    ERM WHY WASN'T FIRE NOT THE LEAD SINGLE??? It puts Elephant to shame. THAT SONG HAS #1 SMASH ALL OVER IT!

    To be honest, Elephant had #1 smash written all over it...but radio politics stopped it from reaching its full potential. :sleep:

    And Let It Go has number 1 smash written all over it too...but it looks unlikely that it'll reach there. :cry:

    I thought this...
    Fire is my jam, should have been released as lead.

    Daylight Robbery is my favourite from the album, judging by the samples. :)

    Since the snippets were released, it's all I've listened to... repeat all the time.

    It's such a feel good album and I have grown to love 'This love will survive' .... Reminds me of Usher - Without You slightly!

    Don't worry about The Silence, just Let It Go and let the album make you Oh La La, you'll be Sitting On Top Of The World once you hear it :p

    The only thing I disliked in that was DJ SMASH A B all the way through haha, and it sounded slightly autotuned... BUT the album version doesn't which makes me happy. I LOVE the song though, so so good! :D

    Thanks djc_22 for the rolling updates, I'm really excited about HOH, I think it's going to shock people with how well it will do (as usual), not sure about LIG though because its such a competitive week with Lawson and Gary Barlow plus the strong singles from this week and the week after release...still, i'm hoping for the best!!

    Meanwhile, that stylist has got to go like yesterday!! He's bloody horrible!

    No bother :)

    I'm a bit worried about LIG too. It needs to get a move on in the airplay chart but I think top 10 is guaranteed for it. Hoping for a top 5 though.
