Jedward have more musical credibility than this campaign does.

I was sharpening my quill into a dagger about the tameness of that campaign but that will do nicely readthefanzine

Re: For your interest
The charts are constantly manipulated by the record companies and the radio stations who decide who gets played and who doesn't
The way I see it - in the old days the charts were a reasonably true representation of what people were listening to (assuming the shops that compiled the charts were typical of course!) but illegal downloads have skewed the picture - the charts now only represent what the non-tech savvy and strongly principled are listening to. The stuff that housewive/husbands and grannies pop in their trolleys in Tesco.
But does it matter?
When it comes right down to it, it's only a sales chart, nobody cares what the best selling brand of beans is (except maybe Heinz so if we love a song should we care whether millions agree with us, or nobody?
It would be nice to introduce The Smiths to a new generation, so I will buy the downloads - but I don't really think it's likely to chart.

They have How Soon Is Now as a theme tune to a show. Can't remember which one though? Might be Ian Collins through the week?
I can't imagine George Galloway having him on his show?

I listen to his show on a Sunday (well, I as I don't have a telly, what else can I do!) and he uses the opening to 'Headmasters' Ritual' as a theme tune.

Yes, he does. I think it might also be him who uses HSIN after the news? I'm not certain though. Someone on that station does!

The bloke who used to produce the Alan Brazil show a few years ago, Gile-o (surname Giles) is a mad City & Smiths fan and he was always plugging the band - much to Brazil's annoyance
Maybe he is doing that show now?

I remember it well. Brazil isn't exactly known for his taste in music though is he? I've seen him out, pissed as a fart, with his daughter having to hold him upright. A bit like you that night I saw you in Albert Square
