So, the voting has started as Mi Tracks goes live. www.cduk.com/mitracks/index.phpUnder the host tracks it is so predictably split, with Mylene going for pop, Lauren for trendy indie and Johnny for gangster rap. The whole concept seems to be good though, although I'm not sure how many people will take the time to vote, so 10 people will probably control the whole chart outlook  |

It seems alright but we'll see come Saturday, Kelly and Charlotte were the only ones to get +5 from me.

The voting needs a little sorting out. It should all be in one page. You have really look to see where to vote.

I notice that McFly aren't listed, but what's worrying is that there is the option to nominate a song.

I'm voting, but my major problem with it, is it's no better a measure of what people actualy would buy or legally download. It's a measure of how loud you'd have your radio when a particular song came on, basically.

Yeah, I agree. Some of the songs I'd like to hear on the radio etc but I'd never buy them.

Yup, some people thought there were five charts (the main one, Myleene's one, Lauren's one, Johny's one and the Hot Shots one), but they all do go towards the one chart.

I've voted, but yes it's a bit confusing to go round all the pages. The hosts bit is fine, but then you've got hot tracks and some other page with loads on as well.
Will be interesting to see how it pans out tho. Bless Johnny for having to nominate all the urban stuff.

Christ, darius has just appeared on my TV. I was just reading the above thread, minding my own business and he appears all of a sudden. He's now going, 'love is all around'. What? |

There should be - the majority of the commercial stations (those owned by EMAP and GCap) are covering it, so I guess you should tune in sometime this evening, and they'll have an update.

There's three main sections - "Now Tracks" with 20 main songs, "Host Tracks" with 21 songs, split into three parts of seven, chosen by the presenters, and 9 "Hot Shots" songs. You have to choose a score for each song, ranging from +5 if you love it loads to -5 for sheer hatred. You can submit your vote on each page, and the cookies keep you from voting until the following week.

Midweeks for the real chart are bad enough, I won't really bother with midweeks for this.

They were going on about wednesday's at 8pm or something - I don't know whether that is for this if that makes sense!

It may mean absolutely nothing but so far it's certainly far more poptastic than the real chart.

It may mean absolutely nothing but so far it's certainly far more poptastic than the real chart. If I were smug and insuffereably condescending, I would suggest that this is because this chart is decided by people who have to care about music enough to actually vote, whereas other charts are decided by a majority who just want some bland inoffensive shite to wash over them in the background. And I am. So I have. |
