Guest Hafo Posted September 30, 2007 Share Posted September 30, 2007 Yes, apparently poor Annie dropped off the Top 100 airplay chart. It's not as uncommon as it seems. Shayne Ward's management must be fuming. Sugababes remixes are a bit crap but loving the original song SO much! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted September 30, 2007 Share Posted September 30, 2007 Yes, apparently poor Annie dropped off the Top 100 airplay chart. It's not as uncommon as it seems. I've never heard of it happening before, but it has dropped from Radio 2's A list to nowhere at all!!! I can only assume it's to make way for the album being their Album of the Week next week. Whatever the reason, it's bloody odd. I mean, was airplay on every other station really that bad that Siouxise can sneak into the Top 100 based on a few plays (which I am DELIGHTED about, incidentally), whereas Annie slips right out ... Shayne Ward's management must be fuming. One can ONLY hope. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest northernlad Posted September 30, 2007 Share Posted September 30, 2007 Am I missing something in that airplay chart - wasn't Annie Lennox at number 29 last week? I can't even see her in that one just posted! No, she was at #29 the week before last. Last week she slipped into the 60's as Radio 2 diminished plays, and then off the chart entirely this week as they've dropped her. Mika was actually at #29 last week. I'm worrying the album may not make top 10. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm worrying the album may not make top 10. I've never heard of an airplay pattern like that before! What the fuck is with that? It's either the most brilliantly calculated plan ever or Annie and/or her record company have royally fucked off every radio station in the country over the last two weeks. I doubt the album will miss the top ten because there has been much more of a fuss made of it than over "Bare" but, when this campaign started, I really thought it had a shot at number one, and that is looking unlikely now.

Guest northernlad Posted September 30, 2007 Share Posted September 30, 2007 Yeah, I have NO idea what's going on. "Dark Road" does carry that another one of these from Miss Lennox?.... baggage, but to see it do this poorly is shocking. I hope this means her record co is planning a massive push for that "Sing" remix at the 'hip' stations. You're prob. right about the top 10, but to see her come out w/ even a 25k opening would be heartbreaking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Riverwide Posted October 1, 2007 Share Posted October 1, 2007 Sad to see Roisin take such a tumble in the airplay chart. She drops from 41 to 63. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fak Posted October 1, 2007 Share Posted October 1, 2007 consider there is hardly anything in the media about it m not surprised her album ma not do so well. its been ages since she released material and always too far apart when she does it. what have her last albums sold?

Guest Hafo Posted October 1, 2007 Share Posted October 1, 2007 Interestingly, Girls Aloud physical single was released last week and they only went to #21... its peak was #5 I think on the week of digital release. Not surprised since it's their weakest single to me (along with the customary cheap video!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Riverwide Posted October 1, 2007 Share Posted October 1, 2007 Indeed. It's a particularly feeble single. A very odd choice for a lead single to an album. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Hafo Posted October 2, 2007 Share Posted October 2, 2007 yay for Sugababes...they saved the credibility of the UK charts, which were dominated from US crappy artists... They also saved the charts from being topped by two of the cheesiest, most-wasted-opportunity songs ever. Don't know which one is worst, "No U Hang Up" or "If That's OK With You". Shame, since I think Shayne might have talent (besides the obvious one ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted October 2, 2007 Share Posted October 2, 2007 I don't mind going on record as saying that I think that Shayne Ward is absolutely odious. His voice has no personality, and he has all the charisma of a Top Man salesperson. I guess he's good looking to some, but I saw his "sexy" video this morning and it made me want to hurl. All those gazes to the camera, feeling himself up etc. Yuckity yuck yuck yuck. (That said, I did quite like "Next to Me"!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnnox Posted October 2, 2007 Share Posted October 2, 2007 Shane is a handsome chap, but he knows it. And that does not make him an attractive person. He's smug. His voice has range, but it's unbelievably emotionless. I don''t believe a fucking word he's singing unless it's 'I love myself, I'm fucking great, come shag me'. His videos are apalling, and the music, oh Jesus. This double A sided comeback is just hideous. They are like Usher b-sides. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

johnnox Posted October 2, 2007 Share Posted October 2, 2007 yes, Ward released CDs on same day as downloads to go straight in to number one. But failed.
