Wow, I'm really surprised at We'll Be Coming Back being #1 in Ireland, I was certain it'd flop there! (Wiley is at #19, doing about as well as I thought he would). Hopefully a good sign Cavin could still beat Wiley to #1 here but I won't hold my breath.

 

Incredible Irish top 3! Calvin/Example, Florence and Of Monsters And Men (so Calvin kind of has both of the top 2).

 

YAP! A perfect top 3!

What was the christmas song that was played at one point last night? I don't seem to recognise it in the above list?

 

EDIT

 

Doesn't matter, found it lol

Edited by Oliver

:up: 69 Big Tunes 2012 - Heatwave (Tribute to Wiley and Ms. D)

 

This will definitely go to #1. British songs rarely have fake versions enter the top 100. The last song was 'Call My Name' by Cheryl which obviously went to #1.

 

:up: 93 Cheryl - Under The Sun

 

Not climbing fast due to Olympic songs overtaking it, plus the weekend effect working against it. Still isn't being played on TV much yet, only really on Chart Show TV.

 

:up: 131 Fun. - Some Nights

 

Great to see this so high already. If it gets airplay support this should go top 10 easily, won't be as big as 'We Are Young' though.

William Pitt - City Lights

 

Woah, did anyone spot that? One of my favourite 80s disco songs. The irony is, I'm 99% sure he's American :lol:

 

Thanks for the link and the rundown vidcapper :D

I wonder why Elbow's Olympics track isn't available on iTunes, most bizarre. They must be missing out on loads of sales from the hype last night.
