Yeah I was in the Cub Scouts too, but lost interest in it I guess. Anyway, off topic! Single is great, hoping for big things from them. ;D |

This is really good. It reminds me of California emo meets Europop. This one is going on the iPod.

This failed to make the Top 75  - it was though Top 100 in the midweeks and I'm trying to find out where it did eventually chart. The B-side "Teenage Skin" on the CD single is also really good, if not as good as the A-side. Anyway, they're going to be releasing a new single early next year, and the album is set to be out by the summer. ;D |

^ Glad that you like it too.  I found out that the single debuted at #119 on sales of approx. 800. I'm really hoping they'll become more recognised in 2007- they are very much like The Postal Service to me. |

Jo Whiley played a LIVE version of this on BBC Radio 1 the other day. Here's the link: www.megaupload.com/?d=883V06IYI saw them play Exeter the other week and they were really good - very down to earth and chatty, and the atmosphere was amazing. ;D |

Ok, this is being re-released on 28 January 2008 as a double A-side with new single "Echoes", ahead of their debut album [emo] "I Want You To Know That There Is Always Hope" [/emo]. ;D Here's the new video (with a new mix of the single): www.youtube.com/watch?v=WY45UFcPgTE |

Nice bump! I had forgotten about this but now that I've been reminded of it, I'm listening to it again and enjoying it again as well. Great song.

 I got the 3 x 7" vinyls and handmade CD (with the two A-sides on) in the post today for just £3. Bargain-tastic.  Now we just need a decent position in the midweeks. Hopefully it beats it's last peak in 2006 of number 119.  |

The midweeks are in: It's number 61 with sales of 680.  ;D |

I wanted this to go Top 10... or realistically Top 20.
At least it peaked higher than #119. Wow @ only 680 copies being good enough for #61. That even included downloads?

How many copies did you buy this week Danny?  Quite a few... It charted at 71 on Sunday for those who are interested. This gives them their first Top 75 hit- which is very impressive for a 7" vinyl + download only release. ;D |
