So, The Essentials charted at #7 in the London area this week. THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU LONDON! We always feel the love from our hometown!
In doing so, we knocked this Justin Bieber fellow off his high horse. Sure, nationally or internationally he royally kicked our butts, but in our hometown of London, Ontario you will not beat us Bieber!
Here's how the whole thing started.
The Essentials started singing and performing. When we started, we were more popular than Justin Bieber. Then Bieber surpassed us in the popularity department by what pundits call "a landslide". Then Bieber released a Golden Ticket in his album. If you happen to buy the CD with the Golden Ticket he'll come and sing at your house. Then we copied him and released our own Golden Ticket. If you happen to buy the album with the Golden Ticket we'll come to your house and sing and run your BBQ for you and bathe your dog.
So, who's better?
Sings - Bieber=yes, us=yes
Dances awesomely, Bieber=yes, us=no
Has more money than knows what to do with, Bieber=yes, us=no
Will sing at your house if you find the Golden Ticket, Bieber=yes, us=yes
Will BBQ at the show at your house, Bieber=no, us=yes
Will bathe your dog after the show at your house, Bieber=no, us=yes
That's a tie JB. Four for you, and four for us. So it comes down to London, where we edged you out. We're #7 and you're #8. Eat our dust!
Don't feel bad Justin, you're in good company in the dust ingestion department, joined by a couple of ladies: Antebellum & Gaga, and also Christina Aguilera, Nickelback, and the Black Eyed Peas.
Together you can mourn how you were schooled by the local acappella group.

PS – stop the emails...we're kidding...Justin is awesome...and we'll do the BBQ but we're not bathing Coco...
