Dated: A fool such as i:The new things like Ceira can be very popular but they also have to sell. And the strange thing about new singles is that afther two or three monds you never hear them again.
It can be so that record sales are in a slump but who is to blame for that,listen to today's music and you know the answer.
You can hardly call a record by Eminem music. Who wil listen to that in about 10 years from now?
I can understand people liking it for some reason but i never believe it will last long and people will buy it in about 10 years from now.And this is so for a lot of today's music.

Who is "Ciera"? Another 2 bit black soul singer with 15 minutes of fame beckoning?! The only possisble band that can stop Elvis next week are Athlete and they don't have a big enough following. May Elvis blow them all away again!

I wasn't impressed with TOTP on Friday - They played the '68 comeback version and only showed a few stills - saying that EPE would not let them use any footage. I think they need some kind of follow-up promotion skills!
On radio 1 top 40 show not even an interview with Pricilla or Lisa Marie.

I tried a dozen shops & stores, plus Amazon, at lunch time today. 'A fool such as I' was sold out completely and all said that there would be no more. Another collection stops here. My 1st Elvis record was purchased in'57 {All shook up} and that's how I feel now. Thing I just stick to my E1 & E2 cd's etc. Stuff you BMG/SONNY.

im sorry to the fans that cant buy this single cd . it is worth the price . the only good thing coming out of this is that it is sold out so that means it will get to number 1 if the stores bought enough . if it doesnt then it is possible that they think that this cd would not sell as well as jailhouse rock etc . keep buying england where behind you heart and soul .

Anyone unable to buy any of the #1's should write and complain to;
Tim Bowen

Sony BMG Music Entertainment
Bedford House

London
SW6 3JW
UK .
Perhaps if enough write the powers that be may take notice. It's worth a try, keep it clean but forceful.
