8)

For some reason it replaces all my #8s with 'cool' smilies.
Let it be clear, I do not think Pussycat Dolls are 8)

That's because when you place '8' and ')' next to each other, you get 8)

Well go and buy it then! Yes, not all of us think Numb is the greatest PSB single ever but if it charts respectably enough, then we may get an Erasure-style January smash with Integral.
Well said.

I can only find the EP on iTunes yet the OS says all tracks will be available; anybody know what's happening?

Thats higher than what was probably expected but the worrying thing is there are only 400 units seperating 12 - 20. Numb wont teadily sell over the week. It will get caught up, unfortunately.

Thanks for the info Dazzer.

Because some of those morons are actually hoping Numb flops.

What it is Rent, is they like to hear themselves speak. Trying to look clever in front of a few morons. The same people who spend months saying a song is fantastic and should be a single, just because a few people before them said the same.Quite comical really. It was sad whe you use to come across this sort of thing in Junior school but these tossers are actually adults.

Exactly, pathetic. They should sod off and join the Westlife board or whatever shite welcomes those who are too far up their own arses. And take their flock with them.

The big Virgin on Oxford St is featuring Numb as it's main Single release of the week - about 10 facings of each CD, and 8 of the 12". I know there's not much else released this week, but it's still a bit of good news.
