Wooooo 3 in album chart! I think 15 is quite bad tbh but they're hanging on alright!

[Dan_]

It's not really, it got to number one a while back now and most would have brought it in the first couple weeks or already have the album.

You sound like my mum It was only number 1 three weeks ago!!! I didn't think it would go down so quickly. Like Patience stayed around higher up for much longer!

I thought it was about a month now? I guess Patience was more popular and it was the first single so not many had got the album by then.

I think they should've released it instead of shine, reach out would have been quite good for summer.

[Princess]

Omfg no I love Shine and it gave Markie a chance at lead. Yeah I wanted Reach Out too!Much more summery. I say it'll be after I'd Wait For Life as they have performed it a few times.

[Pipergun]

Quite predictable really.. with two artists with such huge fanbases as Shakira and Beyonce, they were bound to reach #1.

Can't say I'm a fan of the song - a bit bland!

[Bells]

I'm liking the Top 10! I didn't really expect Beautiful Liar to reach No1, but is a good song IMO - at first I didn't like it, then I got sick of it, but it grows on you. Simple but effective really. I've also heard the version where Shakira sings in Spanish, and Beyonce in English. I like most of the songs in the Top 40 and the Top 10 generally is pretty good as I mentioned!

Ooh and I actually really like Ne-Yo's new song, Because of You!

I realise there's less interest, as BB is currently on the go, but I thought I'd post the current chart positions and overall sales figures for singles and albums, covering 2007 thus far.

Gives you something different to look through when BB starts to get on your wick, anyway!
