272. Crazy - Gnarls Barkley [The Risk]

 

As expected, biggest effect for SCYHO, SCOM, PR and LOAP...

Just wondering, does anyone know how high up 'Purple Rain' went after Ruth Lorenzo's performance a few years ago?

 

I bet if it had happened this year the song would probably have went top ten (I don't think X-Factor had much of an effect on iTunes until last year?)

I think it went into the 80s. Not sure though.

 

The vast majority of those song choices tonight were predictable and rubbish - especially Misha's. I predicted Janet would perform TBT's version of SCOM once Rock week was announced.

449. Read All About It (feat. Emeli Sandé) - Professor Green

686. Earthquake (Radio Edit) - Labrinth

772. When I Was a Youngster - Rizzle Kicks

 

 

Labrinth track will be top 5 for sure, great tune.

129. Read All About It (feat. Emeli Sande) - Professor Green

150. Earthquake (Full Version) (feat. Tinie Tempah) - Labrinth

215. When I Was A Youngster - Rizzle Kicks

278. Earthquake (Radio Edit) (feat. Tinie Tempah) - Labrinth

779. You Make Me Feel... (feat. Sabi) - Cobra Starship

Oh bloody hell, gorgeous though it is I'm not sure I want "Stop Crying Your Heart Out" back in the top 40 as someone will inevitably claim the Leona cover is better than the original at some point. At said point, my head will probably explode.

dammit, didn't know Labrinth had so many versions :( hopefully, Green will keep ahead of the main one until XF, I still think this battle is far from over

97. Read All About It (feat. Emeli Sandé) - Professor Green

109. Earthquake (Full Version) - Labrinth

164. When I Was a Youngster - Rizzle Kicks

200. Earthquake (Radio Edit) - Labrinth

 

Labrinth probably ahead combined, plus his EP is at #2 and Green's is at #3. Green's bloody XF performance will obviously seal the #1 for him though :angry: But hopefully Labrinth can put up a good fight. Great start for both, RK not doing too badly either.

I don't mind Green or Labrinth at number one tbh, both excellent songs.

If Professor Green and Labrinth get the top 2, it'll be the best top 2 since Wretch 32/Emeli Sande imo.

86. Read All About It (feat. Emeli Sandé) - Professor Green

103. Earthquake (Full Version) - Labrinth

146. When I Was a Youngster - Rizzle Kicks

167. Earthquake (Radio Edit) - Labrinth

Professor Green, Labrinth, Rizzle Kicks, Cobra Starship should all go top 10 I think. The only other top 40 entries I can see us getting are Beyonce and Oasis, and possibly Coldplay.

Coldplay will definitely have one entry (Paradise) and probably another as well (Princess Of China).

I hope Countdown rockets up the chart. I'd love it to be another top 5 hit for Beyonce.

There's a Coldplay song called Charlie Brown aswell, which is high on every other countries iTunes for some reason. :unsure:

I think they've performed CB live a few times so it's sort of already well known.

 

I wouldn't be surprised if quite a few album tracks go top 100 on iTunes here although POC will definitely be the highest obviously.
