"Boten Anna" (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TcreqQqyhtU) - the annoying, internet crap "song" about IRC channels some loser here made on his own computer at home and that was all the rage with Internet dweebs some two years ago is number one in the UK. In an English version (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IgFwiCApH7E), but still number-fucking-one!

And as if that isn't enough, another Swedish-composed song is number two - Britney's "Piece Of Me".

Seriously. What the fuck? You poor souls. :confused:

I dunno, but anyone who actually has good taste in music tends to download it in the UK. So the singles chart is basically representative of the idiots of the UK. Although the English version seems new, even if the Swedish version is 2 years old, when did that one come out?

We aren't responsible for the reaction to crap y'all put out there.

Meh. It's the charts.

They mean nothing, apart from the record industry desperately trying to convince themselves traditional copyright law is workable.

This is not our fault. We didn't make them buy this awfulness and we collectively disowned that dweeb, as I said, two years ago, and this moron's "career" here ended up consisting of him putting up pictures of him fucking some poor girl (his cock, by the way, the ugliest cock I have seen, and I've seen my share) on-line.

Fair enough. But I hold you responsible for Christian Karlsson and Pontus Winnberg.

Bloodshy and Avant.

Ah. Well. Heh. Is it really our fault most of the "major" acts in the last decade have come here to have their pop hits made? I mean, Britney, Christina, Céline, Bon Jovi, Kelly Clarkson, N*Sync, The Backstreet Boys, Westlife, Carrie Underwood, Madonna, Sugarbabes, Christina Milian, Kylie...

... omg, we're worse than Hitler!

Well, at least we're maing a mint off other things than gold teeth. That's got to count for something.

Well, that's for the International tribunal to decide.

That is until incriminating evidence of all the magistrates owning some of the songs in question surfaces and a mistrial is declared due to an impromptu choreographed courthouse dance routine.

I blame the music video that includes a Norwegian ex-porn star, a glamour model, and one or two page 3 girls.

At least, I really, really hope they are to blame...

You seem to be under the impression anyone cares what the singles chart says. It's been full of shite for years.

The only thing that kept me watching that video (ANY VIDEO) to the end (thank you, mute button).

... Aren't those the guys that made that DoTA song?
