Dido has now zoomed to #3 and the standard is #35!

Albums Dido Girl Who Got Away (Deluxe Edition)

Yeah they're not on the playlist anymore, but I know Dido was on the A list for almost 2 months so they can't play it forever. As well, I wouldn't base the sales on iTunes, as Didos last album only peaked at #7 on iTunes yet reached #2, so it's not a clear indication. The majority of her fans (75%+) would buy her album in stores other than download it.

Dido's one of my favourite artists. People who say she's boring get on my nerves. If Dido is boring, then what about Adele, Coldplay, Ben Howard etc? No Freedom is now #140 on iTunes, so I really hope she can get another top 40, as I think with the right promotion it could do pretty well. I just hope she'll promote the album over here when it comes out so she can get another #1 album. Edit: As someone's said above, it's now #131 lol!

Destinys Child's new album is out on February 4th, not March 4th.

Wait, include Dido's new song No Freedom as well. It's out on 25th February, and was Radio 2's record of the week last week!

I really hope that my pre-order will get to me! I ordered the new Resident Evil movie for the special price of £6, and it's out next week, so hopefully i'll still get it.

^It's at #11.

Well talking about older acts who don't really release much music anymore, the brand new single from Dido will be premiered on BBC Radio 2 tomorrow at around 11am!

Yeah it is true. The person who's posted them has never been wrong.

Just heard where their Greatest Hits album has charted. I'm not gonna say where, as I don't think we're allowed to, but i'm surprised as it seemed to be quite consistent during the week.

Yeah, i'm giving cases where I think the other artist should be given more credit for the song. It doesn't matter if she had success with Thank You, it's just like Emile Sande with Professor Green, she only sings the chorus but she's given credit as well as Professor Green.

It annoyed me that I was watching the repeat of the UKs favourite #1 singles, and Emimem and Didos Stan was on there, but they only credited Eminem. I don't agree with that as it was Didos song which inspired Emimem to write the rest of the song. I voted yes if the input was good enough. For example, with Dead Ringer For Love, Cher comes in on the second verse, sings on the choruses and then does another solo part, but she never really gets given credit for that song. It says in the guiness book of singles and albums, it features Cher as an uncredited co-vocalist which I think is ridiculous, she should have credit for that song. She helped Meatloaf get his first top 10 hit here in the UK.

But still, Cher's age has never been a problem with her selling records and having top 10 hits. We'll have to wait and see what happens!

Again, i'm really surprised that not many people are supporting this. This seems to be the only site where quite a few people don't think it will do well. I think people are forgetting how successful Cher has been here in the UK. All of her albums since 1987 have been certified at least Gold, so album wise she should do fine, but I also think the song will do pretty well. Right now, I think people are underestimating this song.

But The Music's No Good Without You wasn't the best of songs, especially as a lead single but that managed to reach #8 over here, so there's a chance this can do better.

I'm surprised that not many people think it will do well. This is her first single to be officially released since 2001 so there will be some hype around her new album. Lots of people are already saying that this song is better than anything from Madonna's MDNA album. I'm gonna say between 2-5.

Sorry about that, it should be just the one option, I must have missed that part :blush: I wondered why it said 6 votes but loads had been selected!

Yes please Martin! Thanks!

I've just done another topic with the poll in, i'm not sure how to merge the two threads though? Anyone know how?

Cher's new single will be out in the US from Monday. Where does everyone think this will chart here in the UK? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_gXAZ-wvNtU

Cher's new single will be out in the US on June 18th, with her new album out on September 24th! Where does everyone think this will chart? _gXAZ-wvNtU

Is it just me, or is this song not very good? It doesn't deserve to be #1. It should get in the top 3, but I don't know if it will be #1.

But if you look on Amazon, the deluxe is #46 and the standard is #45, so not very good. She will need really good in store sales, to secure a #1 album. On Play.com, the deluxe is at #59 but the standards at a better #5.

I understand Bo not being in the album chart as there's only 5 songs on there, but wasn't Tyler's album #6 on iTunes? That's a full album so why wouldn't that feature in the chart? And it costs over £5 on Amazon, so it's not a budget release. It would have been nice for Music Week to mention how well both releases fared in comparison to Leanne's single!
