The fat tw*t from Take That

[Rob_the_Saint]

Can't say I like him but he certainly got things moving at long last. Wish he'd stop scratching his groin though (eugh!). Pretty dire stuff up till then.

 

Hopefully the Who and Floyd will follow suit... more later!

[YELLOW]

U2 and Coldplay were OK but the rest were pretty average.

[Chubbhead EFM]

I thought Joss Stone did pretty well!

[EFM The Firm, The Voice]

Joss Stone would do pretty well with me <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />

[YELLOW]

Joss Stone, oh yes!!! Dido looked extremely fit as well!!!

[Rob_the_Saint]

Mariah Carey reminded me of a sausage (did her bum look big in that?). As for Who and Floyd, oh dear, have we really not produced any band of note in the last twenty years?

[Uncle Urchin]

hmmmm....just goes to show that you never saw them in their prime...musical genius personified dear boy.....there ARE none better and never will be....Daltry and Mason can still hack it with the best of R&B and pure rock...

 

I agree about carey but she does have nice bristols.... <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

[Electric ~soul~]

Quite right.

 

And I don't think rock music will ever see the likes of Floyd, the Who, the Doors, Janis Joplin etc. ever again.

[SteveP]

Floyd were offered $150m to reform, they said no.

 

Also gave the proceeds of their 1000% percent rise in sales to charity and David Gilmour, a few years back, sold his £3m house and gave it all to Shelter.

 

Good on them.

This weeks album chart makes interesting reading:

Keane up from 11 to 5

Mariah Carey up from 10 to 8

Razorlight up from 28 to 9

Killers up from 22 to 11

Joss Stone up from 39 to 16

REM up from 33 to 18

Pink Floyed Echoes straight in at 19

Scissor Sisters up from 45 to 25

Joss Stone (again) up from 49 to 37

Pink Floyd Dark side of the moon in at 41

Robbie Williams Greatest Hits in at 44

Snoop Dog up from 71 to 45

U2's Joshua Tree and Both best of's also in the lower reaches of Top 75

Pink Floyd wish you were here in at 65

Velvet Revolver in at 67

Eurythmics in at 68

Pink Floyd The Wall in at 74

Elton Johns Greatest Hits in at 75

All the Coldplay albums went down though <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

Even the singles chart got involved with Kaiser Cheifs up from 39 to 29, Razorlight climbing a whopping 31 places to number 30 and re-entries for Stereophonics, Kilers, U2 and Keane.

 

I do hope all these artists stick to their promise of giving the increased sales cash to Live8

[CANV EFM]

you can get in the singles chart by selling about 3 records these days.. going up 30 odd places will be about 40 more records sold..

still thats just about enough to fill the average african dictators merc with petrol so its is doing some good
