Now that downloading music can actually count towards songs getting into the UK charts, maybe everyone who reads this, could OFFICIALLY download one(1) particular song.

If you think this sounds like a good idea, lets have some suggestions for a download???!!!!

But lets make it soon.. Only two more CHARTS left until Christmas.

Lets be honest, if Chris Moyles can succeed doing this sort of thing, then so can WE!!!!

COME ON!!!!!

Hmmmm..... good idea, but it didn't work with F.U.N.K What song do YOU suggest? Needs to be something on itunes I suppose! What's the approx no. of downloads needed to get into the top 10?

hell no!!!

Let's be realistic, Chris Moyles has something like 6million+ listeners, it would need less than 1% of those to buy the tune to hit number one. How many people do you really think come here to do something like that? There's probably less than a couple of hundred of us.

This sort of thing has been tried here before but it's really not going to work. I'll happily buy the tune if we decide on one but I'd be under no illusion that anything we do would have an effect.

We'd actually be better off hassling Chris Moyles to get him to campaign people to buy the track.

no no no...keep pushing mate...prince just isn't on goodterms with his fans right now...all his own doing btw.

I don't like what Prince is doing at the moment but i truely love his music.
What i don't like is that no one, apart from the obvious, appreciates his musical talents...

Some times i think the masses CAN make a difference...

Be honest, is there any one else out there with his talents at the moment, if there ever will be!!!!!

I'm just a long suffering Prince fam, that's all.....

#1 everyday 4 me.

No, no one even close, but they'll all realise one day.....

sosgemini said:

Oh, man...

all we need to do is alert the press, so on the websites of uk papers and music magazines they can have a small arcticle saying "Prince fans to try and get the singer a no.1"

although the average xmas no.1 sells about 250,000.

so it might be quite hard lol

Who's Chris Moyles?

the most famous, populer radio dj in england. also the most listened to.

he works for RADIO 1 and also does abit of tv stuff

RumAndRaisin said:

Well, that's debatable

Jeffiner said:

radio one is the most listened to, theres no doubt about it

radio 2 is actually the most listened-to radio station in the uk, & thank god 4 that, as its the only station that promotes & plays Prince's most recent works. & besides, radio 1 is pants. Infact, radio in this country, & actually in the U.S. aswell, is all very computer-playlisted, focus-group, crap.

'don't play me, cos already do in my car'.....
'12 cd's for a dollar-makes me wanna holler'....

that's the kinda defeatist attitude that has resulted in what is IMHO his most lackluster musical output period ever.

Jeffiner said:

didnt chris moyles once get 13 million listeners though?? i just asumed that would mean radio 1 was the most listened to.

RumAndRaisin said:

I don't know. Chris Moyles does like Prince though I think, didn't he go to the 'preview' for the O2 shows, was it Koko? in Camden or something!

Jeffiner said:

yeah, and loads of the o2 shows

sosgemini said:

Don't speak for all his fans cause he doing just fine with me and many more fans that I know.

I appreciate what you guys out in England are trying to do. If there was something here in America, I would do all that I could to support it. Good luck!

But P told Rolling Stone he was listening to himself in his car way back in 1985. I'm not trying to be a pain in the ass but I'm just saying.

RumAndRaisin said:

Ahhh... and then he has to play all that rubbish on his show.... just kidding! I haven't listened to his show so I don't really know what he plays. Not allowed to play Prince though probably!

Jeffiner said:

hes played prince quite a bit. a few months they had a vote out of raspberry beret and purple rain

RumAndRaisin said:

Oh, cool, what won?

Do you get the impression that a lot of listeners know about and like Prince then? I was talking to a 19 year old recently and he'd never heard of Prince!! I was like
