oh look, im back but not much has changed chart wise! fools............ put a stop to this madness!!
Gah.. still.. this is ridiculous! Last week of Umbrella SURELY.. what's out this week Fraser? Something that's going to kick it, I hope? You used to put a list of a bunch of songs that were coming out in the next week or so with the chart.. how come you stopped?!!
[I got bored. Plus the downloads thing makes it well nigh impossible to keep tabs on what's out on a week by week basis. But if you check the recent reviews, they've all got release dates on them. - Fraser]
DARN YOU AND YOUR UMERELLAAAS TO HELL!
OMG ! STILL number 1 ?!! Well, i guess with the weather we're having at the moment, people NEED umbrellas... I love the song, but please go buy a real umbrella next time and let someone else get to number 1 !!!
ooh maybe that's it! Maybe REAL Umbrella sales are being counted towards the music chart! What a silly error, someone should let them know!
I kinda like that rihanna is still number one.
It's actual chart history now, and it's not being played all the time so it's not really that annoying.
Wouldn't it be great if Rihanna was number one for longer than Whitney Houston????
i dont understand it, even the people (such as sev) who 'love the song' want 'someone else get to number 1'. so if the people who like it, sorry, LOVE it, dont even want it to be up there anymore, how come its there?!?!?!?! ..... GAH!
i really can't believe it! umbrella again! seems like the only song that's gonna top this song is her new single..." shut up and drive"....
of course this means that rihanna will be entering chart history ...and everyone is very happy about that...right...um...at least in theory...
what this song proves is the fact that simple,catchy sell-able music ,not necessarily good music has taken over the charts and implicitly over people's cd collections.
i'm not saying that we should ban this sort of music or pretend that it does not exist...no...it;s fun to hear..i agree with that...but i think it's a bit of a shame that 10 years from now we will say" rihanna who?".." what umbrella?''...yet this success will be present in the history books...
oh well...at least she'll get incredibly rich during the process ...and will lead the way for other songs made with two instruments to be sold in millions of copies...oh goodie...i feel better already:(
Dora: what's wrong with songs made with two instruments? Some songs are great with only one instrument - just a guitar/piano/...hurdy-gurdy?
You don't really need ANY instruments - just a singer - though I can't think of any chart-topping unaccompanied songs...but, well...there's still time!
(Had to get that off my chest!)
