Barring Duffy, that top 10 is the biggest piece of fucking toss I've ever heard. Jesus chris, to think: the top 10 used to be a good thing. Nickelback are absolute fame hungry bastards (who've been hell bent on getting another hit since 'How You Remind Me' so they don't fall into the One Hit Wonder category). Tossers. As for the rest, Girls Aloud are approaching their sell by date and need to give it up. Leona Lewis, only chavs with feelings or bland types buy her music. Madonna...no dear. And this Estelle, I can just tell it'll be shite. Anyone agree? Or am I going to get hate comments from Kanye West fans? How does this reflect what the NME stands for? I would like to hear someone's reply to this thread...to re-assure myself that I aren't the only one thinking this.
