Onto quarter three of 2010;

Gorillaz – On Melancholy Hill [Peaked at #78 in July 2010]
The British virtual band weren’t so chart successful this era as the previous two. This flop failed to make it into the Top 40 by some margin, but they were able to have a Top 40 single before the end of the year.



Justin Bieber – Somebody To Love [Peaked at #33 in July 2010]
Justin Bieber fever was everywhere in 2010, and perhaps this single deserved to do better than its #33 peak. Even an Usher remix wasn’t able to get it any higher.



Diana Vickers – The Boy Who Murdered Love [Peaked at #36 in July 2010]
X Factor contestant Diana Vickers followed up her #1 hit with this single that struggled to get any higher than a few places within the Top 40.



Klaxons – Echoes [Peaked at #55 in August 2010]
Whilst this band were able to have some chart success back in 2007, they were not able to do as well with this single three years later.



The xx – Islands [Peaked at #34 in September 2010]
It climbed and it climbed, but the peak it managed was #34, which perhaps was about right for a song from an unknown band at the time, but it’s legacy suggests it should have done better.



Nick Jonas – Introducing Me [Peaked at #51 in September 2010]
A first solo effort by Jonas Broher Nick, from the soundtrack to Camp Rock 2. It would be a few years later that he would push his own solo material to the public, but at least this one set him up a little.



Scissor Sisters – Any Which Way [Peaked at #81 in September 2010]
A failed attempt for Scissor Sisters, whose only hit this era was Fire With Fire. Perhaps if this had been pushed more with some promotion it could have stood a chance of another Top 40 hit.
