When Ur A Clone…

When Ur A Clone…: blog I hadn’t seen before, linked by Oh, Manchester… who correctly calls it “poptastic”. Has the midweek charts – the interesting thing is that David Sneddon’s only sold 19,000 records so far. Yes, still a dead-cert No.1 but surely also proof that the reality-pop train is running somewhat out of steam: the marketing campaign around him has been deeply desultory. Isabel followed the Fame Academy series all through, liked David best but hadn’t even heard he had a single coming out, let alone heard the single itself.
