How did Bruno get so high, so fast?! :o

Because he's Bruno? :P

 

Fall Out Boy seem to have progressed at an almost identical speed in the USA as in the UK, they were #10 then #5 then #3 then #2 at roughly the same time (and I doubt they'll get #1 in either as Macklemore is too far ahead). Looking on their Wiki discography page they've actually had oddly similar UK/US peaks with a lot of their singles:

 

- 'Sugar, We're Goin Down' #8 in both

- 'Dance, Dance' #8 UK, #9 US

- 'This Ain't A Scene, It's An Arms Race' #2 in both

- 'Thnks Fr Th Mmrs' #11 US, #12 UK

- 'Beat It' #19 US, #21 UK

- 'America's Suitehearts' #76 UK, #78 US

Little Mix are already at #141 on US iTunes with 'Wings'! They just put a tweet out saying it's now available, about 1 hour ago.

96. Little Mix - Wings

 

 

96. Little Mix - Wings

now up to #74

 

I wonder how the Saturdays must be feeling :lol:

 

 

 

Go on Little Mix! Really finding it quite hilarious how Little Mix are significantly outperforming The Saturdays despite doing far less (if any) promo. Happy about it as well though. 'Wings' is a great song whereas 'What About Us' is just decent. I get the feeling The Sats would have done a lot better if they'd just released 'Higher', despite how old that is now. Don't think they ever had a chance of smashing no matter what they released though. They've actually done a lot better than I'd have ever predicted.

 

'Wings' to #67, by the way.

 

Had a little :o when I saw 'R.I.P. (feat.' in the top 40 but alas, it's Young Jeezy feat. 2 Chainz not Rita Ora feat. Tinie Tempah. to #39.

G'WON LITTLE MIX! :heart:

DEPRESSED.

Little Mix at #53, nearly top 50 :D

 

Your Saturdays faves could NEVER.

up to 51 now... I can't believe Little Mix outperformed the Saturdays with zero promotion, except the fact that they're backed by Simon Cowell of course which makes all the difference..

I think many people may know Little Mix, thanks to Perrie and Zayn relationship, and last Zayn action give Perrie in every single american magazine a lot of promotion ;)

Yeah, sometimes the gift of Tumblr/YouTube/Twitter can help more than actual promotion. One Direction have a massive worldwide fanbase made up of teenage girls who will automatically know of Perrie and Little Mix and either love them or hate them.

'Wings' falling already - back down to #55. Not gonna get near the Hot 100 yet, but it's still a strong start. Vaguely interesting other positions:

 

123. Emeli Sandé - Next to Me

186. Skylar Grey - C’mon Let Me Ride (feat. Eminem)

543. Marina and The Diamonds - How to Be a Heartbreaker

758. The Saturdays - What About Us

 

I don't think it'll be too long before we see Emeli top 100, I'll say a fortnight at most. I'm really beginning to think Skylar's sell-out single has failed her, though.

'Sweet Nothing' is up to #10 on the Hot 100 this week :cheer: :cheer: :cheer: No idea how it's managed it as it's #10 on streaming, #15 on airplay and outside the top 10 on sales which doesn't seem to quite add up to top 10 overall, but I won't question Billboard's calculations here :P So so happy to see Calvin get a top 10 as the lead artist and Florence also getting her first top 10. With a fantastic song as well.

 

And according to the Billboard website, with 'Don't You Worry Child' also at #6 it's the first time ever that there have been two dance songs in the same top 10 :o

? Are they using a ridiculously specific definition of the term "dance" just to have something interesting to write? Even off the top of my head I'm pretty sure 'Party Rock Anthem' and 'Sexy And I Know It' were top 10 during gift card week 2011.

I think they're saying "dance" meaning two songs where the lead artists are EDM producers. There's probably been 6 or more in the top 10 at some point before if you count all the songs by a singer or rapper that are EDM.

 

Little Mix are #83 in the pop airplay chart (and coincidentally Cover Drive are #84 with their Far East Movement collab). I can see both those songs doing well in the rhythmic airplay chart too.
