More nonsense this week from the Yahoo! Launch chart commentary . It's about Travis and their new entry at number 20 with 'Walking In The Sun'. James says;

"A measure of just how far they had declined came in April when their long awaited new single 'Love Will Come Through' made a miserable Number 28, their smallest hit single since they were relative unknowns back in 1997."

Their smallest hit? Really? I don't think so. You only have to look back to the single before that to see Travis's lowest charting single. 'The Beautiful Occupation' made a measly number 48 last December; their only single since they started having hits to miss the top 40. (Releasing a single in Christmas week which alluded to the war in Iraq was never going to be good for airplay or sales.) When I went to school, number 48 was a lower chart position than 28.
