Same Difference 30 in the Music Charts
Looks like they are going to bite the dust as well as Leon Jackson. That is a shocking result for them. They opened up at 13 last week.

Never did like them two. They're just too cheesy.
The only ones who would maybe like them would be young kids |

They just aren't that good or popular.
You can only ride on the X factor wave for so long until utter mediocrity shines through, as was also the case with Leon,Steve etc. |

They really should have released an album and toured before now......I think they would have sold far more if that had been the case.

As much as I love them, there's no room for music like this anymore.

To be fair their single sales to get to No 13 would have seen them Top 5 many other weeks of the year - same is probably even more true of their album because everyone and their dog seems to release an album in the run-up to Christmas...
Can't say I'm not disappointed by the chart placings, but I think we should wait and see what the next single does. I think the album will be going in a fair few Xmas stockings too (sorry to spoil the surprise Mum!)

Am not putting them down but would they have sold as much if they weren't released in the Xmas boom period - most new release albums sell better one only needs to look at the sales this week and last to see that.

I do think you are right though it was most definately a good release date.

I thought they would do much better off the back of re-appearing on the X Factor. They're unlikely to have that big exposure again so makes you wonder how low future releases will chart as you can't see them picking up much airplay on the major radio stations or music channels.
I never did like them so hey ho.

They were hit with supply problems from the beginning of the week, I can remember reading that people were complaining that shops did not have the album in stock. I don't know how extensive the problem was though. And it still isn't resolved. |

They need to be on a TV show or something. How are their target audience (young children) hearing their songs?
Besides, the uber-cheesy pop kind of went out with Steps in 2001.. it's more electro pop now than anything... |
