Are you on drugs? This is a group still getting top ten hits after twenty years and who don't actually get any radio airplay on stations that the single buying public (ie: Ver kidz) listen to.

Exactly and considering the lead form the last 2 studio albums missed the top 10 it is bloody decent!

Not just number 8 but the highest new entry
This all at a time when single sales are up hell of a lot.

Good news indeed. Congratulations to Neil & Chris for a great single. They deserved to have another Top 10 single.
So all the rumours saying that it was at #13 and #17 at midweeks were false.

Well done Neil & Chris !!!
Only 7 places upwards and then no one can believe their eyes.
Interviewer:
-What would you tell someone about yourself if you wanted to impress them?
Chris:
-I´ve got a 12-inch plonker.

Technically it is highest new entry as LL Cool J entered last week on downloads.

The presenter's career recap was a nice touch but I could have done without the snarky " very butch ... not at all camp " remark. Sigh ....
I like it here ~~ wherever it is ...
