I've seen the music video for 'Get Lucky' on the music channels since Monday...

 

That's not the proper video...

Stooshe - #10

Demi - #13

Wretch 32 - #8

 

I really hope Wretch does the best out of the three. 'Slip' is okay but nothing special, 'Heart Attack' is absolutely terrible but 'Blackout' is such an awesome track. The Petite Noir remix slays. :heart:

It's been on music channels for a week or two!

:up: 57. Gabrielle Aplin - Please Don't Say You Love Me

 

Very big climb thanks to just about the whole song being played at the end of tonight's episode of Waterloo Road.

Yay for sudden progress for "How Ya Doin'?"! Hopefully it'll get top 10 sometime - there's quite a bit of competition out next week, although I can only see Demi going top ten. I've not heard "Slip" anywhere not out of choice, and I haven't "Blackout" at all (and I listen to Radio quite regularly!)

 

"Blackout" has been all over Radio 1! But I don't think it really 'stands out' much imo, it doesn't really compare to his other top 10 singles.

 

Is Demi really going to do that well though? It's a good song but I wouldn't have thought it had much hype apart from this website. :lol: Oh well.

 

If Bridgit Mendler can go top 10...

Daft Punk still have a mighty lead on iTunes so I think they've got a good chance of remaining #1 next week. Demi Lovato could be as high as #2 next week depending on how well Passenger does.

 

Still think StooShe have a chance of going top 5 whilst Wretch 32 is possibly set for a chart entry between 6-10.

Texas- The Conversation :up: 162 ... never thought it'd go T200! Hope it continues to climb

Sub Focus' new track seemingly forgotten in the new release discussion? :lol: Granted it probably won't do much better than Tidal Wave, but i can see it either scraping into the Top 10, or just outside

 

That video that the Box/4Music etc show its definitely not the official video for Daft Punk, probably one they made for TV.

 

I see Passenger is finally climbing, now up to 0.60, it'll take another couple of weeks to catch up. I can see what will happen, it will finally get close to overtaking DP in a few weeks, only for Robin Thicke to release and Passenger will get stuck at #2! Can totally see that happening too.

 

Shame about Livepopbars, site has been funny for a while but I do hope it starts working again!

Sub Focus' new track seemingly forgotten in the new release discussion? :lol: Granted it probably won't do much better than Tidal Wave, but i can see it either scraping into the Top 10, or just outside

 

I hope it does well, I much prefer it to Tidal Wave & will give Alex Clare another hit.

Great song, hopefully it can continue to climb!

That sounds like a dream scenario :yahoo:

 

'Heart Attack' is top 200 on pre-orders, I should think that'll guarantee it top 10.

 

If you look at Ben's list of high pre-orders, Michael Molloy reached 64 and they only just scraped top 40. Laura Mvula made the top 200 too and unfortunately only made the top 40 too so its not a guarantee

It doesn't sound much like I'm On One. It actually samples Started From the Bottom and was originally supposed to be a remix to the song.

Yeah, I thought the same about being transported back in time when I checked iTunes today. :lol: I remember it being like this in early 2011 and early 2012 as well though, and that wasn't with as many discounted songs, more just with leftover tracks from the year before.

 

I don't really care about monster hits though (more about how good the hits are). This year we've had Get Lucky and Thrift Shop, and we've got Blurred Lines soon as well hopefully. Last year we had Somebody That I Used to Know, Call Me Maybe and We Are Young.

 

Yeah 2013 is doing just fine I mean when was the last time a brand new original hit sold over 100k for 3 weeks in a row and it could be more!?!

I can't see anything but a top 5 peak for 'Heart Attack'. Both Capital and Radio 1 have it playlisted, it's been 500 (? - could be lower actually) on pre-orders near enough, ever since it became available to pre-order in the UK. :lol: I think it'll hang around for a little bit too. I'm thinking it's going to have a number 4 peak, with 5 weeks top 10 and about 13 weeks top 40 overall. Stooshe, hopefully they'll stall at #11, but I can see it having a 7-15-34-OUT sort of chart run.

 

I think Demi's one of the most obvious top 10 hits of the year so far though and I'm struggling to see why a couple of people seem to think it's only going top 20 at best. (Fully expecting Demi to do just that now, and flop on her arse :lol:)

I think people are really underestimating 'Heart Attack'. It has only been on-sale in Ireland for one hour and it's already #3. I think it has a fighting chance at hitting the top spot.

Interesting, maybe it will make her more of a household name

Miguel feat Mariah Carey ( :kink: ) video has already been premiered, but the song is still at #37 on UK iTunes.

She loves to show her legs, no? ^_^

:up: 12. Little Mix - How Ya Doin'? :) (new peak?)

 

:up: 13. AlunaGeorge - Attracting Flies :)

 

:up: 26. Black Eyed Peas - Where is the love? :)

 

:up: 30. Carly Rae Jepsen - Tonight I'm Getting over you (I hope she can break top 30)

If you look at Ben's list of high pre-orders, Michael Molloy reached 64 and they only just scraped top 40. Laura Mvula made the top 200 too and unfortunately only made the top 40 too so its not a guarantee

 

Michael Molloy was a very frontloaded pre-order and Mvula only got that high because of a performance before she released. Demi is a different situation.
