Legends already eh?
Song is going to be huge, album is going to destroy the world.

CRACKING song and the album is shaping up to be hot....dont think it will hit number 1
"According to reports, the single has currently outsold the current chart toppers Sugababes and their single ‘Push The Button’ by around 3,000 copies. Astonishingly, ‘I Bet You Look Good…’ is the Arctic Monkey’s first proper release – previous to this they’d only a limited edition single ‘Fake Tales Of San Francisco’"
Sugababes been out 3 weeks, that 3,000 is just the week figures after 3 so if another new single to drop this week sell 10,000 more than sugababes its no great feat its just the first week buzz..others released this week are
Blak Twang - Travellin
Backstreet Boys - Just Want You To Know
Alex Parks - Looking For Water
Olav Basoski feat. Michie One - Waterman
Lethal Bizzle - Fire
McFly - I Wanna Hold You
only contender there is mcfly...hope the AM hit the top spot...always good to hear a WORTHY track top the charts!
-
I think it'll get Top 3, the single buying public generally consists of people under 14 who buy singles on a Saturday. McFly and Sugababes will get good sales then, whereas AM will probably have already sold most of what they have the potential to shift.
Been raving about these guys for a good few months now, including on here awhile back.
-
yea i think i clocked it! dont think i replied tho...my bad..
Loving the tracks...
"Mardy Bum"
"Fake Tales Of San Francisco"
aint they got around 18 tracks leaked now? need to get them!
-
Original demo was:
Certain Romance
Bigger Boys
BYLGOTD
Fake Tales
Mardy Bum
Scummy
Dancing Shoes
Still Take You Home
They released Fake Tales on a limited edition single with a B Side called From The Ritz To The Rubble. The new single has a reworked version of Bigger Boys as B Side and an instrumental called Chun Li's Spinning Bird Kick.
Theres also a lot of old demo work, some of them are very bad quality, but there all are at least average songs, some are very good. Choo Choo, Cigarette Smoke, Curtains Close, Knock A Door Run, On The Run From The MI5, Riot Van, Space Invaders, Wavin Bye To The Train or The Bus.
Then theres songs that have you can only get live versions of. (Vampires, Stickin To The Floor and a couple more).
Cunts on Ebay are selling some CDs with 20+ songs on, even though all the songs are available for download.
-
Yea people do that loads...imma need to get all these though, missing a fair few! Thanks man, fingers crossed for the weekend then! ;D
Oh and Noel Gallagher will owe Jo Whiley £50 as he bet a band with a name like AM would never do anything succesful! ;)

Everything is on them links. The last two are from a recent Radio One show. The show was top notch and it's worth downloading.
-
I heard about what Noel said. Not at all suprised. Fair play to Oasis, they've been in the same position that AM are heading for. The might have to watch their crown though.
-
You are a fucking LEGEND! imma get all those now! ;D dunno what else i can do...but increase your karma...oula! - 200 ;D
-
Top boy might get a little pissed though eh?
-
Top boy might get a little pissed though eh?
who seer? na! im sure he wont mind...he may very will like the AM ;D
-
He knows of them, when I told him to download the demo he was too busy informing me about some ska/rap band, so not sure if he's actually heard them. He won't have much choice soon mind. Already heard the single on an advert, playing at HMV and Top Shop and it's getting bumped up on radio stations playlists.
-
:D
i had to download that 'I Bet You Look Good On The Dancefloor’ single for my mate.. just about to show my roommate/boss the song. think its his kind of deal more than mine
he was too busy informing me about some ska/rap band, so not sure if he's actually heard them.
Babyhead! only coz I saw em live.. its not the kind of shit i'd play at home really
-
Yeah the Arctic Monkeys are selling out gigs across the country, even before the single was released to the radio. Great band and I'm looking forward to the album, hopefully they stay around longer than the Libertines though.
-
Why even mention Libertines eh? Every review I read seems to have to include them.
Seer. Roomate? You mean in the office or have you upped sticks and moved out?
-
yeah at work :P still got some more saving to do before can buy a house :)
-
2 to a room at work. La dee dar eh?
-
yeah two or three to a room.. u cant fit more.. the building is basically an old (but BIG) standalone town house kinda deal.. so i'm probably in what was once a bedroom.
theres still a set of servants stairs hidden off to one side away from the grand staircase up the middle
-
Liar

-
lol.. i didnt say we had servants.. and we're not allowed to use those stairs.. when the guy that owns the company bought it the building was a wreck and he did it up over time in the first few years..
-

-
Stupid as fuck as you don't even have to be over 18 to see them here. I guess it's because of stricter alcohol laws...
-
