About Me

A 17 year old taking his first tentative steps into the world of blogging. In my first year, its been up and down, from the slow first months to a busy time around the one year anniversary.

'Back To Black' is the best selling UK album this year

Hope everyone had a great Christmas- what new music did you get, if any?

It must bring some hope to Amy Winehouse, that, amongst all her personal issues, her music is still soldiering on. I was quite shocked to find out that 'Back To Black' is officially the highest selling album in the UK this year. She even beat Leona Lewis, whose debut 'Spirit', sold an annoying 1 million albums in a month. Amy, on the other hand, sold 1.5 million over the whole year. Still impressive, but Lewis' figures make her album the fastest selling UK debut, ever. Okay, her voice is great, but she's an X-Factor winner. Aren't people starting to get bored of the whole formula?

I must admit, whenever I see Amy on TV I find myself shouting, pleading that she would sort herself out before she becomes the next Pete Doherty. Regardless, 'Back To Black' is great, and her voice is definitely special. If she could stay of the sauce and sort her live shows out, she'd be back on track. Good luck with it, Amy, and I hope album number 3 is coming along soon. Get your shit together!

    Or album number 3 even? :P

    I didn't get ANY new music for Xmas. It's made me really very grumpy.

    I didn't get any but my family got lots, which is OK. I can still copy the CD's. My dad got the last two National albums, my sister got Klaxons and my brother got Klaxons and Lupe Fiasco (from me).

    Your point about album number 3 is duly noted.
