Another week in the UK Album Chart for The Enemy's 'Music For The People' as it dipped five places to this weeks number 68. This week the second single from the album, 'Sing When You're In Love' released on three formats in store or from the official website and on various exclusive formats on iTunes.
The Enemy's new single 'Sing When You're In Love' (out Monday) is currently on the Radio 1 'B List', which means it should get air play at least 5 times this week. |  |
With just one week until the release of The Enemy's 'Sing When You're In Love', the lads have previewed tracks from the various formats on their MySpace page. You can catch a sneak preview of the Billy Bragg 'New England' tune, 'Hey Hey My My' and 'Don't Upset The Rhythm' from the Radio 1 Live Lounge.
This week saw The Enemy 'Music For The People' slip 10 places down the UK Album Chart to number 63. The band have been touring with Oasis, which has helped maintain sales as new fans bought the album. Oasis saw their latest album 'Dig Out Your Soul' climb 18 places to number 90.
Here is what The Shields Gazette said about The Enemy in it's review of the Oasis gig in Sunderland at the Stadium of Light."Coventry trio The Enemy were next on the bill, and their lad-rock was a perfect appetiser for Oasis's beer-swilling audience.- review by Gary Welford.
Frontman Tom Clarke might be a little fella, but he has a big personality, and he got the crowd going with a 10-song set including Had Enough, Away From Here, the excellent We'll Live And Die In These Towns and storming closer You're Not Alone."
The Enemy were performing as support for Oasis during their massive UK Tour and 70,000 fans were in Manchester to witness the first music event of it's kind seen at Heaton Park. Twisted Wheel and Kasabian completed the line-up that, according to Liam Gallagner would be "better than Knebworth."
Saturday's spectacular more than made up for the problems seen on the opening night and Tom Clarke had recovered from food poisoning. The Enemy set list incorporated more tracks from the new album, opening with 'Elephant Song' and closing surprisingly with 'Happy Birthday Jane'. The crowds were very receptive and 'Away From Here' (watch the video below) and 'Had Enough' got the crowds dancing along. New album tracks 'No Time For Tears' and 'Sing When You're In Love' were received well and fans were treated to '51st State'.

There have been many press stories about a so called 'feud' between The Enemy's Tom Clarke and Oasis Liam Gallagher, I try and steer away from such stories as in this instance. The press had taken comments made on a radio show,twisted them to make a story and the rest is history.
