Rihanna has come back from a slight dip a couple of years ago, so it's possible Lady G can do the same. However, at one point it looked like Lady G might duplicate Madonna's success of the 1980's. That can't now happen because Madonna's 2nd and 3rd albums were far bigger than Lady G's current one (in quality and sales). Madonna's status as biggest female act of all-time is not under threat from Lady G; Rihanna has a better chance of that (but still has a long way to go).

I think she is the 3rd or 4th biggest act of 2011 so far behind Adele, Rihanna and maybe Jessie J but where will she be at the end of this year then at the end of 2012?

Clive James once wrote about this kind of thing:
"For any watching rapists, it must have got the evening off to a flying start."

I always suspected that Jimmy Saville's Radio 1 Sunday lunchtime shows were voicetracked, as far back as the late 70's, and certainly not live. I don't think Saville ever had any interest in the music.

Brian, how can you tell that POTP uses Voicetracking? How many other BBC programmes do so?
Personally, I think that voicetracking goes against the whole ethos of public service radio.

Robbie hasn't troubled the charts for a while. Has he gone into semi-retirement?
