Huzzah For James Blunt!

jblunted.jpgIt's nice to see that Nickelback aren't the only ones getting slobbed by Billboard for scoring a chart coup today, as James Blunt "completes a notable triple on Billboard's pan-European charts, debuting atop European Top 100 Albums with his sophomore Atlantic set 'All the Lost Souls.' He also starts a second week at No. 1 on Eurochart Hot 100 Singles and a fourth week at the summit of European Radio Airplay with "1973." Congrats to all. (For the first time ever, Maura actually made me delete the joke that originally went here. I really didn't think it was that mean.) [Billboard]

  • A couple years ago when You're Beautiful was just starting to catch on, there were some kids standing behind me at a show randomly talking about the song. One of them said, "His name is Blunt!" and they had a good chuckle at poor James' expense. So I'm sure in the overall scheme of things, Mr. Blunt wouldn't have minded the meaner headline that much.

  • was the original one about being top of the billboard "what an annoying privileged whiney whey-faced TOSSER" chart for the 100th week?
