Wow at Train grabbing a second top ten hit 11 years after the first :o Hey Soul Sister should have been a top ten hit too though of course...

Train really have turned around the one hit wonder status they held for 9 years. I can't think of any artist in a similar situation.

In the US, Kylie Minogue did something similar. Until 2001 and CGYOOMH, her only US hit as "The Loco-motion".

Train can count for the recent trend of artists returning to prominence years after they first had it then? (They already did with Hey, Soul Sister seeing as that outsold DOJ(TM) I know but getting a second top 10 hit is a pretty big thing!)

2012 10 Drive By

I much prefer Hey, Soul Sister (including Glee's version), but this is such a feel good song

Love this Train song, it's absolutely EVERYWHERE at the moment. Didn't think they'd ever match the peak of Drops of Jupiter. Wonder if Radio 1 will ever playlist them again though?

 

Yes at Train getting top 10 :cheer:

So chuffed Drive By is top 10! Alex Clare too - 2 great climbers this week ^_^

Robyn? She wasn't a one hit wonder as such but she'd only had one top ten hit in the UK before With Every Heartbeat, Be Mine and Dancing On My Own and it was over 9 years prior to With Every Heartbeat.

If this keeps climbing on Itunes, Train could even reach a new singles peak next week! :o

 

This is really growing on me

Are they showing the video? :lol:

Nope

No, they're still showing that old one they had. :lol:

This Minaj song has a good intro, it's a pity about the rest of the song.

 

Talking about good intros, be sure to enter this week's edition of Never Mind the Buzzjacks, hosted by yours truly (i.e me). Just guess the intro and you could enter the Buzzjack annals of winning an edition of NMTBJ.
