Surprised no Spice Girls yet, given that Wonderwall was after them, and that's at 38.

I doubt they'll do much, everyone who wanted that song will have it by now.

A new version of 'One Day Like This' with The London Symphony Orchestra and Urban Voices Collective is being released through the closing ceremony compilation so hopefully that'll be another version floating around highish.

 

Ed Sheeran's cover of 'Wish You Were Here', Kaiser Chiefs' cover of 'Pinball Wizard' and Russell Brand's 2 covers are also on there, so I'd expect them to make some impact.

Yes yes yes YES YES AT ELBOW!! When they played it I was hoping it would finally get the chart position it deserves :D Ridiculous that it's never even gone top 30 before!

Olympics, top 100

70. Elbow 'Open Arms'

 

Elbow have another song? :unsure:

 

:kink:

 

Obviously thrilled for One Day Like This, it could finally break not only the top 30 but the top 20 too! which will make its chart run even more bizarre, but its peak will finally be truly reflective of its popularity

I think One Day Like This could get top 10 this week (then again, we saw what happened to Far East Movement :drama:).

I think they'll get it, the ceremony is probably going to repeated a few times.

Has that amazing cover of Imagine by Emeli Sande been released yet? :wub:

Wonderwall taking off around the world ;) again

 

Oasis-Wonderwall; #34 UK, #131 Italy, #105 Belgium, #102 Germany, #63 Ireland, #25 Spain, #48 France, Netherlands #45, #53 Canada, #137 Norway, #117 Switzerland

 

So so so so thrilled about One Day Like This finally looking like getting the chart position it deserves :wub:

 

Hope it can climb even higher but the fact its looking at top 10 is good enough for me! <3

Has that amazing cover of Imagine by Emeli Sande been released yet? :wub:

 

I keep searching for it on iTunes, but there's no sign of it yet! Hopefully it'll appear soon, it is beautiful! :wub:

 

It seems iTunes has now froze probably due to the amount of people downloading songs now that the ceremony has finished, so expect big changes when iTunes catches up with itself! Emeli and Kate for top 10 please!

Oasis albums are going up :)

 

# 34 (what's the story) Morning Glory?

#128, #162 Time Flies 1994-2009

I don't think iTunes has froze since I see Survival or Imagine going up.
