I hate Biffy Clyro! Hate him more now that he's 40 in the chart, Sake ! Awful At Titp, seriously were.

 

I wonder how many times Simon Neil has gone to a media interview and been called "Biffy Clyro" B)

 

indeed it's not their best song and OR isn't their best material but it's miles better than "I want to be Will Young" at the top of the chart or pretty much most in the higher reaches actually

One of the more promising grime artists to arise from the Bow area of East London, Tinchy Stryder made his full-length album debut in 2007 and also performed as a member of the group Ruff Sqwad. Stryder initially established himself with a 2003 appearance on Wiley's ICE RINK EP, followed in 2004 by appearances on "Next Level," a song from Wiley's album TREDDIN' ON THIN ICE, and the "MC Version" of the Streets' "Fit But You Know It." Having established his credentials as an up-and-coming grime star, in 2006 Stryder released a pair of mixtapes (I'M BACK U KNOW, LOST & FOUND) and signed a recording contract with the independent label Takeover Entertainment, releasing his debut solo album STAR IN THE HOOD the next year. Stryder's collaboration with N-Dubz, the prophetically titled "Number One", hit the top of the UK singles chart in April '09. - HMV

33 :down: (from 21) Hurts - Wonderful Life [P]

Hurts are Theo Hutchcraft (vocals) and Adam Anderson (guitars, synths), who met while their mates were brawling outside a Manchester club. Initially forming glam-pop group and industry hyped Daggers, the duo realised they wanted to pull back and retain more control of their look and sound, retreating back to Germany and Italy where they perfected their own take on Disco Lento: mainstream pop with a dark undertone (think Leona Lewis’ Bleeding Love; Diana Vickers’ Once).

 

Since posting the original video to Wonderful Life on their YouTube channel just 12 months ago, Hurts have become one of the most talked about bands of the year.

 

The £80 video - £20 of which went on the unknown dancer they found via an advert in the local post office – sparked excitement not only in the music industry, but also with fans of all ages across the internet. Despite attempts to hide the song away, it racked up more than 1 million hits across youtube as fans reposted again and again.

 

Since that one video they have gone on to sign to Sony Music, and see the song become an international hit – topping the charts in Greece and Cyprus, becoming the most played song of the year in Denmark after radio stations ripped it off the internet and tearing up the German airplay charts (it’s currently about to enter the top 10).

 

Despite the excitement, the 2 Manchester-based musicians set up home in a rented basement studio in their Manchester base and – ever perfectionists - worked solidly on the album, Happiness, due to be released on September 6th.

 

Intentionally refusing to release much material, it was the video for Wonderful Life that eventually led to their signing to legendary songwriter (Spice Girls) Biff Stannard’s first label imprint Major Label, after they contacted him online to let him know their favourite Kylie Minogue song (it was Love At First Sight).

 

Since then they’ve been tipped into the Top 5 of the BBC Sound Poll, been on the cover of 4 magazines and received support from everyone from Kylie herself (who tipped their Better Than Love video via her Twitter profile) to Zane Lowe and Radio 1’s Huw Stevens. - HMV
