Girl afraid
Okay I’ve got this idea, stop me if you think it’s ridiculous.
There’s a new download rule which allows any song, old or new, single or album track, to be counted in the official top 40.
Radio fourth are doing an experiment. Two of their presenters are asking listeners to download ‘blame it on the boogie’ by the Jacksons all this week to see if they can get it in to the top 40.
If it works I think it would be great if we did the same thing with a Moz/Smiths song.
We could create a poll in order to choose which song. Preferably one that hasn’t charted before and is hardly ever played on Radio. The more non-radio friendly the better. We could announce it on the main board at the beginning of a week and ask everyone to download the chosen song at some time that week.
I know we all spent a lot of money on Morrissey last year, album, singles, gigs and so on and I know that a lot of you don’t really care about the charts. But it’s only 79p and I think it would be a fun thing to do. And if we all pull together and it works I think it could be a really proud moment.
If no one’s interested then that’s fair enough. It was only an idea. Obviously in order for it to work a lot of people would have to get involved.
But if you are interested in taking part, please leave a comment and perhaps suggest some songs.
Thanks
