iTunes Chart: July 2011 (III)
I am in disbelief! Such a waste of talent, especially at a young age and what is worrying is she's the same age as me! RIP Amy, my thoughts with your family and friends xx My favourite songs by her were "In My Bed", "F--- me pumps", "Rehab", "Back To Black" and "Love Is A Losing Game". Strangely enough I heard "Valarie" in the carvery I had lunch at today! I hope in tribute Amy gets a #1 hit.

I'd relax the rules for Christmas.......it's nice to see "All I Want For Christmas Is You" in the chart every year. We all know that Cowell rigs the chart, hence the multi-buy rule scrapped last Christmas. I am sure "What's My Name" or "Surfin' Bird" sold more than "When We Collide".

iTunes Chart: July 2011 (III)
The US does have an age limit with songs. I think we need this system in force as it's not healthy, especially acts who are trying to get into the top 40. Obviously it isn't the X-Factor as that hasn't started yet (wish it was banned), has it been in one of the soaps? Out of interest, where did that girl from hollyoaks (dont watch it) make in the I-tunes chart?

On a positive note......well done to Christina Ricci :)

Surely there should be an age limit with songs in the charts? It is silly. I bet the people who have downloaded this have the song three or four times. I think Apple should put a block on that IP or send a virus down their computer.....or do what they did in Azerbaijan one year and got people to attend a meeting for voting for a certain song.

Too true. I can see this on an I-Tunes countdown in 2051 when we're all getting a bit old.

It sums up the sorry state of the music industry. I can understand Adele, but BEPs puh-lease.

I think people need to have limits in how many times they download a song.....the dementia is settling in for some.

4th September Chart Battle
It'll be Leona.....funny how this will co-incide with the new X-Factor series starting. Plus Cowell has rigged it.

Now That's What I Call Music! 79
This is an improvement on the last NOW edition, but why is that slag Lady Gaga on there with Express Yourself?

iTunes Chart: July 2011 [I]
That Peter Andre song is a shocker! Was this played or performed on his show? I've heard it, and it's a very banal ballad. Jedward - well can't they f off to America? We don't want them here.

iTunes Chart: July 2011 [I]
At least "Louder" getting to #1 would be something decent as opposed to that tosser Jason Derulo's feeble attempt to make a song. What does "roll" mean? We've had "Roll Up" and "How We Roll". Is this street slang? Britney needs a top 5 desperatly. Makes me mad that slag Lady Gaga keeps getting hits.

Unreleased album tracks that could've been HUGE chart hits?
"Primadonna" from "Bionic" would have been a huge hit, and a good opening single too.

Unreleased album tracks that could've been HUGE chart hits?
"Ladder In My Tights" by Amy Studt would have been a top 5 easily. I think "All I Wanna Do" killed her commercial career in the UK. I agree with the Leona choices, especially "Outta My Head". I would also nominate "Lost Then Found". La Roux - "Colourless Colour" or "Tigerly" as that would have been better than the failed re-release of "Quicksand". IIRC didn't it do worse 2nd time round? "Lift Me Up" and "Vanity" from Christina's Bionic, especially as "Vanity" would have been a great second single after "Not Myself Tonight". "Cruz", "Infuation" and "Impossible" would have been perfect from Stripped instead of "Voice Within" "Hello" and "Whisper" by Evanescence "Maya" from THREE instead of "Caught Up In The Middle". "Karma" from Headlines instead of "Higher". OK, it would have been 2nd again but still.... "October Song" from Amy Winehouse's "Frank" "Strange" by The Feeling from "Twelve Stops Then Home". I think this would have done better than "Rosé" "I Did It For Everyone" from "Join With Us" and "Mr Grin" would have been a better first single from "Together We're Made" although there is still a chance this will be released. "Glorious" from "The Illusion of Safety" by The Hoosiers "Tell Him" from Shayne's Ward "Breathless" "A Better Man" instead of "Stand By Me" from his debut. I reckon that would have got him another #1. "Lover" or "Sparkle" from Sophie Ellis Bextor's "Read My Lips" instead of "Music Gets The Best Of Me" "f*** You" instead of "22" from Lily's "It's Not Me It's You" "The Walls Keep Saying Your Name" instead of "Won't Change You" from "Shoot from The Hip" by Sophie EB. That would have whipped Sticky Vicky's bony ass easily, especially with a big thumping dance remix. "Kidz" by Plan B off his debut album would have done OK, but there was no chance for any of those songs to make the top 40. "Mama" and "No Good" were the safest bets. "Love Is Pain", "Turn To Stone", "Rolling Back The Rivers Of Time" from GA's "Out of Control" instead of "The Promise". All three songs would have been huge. "Models" or "Swinging London Town" from Chemistry instead of "Biology". "Love/Hate" from "Sound Of The Underground". "Big Brother" from "What Will The Neighbour's Say" and "Girl Overboard" from "Tangled Up".

Sunday Chart Predictions
Honestly why are people buying a woman-beater Chris Brown's singles? I bet if the friends and family of the single buyers assualted a woman, they would cast them away and never speak of them again. Sickens me.

iTunes Chart: June 2011 (III)
I am being serious. We need to stop the R and B generic American rubbish from hijacking the charts. A jury will make the chart a lot better and stop crap going to #1.
-
iTunes Chart: June 2011 (III)
There is something wrong with the UK if Jason Derulo goes to #1 with such a lazy effort of a song. It's time 50% jury was introduced or even some sort of "seperation system" with the US acts kept seperate from the UK ones. Parade = enjoy life on the game as this song is a FLOP.

How come boy band/girl band still do well in the UK?
Korean and J Pop are very good and are of a high standard. Shame both countries can't enter ESC :(

Top 100 Singles/Albums + Compilations
I am aware of the album doing well, but considering they are rather popular and their songs are played to death, you'd think they would being doing better singles wise. It's the curse of Robbie's return.
-
Top 100 Singles/Albums + Compilations
Awww poor Olly....really thought he had a top 40 place in the bag with "Busy". Also, aside from "The Flood" Take That are not doing too well with Robbie's return aren't they? Congrats to The Pierces with #4 in the album charts.....shame they couldn't dethrone that slapper Lady Gaga off top slot.

Which national final songs would have done well in ESC?
Jamala sounds like a strangled cat. I don't think she'd have qualified or if she did make it, I could see her getting the same fate as Greenjolly and finishing bottom 5.
-
Which national final songs would have done well in ESC?
I think Zlata would have got the same score as Mika.....I think if Pridohko monster tried again, she'd have done worse than the god-awful "Mamo".

Which national final songs would have done well in ESC?
I don't know what it is, but Astin Min Einur reminds me of a poor mans version of Niamh's song last year. She is a good vocalist no doubt, but it leaves me cold.
