I love SOF and USB, but my gosh, over a year they've been there now. Wow.

:O

It's playing on the radio chart show now as i type.

So it reached a low at 95. What happened that week to turn it around?

Jamie Afro performed it on his Xfactor audition, i think that ties in with the timescale of that uplift

I like (and own) both songs, but I really don't get how people are so out of touch that they didn't like/buy them a year ago!

Taz93 · 08-11-2009, 17:38

It's going to be there forever!

Neighbours_Fan · 08-11-2009, 17:43

I have liked both songs since they were first out, but I don't own either of them.

Yea, I'd have thought that if you like it that much, you buy it when it comes out. It's not like you could miss it, it was number one.

Not everyone buys singles when they first come out, not everyone listens to the charts for their guide to music. It is quite plausible that people are discovering it through other means.

However, I bought the album shortly after it got released, just like the other KOL albums.

If they only bought it because of the X Factor then it's quite likely that they do buy their music based on the charts.

I always wonder how songs do so well so long after their released, there was a whole year in which they could have been bought. Its kinda funny really lol

leigh183 · 09-11-2009, 12:04

No, after Jamie Afro sang it is when it went back up to 6th.

ScottishWoody · 09-11-2009, 16:57

Festival season?

I've kind of wondered this too, like when a song is at number 1 for 10 weeks, how can sooo many people wait so long to buy a single, sure people don't hear it til later on, but surely after 3 or 4 weeks everyones heard it and new releases should take over.
