And then he'd never come to the UK! So maybe him entering the Eurovision isn't the best idea ever? I'd kinda like him to come over here one day! Haaa

Jordin came over quicker - and don't remember there being the hype for those two over here as there is for David - I mean to be in top 100 of iTunes is amazing considering the limited coverage he's had!

I think if he gets a high position on Itunes then he could possibly come over here quicker. Let's just hope that he sees sense and realises that he'd destined to live in the UK....! A girl can dream!

I live in the country - he'd be right at home out here in the middle of nowhere. And surrounded by music, litterally. There's not a day that goes by that Dad and Me don't have a full blown conversation on ONE line by Dylan. Or, we'll end up ruminating over Verheyen or something mad like that. I breathe music.

Wouldn't it be great if a week of TV appearances over here? I'd love to see him on Jonathan Ross or Graham Norton.
I'm so pleased about ITunes, it's pretty amazing he's got so far up the chart considering AI gets little or no media coverage over here. If it reaches the Top 40, will it enter into our charts? I'm not sure how that works now they've changed it all to include downloads as well as single sales.

I'd absolutely love it if he went on Jonathan Ross. I love that show so much.
I'm not quite sure how the actual chart works now... I know that every download counts towards the charts now (A year or so ago, only a percentage of them actually counted). I guess it depends how many CD's the other people sell.

What a match he'd be for Jonathon Ross?!!!
Not sure how charts work either - but guess the higher up the charts he gets the more interest from the UK music industry there is, the more airplay he gets, the more popular he becomes and the more chance there is of him coming over here *working self into excitable frenzy*!!

Really, you know her? She was my favourite! And she was brilliant last night and gave a much better performance than Sam on 'Memory' - ALW should have saved her!
In better news - David is now at number 31 on the iTunes top 100! That's quite a boost

Hopefully, even with other people's CD sales he should make it into the Top 40!

I actually know her really well as Rachel Kelly. I've got pictures of her when she was like, 14 all over my desk. My sister, who was also in a wheelchair, acted with her inn Annie [Rachel did Pepper] in the Summer of 1996. Rachel's so genuinely lovely. I can tell you now, she's been getting votes from heaven. I sang Stand By Me with her once, and she went 'Darlin', darlin' standddd!' and I went 'Noooooooooooooooo - it's PUMBA!'. Lovely memory to have, all the same.

Can I be Cook's personal Northern Ireland guide? If he comes October/November time, he can come see the best guitar player in the world [Carl Verheyen, the guy is AMAZING]. Verheyen goes to Germany, and this guy makes him a new hand-made guitar and gives it to him every time he goes. Apparently, there's this one guitar which he loves [and I got to admit, to be HIS GUITAR would be crazy...] and this dude made it for him. One night he played one of his songs, and the whole guitar fell apart he played it that hard. The guy repaired it for him - he was sat in the audience whenit happened.
