 Jessie J - Bang Bang (feat. Ariana Grande & Nicki Minaj) UK chart-run: {1}-2-2-5-4-4-7-13-16-16-25-30-23-11-12-16-23-28-34-34-36-35-47-47-47-51-53-56-60-59-61-62-71 Today marks 5 years since the world was first introduced to 'Bang Bang' by Jessie J, Ariana Grande and Nicki Minaj! The song was a hit, becoming Ariana's 2nd UK number one single a few months after 'Problem' (yep held back releases still continued to be a thing) and has amassed a staggering 1.3 billion views on YouTube! The only Ariana music video to have more is 'Side To Side', also featuring Nicki. It continues to live on by being covered by at least someone on X Factor every single year. How has 'Bang Bang' held up for you five years later? |

Quite a marmite song on here and I can see why! I've personally never been a fan, it already sounded dated upon arrival and has aged even worse since then. Plus the vocals are just not pleasant to listen to for the most part minus Nicki (the highlight will always be "it’s me, Jessie and Ari") as it feels like a screech off
 not my cup of tea really but I am happy that Ari got another #1 out of it at least, 5 of those under her belt here is impressive.

For some reason I thought it was #1 for about 3 weeks, surprised it was only 1 (then again it was 2014 so I should of known)

I do still give this the occasional listen but I just don't really like Jessie J. It would have been so better somebody else as lead artist.
