How do we know where SINT is in the charts?

Oh yeah, you can buy it online. What's annoying me is that it's the first Queen single for 10 years and I wanted to re-live the old days of going to a record shop and actually buying it on the day of release.
Had I known it wasn't going to be available in any shops (Virgin, HMV, WHSmith, Woolworths, ASDA, Morrisons), I'd have ordered it online and I might actually have had it today!
tiltheendoftime asked a question with a ridiculously simple answer: How do we know where SINT is in the charts?

answer: easy - well outside the charts - or in other words it's so low in sales that it's in fact "Jules Vernesque" - 20,000 leagues under the charts

HELLO

I THOUGHT THAT QUEENZONE WAS FOR QUEEN FANS, SO WHY IS IT THAT WE KEEP GETTING ANTI QUEEN + PR PEOPLE SLAGGING OFF THE BAND, WHO ARE JUST TRYING SOMETHING NEW, TO KEEP THE QUEEN SOUND ALIVE?

I THINK THE MOANERS SHOULD STOP SLAGGING OFF THE NEW STUFF, AND START SUPPORT BRIAN, ROGER AND PAUL, OTHERWISE SHUT THE FUCK UP, AND GO AND BE A FAN OF THE STONE GODS OR SOMETHING.

IT'S GREAT TO HEAR THAT QUEEN SOUND ON A NEW TRACK, I KNOW THAT SINT IS'NT WHAT WE ALL WANT, MYSELF I AM WAITING FOR CLASSIC BRIAN TUNE HEADLONG, HAMMER TO FALL ETC, I AM CONFIDENT THAT THE NEW ALBUM WILL BE GREAT AND PUT QUEEN BACK WHERE THEY BELONG.

OH AND BY THE WAY, I ON'T GIVE A FUCK IF I'VE SPELT ANY WORDS WRONG, OR IF I'VE MISSED COMMAS, INNUENDO1991, KEEP THE QUESTIONS COMING, IGNORE THE TWATS THAT KEEP TAKING THE PISS, AT LEAST YOU ARE A REAL FAN, WHO WANTS TO TALK ABOUT REAL THINGS, AND NOT KEEP FUCKING MOANING ALL THE WHILE.

HAPPY NEW YEAR PEOPLE!!
Come On Down let's Rock This Place....Suck It To Me!!!

In case you hadn't noticed it, Queen and Queen+Paul Rodgers are two separate bands. One of them had a legendary 20 year career with groundbreaking music (as well as some pretty average albums), while the other one has only managed to squeeze out that SINT song so far... And to be honest, it it can't really sound like Queen, can it? For starters it has a singer who was never featured on any Queen album.

Again, Queen and Queen+Paul Rodgers are two different bands. There are some similarities because there are same members, but so far Q+PR have proven themselves to be nothing more than a Queen tribute band with one VERY average single available for download.

Nowhere on the previous albums (or anywhere else in the world for that matter, apart from the internet messages of some very deluded people like yourself) did it say that we have to support any band with similarities to Queen, and no one has said we shouldn't be able to judge them just like any other band.

It is PERFECTLY reasonable to be a fan of Queen, but not a fan of Queen+Paul Rodgers. I repeat again, they are not the same band, and nowhere have we agreed to treat them as such.

You can wait for as long as you want, but the new album is not going to put Queen "back to where they belong" because
a) The new album is not being released by Queen. It's going to be released by Queen+Paul Rodgers, and
b) because the new album simply will not sound (in general) as any Queen album because it has an entirely different singer with an entirely different style of singing, and an entirely different style of music he likes to write and perform.

I think a bigger issue this time is your constant use of capital letters, which makes the text harder to read, and makes the tone more aggressive.

i hope you are not aiming this at my comments. life is about opinions, and that was my opinion...i thinks it's a shit tune. if they do something that i like i will come out and say so...but i'm not holding my breath. as i have said before...all of Roger's solo stuff is better than anything i have yet to hear released under the Queen banner.

It's not "anti-queen" to say something is rubbish...would you buy a car, or tv or book that you thought was rubbish? no YOU would say what you tjhought of it, and avoid at all costs...same applies to Queen - fan or not, they are not entitled to our unconditional support...otherwise they could get away with just farting into microphones and charge us for the privilege.

no it isn't...not if the "new (old) track" is shite!!! and as for your confidence...i will bet you £100 that the single doesn't make the UK top 20 singles charts and double the bet that the album doesn't go top ten UK charts...put your money where you confident mouth is...

you need to take off your "queen coloured spectacles" and see the reality...the band as a force are spent....the glory days were gone before you were born....
doesn't mean we can't still love the band...i find it the same with the who, beatles and floyd...but it doesn't mean you have to be a sychophantic stepford and love everything they do...where's your fucking objectivity?

no it isn't
that isn't the chart - that's their opinion of "top ten singles worth buying"
the actual singles chart is the link above...and it's not in the top 30

Id like to see it chart, but I doubt it will.

And I like Stone Gods, the one track available to hear anyway.

Heres a link to the UK charts. Keep in mind that at the time of posting this (4th Jan 2008), the song hasnt charted yet.

"Normally i can't dance to save my life. But as soon as I step in dog shit, I can moonwalk better than Michael Jackson."
and keep in mind that if singles don't break the top 40 in their first week (these days) they usually don't at all...as it equates to a slow start with initial sales spread over 2 rather than 1 sales week...once the initial impetus is gone, it's hard to build up anymore...
