not even perform? To the casual viewer of Saturday Night Takeaway they'll just assume it's a nostalgic reunion rather than new material. Then there's radio, I've heard it twice on radio, once was the premier on Radio 2 and the other was the UK Hot Top 40. Radio seems to be completely ignoring this. http://comparemyradio.com/tracks/Steps/Scared_Of_The_Dark

Rihanna released eight singles from GGGB: Umbrella Shut Up and Drive Hate That I Love You Don't Stop The Music Take A Bow Disturbia Rehab If I Never See Your Face Again And not from the album but in this era she also released Live Your Life. Rated R and Loud had six and seven singles respectively also, although not all of them hit the UK top 40 like GGGB.

-fXjDvs_ZLw Sugababes cancelling the release of this single is quite possibly the biggest mistake they ever made! Beautiful vocals, clever lyrics, very good song! I honestly think this could have saved the Catfights & Spotlights era. Also, since were on Sugababes ... Vrvw7TwVxmk

Kurt said he had never been kissed before. Wasn't there an episode in season one where Britanny was snogging the pants off of him?

Shakira! Not had a hit since She Wolf. Even 'Did It Again' flopped after an X-Factor performance (#21). Not to mention the official World Cup single (Waka Waka, #26), and a calibration with Dizzee Rascal (Loca, Didn't even chart!).

Sometimes there just isn't the right word to replace a swear word. Forget You just didn't have the same message as f*** You. On the other hand, I voted 'Don't Care'.

Remember seeing this a while ago ... Depeche Mode have had most Top 40 hits without making No. 1 (43 of them up to Apr 2009). In fact, they've never risen above No. 4. Billy Fury has spent 231 weeks on the Top 40. No other artist has spent longer on the chart without making No. 1. His best chart placing was Number 2 for "Jealousy" in 1961. Special mention must also go to Sash! who has made Number 2 on five occasions. No other artist has been 'runner up' with so many singles without ever making it to Number 1. (Jon) Bon Jovi has featured on twenty Top 10 singles but never made the number 1 position. Three hits behind, Janet Jackson has appeared on seventeen Top 10 singles without reaching the top spot.

On my iPod ... 01. Usher - Yeah! 02. DJ Casper - Cha Cha Slide 03. Anastacia - Left Outside Alone 06. Britney Spears - Toxic 07. Outkast - The Way You Move 08. Sugababes - In The Middle 16. The Black Eyed Peas - Hey Mama 17. Fountains Of Wayne - Stacy's Mom 23. Nelly Furtado - Try 24. Blink 182 - I Miss You 26. Keane - Somewhere Only We Know 27. LMC Vs U2 - Take Me to the Clouds Above 30. Kelis - Milkshake 39. No Doubt - It's My Life

Thats Not My Name was a successful re-release. First time round in 2007 hardly anyone had heard it. Then The Ting Tings released it again in 2008 and it went straight to number one! The single before that (Great DJ) didn't reach the top 40 until after the hype of TNMN.

Pixie Lott - Gravity (17) Steve Aoki feat Zuper Blahq - I'm In The House (Never heard of) Black Eyed Peas - Rock That Body (02) Cheryl Cole – Parachute (05) Inna – Hot (Never heard of) Justin Bieber – Baby (10) Lady Gaga feat Beyonce – Telephone (01) Paloma Faith - Upside Down (22) Rox – My Baby Left Me (Never heard of) Sabrina Washington – OMG (Never heard of) Eliza Doolittle – Skinny Genes (Never heard of) Keri Hilson – I Like (30) Scouting For Girls - This Ain't A Love Song (16) Shakira – Gypsy (30) Kate Nash - Do-Wah Do (20) Selena Gomez & The Scene – Naturally (Never heard of) Adam Lambert – For Your Entertainment (40) Alexandra Burke – The Silence (09) Chipmunk feat Esmee Denters - Until You Were Gone (03) Diana Vickers – Once (12) Marina & The Diamonds – I Am Not A Robot (29) Cascada – Pyromania (Not heard the song, but being a new single by Cascada, I'd guess 05)

Theres 2 in this weeks top 20! Halo/Walking on Sunshine, and It's My Life/Confessions Both by Glee :)

Dirtty and Beautiful were the same genre though, weren't they? However the sound from Come On Over / Genie In A Bottle through to Dirrty / Beautiful / Stronger (all very different sounds) then she quite literally went Back To Basics with an early 20th Century sound :) What about Britney? Christian Pop > Pop > RnB > Sexy dance music.

Ah right enough. Well that's two threads I've mucked up in so far today, maybe I should go have some ready brek :D

Ah I see, thought the OP meant from 1 single sorry :)

Last night the Children In Need single knocked the X Factor charity single off the top spot, which has me thinking, has this ever happened before? Have we ever had 2 charity singles in the top 2 before (or even the top 40? ... Is I Got Soul still in the top 40 for 3?). Was it a chart first yesterday? Thought I'd ask you guys, since many of you seem to know every chart record since the 1950s.

Surely the most weeks you can get in a calendar year is 52?

Wow at Britney and Shakira!!! I never realised My Humps was that big a hit worldwide.

2006: Sorry, No Tomorrow, Crazy, Maneater, Hips Dont Lie, Smile, Deja Vu, Dont Feel Like Dancing, SexyBack, Put Your Hands Up For Detroit, Patience, A Moment Like This, all very good songs (IMO) :)

Why don't they just wait a few years until Heidi has reached her expiry date, and recreate Sugababes 2.0 (the best IMO)?

Shape 30 Easy 30 Denial 31 Get Sexy 29 (cant remember the Shape video so not gonna judge it, and the Easy video makes me laugh, next time you see it watch Heidi trying to dance 'sexy' in the toilet cubicles near the end lol)

Amy MacDonald took a wee while to peak aswell.

Just looking through some of the world charts, how come it only seems to be the UK and Ireland that have MJ in their charts?

Surely Timbaland was featured in 74 out of 75 at one point in 2007 :P
