On the Scott Mills breakfast show last week he said that if he gets to #1 officially he'll come straight over to the UK. :w00t: :w00t: Live PSY performances in the UK! :lol:

 

He will most likely get to #1. It's being played constantly on the Xtra factor too if that's much help :lol: I would love to see K-Pop cross over in the UK, but I feel it'll just be a 1-off much like "Macarena".

The Fray up to #18, top 40 should be secured for them now, would be nice to see it get a new peak for the year (got to #34 with a 59p boost earlier in the year).

 

Stuff from tonight's XF:

28. I Won't Give Up - Jason Mraz

40. Payphone (feat. Wiz Khalifa) - Maroon 5

50. I Can't Make You Love Me (Live) - ADELE

54. I Can't Make You Love Me - George Michael

57. Jar of Hearts - Christina Perri

67. Payphone - Maroon 5

76. With or Without You - U2

85. Tea and Toast - Big Hits 2012

88. I Need - Maverick Sabre

95. Last Night (Beer Fear) [A Tribute to Lucy Spraggan] - Big Hits 2012

99. Believe - Cher

 

I don't know where the versions of 'Payphone' were before but I assume they're climbing, probably means a climb on the official chart as well then <_<

 

:drama: @ two Lucy Spraggan fakes in the top 100.

 

Bonnie Raitt's original 'I Can't Make You Love Me' is at #101, poor her having two covers much higher :P Good to see Adele overtaking George, hope she can get her 11th top 100 hit with this this week!

 

EDIT: Actually pretty sure John Denver 'Annie's Song' must be recharting for a different reason so removed it from the list.

I think you'll be pleased to know that they haven't climbed too much.

 

Glad Jason is moving up so fast! to #25 now with other versions at #208, #301 & #416. The song is currently 59p, so I hope that will give it even more of a push. Would love to see it re-enter the top 40 :wub:

Nos 3 to 7 on iTunes you can't really separate them, talk about tight, fun., could end up #3

Hate how 'How To Save A Life' gets all the attention when 'Over My Head' is quite clearly the best thing The Fray have recorded.

Paloma Faith #16 & #93

 

Lana Del Rey #46

Completely agree. I will never understand the appeal of 'How To Save A Life'. The verses are so incredibly dreary I feel tired just thinking about the song. :D

41. I Can't Make You Love Me (Live) - ADELE

Coming for that top 40! This is probably helped by the fact it isn't on either of her albums, just the 'iTunes Festival - London 2011' EP.

Cher - Believe #86

 

Timeless classic. Gary bashing it on X Factor means nothing :wub:

I don't know if you're joking or not, but THIS. Hope she can get back in the top 40 and smash with the new single when it gets released in a month or two.

Definitely not joking :lol: Absolutely adore the song!

lol. What did Gary say about Believe on X Factor? :lol:

That it was in the top 5 most annoying songs of all time. But Ella did a gorgeous version, even if she messed up/changed some of the lyrics.

Really? I used to hear it every day on the radio when I was little, and I honestly never found it annoying. :lol:

It's pretty much the first song I can remember loving properly apart from Michael Jackson and The Jackson 5's back catalogues. :o

 

Still hasn't lost any of its appeal over a decade later!

It's similar to what's successful in the charts today tbh, but a lot better.

 

Infact, a lot of the chart music now is similar to what I used to hear when I was in infant school. Let Me Love You, for example, reminds me of Blue by Eiffel 65 (another song which I used to hear every day), because they both have the piano arpeggios, and have similar instrumental breakdowns, and are a similar tempo, but Let Me Love You sounds just so false in comparison, and it's nowhere near as euphoric. That's just my opinion though.

The Script are up to 80% and PSY is decreasing. Maybe the impossible might happen.

I'm confident Gangnam Style (강남스타일) will get #1. The only way it won't get #1 is if it doesn't sell enough.

I heard Starboy Nathan was on X Factor aswell. How weird is that, I thought he'd be too famous to go on there! :lol:

I saw him in the West End of London a few months ago.

Yeah, I think I remember you mentioning that before. Well, you better vote for him if he gets to the finals then. :coffee:

 

It makes you wonder. I hope to see people like Sox, JME, Scorcher, etc. on there next year. The show needs livening up tbh.
