January 16, 201115 yr Is it just me, or does the piano part in 'Grenade' sound like a slowed down version of Clocks by Coldplay? I always thought When Love Takes Over sounded a bit like Clocks too (well, they were very different, but the piano bits). And also the Cahill remix of Need You Now by Agnes samples Clocks. Also, Speed of Sound sounds exactly likes Clocks, just with different words and a diffferent piano melody. :drama: Check It Out is phenomenal!!!! :wub:

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 Video here: YKlCEUngHB0 track listing 1. Hold You [uK radio edit] 2.

January 16, 201115 yr Grenade would be a better record with a beefier production. Sounds like a demo to me.

January 16, 201115 yr I love 'Check It Out', will.i.am is a modern legend. And WTF is Gyptian doing in the top 40? And I was shocked when it re-entered last week!
January 16, 201115 yr How is this still climbing? It sounds like Iyaz, which is not a good thing in my books.
January 16, 201115 yr How has Gyptian climbed again? (I know he's been listed as a climber in the mids but I don't get why he's so high :unsure: As I mentioned last week this is almost an exact repeat of 'Kings And Queens' and its start to 2010)
January 16, 201115 yr How the flamin' hell is this still in the charts. :arrr: Yeah. If I hadn't seen the mid-weeks, I would be really shocked by this (and last week aswell).
January 16, 201115 yr Also, Speed of Sound sounds exactly likes Clocks, just with different words and a diffferent piano melody. :drama: I will admit the piano sounds similar, but apart from that its far more upbeat and has different instruments- so I wouldn't call them 'exactly' the same anyway, hope this is out next week too- how this is climbing is beyond me :puke2: Edited January 16, 201115 yr by chart wizard
January 16, 201115 yr I seriously HATE this, it's so cheap sounding and he sounds retarded. :arrr: Er, it's called a Jamaican accent... :unsure:

January 16, 201115 yr Let It Rain set to be a hit for Tinchy then after the flop of Second Chance I like this, but mainly due to Melanie Fiona. I find his rapping very average Edit: I didn't realise Give It To Me Right missed out on the top 40 by one position :o
