...I'm ready for the weekend...

 

Honestly, I just hope that gets put on 59p so it can return to the chart.

 

This. I would also like to see Acceptable In The 80's and I'm Not Alone return to the Top 40 too :D

'Trouble' is absolutely awful.

 

When will girl bands realise that jumping around and trying to look "edgy" and "full of personality" just makes them look desperate? The way they act in their video is cringeworthy.

Lethal Bizzle what a random new entry :lol: The song's not bad though, it's very generic though - reminds me of that Leeroy song from a few months ago
This Lethal Bizzle track sounds like a cross between a Pitbull reject and "Badger Badger Badger...."

Basically, just the whole 'The Birds' album to flood the top 10!!

Biography

The neo-synth pop group Bastille were formed in London, England in 2010. Originally the solo project of singer/songwriter Dan Smith, Bastille expanded to a quartet after he decided to form a band and got some of his friends involved. The band attracted a lot of attention after putting a few tracks online, leading to support slots at major U.K. festivals like Glastonbury and the Isle of Wight. While their lush, heavily '80s-inspired melodies, anthemic choruses, and literate, emotionally raw lyrics, delivered in Smith’s swooping voice, undoubtedly appealed to kids weaned on the sounds of La Roux and Florence + the Machine, at least part of the hype was due to the flagrantly copyright-breaching videos that Smith, an ardent film buff, edited together out of footage from old movies like Terrence Malick’s Badlands. Eventually they secured a deal with hip indie label Young and Lost Club and released their debut 7” single, Flaws/Icarus, in July 2011. This was followed later that year by Laura Palmer EP, named for the teenaged murder victim in David Lynch’s cult '90s TV series Twin Peaks; the creepy accompanying video for the track “Overjoyed” was also heavily inspired by the series. The group returned in 2013 with their debut album Bad Blood. ~ John D. Buchanan, Rovi / iTunes

Nice to see 'Things' get a new peak, especially as it seemed like it wouldn't even make the top 40 a few weeks back. Would be nice to see it climb more, but I imagine this is as high as it's going to get.
Wish Calvin Harris starting making good music again. :(

 

 

This- really liked his first album, haven't liked anything since

Nice to see Bastille heading in the right direction, love this :wub:
Things We Lost In The Fire still rising. :dance: And Right Place Right Time still to come. :wub:
Looks like there will be no Ben Pearce then...

Who's the fifth new entry then?

 

Great to see Bastille in the top 30, now if only Laura Palmer did this well too :(
