Tesco also used 'Ice Cream' by Battles in an advert a few months back. Why couldn't that song become the hit? Sigh.

'Ice Cream' :wub:

 

Am I confused?? I swear his first album was called The Birds...

 

:huh:

 

That's a bit weird.

 

I think you mean 'I Created Disco'. That was Calvin's first album. Are you thinking about the hit 'The Girls' by any chance? :lol:

 

Urgh! Not Passanger :(

Biography

Passenger, the working name of singer/songwriter Mike Rosenberg, makes intimate, folk-inflected indie pop. Originally a four-piece, Passenger formed in Brighton, England, as a collaboration between singer/songwriter Rosenberg and composer Andrew Phillips. Working out of Phillips' studio, the duo recorded the songs that would become Wicked Man's Rest, Passenger's debut album. The disc was released on ChalkMark in 2007 and spawned several singles, including "Wicked Man's Rest," "Walk You Home," "Do What You Like," and "Table for One." Passenger opened up for several high-profile indie acts throughout the U.K. that year, including Kate Nash and the Hold Steady. The following year found the band providing the soundtrack to the film Where Have I Been All Your Life?, and performing at the 2008 SXSW festival in Austin, Texas. In 2009, Phillips parted ways with Passenger leaving Rosenberg at the helm. The band's sophomore effort, 2009's Wide Eyes Blind Love, reflected this change with a stripped-down, acoustic sound. A year later, Rosenberg's Passenger returned with the "fan-only" release Divers and Submarines. Also in 2010, Passenger released the album Flight of the Crow, featuring collaborations with such artists as Josh Pyke, Katie Noonan, Elana Stone, and others. In 2012, Passenger released its fifth full-length effort, All the Little Lights, which featured a more fully fleshed-out sound. ~ Margaret Reges & Matt Collar, Rovi / iTunes

Hurrah! 1D out of the top20. :cheer:

Sadly, I think this will be the new "Ho Hey" and have a ridiculously long top 40 run.

Edited by N-S

First "Pearce" to be named on a chart hit since Mary Pearce was featured on tracks by Up Your Ronson in 95/96/97.

 

Not bad either, the instrumental backing reminds me of "Passion" by Gat Decor from 1992

 

(The same?) Mary Pearce was also the vocalist on Calvin Harris' 'Ready For The Weekend' (linking into another discussion in this thread :P) although uncredited. From the way you phrased this I assume you knew that already but just in case :P

John Newman finally getting an album title, but Lethal Bizzle doesn't have one so the balance of missing album titles remains. Not sure how many of Lethal Bizzle's singles since his last album are meant to be on his next one so I've had a guess and 'They Got It Wrong' being the lead single to album 4.

*has vision of all these 1Directioners fist- pumping away furiously....* :o

 

Oh wait...you meant it THAT way...

I have a personal gripe with Passenger, but this post is probably not the best vehicle for this.

Let Her Go is a lovely song when its performed by someone who actually can sing well:
