126 DJ Fresh - Gold Dust (Shy FX Edit)

148 Taylor Swift - I Knew You Were Trouble

 

I'm a bit shocked about how low these songs are, especially when they're the next singles and have had good airplay so far! :o

 

-x-

 

Isn't Christina Perri's A Thousand Years at #12 when it's combined?

 

#11, I think 0.1% behind Rihanna at 10. I can't see any others around there with multiple versions. :cry:

Various updates time :magic: With likely old positions.

 

Unapologetic:

33. Right Now (feat. David Guetta) - Rihanna

37. Diamonds - Rihanna

42. Nobody's Business (feat. Chris Brown) - Rihanna

44. Half of Me - Rihanna

55. Numb (feat. Eminem) - Rihanna

68. Stay (feat. Mikky Ekko) - Rihanna

70. Love Without Tragedy / Mother Mary - Rihanna

73. Loveeeeeee Song (feat. Future) - Rihanna

85. No Love Allowed - Rihanna

96. Jump - Rihanna

102. What Now - Rihanna

108. Phresh Out the Runway - Rihanna

124. Pour It Up - Rihanna

132. Lost In Paradise - Rihanna

195. Get It Over With - Rihanna

How many of these will go top 100 officially this week? I could see 'Right Now', 'Nobody's Business' and 'Half Of Me' all doing it easily and possibly 'Numb' as well :o In what world did she think 'Loveeeeeee Song' was a good title though? :drama:

 

Pink Friday - Roman Reloaded - The Re-Up:

50. High School (feat. Lil Wayne) - Nicki Minaj

59. I'm Legit (feat. Ciara) - Nicki Minaj

69. Hell Yeah (feat. Parker) - Nicki Minaj

77. Up In Flames - Nicki Minaj

84. I Endorse These Strippers (feat. Tyga & Thomas Brinx) - Nicki Minaj

109. The Boys - Nicki Minaj & Cassie

114. Freedom - Nicki Minaj

'High School' could scrape official top 100 but probably none of the others? Can't decide if 'I Endorse These Strippers' is an amazing title or an awful one :lol: I see Parker is a Brit, never heard of him before!

 

Now! 83 tracks in the top 200:

30. Gangnam Style - PSY

56. Candy (Radio Edit) - Robbie Williams

58. Don't You Worry Child (Radio Edit) [feat. John Martin] - Swedish House Mafia

71. Beneath Your Beautiful (feat. Emeli Sandé) - Labrinth

87. Hall of Fame (feat. will.i.am) - The Script

99. Sweet Nothing (feat. Florence Welch) - Calvin Harris

101. One More Night - Maroon 5

110. Can You Hear Me - Wiley

116. I Cry - Flo Rida

118. Good Time (feat. Carly Rae Jepsen) - Owl City

122. Bom Bom - Sam and the Womp

136. Let Me Love You (Until You Learn to Love Yourself) - Ne-Yo

143. I Found You - The Wanted

149. Blow Me (One Last Kiss) - P!nk

154. Waterfalls - Stooshe

161. How We Do (Party) - Rita Ora

163. Spectrum (Say My Name) [Calvin Harris Remix Radio Edit] - Florence + The Machine

177. Wings - Little Mix

184. Pound the Alarm - Nicki Minaj

186. She Wolf (Falling to Pieces) [feat. Sia] - David Guetta

Is it just me or is the Now! effect normally a lot bigger than this by this stage? Only 6 tracks in the top 100 so far, although the album has now overtaken Rihanna on the albums chart. I'm sure all these tracks will continue to climb through the week though and pretty much all of the above should probably be in the top 100 within a few days. No surprise to see PSY as the most popular cherrypick, a pleasant surprise that 'Candy' is the second most popular though! Odd that 'I Found You' and especially 'Waterfalls' are so high and ahead of the likes of 'Spectrum' and 'Wings' :o

 

AC/DC top 200:

29. Back In Black - AC/DC

43. Highway to Hell - AC/DC

46. You Shook Me All Night Long - AC/DC

53. Thunderstruck - AC/DC

79. Whole Lotta Rosie - AC/DC

145. Shoot to Thrill - AC/DC

146. It's a Long Way to the Top (If You Wanna Rock 'N' Roll) - AC/DC

157. Hells Bells - AC/DC

167. For Those About to Rock (We Salute You) - AC/DC

174. Thunderstruck - AC/DC

193. Thunderstruck - AC/DC

'Back In Black' should definitely be a strong contender for top 40 and maybe 'Thunderstruck' too with 3 versions top 200 :o

 

Xmas 'classics' top 200 excl. 'The Power Of Love':

64. All I Want for Christmas Is You (Original Version) - Mariah Carey

121. Fairytale of New York - The Pogues & Kirsty MacColl

144. Fairytale of New York (feat. Kirsty MacColl) - The Pogues

188. Last Christmas (Single Version) - Wham!

The Pogues being held back by all the Rihanna/Nicki/Now! 83/AC/DC and whatnot, hope they can get back on track climbing when those start to fall away next week.

 

Unrelated to the above:

63. Silver Lining (crazy 'bout you) [single Version] - Jessie J

Eww at the lack of capitals and eww at Jessie J continuing to exist and apparently be able to sell well on name alone :arrr: This seems to be a song from the film of (almost) the same name.

I think the problem with the Now effect this time is the fact that, for a change, Now 83 is actually piss poor.

She's got another new song out soon with Daley. It's soooo catchy. Hopefully it'll go top 40.

Is it just me or is the Now! effect normally a lot bigger than this by this stage?

 

I think it's because of AC/DC, Rihanna and Nicki all releasing this week, so they have all clogged up the top 200, meaning the tracks from the Now! album are generally lower than what they normally would be. ^_^

I really hope Bruno manages to climb back into the top 5 on iTunes before X Factor. I guess it's too much to ask for Bruno to be #1 at some point?

Why is Waterfalls on NOW 83! anyway? the song is shit and it flopped in the charts

It's pretty medicore, really.

I guess they didn't forsee this flop at the time the tracklisting was compiled. I did though.

Anyone with half a brain saw Waterfalls flopping. I can't believe the Now compilers didn't.

To be fair to "Waterfalls" it's doing better than some of the other tracks on the NOW83 album.

It's pretty medicore, really.

 

I think it's actually one of the most refreshing singles of the year. After the disappointing lead singles such as 'Diamonds', 'Wings', 'Blow Me', 'Something New' and 'Troublemaker', it's nice to finally see an artist come back with material as strong (if not stronger) as before.

 

One of the many things I love about Bruno as a pop artist is the fact that he never follows trends or jumps on bandwagons. He always has his own ideas and own visions. His first album proved that with being ballad heavy despite being released in an era where dance music was dominating. As a new artist, that's a courageous move. Even now, he's shifted away from his old sound slightly (which was immensely popular) and has gone for a 80s-stadium-pop-rock up-tempo for the lead single and I'd say, without a doubt, no other song in the charts sounds like it.

 

I just can't believe a really refreshing song has missed out on a number one while a dull boyband ballad has got there with ease.

I always thought that Waterfalls was going to be Top 20. Oh well.

I just can't believe a really refreshing song has missed out on a number one while a dull boyband ballad has got there with ease.

 

It's not the first time it's happened, and I'm sure it won't be the last.

 

Worst example being 'You Needed Me' by Boyzone. Yes, it's worse than all of Westlife's singles put together. One of the most woeful UK no. 1 hits ever ('I Feel You' by Peter Andre is ultimately the worst imo). Bland beyond belief.

So? I'd rather have a nice boyband song that leaves you feeling refreshed at #1 than a Sting rip-off! :lol:

Really? Look back at the number 1s of 2012 since August, it has been a continuous shower of shite.

I wouldn't say I feel refreshed after listening to 'Little Things'. Tired? Maybe. :P

I don't know. I just feel like everyone's being so cynical about Little Things! :lol:

DNA 12, I know they have another version top 40 now but it'll still not help them hold up well. Hopefully Wings isn't their only success.

I think I'd always choose a Sting rip-off over an Ed Sheeran rip-off. ^_^

 

They sing the song like they are just learning to speak.

Well, let's agree to disagree. I like Ed Sheeran, so maybe I'm biased. ^_^

 

I will say that Little Things merely sounds like an Ed Sheeran song, while Locked Out Of Heaven sounds exactly like a song that is made by The Police or Sting! :lol:
