It sounds more like a chart show ALREADY. But then I haven't listened to Reggie for a while because it makes me want to stab myself.
Er, there was a trance #1 last year...

 

Well I suppose it was trancey, but very infused with electro, which seems the norm these days. Hardly pure trance.

I don't remember one! Do you mean Calvin Harris?

 

I can definitely see trance in I'm Not Alone I suppose.

 

Yes, I do mean I'm Not Alone.

 

The fountain of knowledge that is Wikipedia classifies it as trance (well, electro-pop/trance) so it has to be trance :whistle:

It's not trance, it has some slightly trancy sounding riffs in it but that's different.

Yeah, I'd say it's more electropop, with trance as a secondary genre.

 

Although, to be fair, nearly all the songs in the chart cross-over into more than one genre. It has to be that way, in order to appeal to a wider audience.

I whip my hair back and forth x 100 is painful! Who was the youngest person to get a top 3 hit in recent years?
I have horrible visions of Kylie being like #32 today, and even if it isn't it won't be much higher. :(

I'm amazed it charted it all. It's so boring. I'm still crying that "Get Outta My Way" missed the top 10. All my favorite songs seem to have missed the top 10 this year, Ke$ha, Will.I.AM & Nicki Minaj, Kylie - what is the world coming to :cry:

Windell Beneto Edwards became the singer known as Gyptian when he left his rural home in St. Andrew, Jamaica, and travelled to Portmore. Combining hypnotic nyahbinghi drums with lyrics that plead for an end to violence and crime, his first single, "Serious Times," exploded across Jamaica. After being presented with enough socially conscious music and old-school lovers rock to fill a full-length, Gyptian made his debut in 2006 with My Name Is Gyptian on the VP label. Two years later he returned with I Can Feel Your Pain. In 2010 his massive Jamaican hit "Hold You," taken from the album of the same name, put him back in the spotlight. - HMV

I've not heard Greg James before as I never catch the midweek update or anything, but already I can tell he's SO much better than Reggie (not hard), and probably even Scott Mills. Please let him do this permanently. :wub:

I think it's Bieber (born 1994).

I really like Better Than Today. All the Lovers was the boring one for me, although I agree Get Outta My Way should've definitely gone top 10.

 

And I'm also still devasted that Check It Out didn't go top 10, although I'm happy Higher did.

Gregg James is so hot, glad he's doing the chart show today.
Not keen on this one. Quite surprised this crossed over into the top 20 actually, sounds a bit niche.
