20th eh? Well that is pretty good, but they ARE number one on the world billboard charts and have been for ages now. Seems like we are a bit behind the curve at only 20th. I sure wouldn't trade a CW ticket to see anyone else, but then again most of us here are a bit biased in that regard. Nicely done CW, we'll try to help you crack the top ten next time.

Fantastic news! Please continue to keep us posted on these ratings Texas Celtic Girl. I think it will be as I've always maintained: clamoring fans will be a force the American music industry cannot forever ignore! |
