if it was that easy to get into the charts as an independent artist then everyone would be doing it.
This is why I like The Manual by the KLF so much (I've mentioned it elsewhere in this thread).
They really spell out the effort involved:
So how do you go about achieving a U.K. Number One? Follow this simple step by step guide:
Firstly, you must be skint [having no money] and on the dole [state benefits]. Anybody with a proper job or tied up with full time education will not have the time to devote to see it through
Having no money sharpens the wits. Forces you never to make the wrong decision. There is no safety net to catch you when you fall.
And a word from one of the authors:
If you wanna have a number one, if that's... it's a pathetic thing to wanna have, but if you want to, you can have it. It won't make you rich, it won't make you happy, but you can have it.
