Margaret for shock #1 plz
Posted by: Ryan. 19th February 2016, 12:05 AM
I see Karen Harding's song actually has been released after about 2 months of constant pushbacks! 
I wonder if it is any good?
I do hope Margaret's song gets released here but it seems to be a Poland-only release judging from a few different European iTunes stores I've checked, I wonder if it would go top 1500 here if it did get put up? 
Posted by: Joe. 19th February 2016, 12:13 AM
Little Mix to utilise this quiet week and sneak top 5 please!
Posted by: JosephStyles 19th February 2016, 12:14 AM
Oh Margaret isn't out after all, what a shame!
Posted by: ML Hammer95 19th February 2016, 07:19 AM
I've heard the new Karen Harding song and I thought it was pretty good! Like Jess Glynne's solo stuff, obviously pop but with a strong dance influence.
See Devlin's releasing this week. He had some tunes back in the day (Runaway, Let It Go, London City, Off With Their Heads, Watchtower) and it was a shame he went back underground. 'Rewind' was watered-down mediocrity though.

Want to listen to these two! 
Posted by: Bjork 19th February 2016, 08:45 AM
but Brits week is never boring, sure something performed there will shoot up the charts, and will also be interesting in albums cos Jack Garratt will probably be #1 in the first mids and then it will be interesting to see if the Brits winners can catch him up in just 1 day

84. Fleur East- More & More
Posted by: Joe. 19th February 2016, 10:24 AM
They only happen on Wednesday though, and there's no new releases, so for the most part, it's pretty dull.
Posted by: mr_pmt 19th February 2016, 12:08 PM
Karen has left it too long to capitalise on 'Say Something' and it's ruined her, still embittered about what happened with the Blonde collaboration though. 
Did Fleur perform somewhere to be back?
What's the new Tove Lo track?

Posted by: HausofTroye 19th February 2016, 12:55 PM
Really loved Devlin's first few eras and i've yet to hear this new song but I hope it's back to his sound from his debut album.
It's the first single from "The Divergent Series: Allegiant" Soundtrack. It's on Spotify and decent~
Posted by: Eva_coco_may 19th February 2016, 12:58 PM
Good to see Fleur back all In all its a great pop song!
She was in good morning Britain but she didn't perform they played a clip of the day in La video she put out

The new Karen Harding song sounds like a chart hit to me. It's different to the house music in the charts recently as it's more piano-led c. 2013-14.
I imagine the new Tinie Tempah/Zara Larsson song will be a hit too and maybe the new Beyonce and Kanye songs will do something once on iTunes.

'Say You Do' looking likely to be yet another big hit for Sigala *.* My favourite new song of 2016. 
Posted by: Jaspine Thompson 20th February 2016, 11:24 AM
Still great to see ...Ibiza is doing so well 
Phillip George's followup predictably flopping, but the song isn't as good as his previous work so it's no big loss for me really. Still hope it can pick up though.
Posted by: mr_pmt 20th February 2016, 12:35 PM
Bloody hell at Mike Posner, #15 and rising rapidly.
Could we be looking at a potential #1 once Radio 1 get on board?
Posted by: Hadji 20th February 2016, 12:36 PM
Mike Posner now at #14, could possibly go straight in the top 10 officially on Friday. Shame about Viola Beach dropping to #6
Posted by: simonf 20th February 2016, 01:46 PM
Could we be looking at a potential #1 once Radio 1 get on board?
I'd say that's a safe bet. Unless something from the Brits helps a song shoot to the top (Like Rihanna/Adele) then I am expecting Mike Posner to challenge for #1 in a few weeks. I suspect Alan Walker could be a contender at some point too.
it will be interesting to see what happens with Rihanna with the video out on Monday, it will surely climb to #2 anyway.
Posted by: Bjork 20th February 2016, 01:46 PM
this has also made a sudden big climb
13 Charlie Puth - One Call Away
Posted by: Bjork 20th February 2016, 01:49 PM
by the way, Mint Royale posted that I Took a Pill is top 40
he also posted Jack Garratt is #1 in albums beating Adele
Posted by: JosephStyles 20th February 2016, 01:51 PM
he also posted Jack Garratt is #1 in albums beating Adele
This is for the Friday Chart Predictions topic, I know it only just got posted but patience is a virtue
I think One Call Away's climb is due to being 59p again? Delighted anyway, I thought it had missed its chance of a chart show play but it doesn't look that way now
Posted by: timjimlee 20th February 2016, 02:37 PM
New All Saints single on Tuesday, guess we are not expecting too much impression on iTunes chart given it's not received a mention
correction - single is released next Friday 26th

167. Taylor Swift - New RomanticsAlready nearly as high as Out of the Woods!
Released as the 6th single was ridiculous. Especially when she released 'Bad Blood' and 'Wildest Dreams' before it! 
Hope 'New Romantics' can do something though, coz that's a great song and one of the top 5 (possibly 3) songs on '1989'.

Out of the Woods is the first of her singles to have had no commercial radio support, well I'm not sure about Kiss but Heart and Capital have snubbed it. I guess it's partly because of Wildest Dreams' performance. She should have skipped that one, album track through and through, even though it did just scrape the top 40 didn't it?
I think New Romantics will obviously do better through due to the fact it's not in the main album, so loads of people won't have it already.
Posted by: JosephStyles 21st February 2016, 01:13 AM
I'm not sure Out of the Woods would've done any better in Wildest Dreams' place! It may have just scraped the top 40 for two weeks but it spent numerous weeks top 20 on sales so it comes down to streams again, which obviously doesn't phase her or the label or she'd be on Spotify. Wildest Dreams is my favourite on 1989 anyway so I'm delighted it got a push and became a top 40 hit against the odds

Or they could have performed "Rest Your Love" instead
Posted by: JosephStyles 21st February 2016, 03:39 PM
Rest Your Love's campaign is long since finished. They performed a medley of Last Night, Wake Up and Oh Cecilia as part of the "End of the Show Show" section, not a typical promo slot

Wow, Lukas Graham might have a 2nd hit in the top 40 soon I hope "Happy Home" gets a push at some point. That was my jam of summer 2014 and thought it would be massive here. Nice to see them doing so well albeit with a different song.
Posted by: Yorkie3 21st February 2016, 04:49 PM
I was just thinking, it really shows how much sales have collapsed when Lukas Graham have such a HUGE lead over #2 on iTunes, and yet are still selling well under 100k a week!
Posted by: mdh 21st February 2016, 06:04 PM
Are they? I thought they were selling over 100k..
Posted by: JosephStyles 21st February 2016, 06:06 PM
Pure sales aren't over 100k, combined sales + streaming points are
Posted by: girlsaloudjunkie 21st February 2016, 07:24 PM
THIS! 'Happy Home' is one of the best songs of the past few years and is MILES better than '7 Years'.
Posted by: Bjork 21st February 2016, 07:31 PM
problem is looks like Mama Said, which is all kinds of bad, is the one climbing up now
plus Happy Home is a collaboration between a DJ and Lukas the singer not the band (I know it's confusing cos of the name), so I doubt they'd go for that as follow-up single

Rihanna has dropped her video. I expect to see huge gains for this now.
Posted by: Bjork 22nd February 2016, 06:15 PM
not one video but two

7 Mike Posner
This really is smashing.
Posted by: Taylor Jago 22nd February 2016, 07:57 PM
I can't work out which of those two videos is worse.
Posted by: Luciano 22nd February 2016, 08:07 PM
I always wonder why her post-leads flop so terribly in the UK. I really loved Same Old Love but it did nothing there.
Hopefully Hands To Myself can revert the curse?
Posted by: HausofTroye 22nd February 2016, 08:11 PM
I am so happy to see Mike Posner climbing comfortably into the top 10. I can't stop singing along to it in my head - what a lovely ear-worm Massive hit please <3
Posted by: Hadji 22nd February 2016, 08:15 PM
Massive hit please <3Shame it won't go top 10 officially as every other song in the top 10 is ahead of him on Spotify

Still well over 60% lead on iTunes for 7 Years, could be no1 for 2 more weeks at the very least doing unbelievably well.

The Zendaya song with Chris Brown sounds almost exactly like 'Somebody'. I'm liking it though, would be a good summer song.
Some very good songs from Devlin, AlunaGeorge, Protoje, Kid Ink, Bryson Tiller, Kendrick Lamar, Tiggs Da Author & Anderson .Paak amongst the list too. Out of them, 'I'm In Control' is almost a guaranteed hit and 'Exchange' could do well once the video is premiered.
Posted by: Jack 22nd February 2016, 11:25 PM
Really hoping 'The Right Song' can go Top 40 at least soon!
Posted by: Hadji 22nd February 2016, 11:33 PM

So does Chandelier
Posted by: Dobbo 23rd February 2016, 11:27 AM
Crazy lead for 7 Years, didn't expect it to be QUITE this well loved here, could be looking at a 5/6+ weeker!
Posted by: Hadji 23rd February 2016, 11:29 AM
Dear god no. Hope Riton can knock them off next week
Posted by: Dobbo 23rd February 2016, 11:37 AM
That would be incredible but no way will be a song like that be a #1 contender. Top 10 would be a superb result.
Posted by: ML Hammer95 23rd February 2016, 12:24 PM
Something about the lyrics to '7 Years' I just can't take seriously. Only heard it infrequently and mainly when at the gym but they seem too try-hard and over earnest for me.
Posted by: Mango 23rd February 2016, 12:36 PM
Yeah I agree, the lyrics are really banal.
Posted by: Bjork 23rd February 2016, 12:39 PM
they are not Shakespeare but better than the usual chart act, I kinda like the bit about being old and being ok if your kids visits you once a month, find it quite touching

Great comeback!
Posted by: gavindeejay 23rd February 2016, 02:12 PM
It's a GRAT from the re-release of their album. They've had loads of support from Radio 1 over the last year, so it's not surprising they've built up a fanbase. It's good to see them doing well and adding more variety to the charts.
Posted by: Simon. 23rd February 2016, 02:29 PM
All Saints releasing on a Tuesday 
get on Spotify already.
Posted by: Cameron 23rd February 2016, 03:02 PM
Incredible to see Pvris top 40!
Posted by: burbe 23rd February 2016, 03:22 PM
When We Were Young looks around #12-13 when combined - so the Brits should give it that push into the top 10!
Posted by: mr_pmt 23rd February 2016, 03:25 PM
All Saints really shouldn't have released on a Tuesday if they were to stand any chance of scraping a chart entry.
Mike Posner up to #5, will probably take #4 in the next update.
Posted by: JosephStyles 23rd February 2016, 03:27 PM
Riton won't get anywhere near #1, its pre-orders are far from impressive and it needs way better streams...
Posted by: Cody Slayberry 23rd February 2016, 03:55 PM
Can DNCE just go top 40 already? It's too good to flop.
Posted by: Liаm 23rd February 2016, 03:59 PM
I find them a bit cringey, and the song overall is really dull so it's not like it has anything going for it that would allow me to overlook the fact the lyrics are awful!
Posted by: #psychic7 23rd February 2016, 05:19 PM
It will, give it time
I can actually see it having similar-ish success to Maroon 5's SugarPosted by: Envoirment 23rd February 2016, 06:35 PM
#122. Katy B - Who Am I (feat. Craig David & Major Lazor)
Video debuted today, hopefully it'll climb back into the top 100. This is the lead single from the album right? Hopefully it starts moving in airplay and such as it doesn't seem to be getting much support at the moment.

I'm surprised this isn't getting much support given it features two artists radio seem to be loving at the moment!
Posted by: Bjork 23rd February 2016, 06:47 PM
Was TOTD yesterday on R1, good start, sure added soon to the playlist
Posted by: ML Hammer95 23rd February 2016, 07:02 PM
I like 'Who Am I', but with a line-up of Katy B, Craig David & Major Lazer I couldn't have been the only one expecting a huge dance banger!
Posted by: Bjork 23rd February 2016, 07:06 PM
video is not that spectacular
Posted by: Liаm 23rd February 2016, 07:11 PM
Yeah I expected more of it too. It's nice but I can't help but feel a bit disappointed as I was imagining Katy and Craig David on a song like Too Original or Light It Up
Posted by: Bjork 23rd February 2016, 07:13 PM
Mike Posner #4 now
Tiesto up to #22 not sure why, was much lower yesterday I think
Selena Gomez #28
PVRIS #35
Rudimental - Rumour Mill #37 this is doing pretty well
and just outside the top 40
#41 All Saints
#42 Richard Ashcroft
Posted by: mr_pmt 23rd February 2016, 07:14 PM
I honestly think 'Who Am I' is a complete bore. I liked that other track 'Honey' a lot though.
Posted by: Doctor Blind 23rd February 2016, 07:21 PM
Yes! Completely agree- I wish it was “Honey” getting the single treatment. On my personal chart I've basically pretended “Honey” is the single.
Posted by: Envoirment 23rd February 2016, 07:56 PM
Ah that's a good sign then! Guess it's still a few weeks or so until its impact date. Hopefully it'll be playlisted by BBC Radio 1 tomorrow or next week.
Posted by: scratchy23 23rd February 2016, 08:47 PM
Who Am I is such a huge disappointment. It sounds like a filler track from Little Red. She can do SO much better.
I still have high hopes for the album though cos her debut album is absolutely flawless start to finish. Every track absolutely 10/10.

Not much lower, yesterday at #24, moved up 2 places with overtaking the fast declining Viola Beach too.
Posted by: mr_pmt 23rd February 2016, 10:00 PM
I'd like to see 'Out Of The Woods' at least chart, but it's gonna be so hard with this being a 6th single and sales without streams becoming a weaker format in the singles chart with every passing single she releases.
Posted by: scratchy23 23rd February 2016, 10:23 PM
Oh wow Mike Posner has moved up quick!
I think that and Stressed Out will be future #1s.

I'm sure Galantis are ROLLING in the money they've made from the 5 people that have bought the song this week. Slay indeed. *__*
Posted by: mdh 23rd February 2016, 10:29 PM
£5 divided by 2 equals £2.50.
Meaning they each have 29.76 Swedish Krona which is the equivalent of buying 3 pints of milk *.*
Slay indeed.
Posted by: Dan_ 23rd February 2016, 10:34 PM

Slay indeed.
Except they wouldn't make £5 from 5 purchases, when ~70% goes to iTunes/their label.
So that means they get about 75p or 8.93 Swedish kruna each. Not even enough for a single pint of milk.
Posted by: Jaspine Thompson 23rd February 2016, 10:36 PM
Hopefully the Buzzjack campaign to get Electric in the charts can gain Lisa Scott-Lee enough pints of milk to eat a week's supply of coco pops

Is she gonna do that thing again where she doesn't bother making proper music videos for anything outside the first single?
Posted by: Joe. 25th February 2016, 11:43 AM
I'm so pleased Hymn for The Weekend, I really hope is out-peaks Adventure and I'd love it if it could even beat Adele next week as it's far better than 'When We Were Young'.
Posted by: Fruity 25th February 2016, 12:17 PM
Work up to ~0.65 when combined with other versions.

Rihanna completely smashed it last night. Hopefully ANTI will peak higher than #7.
Posted by: sammy01 25th February 2016, 12:57 PM
Rihanna could snatch #1 next week if it keeps increasing. She has already pushed ahead of 7 years on Spotify, if she can over throw him on itunes the next few days she might actually do it.

I can see Rihanna being #1 on the Streaming chart next week but I really don't think she will get close to becoming the sales #1. I can see how spending a couple of weeks at #2
Posted by: timjimlee 25th February 2016, 03:23 PM
Really doubt Rihanna will be number 1 next week, the performance was mediocre IMO and the percentage rises have been steady but nothing spectacular.
Lukas Graham will be number 1 overall next week.

Best song inside the Top 10 right now. The video really reminds me of the video for 'Get Busy', celebrating Toronto's dancehall heritage.

Shame the BRITs effect can't usurp Lukas Graham from the top spot
Posted by: marcin 25th February 2016, 10:20 PM
Dear God, this Rihanna track can even hardly be called a song, how can anyone on Earth like it let alone buy it?
It's a proof that music means nothing nowadays.

Certain snobbishness here. The beauty of music is in the eye of the beholder!
Posted by: JosephStyles 25th February 2016, 10:31 PM
Well said! Music is all based on opinion, I rather like the Rihanna song, much better than most of the stuff on Talk That Talk/Unapologetic IMO.
Posted by: mr_pmt 25th February 2016, 10:33 PM

I don't think it's exactly fair to tar the ENTIRE music scene with the same brush just based on this one song.

I think if anything, 'Work' proves that Rihanna still has what it takes to sell a record by name. Regardless of personal opinions on the song, it's still not exactly something you'd expect to be an instant hit, if a hit at all, but Rihanna has got people interested in it all the same.
Posted by: Serg Mix 25th February 2016, 10:54 PM
Work is a great song but that performance was emberassing.
Posted by: Scene 25th February 2016, 10:59 PM
Very true - although I actually love Talk That Talk and don't really get the hate for it.
I know it was definitely a step down from the brilliance of Loud but 'Birthday Cake', 'Cockiness' and 'We Found Love' were all monsters for me. Unapologetic was a misfire though imo, bar 'Pour It Up'.I didn't like 'Work' at first but I think it's an acquired taste. Fair enough, it's not exactly ground-breaking but the chorus is so infectious.
Posted by: Jaspine Thompson 25th February 2016, 11:04 PM
Yes.
I have a feeling that it wouldn't have been a hit if by someone else.
Posted by: 777666jason 25th February 2016, 11:12 PM
Personally this is the first time i actually hate a rihanna song seriously 
even bbhmm was 1000 times better than this
Posted by: ML Hammer95 25th February 2016, 11:15 PM
Of course it wouldn't. This type of music wouldn't be getting blanket play over Radio 1 and Capital if it wasn't by Rihanna and featuring Drake. Rihanna/Drake is quite the power collab as well.
Posted by: burbe 25th February 2016, 11:16 PM
It's highly unlikely Work would trouble the top 100 if it had been by a smaller artist. I'm glad it seems to be going down well though - it's great to have urban music high in the charts.
Posted by: sammy01 25th February 2016, 11:17 PM
The thing is no one as commercial and mainstream as Rihanna would release a song like Work. It should be applauded she has the guts to release something with patois lyrics and is island sounding, as that is essentially Rihanna.
She could so easily release another Clavin Harris banger but she hasn't done that now for a long time. Her sound and music has evolved and is much more her as a person than generic dance music (though she did that to a top class standard too).
Also it is not like Rihanna hasn't had her fair share of under performing songs too, it isn't as if she actually has a big 'stan base' she generally is one of the few artists who the general public will accept and buy into if the deem the music good enough, which evidently people think Work is. It is also why her albums sell slow and steady as she has to convince the general public the album is worthy of their money, she doesn't have a huge built in fanbase who buy any and everything.

Agree with this, good post.

Meh, I prefer her club bangers to Work.
