The Chart Show (Plus DVD Extras) - 14/09/08
It is not often that an interview which appears on ChartBlog contains information which is genuinely fascinating, but did you know that people calling you by your middle name is something which tends to happen in the southern states of America? I did not know this. And speaking as someone who also has a back-to-fronty name - my first name is Andrew, believe it or not - I am thrilled to know that there is somewhere on Earth where my people can be free to sign cheques and get a driving license without getting blank looks from officials in ties.
Of course, if everyone in the south was also left-handed, that would be just about perfect, but that might just be too much to ask for...
Here's No.1 Chart Star Caleb from the Kings Of Leon with some other interesting facts, including one about beards which will BLOW YOUR MIND, LADIES.
=======================================
Speaking of unusual interviews, it doesn't really matter how good the Gym Class Heroes interview is (and it is, very good and VERY long), there's a bit within the first minute which overshadows the whole thing. All I can say is that, should she ever find out about this, a certain presenter's mother will have to do the time-honoured "Oh, REGGIE!" in a disapproving manner...
Oh, and if you wanted to know how Travis GCH and Katy Perry got togther, the full story is RIGHT HERE...

=======================================
And, almost as an afterthought after such interviewing excellence, here's Top 5 High 5...
And once again in talkywordingform...
1: Kings Of Leon - 'Sex On Fire'
2: Katy Perry - 'I Kissed A Girl'
3: Cliff Richard - 'Thank You For A Lifetime'
4: Pussycat Dolls - 'When I Grow Up'
5: Rhianna - 'Disturbia'

Ditto on the Flobots tune. That song kicks major booty!
