That's last week's
In fact
http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/entertainment/7394927.stm
I still don't believe you.
And that is that.
Scooter are good.
Really! I like 'em. They've got some classic tracks. As good as any other modern dance record, especially tat like Justice.
Justice ARE tat
put it there
uh huh
who are they?
i've got no idea. they're not those eurovision clowns from last year are they?
supertramp covered them
no wai
they are euro-core royalty.
Can we have another Scooter thread please? I AM THE HORSE MAN!!!!!
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4Vk6r1gSYDM
MOVE! YOUR! ASS!
IT'S NOT A BIRD! IT'S NOT A PLANE!
IT MUST BE DAVE!
WHO'S ON THE TRAIN!
COME ON! POSSE! YOU'VE GOTTA KEEP IT UP!
I AM THE HORSE MAN
MENTALLY MAD!
THROW YOUR SHOES
IN THE AIR!
THE LEADING HORSE IS WHITE
THE SECOND HORSE IS RED
THE THIRD ONE IS A BLACK
THE LAST ONE IS A GREEN
THANK YOU FOR NOT SMOKING!
GOOD MORNING!!!!!!
well
they piss all over Madonna, Duffy and anything Alex Turner touches. Makes sense.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g_VZPeDGnyc&feature=related
yeah but....
A WHOLE ALBUM OF THAT?
:D:D:D:D
yes
better than ten seconds of Usher i'll wager.
Seriously
This is fucking mental, HOW. I only listen to scooter on clips on youtube to laugh at, I mean seriously
I think the entirety of the UK is playing one huge practical joke
this is a victory for indie/alternative
an artist has topped the charts despite being hideously uncool, and having absolutely no mainstream press or airplay or allegiance to the C4/E4 axis of yoot musik. Like Cascada, they are pushed into the spotlight by the unseen majority of skinheaded, Sherman shirted, Heaven n Hell pound a pint provincial idiots and tossbags. Sure they have no taste whatsoever, and a lot of them are violently ugly and stupid, but they're pushing forward the plight of the little man, the under-represented, those disenfranchised by the world of blanket media cultural whitewashing. And for that, we should commend them
AHEM
There's been fucking adverts on the telly mate. It's corporate happy-hardcore.
i hadn't noticed any
but even with those adverts for XXTREME HARDCOREX MIXED BY HIXXY AND STYLES N BREEZE you never see them going straight in at number one
and of course it's corporate, but for something which is clearly so popular you never see the mainstream going anywhere near it (except for the aformentioned adverts during Hollyoaks). It's just flown completely past all the "tastemakers" and is "of itself"
Hixxy is great by the way
just wanted to mention that.
there's a massive market for it
and has been since the early 90s. Of course it's mainstream - you don't get non-mainstream stuff doing adverts on the telly. If they can afford TV advertising costs..
yeah but
JIGGA JIGGA!
you DO just memorise passantino reviews
then reword them when relevant dont you?
only when i agree with them
It's like I'm in Year Eight all over again!
They're like, MEGA huge.
Move Your Ass.
Is one of theirs, no?
i prefer
Vengaboys myself.
Bo bo.
Anyway
i'm not particularly surprised. They're massive all over Europe, haven't released anything here for six years and still a lot of people hear them in clubs, before seeing the album on supermarket shelves. How people are surprised that they're number one but don't question the presence of Sam Sparro (ho?) in the top five is a bit beyond me.
plus
will this see the return of Moped?
http://www.emmetonline.co.uk/moped/biog.htm
:D
also, Sam Sparro is in the top 5 because he's had MASSIVE amounts of airplay, and his single is both quite good and a little bit unusual
i see.
i'd never heard of him beyond an advert banner on DiS. Maybe that's more telling of my existence rather than of the pop charts.
