Yay, it's about time! I don't live over there, but I sure was saddened that the Goo weren't getting as much love over in Europe.

HOORAY!

Wow Alex - that's fantastic!!

We've still been voting / requesting but didn't get much chance to listen to the radio yesterday. Do you know which show it was on - either the time or dj? It wasn't Ben Jones by any chance was it (from 7-10?)

A "smash" - that would be really something :nanner: :nanner:

Take care

Bloody hell!!! That looks like Music Week - THE music industry publication in the UK!!! :o :o If those figures are from the most recent edition (it looks like it - they're published weekly) then that's fan-bloody-tastic!

CMP Ltd is the publishing house that owns Music Week.

Oh boy, this is really exciting - we'll see if we can get any more info on this and post back later...

Thanks so much for finding this nmf016 - Music Week is usually a subscription only mag and we'd not been able to locate any chart info without the subscription.

Take care

Well, I'm glad that meant something to someone! It is recent, the load date was 2/17 and it is dated 2/19.

I got the article through LexisNexis. It may be because I'm on a college campus that has subscriptions to everything (except Billboard >:( ). I'll check back weekly to see if there is anymore news...
