March 20, 201115 yr Err, that was me, and I said he didn't have any big hits. None of those were big - especially in the 90s where the spread of new entries at the top was much higher. They were minor hits at best. Ah right. :) Thanks. Yeah, I misunderstood you. And then I saw his discography. I was so confused. Silly me! :lol: Amazing how he's gradually climbed to the heights he's at today over all those years! :o Edited March 20, 201115 yr by Eric_Blob
March 20, 201115 yr Author The UK Top 5 Album Chart http://www3.hmv.co.uk/hmv/Large_Images/HMV/XLCD520.JPG 01 Adele - 21 02 Adele - 19 03 Jessie J - Who You Are 04 The Vaccines - What Did You Expect From The Vaccines? 05 The Overtones - Good Ol' Fashioned Love
March 20, 201115 yr Adele has the top 2 albums again :D Shame The Vaccines dropped to 4, I was hoping they'd get #3 :( Ah well. At least they're top 5. Chipmunk & Chris are having a pretty decent chart run so far. Edited March 20, 201115 yr by Bray
March 20, 201115 yr Although this is the first Black Eyed Peas single since 2003 not to use a sample! Did "The Time (Dirty Bit)" actually sample "(I've Had) The Time Of My Life" by Bill Medley & Jennifer Warnes, or just sing a couple of the same lines? I thought it was the latter but I'm not 100% sure -- Richard

March 20, 201115 yr That Snoop Dogg song is awful apart from the Felix sample and the shout out to the "Holiday Inn", therefore I'll just listen to the 1992 original instead. :P I'm listening to both! :D There's another song someone posted in the iTunes chart which sampled it too, and I'm loving that now also. :lol:
March 20, 201115 yr Did "The Time (Dirty Bit)" actually sample "(I've Had) The Time Of My Life" by Bill Medley & Jennifer Warnes, or just sing a couple of the same lines? I thought it was the latter but I'm not 100% sure -- Richard It's technically an interpolation rather than a sample, yes.
March 20, 201115 yr The Naked and Famous enter at #25 :( it was Top 20 whole week! Brilliant album deserves to be 24 places higher!
March 20, 201115 yr Did "The Time (Dirty Bit)" actually sample "(I've Had) The Time Of My Life" by Bill Medley & Jennifer Warnes, or just sing a couple of the same lines? I thought it was the latter but I'm not 100% sure -- Richard Well, they sampled the melody, chord progression and the lyrics from that song in the hooks. Although the instrumental is different. And in the verses, one of the instruments they used is sampled from deadmau5's remix of Medina. Awesome song though. Probably in my top 30 from 2010. I really enjoy it still. :heart:

March 20, 201115 yr Author OMG Screamadelica is a re-entry at #38 on albums! does anyone know why? They are touring playing the whole album at the gigs.
March 20, 201115 yr I sill think this is one of the most supremely well-written and classic sounding pop singles we've had in the charts for a while. Still growing on me after all this time :lol:
March 20, 201115 yr Don't think Grenade will have as long a run as JTWYA - I reckon maybe another 7 or 8 weeks Top 40 for it.
March 20, 201115 yr If we're going to do this sampling thing for every song, I think that piano-esque melody in Grenade sounds similar to the piano in Clocks by Coldplay (which is almost as boring as Grenade :lol:).
