If Icona Pop dosen't get to #1, I would prefer Robin Thicke for a 5th week, getting 5 consecutives weeks run at #1 are pretty rare these days.

Who was the last to achieve this :unsure:

Katy Perry "I Kissed A Girl"

Top 10 Popularity Update (not combining multiple versions)

 

The number in brackets shows popularity change since the last update. I know the percentages are "real" etc. (we had this conversation when I did this many months ago), it just shows a difference without having to do complicated calculations to work out "real" percentage increases.

 

01. 100% (0.0%) Robin Thicke - Blurred Lines (feat. T.I. & Pharrell)

02. 84.3% (+1.3%) The Wanted - Walks Like Rihanna

03. 72.3% (+4.8%) will.i.am - Bang Bang

04. 69.1% (+7.7%) Icona Pop - I Love It (feat. Charli XCX)

05. 55.1% (-0.3%) Naughty Boy - La La La (feat. Sam Smith)

:D

 

I think Icona Pop will move up to #3 by the end of the night and if they do manage to overtake The Wanted, then I think that'll happen midday tomorrow.

:rofl: The Teletubbies?!

Yes, they were very popular then, not only with parents and kids, but with students (see the success of Barbie Girl). Say Eh-oh was a million seller.

Yeah, that sounds about right I think! :D

I'm here for the John Newman looning next week! :D

Anyone want to join me for the Diana excitement in a few weeks? :kink: If you think I've been bad today, wait until July 21st! :lol:

That's quite amazing!

Same. Although I wish there was a version that excluded the orgasm noises because they prevent me from listening to the song out loud. :lol:

 

I was listening to a R1 chart show from '89 the other day and I can't believe they actually played the record in full!

Edit; Oh, I see what you mean now. :drama:

 

 

:lol:

 

1 NEW 243,000 IT'S LIKE THAT RUN-DMC VS JASON NEVINS

2 NEW 115,000 STOP SPICE GIRLS

3 1 102,000 MY HEART WILL GO ON CÉLINE DION

 

 

I was talking complete horse-shit. :lol: Nothing new there.

 

There must have some #2s over 100k as well in some of those weeks

 

 

I'll Be Missing You certainly did when it was number 2 behind Oasis.

3. I Love It (feat. Charli XCX) - Icona Pop

3. I Love It (feat. Charli XCX) - Icona Pop

 

:cheer: Keep going!

169. The Way

170. My Way

 

:P

You've got to consider that at the current rates of increase, in 3 updates time Icona Pop will be on 90% and The Wanted will be also be around 90%. Obviously, they will both slow down slightly - but you can't ignore the facts! :kink: They will both be pushing for the #1 by the end of tomorrow.

Carly! :wub:

 

I second this emotion! :wub: :wub:

 

If Icona Pop dosen't get to #1, I would prefer Robin Thicke for a 5th week, getting 5 consecutives weeks run at #1 are pretty rare these days.

 

This too!

 

It could easily be very successful yet. I remember when 'Call Me Maybe' was released, people we saying it's climbing slowly compared to what they expected and wasn't going to #1 - but then it did! So we shouldn't write it off until the end of tomorrow and see what the situation is then. :D

 

Wasnt CMM a surprise no.1 though ad not expected at all? Hipster moment: I loved this song ages before it reached radio here :P (Same with Lana del Rey, the two break-out artists of 2012).

One whole hour and no confirmation that Icona Pop are still the biggest gainers out of the whole top 10. I'M DYING :(

Call Me Maybe wasn't a surprise #1 at all, it was pretty much guaranteed, it's just that people were shocked at how slow it climbed to #1 IIRC. Ended up with 100k+ sales though. Slow and steady wins the race!

Icona Pop at #3...

Indeed! And then its sales increased for the next 2 weeks as well I think! :D
