Why isn't this higher! Really getting into it recently and the advert has some good primetime slots, shame the song isn't quite clicking with the masses :(

Please, Please, Please, Let Me Get What I Want :wub: :wub: :wub:

Is it getting any radio support at all? I'm surprised R1 have snubbed this so far, it sounds right up their street if they're going to support songs like 'Video Games' and 'A Thousand Years'.

I know what you mean :(

I really don't know, maybe because the original is a tiny bit obscure? (No sarcasm intended, I mean very slightly). Definitely my fave of these sort of records anyway :wub:

It's a great song - but I imagine that much like myself, a good portion of its audience haven't heard the original; and see it as just another 2011 ballad.

 

Coincidence that the artist's name is 'Slow Moving Millie' and 36-34 means she's 'Slow[ly] Moving' up the chart.

This is random, but that must be one of the few songs in the chart with a 3/4 time signiture.

 

Shake It Out is such an ANTHEM!

Shake It Out :heart:

I don't think many of the audience would know the original to PPLMGWIW, unlike Your Song, Wherever You Will Go et al.

Really mystified at how this has not been way bigger than it has been. Such a good song.

 

I've heard 'No Light, No Light' a few times and it's okay, but this and 'What The Water Gave Me' are far superior. Hopefully NL,NL can at least keep up their top 55 streak (:lol:)

Glad that Lightning really has bombed down the chart, the most generic and boring song The Unwanted have ever released.

 

I think i'm the only one who LOVES 'Lightning'. It's got a great beat. :D

A Thousand Years! :wub:

Glad Who You Are managed to stay top 40 at #37, hopefully can climb 30 places at least after X Factor tonight, but may have to settle for 20 places. :P

 

You Da One #39 :D

Talk That Talk still yet to be played too :o

Concluding a rather stunning trio. The latter half of the year has been so much better chartwise than the first half of the year...

I am honestly in love with this so much at the moment, so much so that it persuaded me to book tickets to see her in Janurary :wub:

Hasn't Florence&co flopped a bit with this era? The album is probably out of top ten after three weeks whilst Coldplay, Ed Sheeran and Noel Gallagher are doing much better.

:wub:

I very strongly agree (with your last sentance)!!

 

I think I prefer A Thousand Years to Jar of Hearts.

Yeah I guess they have in comparison with the last era. Coldplay have as well though.
