Oh my lol
Rihanna in her THIRD week (which makes her beating them even funnier)
I think its a terrible song lyrically, NOTHING compared to the singles the band released as a 4 piece in the last few years.
Yes - just because they thought a reunion would be great doesn't mean the rest of us have to fall at their feet and let them wallow in what would have been a mediocre No. 1
I do think Only Girl (in the World) is overrated mind you
Rihanna for the WIN!! and its her 3RD WEEK hahahahaha Shame take that
Glad that Rihanna held on to number one. It's a great song.
He did!
(not really)
I don't understand... What's funny about it? And why does it serve them right?
probably because the poster is one of these Take That fans who aren't happy that Robbie "Harbinger of Doom,Bringer of the Oncoming Armageddon" Williams has rejoined their happy little foursome
cant see why its a major big deal myself,for me the song didnt get to number one because it wasnt quite frankly a strong song,far too safe a choice
It will be interesting to see their sales figures for Progress, which in terms of pre-orders is on course to be their biggest album yet. I doubt they care that Rihanna kept them from the number 1 single slot, since they will trounce her and all the other competition with album sales.
They will make far more from their tour than the album anyway. Either way they will make millions each in the next year.
I'm more concerned as to what it says about the UK record buying public that such an awful song as The Only Girl In The World by such a terrible singer as Rihanna has been at #1 for three weeks.
Rihanna's song is designed to appeal to the mass of chart-obsessed kids who go crazy about these generic 'club-pop' songs which are sung by big names, whereas these days Take That mostly appeal to album buyers who care about the music and couldn't care less about the singles chart.
Watch and see how much their album sells this week.
Not enough frustrated middle-aged women rushing out to buy the single then eh?
Glad Rihanna is no. 1.
I agree with this. The song just isn't good enough (but the performance of it last night, I must admit, was very good). But as a song in itself ... it doesn't matter if Rob or Gary sang it ... its just very bland and does not stand out at all.
The album is a lot better though.
