Rihanna next week (fingers crossed) , 10 weeks at number and thats going to be a record.

Plain White T's Finally Unseats Rihanna On Hot 100
July 19, 2007, 10:10 AM ET

Plain White T's earn their first Billboard Hot 100 No. 1 as "Hey There Delilah" continues its staircase climb, stepping from No. 2. The song has progressed one place each week since it leaped 16-6 in the June 23 issue. In doing so, it unseats Rihanna's "Umbrella" after seven weeks at the top. "Delilah" is also Hollywood Records' first-ever No. 1 on the Hot 100.

Congrats to Rihanna on such a super run on the Hot 100 charts for the hit “Umbrella”.


Rihanna is still dominating the UK charts and is going for a record 10 weeks at the top. ella, ella, ella, eh, eh, eh.

 

[Danugh]

Way to go Rihanna.

Umbrella is now number 1 in the UK for 10 consecutive weeks . The longest stretch in 13 years.

Ella, ella, eh, eh, eh,

Congrats Rihanna.

RIHANNA RULES EUROPE FOR SEVENTH WEEK


Posted by Melinda @ 3:17 PM EDT • Filed under Chart Updates »

R+B star RIHANNA still reigns supreme at the top of the European singles chart - her JAY-Z collaboration, UMBRELLA, is the continent’s top song for a seventh week. Mika’s Relax, Take It Easy remains at number two for a third week. The rest of the top five are also non-movers - Fergie’s Big Girls Don’t Cry, Enrique Iglesias’ Do You Know? (The Ping Pong Song), and Timbaland’s The Way I Are are at numbers three, four and five respectively. Meanwhile, Nelly Furtado’s Loose is enjoying a second week as Europe’s number one album. Mika is at two with Life In Cartoon Motion, while The Traveling Wilburys Collection comes in third.

^ Finally, you say something nice about the multi platinum selling, multi- award winning, worldwide record breaking, island sensation that is Rihanna.

i just hope she slows down this time

Ri Ri wont slow down until she gets her Grammy. She seriously wants one.


I still say she was robbed a Best Dance Recording for S.O.S. I mean even if they didn't want to give it to her, she should have at least been nominated. S.O.S was the biggest dance song last year, Sexyback my ass.


Rihanna's best shot next year is with Umbrella and "Dont Stop The Music" or "Shut up and Drive."

I think this deserves a repost

Scott Simons > Rihanna

She does look pretty stunning though. But her thighs are huge, what a turn off.

 

[Danugh]

WOW, this is incredible, ible, ible, eh, eh, eh.


This is so awesome and the MTV video music award nominations are tomorrow, UMBRELLA has to be nominated. The song is SO HUGE.

Anyways back the main story, UMBRELLA is still number 1 in ALL of Europe. ella, ella,

Definite song of the year

 

[Danugh]

Rihanna and her UMBRELLA picked up 5 MTV video music award nominations today, including, "Monster Single Of The Year". I mean seriously there is no competition.


How is Beyonce nominated 7 times. Her album is so old and Irreplaceable? the song was hot but the video was standard, how the hell did it get video of the year. She needs to sit down, someone paid for these nominations because its so bogus. I am not hating but something is off is like she can do no wrong. She gets Grammys for any crap she puts out.


Best Female R&B vocal performance for "Ring The Alarm?" Seriously? All she is doing was screaming an acting a fool. She didn't win in that category but she shouldn't have been nominated for that Grammy in the first place.


Instead, Rihanna should have gotten nominated for "Unfaithful". If Beyonce sang it it would have won a Grammy.


If Beyone sang "When I See You" it would be top 10 on billboard hot 100.


Thats why i am so happy Rihanna got UMBRELLA because it is way to huge to be ignored come Grammy nomination morning in December.


Ella, ella, eh, eh, eh.

Ella, ella, eh, eh, eh.

funny thing is the Grammy's dont care how popular a song is when deciding nominees.

I love how you claim they paid off MTV (which makes more money than Beyonce will ever see) to get seven nominations. I am more inclined to think Rhianna did that. Sorry, I meant to say Rhiannas controllers paid off MTV.

Although I dislike Beyonce's music too, she is better than Rhianna ana ana a a a.

 

[Danugh]

The people all over the entire world paid for Rihannas nominations because they paid to download UMBRELLA and kept downloading it for record breaking weeks. They also kept calling radio stations and requesting that the song be played and the video on TRL and BET and VH1, making it the monster single that it is and thats why she got nominated.

Its still number one in ALL of Europe. And thats why Rihanna is nominated because the single is the biggest song of the year, so stop being a jerk because you know its true. You have a personal bias against Rihanna and thats fine but no matter what you cannot ignore the facts and how HUGE umbrella has been and still is. Shouldnt you be howling at some moon.

funny thing is the Grammy's dont care how popular a song is when deciding nominees.

Stop talking out of your ass. In any event UMBRELLA has a strong message behind it in the lyrics, its a meaningful song but lets stick with the flawed popularity point you raise,


Grammys 2007, "Promiscuous Girl" and "Hips Dont Lie", enough said.

 

[Apollo]

OMG Umbrella has no meaning behind at all. It's a little poppy song that will be forgotten in 2 monthes. It will only stay in the history books for its 10 week stint in the UK.

i'm surprised you didnt put my on your ignore list. i am always fighting with you over Rihanna. (eeeeew Rihanna)

 

[Ares]

Does iTunes have a return policy? I want my $0.99 back.

 

[merlot]

its a meaningful song

dare i ask..

what's so meaningful (using that very loosely) about this song?

 

[Danugh]

clearly hooked on phonics didn't work for you and you are making your highschool English teacher look bad.


Below are the lyrics to UMBRELLA, i know its going to be hard for you; but try with all your might to use your common sense and basic interpretive skills to answer your own question.

Oh and UMBRELLA is what is known as a metaphor ok, but it would be pointless to explain what that is to you , any who here are the lyrics,


[VERSE 1]


You had my heart
and we'll never be world apart
Maybe in magazines
but you'll still be my star
Baby cause in the Dark
You can see shiny Cars
And that's when you need me there
With you I'll always share
Because

[CHORUS]
When the sun shines
We’ll shine together
Told you I'll be here forever
Said I'll always be your friend
Took an oath
I'mma stick it out 'till the end
Now that it's raining more than ever
Know that we still have each other
You can stand under my Umbrella
You can stand under my Umbrella
(Ella ella eh eh eh)
Under my umbrella
(ella ella eh eh eh)
Under my umbrella
(ella ella eh eh eh)
Under my umbrella
(ella ella eh eh eh eh eh eh)

[VERSE 2]


These fancy things,
will never come in between
You're part of my entity
Here for Infinity
When the war has took it's part
When the world has dealt it's cards
If the hand is hard
Together we'll mend your heart
Because ...


[CHORUS]



[BRIDGE]

You can run into my Arms
It's okay don't be alarmed
(Come into Me)
(There's no distance in between our love)
So Gonna let the rain pour
I'll be all you need and more
Because ...


[CHORUS]

 

[Apollo]

i wonder did you see your beloved Rihanna on Bring It On tonight? it was on ABC Family. It was back when she had long hair and SOS was a hit. I am sure you have the DVD just for that part.

 

[Danugh]

^ Seriously i missed it. I dont have the DVD, haha; but i have watched it before. She is so cute in it.


Im sure it will repeat.


Ella, ella, eh, eh, eh.
