    • 73 Cantamus Girls Choir – Everybody’s Gotta Learn Sometime

Of this week’s highlights and lowlights…

Cantamus Girls Choir:
Everybody’s Gotta
Learn Sometime
[Cantamus]

73 Cantamus Girls Choir – Everybody’s Gotta Learn Sometime

Like the Choirboys, this is another Xmas cash in, hoping for some big salesout of nothing.

They haven’t got them, we don’t need another Winifred School Choir, so go away!

Santa: …Santa’s Grotto
[Santa Sings]

30 Santa – Is This The Way To Santa’s Grotto

One of the apparent contenders for the Xmas No.1, take the Tony Christietrack about Amarillo and make it all about Santa Claus, or Father Christmas,or that man who doesn’t really exist…

The Choirboys:
Tears in Heaven
[The Choirboys]

22 Choirboys – Tears in Heaven

Another of the contenders for the Xmas No.1, a dire version of the EricClapton song, done by choirboys at Xmas so they can play on the Aled Jonesvibe, as proved when they performed Walking In The Air on TOTP.

James Blunt:
Goodbye My Lover
[Back to Bedlam]

11 James Blunt – Goodbye My Lover

Terrible and more bland shite from this alleged singer-songwriter. One of the biggest songs of the yearwas his No.1, You’re Beautiful, and people play it at their weddings… despite it meaning somethingentirely different, since he doesn’t actually get the girl he’s singing about, and when it gets to the endof the video he’s so annoyed that he gets a gun out and shoots himself. Don’t see that one on TOTP!

Put both bland songs together and it makes you want to take the gun out of his hand, shoot Dido for beingequally bland, and then shoot James Blunt to stop him making another album.

Pogues & Kirsty McColl:
Fairytale of New York
[The Ultimate Collection]

3 The Pogues & Kirsty McColl – Fairytale of New York

Re-released as a charity single. Am I the only one who was never particuarly bowled over by this inthe first place?

And the TV censorship of this track has been odd. MTV and VH1 banned the word “faggot”, an old BBC2TOTP performance showed the line changed from “you cheap lousy faggot” to “you’re cheapand you’re haggard” and CD:UK banned Katie Melua from singing “arse”, but then she always doessing total arse(!)

Shayne Ward:
That’s My Goal

1 Shayne Ward: That’s My Goal *1st Week at No.1*

Nearly 750,000 copies of this have been sold, either by physical CD single or download, and all tocomplete and utter dickheads continuing to buy into the belief that reality TV extends beyond the show.

The fact is, those same people would’ve bought this whatever the song was and whatever the outcome ofthe winner of the show, so they’re not buying this for either the song or the singer. I despair.

This is the 11th No.1 to go straight in at the top in a row:

    1. McFly – I’ll Be OK
    2. Oasis – The Importance of Being Idle
    3. Gorillaz – Dare
    4. Pussycat Dolls – Don’t Cha
    5. Sugababes – Push the Button
    6. Arctic Monkeys – I Bet You Look Good on the Dancefloor
    7. Westlife – You Raise Me Up
    8. Madonna – Hung Up
    9. Pussycat Dolls – Stickwitu
    10. Nizlopi – The JCB Song
    11. Shayne Ward – That’s My Goal
