WHO are Reconnected?! (genuinely no clue, the name's familiar)

Duncan Bannatyne's attempt at a boy-band, are they not?

WHO are Reconnected?! (genuinely no clue, the name's familiar)

 

They were called 'Connected' and were in the final of BGT 2010, 2 of them left and they renamed the band. I actually went to the BGT 2010 tour and saw them live :lol:

Another rubbish new entry... I'm pretty sure this whole boyband nonsense EVERY week should end in the near future, surely the public is too fed up?

How the hell has this made it? :huh: :mellow:

Ugh. This sounds like DJ Got Us Falllin in Love by Usher.

It's awful but it sounds like 'DJ Got Us Fallin' in Love' :o

Biography

Chase & Status — consisting of drum'n'bass DJs Saul Milton and Will Kennard — earned their stripes after remixing the rather questionable Capleton track "Duppy Man" to success in 2005. From there the duo had a few hit club singles — in 2007 with the double A-sided "Hurt You" b/w "Sell Me Your Soul" and 2008's "Take Me Away" — that hit the top of the U.K. dance and club charts. A full-length was finally released in 2008. Entitled More Than Alot, it featured appearances from Kano, Takura, and Digga, and was well-received critically; it won a 2009 Drum and Bass Award for best album. From there, Milton and Kennard dipped their toes into more pop-oriented production; "End Credits," a 2009 single featuring Plan B, entered the U.K. Top Ten and led to the 2011 album No More Idols, which featured collaborations with Dizzee Rascal, Tinie Tempah, and Cee-Lo Green. Spending 35 weeks in the U.K. Top 40, No More Idols went on to earn a double-platinum status. At the beginning 2012 the duo were nominated for Best British Group at the prestigious Brit Awards — a first for a drum 'n' bass outfit — yet were beaten to the gong by Coldplay. Not resting on their laurels, the duo spent 2012 playing live dates at festivals across the U.K. and Europe, including a sub-headline slot at the metal festival Download. As a thank you to fans for their support, the festival favorite "Big Man" — featuring vocals from Liam Bailey — was released at the end of 2012. In 2013, the duo released the single "Lost and Found" featuring Louis Ma^ttrs in preparation for their third studio album Brand New Machine which was slated for release later that year. ~ Chris True & Rich Wilson, Rovi / iTunes

'Count On Me' :wub: :dancing: :wub:

Love 'Count on Me' but their other track with Moko is even better!

Count On Me shouldn't be this low :( Sooooooo good :heart:

Gutted C&S are dropping. I do really like this.

What has Duncan Bannatyne done to get this in the top 40?! Very strange.

Got his family and friends to buy loads of copies probably......

'Count On Me' is so uplifting. The influence is clearly from the good side of 90s music! :lol:

Reconnected is totally a 'chart hyped' release - They was #42 on the mids and suddenly 14 versions of the track appeared on the Amazon Top 100 despite them not being in the iTunes top 200!

Best track in the chart so far...shame about that chart run though :rolleyes:

:cheer: I listen to Count On Me all the time. I'm really addicted to it.

 

I heard International from their new album on the radio, I hope it will be a single.

That Reconnected song wasn't BAD, it was just very generic and a bit WTF.

 

Yay for Count On Me staying in the charts though!

Hahaha finally Eric is actually genuinely suppored with his "this sounds like x and y" comparisons!

Oh this actually held on - I really think there's something very fishy about this, it had a sudden sales spike midweek that wasn't reflected on iTunes at all... should be another 1 week top 100 run for them. Their 2 top 40 hits will probably go down as among the most forgotten of the year (does anyone even remember how 'One In A Million' goes?)

I actually really like Time of Our Lives :ph34r:

Reconnected are currently at a massive Number 567 on livepopbars. Yep, you read that right. Five hundred and sixty seven.
