:lol: HA... can we censor the above please :(

 

I second this movement.

I wasn't before? :snif: :lol:

I think they could be within the Top 100 today! I wish Mariah had managed to achieve at least a week at #1 back in 1994. :(

Stay Another Day utterly over-shadowed her :( I actually have no idea how close she came to number 1 actually. Gezza, do you have any sales for this at the time? :o

Move has had a great chart run, really thought it would bomb after a week or 2.

Biography

R&B vocalist Jason Derülo launched his career while still in his teens, first as a songwriter for other artists and later as a solo performer. Born to Haitian parents in Miramar, Florida, Derülo started singing at an early age. He attended performing arts schools in Florida and took some early stabs at music composition, writing his first song at the age of eight. His writing skills began attracting attention, and by his teenage years, Derülo had begun scribing tracks for artists like Lil Wayne, Pitbull, and Pleasure P. He also wrote "Bossy" for Birdman, a New Orleans-based rapper, and made a guest appearance on the song, which highlighted his ability as a vocalist.

 

After signing to a subsidiary of Warner Bros., Derülo began making the transition from behind-the-scenes songwriter to mainstream performer. His first hit arrived during the summer of 2009, when he wrapped a sample of Imogen Heap's "Hide and Seek" (a song made popular by its appearance in the second season finale of The O.C., as well as the Saturday Night Live sketch Dear Sister) around a sleek modern soul beat. Titled "Whatcha Say," the song topped the Billboard charts and cracked the Top Ten in multiple foreign countries, including Canada, Australia, Sweden, Switzerland, and the U.K. A second single, "In My Head," peaked at number five in America, and Derülo's full-length debut album arrived in early 2010. Future History followed in 2011, along with its hit single “Don't Wanna Go Home.” ~ Jason Thurston & Andrew Leahey, Rovi / iTunes

I hate it and I have soul. But I'm not a soldier.

I did too - a bit like 'DNA.' It's still at #12 on iTunes though!

I quite like trumpets. Not his best song, but rather good all the same.

This chart run IMO shows how biased radio are against indie music - a massive 30 weeks top 75 but more than half outside of the top 40 because few mainstream radio stations will properly support it and others like them!

I completely second this. :puke2:

Omg jade in your sig. Jem - They :heart:

Biography

Breach is the house-focused pseudonym of the Bristol, England multi-instrumentalist Ben Westbeech. He first used this alter ego as a recording name a good six years after his own name graced the landmark opening release for Gilles Peterson’s Brownswood label. Summer 2010 and 2011 each saw Breach singles issued on the RAMP Recordings imprint, Pattern. By the time summer 2012 had arrived, he had launched his own Naked Naked label on which he released "You Won't Find Love Again" and "101" before the year was over. February 2013 brought an inventive and moody collaboration with the London-based trio Dark Sky. However, it was the more commercial approach of "Jack" — released the same year on San Francisco's Dirtybird Records — which secured Breach a U.K. Top Ten single placing. - iTunes
