This is growing on me, but I find the 'you naughty boy' line slightly creepy. :lol:

Ohh, didn't know this went top 40. Was this a single or just cherry picked? Brilliant song!

Was there even anything for it to be cherry-picked from? it was just one of those random new tracks from rappers that come out in the middle of the week, sell for a few days, get no airplay and then disappear.

Hmm I'm still not feeling this Rizzle Kicks track.

Same here. It's not very good.

Wow, just heard Strong for the first time - stunning song, not sure if I prefer it to Wasting My Young Years but have to listen to her album now.

Willing London Grammar to release Nightcall off the album next but it's full of stunners anyway :wub:

I think Strong might be even better than Wasting My Young Years after a few listens, so good :heart: I really need to listen to London Grammar's album, she reminds me a lot of a more subdued Florence & The Machine.

 

I totally recommend the album, most of the tracks are really good not even one dodgy track.

The Disclosure collaboration, is their next single.

Same here. It's not very good.

LOL your sig!!

Biography

Arctic Monkeys are an English indie rock band formed in 2002 in High Green, a suburb of Sheffield. The band consists of Alex Turner (lead vocals, lead/rhythm guitar), Jamie Cook (rhythm/lead guitar), Nick O'Malley (bass guitar, backing vocals), and Matt Helders (drums, backing vocals). Former member Andy Nicholson (bass guitar, backing vocals) left the band in 2006 shortly after their debut album was released.

 

The band have released four studio albums: Whatever People Say I Am, That's What I'm Not (2006), Favourite Worst Nightmare (2007), Humbug (2009) and Suck It and See (2011), as well as one live album At the Apollo (2008). Their fifth album AM is set to be released in September 2013, their singles "R U Mine?" , "Do I Wanna Know?" and "Why'd You Only Call Me When You're High?" (released in February 2012, June 2013 and August 2013, respectively), will feature on the upcoming release.

 

The band's debut album became the fastest-selling debut album in British music history, surpassing Elastica's self-titled album and remains the fastest-selling debut album by a group in the UK. The band have won five Brit Awards—winning Best British Group twice, and have twice been nominated for Grammy Awards.

 

Arctic Monkeys were heralded as one of the first group of acts to come to the public attention via the Internet (fan-based sites rather than from the band), with commentators suggesting they represented the possibility of a change in the way in which new bands are promoted and marketed. The band are also regarded as one of the most prominent bands to be part of the post-punk revival in the UK, after achieving commercial success and spawning two number one singles with their debut album. - Wikipedia

'Do I Wanna Know' is so good. Glad to see it in the top 15. :wub:

'Do I Wanna Know?' :wub:

I was hoping Do I Wanna know would be higher than this. :( Good too see it having an amazing chart run though! Hope it don't freefall down now the albums out.

Wait, has Example charted yet? :puke:

<3

The Disclosure collaboration, is their next single.

Really? That is an amazing song - hurrah!

Wait, has Example charted yet? :puke:

No but we should expect him to very shortly...

Wait, has Example charted yet? :puke:

 

No, he's still to come. It's gonna be awkward for Jameela if he didn't get into the Top 10 as they're showing the making of the video in the 6pm hour :lol:

Biography

His initials being E.G., English MC/vocalist Elliot Gleave performed under the name Example. Gleave got his feet wet as an MC while attending Royal Holloway, where he met Joseph Gardner (aka Rusher) and recorded a concept album in the audio booth of the university's film department. "A Pointless Song," one of the tracks recorded there, became Example's first release, a 2004 single on his All the Chats label. A handful of successive 12" singles, as well as an answer song to Lily Allen's "Smile" — "Vile," issued on The Beats, the label run by the Streets' Mike Skinner — gained the attention of several BBC DJs. What We Made, Example's debut album, followed on The Beats in 2007 but failed to make much of a commercial impact. A deal with Ministry of Sound's Data label and an overt focus on reaching the clubs, however, fostered chart success. Released in 2009, "Watch the Sun Come Up," produced by the Fearless, peaked in the Top 20 of the U.K. pop chart, while both "Won't Go Quietly" (also produced by the Fearless) and "Kickstarts" (Sub Focus) reached the Top Ten and topped the dance chart.

 

The full-length Won't Go Quietly was released in June 2010 and featured the pre-album hits, as well as productions from MJ Cole, Calvin Harris, Chase & Status, and Björn Yttling (of Peter Bjorn and John). Featuring the hits "Stay Awake" and "Changed the Way You Kissed Me," his 2011 effort, Playing in the Shadows, debuted at number one on the U.K. album charts. Calvin Harris, Benga, and Dada Life were some of the producers whose work was found on his 2012 effort, The Evolution of Man. In 2013 the career-spanning #hits ended the artist's relationship with Ministry of Sound, as he had signed with the Epic Records label. - iTunes
