Of this week’s highlights and lowlights…

Girls Aloud: The Promise
[Out of Control]

56 (59) Girls Aloud – The Promise

Where’s the hook in this song? It’s as bad as Will Young’s “Changes” in that it just goes all over the place.

Click here for the video

U2: Get On Your Boots
[No Line on the Horizon]

50 (30) U2: Get On Your Boots

I heard them perform this at the Brits and it was a dreadful mess that doesn’t sound any different to Bob Dylan’s Subterranean Homesick Blues.

The video on the official link below is pretty lousy quality, especially given that it’s the official one.

Coldplay: Viva La Vida
[Viva La Vida…]

49 (41) Coldplay – Viva La Vida *1st Week at No.1*

Yaaaawwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwn! What a bunch of pompous, stuck-up arseholes!

The Saturdays: Up
[Chasing Lights]

48 (45) The Saturdays – Up

Ah, The Saturdays. Good to look at, and they were on Something for the Weekend recently. Watch here:

Click here for Part 4

Take That: Greatest Day
[The Circus]

44 (65) Take That – Greatest Day

Having been used on a yawnsome advert, this track is so tedious beyond belief Ican’t work out how it ever got made.

Beyonce: If I Were A Boy
[I Am Sasha Fierce]

42 (39) Beyonce – If I Were A Boy

I’m never a fan of her music and this won’t change anything.

Click here for the video

Leona Lewis: Run
[Spirit]

32 (55) Leona Lewis – Run

A cover version of the fantastic Snow Patrol track, but here Leona starts offtedious and then throws her voice around like Mariah Carey throwing a strop.Avoid.

Click here for the video

The Killers: Human
[Day and Age]

28 (27) The Killers – Human

Sometimes The Killers’ music can be a bit samey, and this comes across as rather a carbon copy of ‘Read My Mind’ but it’salways listenable so this is worth hearing, but not Top 5 material.

Click here for the video

Kings Of Leon:
Sex On Fire
[Only By the Night]

23 (22) Kings Of Leon: Sex On Fire

Great band. Not a bad track, either and great to see them at the top slot.Certainly more deserved than most things that get there.

Click here for the video

Lily Allen: The Fear
[It’s Not Me It’s You]

12 (7) Lily Allen – The Fear

“Look, my name’s Lily Allen. I’ve got a failed chat show and I can use the f-word in my songs, but hey, I’m on Myspace!”

Stupid mockney bint.

(sigh)

Lady Gaga: Just Dance
[The Fame]

11 (8) Lady Gaga – Just Dance

Mediocre pop.

Click here for the video

Kelly Clarkson: My Life
Would Suck Without You
[All I Ever Wanted]

6 (4) Kelly Clarkson – My Life Would Suck Without You

Mine wouldn’t if I didn’t have to hear this record.

This is teen pop pretending to be something better.

The Saturdays: Just Can’t Get Enough
[Up]

3 (2) Saturdays – Just Can’t Get Enough

A dreadful cover of the Depeche Mode song, but it’s for charidee so that makes it alright, yes? No, not really.

They were also on Something for the Weekend recently, on March 1st. Watch here:

Flo-rida: Right Round
[Mail On Sunday]

2 (1) Flo-rida – Right Round

Good God almighty, take an old Dead Or Alive classic and then just ramble a load of old shite over a backingbeat instead of writing any actual lyrics.

Click here for the video

Nessa, Bryn and Tom Jones:
Islands in the Stream

1 Vanessa Jenkins & Bryn West Feat. Tom Jones & Robin Gibb – Islands In The Stream *1st Week at No.1*

Rubbish comedy single put out for the world to buy. But it’s for charity, so that makes it alright?

Let’s face it. Gavin and Stacey was a very overhyped comedy. When it was good it was very good, but the rest of the time it was just “Meh”.

And Ally Ross had it right in The Sun when he referred to “Horne and Corden” as “Yawn and Boredom”. Their show is dreadful!
