Have Funeral For A Friend really got that much momentum? Jeez.. I actually rather like them, but I'm surprised that they've gone with Escape Artists instead of the far better "Bend Your Arms To Look Like Wings".

Annoyingly, the charts are returning to some semblance of normality this week.

It's all happening in the albums though. Sort of.

William Bloody Swygart (mrswygart), Tuesday, 3 February 2004 16:45 (twenty-two years ago)

good god

stevem (blueski), Tuesday, 3 February 2004 18:09 (twenty-two years ago)

FUCK. I'm doing really well and now I've gone and missed this weeks.

Affectian (Affectian), Tuesday, 3 February 2004 18:28 (twenty-two years ago)

Midweeks seem to indicate a lot of this stuff either isn't out this week, or has missed the top 40. Or something. Oh, and poor Obie Trice.

edward o (edwardo), Tuesday, 3 February 2004 19:30 (twenty-two years ago)

I realise this is oft-queried slightly contentious issue but IS there a fairly reliable weekly midweek comment lurking somewhere specific on tha interweb? If playlouder decline to comment then I am forced to wait for popbitch or something and they don't tell you nuffin anymore

Alex in Leeds (Alex in Doncaster), Wednesday, 4 February 2004 10:34 (twenty-two years ago)

Posting a link to the midweeks might be a bad idea, no? But check your email, Alex.

edward o (edwardo), Wednesday, 4 February 2004 10:47 (twenty-two years ago)

STAR, many thanks sir.

Alex in Leeds (Alex in Doncaster), Wednesday, 4 February 2004 11:01 (twenty-two years ago)

God bless the UK music scene. The Ordinary Boys, who had apparently been selling enough to get between #20-#25, have had their single declared ineligible for the chart, since it has a free sticker, contravening UK Chart regulations, or something.

William Bloody Swygart (mrswygart), Thursday, 5 February 2004 14:58 (twenty-two years ago)

hmmf. And I would have been right about the ordinary boys probably.

Thank god for bonus rounds I say...
