craig 680 Posted December 21, 2012 Share Posted December 21, 2012 What was the last time a regular pop song was Xmas #1. Not an X Factor winner single, an anti-X factor song (RATM), or a charity single. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jase 13,065 Posted December 21, 2012 Author Share Posted December 21, 2012 What was the last time a regular pop song was Xmas #1. Not an X Factor winner single, an anti-X factor song (RATM), or a charity single. 2003, Michael Andrews & Gary Jules' cover of Mad World Without covers, it would be 2000's Bob the Builder :smh: Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mills 446 Posted December 23, 2012 Share Posted December 23, 2012 The Justice Collective's cover is quite really good. Hoping it would finally get that coveted #1 during the Christmas week. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
StrawberryBlond 14,264 Posted December 23, 2012 Share Posted December 23, 2012 Rooting for Justice Collective this week. James has already got his #1 with an awful cover of an awful song, so I'd like to see another charity get the limelight and not have another XF Christmas #1 because those years have slowly faded away and I'm glad to see the back of them. Juicy story about the writing of Scream & Shout: http://www.thesun.co...-and-shout.html Wow, that is downright ridiculous. Can't Tulisa not sue him for this? I'm sure the single would not have made waves worldwide if she had recorded it, but yes, to co-write a song, put it on the first draft of your debut solo album and then have a huge artist swan in and steal it off you is outrageous. It really shows how there's no shame in the recording industry. I've never been a huge fan of Will, and this has only cemented my opinion further. He may have had a right idea with some of his comments on The Voice, but ultimately, I couldn't take him seriously. How can someone who manages Cheryl Cole and claims she's talented possibly know what they're talking about musically? Will used to be cool but in 2009, he sold out hard and its been a slipperly slope ever since as he jumps on anything and anyone who's popular.

Jase 13,065 Posted December 23, 2012 Author Share Posted December 23, 2012 Justice Collective @ #01 with sales of 269k, James Arthur down to #02 with sales of 224k Emeli Sande is #01 in the albums with sales of 178k Her chart run: 1-2-1-3-2-4-3-5-5-6-9-8-2-3-1-6-6-6-4-5-5-7-10-8-3-4-1-1-2-4-5-5-7-5-5-9-2-3-6-7-8-7-7-4-1- [45 wks] I said it earlier in the year, but she's the new Adele.

craig 680 Posted December 23, 2012 Share Posted December 23, 2012 Top 100 albums: http://www.officialc...m/albums-chart/ Kylie #28, probably sold at least 175k to date. Which is ahead of both MDNA and the expectations of her record label for this project. Didn't know Neil Diamond was so big in UK. Rihanna has 2 old albums in the bottom of the top 100. I said it earlier in the year, but she's the new Adele. You know that's her actual name, she goes by her middle name Emeli to avoid confusion.

Jase 13,065 Posted December 23, 2012 Author Share Posted December 23, 2012 https://www.digitals...e-lovebird.html Heartbreaking. She's so talented. I don't know what went wrong. The lies about her album doing "really well" make the article even sadder. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
comrade 33 Posted December 23, 2012 Share Posted December 23, 2012 She has the voice, but otherwise Leona pretty much sucks, especially at performing. No charisma at all. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
