Does anyone actually know the reason 'Rapture' has taken off so much in the last week or so?

I sort of very vaguely kind of understand that but I see no sense in swapping around the 'parts' of the title - I have no idea why people would be more likely to buy 'Stronger (What Doesn't Kill You)' than 'What Doesn't Kill You (Stronger)' :huh: I'm keeping the title as the latter in my chart spreadsheet because that's how it appears on the album tracklisting in any case.

 

I just KNEW this would irritate you! :lol:

It's IRRITATINGLY UNNECESSARY :P

443. Want U Back - Cher Lloyd (+ 176)

 

:cheer: :cheer:

Jessie now just 3% behind Taio and 17% of #1 and still rising very quickly - I think she could get #1 on iTunes which would be amazing! :D

267. Kelly Rowland - Lay It On Me

 

Yay! It's climbing again! :wub:

Somebody That I Use To Know has grown on me so much the last couple weeks, really hope it can go top 3 at least

11. Take Care (feat. Rihanna) - Drake

 

Vying for a return to the top 10 again - this is having a fantastic chart run so far! :D R1 have dropped it from their playlist now though so it may start to drop from next week onwards.

54. Pixie Lott - Kiss the Stars

171. Selena Gomez & the Scene - Hit the Lights

305. Cher Lloyd - Want U Back

14. Home Again - Michael Kiwanuka

80. I'm Getting Ready - Michael Kiwanuka

:D Home Again could even go top 10? The gap to #10 isn't as big as it usually is! :o Still only 3/4 of the way though so unlikely.

 

41. Breakn' a Sweat - Skrillex & The Doors

Heard this on the radio this morning - not Skrillex's best but still really good. Would love to see this top 40 :D

 

60. Pelican - The Maccabees

STILL climbing :o Or at least I think it is, don't recall seeing it top 60 before.

 

86. Somebody That I Used to Know (feat. Kimbra) - Gotye

I hope it can get into the top 10 again!! :D It would be its 4th run in there. I honestly never expected it'd do this. It's not even getting that much radio airplay either. I do hear it a fair bit personally, but I think that's mainly down to my choices of station, and it wasn't in the official airplay top 50 last time I checked. And Rihanna's fans all bought the song like 2 months ago I assume (or even bought the whole album, it's fairly Rihanna-fan-friendly imo).

 

I heard Take Care in a surprising amount of clubs during New Years. I have said on here before that it does have a club beat, although the instrumental doesn't have continuous synths all the way through it like the David Guetta/Red One songs do, so I can appreciate that people wouldn't think of it as a club banger, even if it technically is one. But it seems like the clubs like playing it. I think it would be a great tune to play towards the end. Chill everyone down a bit. :lol:

248. Cher Lloyd - Want U Back

 

Looks like this is going to go top 200 in the next few hours.

I hope Michael goes Top 10 and gets a big boast, I think he could go on to do really well, he reminds me of a male Rebecca Ferguson.

Alex fans dont forget:

So who can't wait for @petetong to give us the PREMIERE of @alexandramusic's Elephant tonight between 9pm-11pm?!

Obviously release week will have the biggest effect because the single version features Astro off US XF!

Yeah, I think it will probably have a big jump on its release week when the remix comes out (like Higher by both The Saturdays and Taio Cruz, All Night Long, Eyes Wide Shut, or an extreme example, Gettin' Over You, etc.).

 

Will that be Astro's first ever chart hit then? He looks so much younger in the music video than he did on X Factor.
