Indeed, quite a **** year for music overall....

CharlieO 05-12-2012 05:07 PM

Go Lana :worship:

such a shame the paradise edition didn't stay top for long.
The songs would've done better if released on a stand alone EP I think.

Black Dagger 05-12-2012 05:19 PM

Paloma, mumford, coldplay <3

Rest can **** imo?

Benjamin 05-12-2012 07:18 PM

Wow, didn't realise music sales in the UK had been so bad this year. :shocked:

Would agree with you about Coldplay if Myloxoto wasn't so average

Doogle 05-12-2012 07:25 PM

Emeli is atrocious

Jake. 05-12-2012 07:26 PM

She really isn't imo

Well she has, as she is the biggest seller this year

She clearly has something, wouldn't have sold that many otherwise

Saph 05-12-2012 08:03 PM

as a singer, yes, but as a 'celebrity' she doesn't have much of a presence which is why some people don't really feel her

Iceman 05-12-2012 08:04 PM

I agree, she lacks depth. just another voice that'll be forgotten about in a few years....

Jake. 05-12-2012 08:05 PM

I'd rather she wasn't on every front page or news story on DS tbh

Me. I Am Salman 05-12-2012 08:13 PM

But that's the thing, she's EVERYWHERE

She really isn't? Never hear about her nowadays, it's all about GaGa wearing fur or Rihanna on her 7 day tour etc can't remember the last time I read a story on her.

Me. I Am Salman 05-12-2012 08:32 PM

Never hear about her nowadays? She was on X Factor the other week and will be on it again this week. She also performed in the Olympics twice. She's been shoved down our throats more than the likes of Rihanna/Gaga these past few months and it's unpleasant because the fact is she's boring.

Locke. 05-12-2012 08:36 PM

If it wasn't for how heavily she was featured on the Olympics Closing Ceremony it wouldn't really feel as if she was everywhere.

But either way, good old Jessie is the best one on that list :idc:
