Both Live it Up and Dance Again are varying shades of horrific. On the Floor was alright though.

 

(I'm dead.)

So i'm the only one that thinks Dance Again is the best of the three then?

This guy has it right.

 

Pleased JLo isn't top 10 yet but she'll probably still be climbing for a while (even Ellie is still inching up - ACH #32, Explosions #39).

The latest tribute version of 'I Love It' seems to have been deleted, it peaked at #55 I think. Which tribute version is going to be next to take the challenge to try and be the winner of the tribute versions? :kink:

 

Or better still, please release the proper version Icona Pop's label!

Live it up is miles ahead of dance again and just marginally ahead of on the floor which is also awesome!! IMO of course ;)

Loreen Harris to smash please! :yahoo:

15. JLo - Live it Up

Live It Up probably won't go top ten. For some reason songs are either huge worldwide or flops worldwide. You never really hear of big artists having a massive hit in the UK that's underperformed everywhere else. :lol:

It happens sometimes, but I noticed the past couple of years in particular it's the same few songs that are high up the year-end charts in each country.

Yeah.

 

For example if I look at the US iTunes and see Avril Lavigne's 'Here's To Never Growing Up' having average success, and I check it's discography page on iTunes and see it having mediocre success worldwide then I know it won't be a hit at all in the UK. Likewise, if a song blows up worldwide (Blurred Lines) I know it'll be big here. It'd be interesting if songs could be HUGE in some countries and flops in the other but it always just seems to be either big worldwide/flop worldwide.

I think one of the main examples I can think of would be "Don't Hold Your Breath" and most of Nicole Scherzinger's solo career, I think the UK was her main/only market where she had success.

I'd much rather they gave it a full week if they were going to. Maybe in a couple of weeks when Robin Thicke has eased off a little bit.

Yeah.

Yeah, I found the same. Songs like Call Me Maybe, Somebody That I Used to Know, We Are Young, etc. I knew would be big here a while before they got in the charts because they were big all over Europe/US before.

 

It wasn't like this a few years ago though. Like in 2004 for example, the biggest hits from that year Call On Me, Toxic, Yeah!, etc. didn't get #1 in lots of countries, whilst today songs like Somebody That I Used to Know, Love the Way You Lie, I Gotta Feeling go #1 practically everywhere in the world.

Well except Scream & Shout.

You're a terrible person.

'What About Us' begs to differ!! :kink:

I think this is the best example to use when discussing something like this.

No, he's only flopped in the US. He's huge in Europe.

 

I also agree with the comment that most hits now are worldwide, and 10 years ago that wasnt the case, or at least not as much. I think its because the charts in the late 90s and early 00s were very fast moving, so there was more variety of big hits, and many of them didnt crossover to the US, especially european pop songs or dance tracks. The same thing with foreign language hits not crossing over easily to the UK
