The Invasion Of Chico



Well, I guess the British public must be taking life "too serious" because they sure as hell must be delerious to be wasting hard-earned money on "It's Chico Time." It would be bad enough if he was a normal artist but why do so many people fall for all that X Factor bollocks? It's not as if out of two whole series they've produced one decent artist.

Steve Brookstein, Shayne (Spell it normally, Twat!) and now this... thing. At least with Pop Idol people had the sense to see that will was good and Michelle was just a big pile of cack.

And of course, he's heading for number one for a second week whereas the Sugababes "Red Dress" (complete with as! ace! as! "I Bet You Look Good On The Dancefloor" cover) is only going for five. Madonna lurks at six while Pussycat Dolls sleep their way up the charts to number 2. The only good thing I can really see is that The Modern are getting a top 20 hit as they look to chart at no. 13.

The album chart looks similarly bleak with only Arctic Monkeys and KT Tunstall being the albums making any impression on me at all. And Blunt's still in the top 10. Grr!

    Its a f***ing outrage that Chico got to number one! I remain devastated and disillusioned with my fellow Brits... Have you heard the Sugababes doing Living For The Weekend by Hard-Fi? They are certainly letting their indie freak flag fly :)
