January 29, 201214 yr Troublemaker is actually growing on me (although I'm eager to hear Hangover now). Verses aren't... too bad. Although Levels is obviously much better, no generic lazy chorus and a lot of shimmering instrumental.
January 29, 201214 yr That was quite a smooth transition between songs! "Levels" still sounds amazing in a club. I remember hearing it there for the first time and thinking it'd be completely huge. I wasn't quite right, but the success of "Good Feeling" more than makes up for that. The combined sales of the two will probably be around a million by the time they leave the chart?
January 29, 201214 yr 15 (from 7) Avicii - Levels [D] http://cdn.hmvdigital.com/static/img/sleeveart/00/014/632/0001463259_100.jpg Chart Run: 4-5-8-7-9-12-4-4-7-15 [10 wks] Release date: 20-11-2011 Format: download only single Label: Universal Music B.V.

January 29, 201214 yr I really think iTunes should really stop reducing songs to 59p. It completely spoils half-decent chart runs, and stops others placing as high as they could have without the reductions.
January 29, 201214 yr She's had 4 weeks less sales than 1D so she could easily surpass them in terms of having more sales for the same amount of weeks. How's she going to make up 100,000 in 4 weeks? Approx. 25,000 is what the likes of + and 21 are selling at the top of the charts, not albums where the Ferguson one is
January 29, 201214 yr I'll predict; 01 Cover Drive 02 David Guetta & Sia 03 Jessie J 04 Rizzle Kicks 05 Flo Rida & Sia 06 Flo Rida 07 Swedish House Mafia v Knife Party 08 Kelly Clarkson 09 Gotye & Kimbra 10 Pitbull & Chris Brown 11 Lana Del Rey 12 Labrinth & Tinie Tempah 13 Lloyd & Andre 3000 14 Olly Murs
January 29, 201214 yr Troublemaker is actually growing on me (although I'm eager to hear Hangover now). Verses aren't... too bad. Although Levels is obviously much better, no generic lazy chorus and a lot of shimmering instrumental. Have you not heard Hangover yet? It sounds very much like Good Feeling. I'm not sure if it'll be a single here, but even if it isn't, I'm sure it'll be cherry-picked loads.
January 29, 201214 yr Glad Lana isn't top ten. Over rated to the max. Remember when people predicted this to be #1? :lol:
January 29, 201214 yr I really think iTunes should really stop reducing songs to 59p. It completely spoils half-decent chart runs, and stops others placing as high as they could have without the reductions. Better would be to keep them all at 59p and stop being such a bloody rip-off!
January 29, 201214 yr Have you not heard Hangover yet? It sounds very much like Good Feeling. I'm not sure if it'll be a single here, but even if it isn't, I'm sure it'll be cherry-picked loads. No. That doesn't fill me with confidence, though, although its reportedly less generic. Lana only #14. :( Shame, I think it's far better than Video Games, but it clearly isn't as popular nor will be as long-lasting, and would have been an amazing #1 (:cry:, but I do prefer Cover Drive somehow). A similar thing happened with Ed Sheeran for me.
January 29, 201214 yr Labrinth has climbed :cheer: I'll predict the top 13 as well, why not: 1 Cover Drive 2 David Guetta/Sia 3 Jessie J 4 Rizzle Kicks 5 Flo Rida/Sia 6 Swedish House Mafia/Knife Party 7 Kelly Clarkson 8 Gotye/Kimbra 9 Pitbull/Chris Brown 10 Flo Rida 11 Labrinth/Tinie Tempah 12 Lloyd/André 3000/Lil Wayne 13 Olly Murs Shame to see Lana so low, although it's not as good as Video Games. Hoping for longevity. Edited January 29, 201214 yr by Bré

Approx. 25,000 is what the likes of + and 21 are selling at the top of the charts, not albums where the Ferguson one is Sorry I didn't mean literally the next 4 weeks, I just thought she would be able to eventually gain on them. However now that I have looked where they are in the charts it seems very unlikely :lol:
January 29, 201214 yr Levels is one of those songs that just makes me SO happy, and it's not getting old anytime soon... AT ALL. :wub: YAY, thank god this didn't live up to many predictions :lol:

January 29, 201214 yr Disappointing for Lana. The Retro-chic makeover by the RC hasn't fooled the public it seems. Wonder how the album will fare now?
January 29, 201214 yr I really think iTunes should really stop reducing songs to 59p. It completely spoils half-decent chart runs, and stops others placing as high as they could have without the reductions. God forbid people getting music for cheaper when it upsets us chart fans! Hopefully Lana's album will be huge to make up for this dramatically underperforming, I'd like to say it's too intense to sell well but I'd imagine it's just because "Video Games" is far more ubiquitous at the moment.
