February 24, 201313 yr People said that about Bingo Players & Far East Movement... What if Capital FM had decided to play the song every 2 hours (it's on the playlist, but I hardly ever hear them play it)? Then it'd still be top 10 right now. We can't always predict how much exposure a song will get. As a general rule, the less generic a song is, the faster it falls, so it was likely that Bingo Players (and also songs like White Noise and My Life) would fall fast, but that's not always the case (see: Thrift Shop).
February 24, 201313 yr The problem I have with JT's music is that I always like the sound of it but I'm never motivated to download it. A lot of his stuff grows on you that's why it so brilliant. Why I first bought his Futuresex/Lovesounds album, I wasn't sure at all and missed "Justified" Justin but its now one of my favorite albums ever. Get's better every listen IMHO.
February 24, 201313 yr This is to Trap as Gangnam Style was to K-Pop. In that no other song from that genre will ever be in the mainstream again, and they're both awful ways to introduce their style of music to the masses.
February 24, 201313 yr The Billboard Hot 100 number 1 <_< Only because of the rule change too! :angry:
February 24, 201313 yr Some of the Harlem Shake videos are funny, some of them are quite hot actually :kink: But this still isn't really a song.
February 24, 201313 yr Oh shame Mirrors couldn't get at least a number 3 position :( But there is always a next week :D

February 24, 201313 yr The Billboard Hot 100 number 1 <_< Ridiculous. Not the song btw, the rule change. Thrift Shop would of been #1 for at least 10 weeks with the previous rules. Edited February 24, 201313 yr by Childish Bambino

February 24, 201313 yr Worst #1 since 'Little Things'! :puke2: I can see this holding on next week as well! :(
February 24, 201313 yr The Billboard Hot 100 number 1 <_< I've never seen such melt-downs before. :lol: Thrift Shop and Harlem Shake are probably the first two consecutive rhythm-based #1s there since the mid-00s. They've been nearly all melody-based in the past few years. Edited February 24, 201313 yr by Eric_Blob

I was going to turn it off after 'Thrift Shop' anyway though. I don't intend to ever listen to the 1D song, I really do not want to hear them murdering 2 classics, I can just imagine it should I ever want to (I won't). :D
February 24, 201313 yr Nice longevity for this song! 4 weeks top 2! Could possibly get a 5th next week if One Direction fall fast enough.
February 24, 201313 yr Yay 1D *.* The "One Way or Another" part is great, despite being a straight cover. I'm not so keen on the "Teenage Kicks" interlude still though. It's Comic Relief's first #1 since 2009 though (or 2007 if you discount the "(Barry) Islands in the Stream" cover due to awfulness/unofficialness) :D
February 24, 201313 yr As I loved "Kiss You" so so much I'm gonna forgive One Direction for murdering these songs and congratulate them on getting Number One. Overall I really like what they do.
February 24, 201313 yr First time in ages where I've had to actually mute the #1 single it's that awful :manson:
