Buble is terrible.

I really can't understand why anyone would buy a Buble record when they could buy a Sinatra record and hear the same songs done soooooo much better.

There are bigger c**** in the world than Buble, but I just haven't met them yet.

Anyhoo, 17 in the UK is terrible but most of my favourite artists wouldn't even chart so I don't care about these things anymore.

I don't think Mark will be too bothered by the chart position

I think it's easier to be high in the charts in early September than in mid November, when any other artist's new album is already out

My reasoning makes me think of something else: with Tracker, a single sounding DS was enough to push the album to number 1 in many countries of Europe and sell a lot. Unbelievable! :disbelief

I was surprised about BOTDF release as second single two weeks before album in stores because MK usually needed just 1 song airplaying to wake up aficionados about forthcoming new work. Looking at charts, maybe was BOTDF  a patch because GOYS didn't work at all?

Not agreeing with you there Dusty. I'll happily buy Buble Vinyl ta... On the subject of C****, Sinatra it seems was a huge one!!!!!!

I think it’s a little naive to think MK doesn’t care about chart position.  I think he would care enough to keep British Grove Studios going and making enough money for the ‘next one.’ 

So, maybe not overall concerned with position but I think he would be interested to know how his work is doing.  I can’t imagine British Grove is not an inconsiderate overhead, though a lot of the other band booking etc may cover this.

Try Sinatra's "Songs for Swingin' Lovers"   with the wonderful Nelson Riddle orchestra.  A million times better than Buble - the real thing!    :)

Sorry Val, I'm seriously not into Sinatra personally.
I just really like Buble's voice.....and not Sinatra's....
