the way some people talk about Don't Stop Believin' like it's a new song, it's almost as if nobody had ever heard of it before Joe performed it on X Factor :lol:
In what sense? They are #5 or #6 on iTunes singles chart.

 

Reggie said they were the most downloaded song ever on Itunes, with over 2 million downloads in the US

 

Although I wouldnt be surprised if he was one

 

 

 

 

can't believe alicia keys finally has a 2nd single which has outpeaked her 1st single! alicias year !
first time Alicia's ever had consecutive top ten hits - 3 in a row actually if you count the original ESOM, two otherwise which is still a personal best

Precocious R&B vocalist/pianist Alicia Keys was hand-picked by Clive Davis as one of the flagship artists for his post-Arista label, J Records. No doubt he was as impressed by her multitude of skills (Keys took a large role in the writing, arranging, and production of her debut album) as by her music, which mates contemporary hip-hop accoutrements to an old-school soul sensibility a la Jill Scott or D'Angelo. Only 20 years old at the time of the album's release, Keys already seemed poised for a major career built upon her soulful voice and classically trained piano chops. While hip-hop played a much bigger role on her second effort, 2003's THE DIARY OF ALICIA KEYS, it was a smash nonetheless, and subsequent recordings have further pushed the boundaries of R&B - HMV

the "TV influenced music fans" probably would think so, my parents had absolutely no idea of it until it was played on the XF

Shame JLS missed the top 5 this week. :(

I have a feeling JLS will peak at number 6 now.. they will fall over next few weeks

Could possibly get higher though during release week

easily JLS' best single to date, I love the trance influence in it

The BRITs will give them a boost though - even if they don't sing OS. I don't think they'll make top 5 next week though with Jedward and all.

Whoever wrote that 'da da da' bit in One Shot must of been having a laugh!

Average pop tune from RIhanna who should have released the tune "Hard" which is the big radio hit here in the US.
