TruBrit

omg am i getting old or what...lol i just about know half on the above two lists serves me right coz on the age thread i said i was over 70 and i feel like it right now

I'm more concerned that there are people out there actually buying Kidz Bop CD's.

Lynne

You and me both lolol The only reason I have heard of James Blunt is because I now listen to Horizon Radio out of Milton Keynes each day and they play a lot of his stuff. I am more of a David Gilmour fan and still think he looks better now than he did with long hair. lololol

I did hear the other week than one of the top ten UK downloads was a re-issue of Leo Sayer's Thunder in my Heart. Maybe, just maybe, some of the old CD's I have stashed away might be worth something. lolol

see all you Blunt haters I told he was a good un...on both lists

Lizzi

It's a fantastic album

elaineKB

Yeh I agree but got slated the other day after I had been to see him in concert....mind you that was from those who liked A-ha... :scared:

The new Neil Diamond album's actually really good, IMO. Rick Rubin produced it.

As a side note, anyone else think the Arctic Monkeys are extremely overrated? I can name at least five Brit post-punk guitar albums I prefer to that one (Bloc Party, for example).

britvic

LOL, I know whats all that about Even my 4 year old wants to hear the real stuff.

Bob

There not bad, and apparantly really good live...but yeah, slightly over rated...

Celsius

I'll stick my neck out and say that the US top ten probably have more scantily clad women in their videos... (with the exception of Kidz Bop 9)

MNole

The Mannilo video?

AdobePinon

...where's that negative karma button?

elaineKB
