Haha!
Some more info:
Kriss Kross/Clarion from Fyfe "We've always meant to put out a double A-side at some point 'And we couldn't decide which of 'Kriss Kross' and 'Clarion' should be the next single, so now seemed like the right time to do both" The single will initially be available as a four-track digital bundle, including the new video directed by Magrao on Sept 22nd, then a beautiful VERY limited edition 10" vinyl following on October 6th. There will only by 500 numbered copies in beautiful packaging that features the masks, that Greig made used in Magrao's Kriss Kross video As well as Kriss Kross and Clarion, which both appear with alternative edits to those on the album "Red", the release features two previously unreleased tracks. The first is the band's frenzied Radio 1 cover of Sam Sparro's "Black & Gold", The second is a brand new song, "Fishbone For A Drink", written in a soundcheck at Latitude Festival this year and hastily recorded soon afterwards. it is rough, stripped-down and with a distinctly menacing undertone running through, it's not quite like anything Guillemots have recorded before, and provides a glimpse of the way things might sound on their next album.
10" vinyl only. I don't expect this to make the Top 75. ;(

It's still a great choice. I'll be hoping they get the prize in 7 days time - they fully deserve it. Here's a good live performance of "The Bones of You": www.youtube.com/watch?v=_GzGMEvkjrI

Top 50 in the midweeks, I've pre-ordered the single. Looks like this will definitely be making the Top 40 this time around!

Don't ask me to pronounce it. This is the first single proper from the Icelandic band's third studio album Með suð í eyrum við spilum endalaust which reached #5 on the UK album chart back in June. I really like this, it's epic in a understated way - a little like 'Hoppipolla'

It's a bit average on first listen.. "You're All I Have" was a lot more instant. Maybe it will grow?

Really loving this at the moment - I think this has the potential to give the band their first UK Top 10 hit definitely!

The original (and far better IMO) mix is at 41, the Mirwais Mix has yet to appear!
This entered the chart at #55 on Sunday, finally giving Sonny J his first Top 75 UK hit. ;D

Taken from the Seattle rock bands debut album Where Have All the Merrymakers Gone?, "Flagpole Sitta" remains to this date their biggest hit, which went Top 40 on Billboard and as high as #3 on the Modern Rock track chart in Autumn 1998. The song is best known in the UK for being used as the themetune to alternative cult sitcom Peep Show which aired on Channel 4 since 2003. Video: www.youtube.com/watch?v=1xzxDRA93Nk
