I'm so happy for Florence & The Machine's sudden success! The track may not be their best effort but it's still an incredibly good version of this classic song. I haven't heard that Riverside tune yet I'm thrilled it's pushed the awful Gaga out of the spotlight. And speaking of awful music... Iyaz in the Top 5? Damn! :angry:

 

Iyaz - #4, #186

Riverside - #2, #142, #154

 

 

Riverside's an immense song. Glad it's doing well, though I don't really rate that version of it too much myself... much prefer the original one where it's just music and the odd "riverside mother f***er" in it. :w00t:

 

Riverside #2

Iyaz #3

I must be really out of touch, for I have not one single clue for the hell Iyaz and Sidney Samson are. Where did they come from?

From hell-I am sorry to say I think they are just doing well because both videos are full of half naked women and they are both all over the music channels.They are both such awful songs.Florence may have done a cover but she has done it so well.I still hope she can cling on to No 1.

So glad I'm not the only one who thinks Iyaz's song is awful. So generic, don't see the appeal at all! :mellow:

 

Sidney Samson's song I'm pretty indifferent too tbh.

Riverside is now #1! Took 14 hours only :o

so looks like the first new #1 of the decade will go to a Dutch DJ - roll on the European domination for 2010!

Cant stand that Riverside song, I dont know how its doing so good tbh

I pretty much agree with this. I don't mind 'Riverside (Let's Go)' but I don't regard it as a genius dance track and no way does it deserve to be massive. Even 'Day N' Nite' by Kid Cudi Vs Crookers from last January was better and I didn't think that was brilliant either.

That Riverside song is AWFUL. Please, don't let it be the first #1 of 2010

I must be really out of touch, for I have not one single clue for the hell Iyaz and Sidney Samson are. Where did they come from?

they are just doing well because both videos are full of half naked women and they are both all over the music channels.They are both such awful songs.

 

There isn't an eyeroll big enough for all these comments.

 

It is doing well as it originated in various holiday destinations and basically became the song of the summer. It then came over here and has been the biggest track in clubs for months. So these comments are just bizzare. Have a holiday and night out.

 

Oh and saying it is successful for the half naked women in the video is a joke, I doubt half the people who have bought it have even seen the video.

FOOK OFF with your patronising $h!t.

 

Just because something was popular in clubs doesn't automatically mean it's any good.

You might aswell argue Westlife are one of the most talented bands we've ever had - they were popular with the housewife brigade after all.

Yeah Riverside is really old. It's been in clubs for ages and that's its selling point.

It could be a holiday tune... but not a good one. I have to agree with the negative comments. Thumbs down from me too.

The top ten is getting worse and worse... 3 or 4 songs are good (BR TT MMHW RR) and even these are getting boring... Everybody wants to release before christmas and as a result we have many fruitless weeks after christmas. :arrr:

 

btw it is about time we also got rid of the Starstrukk parody :angry:

How agressive of you.

 

It is a good song hence the reason it is number one and has been so popular for months.

I didn't say anything about talent just that is a great song and you need to hear it in a club to appreciate how good it is.

Yeh cause it could really get any worse than Joe McElderry and RATM.
