New entries from No.41-75. See who missed out this time round :
The Meaning of Love
After all her huffing and puffing when she went to No.1 with heroff-the-back-of-Pop-Idol single, her second one is a definite flop.
The fat lady has definitely sung and she is out of the building.Given that Alex Parks’ second single missed the Top 10 and Fame Academy’sbeen shelved, plus that neither Ant & Dec nor Simon Cowell want to doanother Pop Idol series, and that Pete Waterman stormed off whenMichelle’s name was announced as the winner, surely that’s gone too?
Or “Busted Jnr”.
If you thought Busted’s music was trite then you haven’t heard the output from thepretenders to their throne, who have taken their name from the surname of Michael JFox’s character Marty in the Back To The Future.
This is the 2nd new single to go straight in at No.1 in a row:
- 1. Usher – Yeah!
- 2. McFly – Five Colours in Her Hair
