Less than two weeks to go, and not much of a fanfare at all.

Mind you, my local high street record stores have both sold out of the new (not quite) Amazing single in a day!

Album tracklist:

1. Patience
2. Amazing
3. John and Elvis Are Dead
4. Cars and Trains
5. Round Here
6. Shoot The Dog
7. My Mother Had A brother
8. Flawless ( Go To The City)
9. American Angel
10. Precious Box
11. Please Send Me Someone
12. Freeek! 04
13. Through
14. Patience (reprise)

Fourteen tracks? Not bad for GM, though three are singles (inc a remix of Freeeeeek!), one an extra version.

I sense Morrissey's album will be better.........................

got the single "amazing" the other day... listened to it once, and put it directly among the others "will never listen to it again" cds...

Hey CD,

did you have a nice time in Paris with your SS 'darlings' ?

If anyone is interested. Sales after Monday....

1. Britney Spears 25k
2. Peter André 20k
3. DJ Casper 18k
4. George Michae 13.5k
5. Kylie 13.3 k

George Michael and Kylie both added another 6k on Tuesday. Single sales are very high this week. Britney has already done 35-40k after 2 days. Lately, number 1's have only sold 45k tops.

i did, thank you!

and glad to see britney is number one. This song deserves to be a number one. Unlike the peter andre shit.

Well "Amazing" wasn´t amazing to me. I expected a new George Michael sound inside his style. Hope the album is better than this single.

amazing the song quite frankly, is rather pedestrian. so he comes back after all these years with a "pleasant " song. bland chord changes cruise ship style lounge band style fair. I dotn think the CD sales will be pretty overall.

What a snorter! I blame that Madonna. Britney used to be so respectable.

There is a 2 minute clip of the video on Launch.co.uk. You guys should check it out. The visual brings out the FUN in the song. You do not see many handclaps from artists anymore! =) Good to see him with a guitar again.

Lol, I'm going to agree that Britney deserves No. 1..

She does great video with Joseph Kahn (dir).

But I can't help thinking that every sexy video she does is designed to make ugly Justin jealous.

Someone once said, "Britney is 21 going on 12", meaning that she's exceptionally immature, in a junior-high sorta way..
it's not hard to believe.

great marriage btw Brit- all 48 hours. It was good of you to uphold that sacred institution now under siege by queers everywhere.

But under the federal amendment you might be able to keep your stylists by special dispensation..

Still don't rate the song. Sorry. Hope there's better stuff on the album.

John And Elvis Are Dead? Oh dear. Is there any chance of this song being anything else but a sickening sobfest?

Who do you think he could be referring to?
