*****
This was such a great and unexpected success that was a real shot in the arm of the music industry. Fun, funny, brilliant riffs and melodies and one of the most charismatic frontmen of the noughties. Although I believe in a thing called love and christmas effort christmas time (don't let the bells end) just fell short at #2 i still remember the excitement and laughs this band gave everyone at school and how everyone loved IBIATCL and the epic Christmas #1 battle with Mad World. Best British album at The Brits 2004. <br><br>54 weeks in the UK top 100. 216,600 sold while at #1. <br><br>22 weeks UK top 10. UK#1 (4 weeks).<br>Scotland#1 (5 weeks).<br>15 weeks Irish top 10. Ireland#2. <br><br>US#36. <br><br>World Chart Year End (2003): #25.<br><br>1.5 Million copies sold in the UK. 500,000 copies sold in the US.

Great album. At 30 mins, it doesn't go long enough! All the peaks and troughs a rock album needs to be.
