UK Christmas Number One

[Dunenewt]

All I can say is the Best song didn't win, it came second

The Darkness song was far better and it was a proper Christmas song. Madworld was just depressing. :-

I lose more and more faith in England every time I see this horrendous lists :P

[Dunenewt]

Have you listened to The Darkness song? It's amazing! I blame it on the Scottish :P

[Inoculator9]

Clan Stewart declares ware on Newtsilvania! Darn it Newt, I'm Scottish :P But, personally, I blame it on the Welsh ;)

[Dunenewt]

[Inoculator9]

"The Darkness song was far better and it was a proper Christmas song"

Just because some people happen to be celebrating a religious festival, it doesn't mean that all music has to be centered on that event. Do we demand that the No 1 at Diwali be centred on the festival of light?

Well some people prefer traditional Christmas songs at Christmas, not some screeching row of an excuse for music.

I often wonder if it's a status thing that people pretend to like crap just to be trendy.

The standard of singing these days is so poor, that live ,they sound like my neighbour in his bath, crucifying some song or other.

Come to think of it, most so called singers do,don't they ?

Bad singing is one thing, but there are some supposed 'artists' who sound less like a bathing neighbour, and more like one of those elderly ladies who can complain bitterly for hours on end - in the same, constant tone of voice, without taking a breath.

The most important part of music is tune. If you have something to say, tell us clearly: say it, write it, type it, just don't try to sing it!

Personally, I rather like some of the more traditional christmas tunes... 'O come, O come, Emmanuel' isn't bad, and, more recently, 'Walking in the air' has become a classic.

[Atomic Mitten]

I agree Nema, alot of so called top artists sound montone.

I must admit I like a very large range of music indeed,I like the Eagles for instance(New kid in town),

I also like Johann Sebastian Straüß,I like Boris Gardiner, UB40,Dusty Springfiled,Eric Clapton,The Beatles,Atomic Kitten of course(heh heh), I like some house,soulmusic, R&B, some country, Phantom of the opera,in fact almost anything, Queen(Bohemian Rhapsody),

I'll be here all night If I were to list them all,Wigfield,Aqua,Luther Vandross,Boney M,Gospel choir,

South African music.

How about some others embarassing themselves here in this thread.lol :)

[nampigai]

Wigfield ? that's the danish girl with the song Saturday night, right?

honestly.....Atomic, I'll just shut up...

[Atomic Mitten]

Why ? I prefer sexy eyes from wigfield,track 3 on the maxi CD.I used to be a DJ in Germany so maybe that's why.

[lowzeewee]
