Bastille getting another week top 3 :o Really surprised at how well they're holding up but it's probably more down to low sales / lack of new releases than anything else. Shame Calvin is looking at quite a bad chart run based on his first 2 weeks but not exactly unexpected, just glad it got to #1 really.

Still wish that some of Bastille's other songs could have had some T10 success in place of Of The Night, but ah well.
Aww, for a few seconds I thought that Il Divo song was a cover of Suede's "Still Life". Maybe one day...

Il Divo performing the best song ever written? Not sure that's a good idea :blink:

Britney's never had a #1 album? :o I thought one of her earlier ones went to #1! Oops.

 

She's almost the album chart version of Sash! though :P And at least she has plenty of #1 singles which is more than she deserves

(20) All About She-Higher

 

Good tune, Should be higher.

lol @ Britney

 

Really hoping Rebecca can climb next week though, this album deserves to SMASH. :( Definitely an improvement on 'Heaven'!

That's odd considering country music is about as far from euro as you can get... :lol:

Biography

Following the success of JLS and the Wanted, X-Factor contestants One Direction were the next group of heartthrobs to help revive the previously dying concept of the boy band. Niall Horan from Mullingar, Ireland; Zayn Malik from Bradford; Harry Styles from Cheshire; Louis Tomlinson from Doncaster, and Liam Payne from Wolverhampton (the latter had previously reached the judge's house stages of The X-Factor as a 14-year-old back in 2008) originally entered the 2010 seventh series of the talent show as individuals, but following a suggestion from guest judge Nicole Scherzinger, they were grouped together to become One Direction. Mentored by Simon Cowell, they soon became one of the favorites to win the show, thanks to renditions of Kelly Clarkson's "My Life Would Suck Without You," Elton John's "Something About the Way You Look Tonight," and Bonnie Tyler's "Total Eclipse of the Heart." However, despite receiving a standing ovation for their duet with Robbie Williams ("She's the One") in the live final, they eventually finished third behind Rebecca Ferguson and winner Matt Cardle. Spotting the potential of five Justin Bieber-esque teen pinups, Cowell signed them to his Syco label in a £2million deal, and after performing on the X-Factor tour, the quintet began work on their debut album with Savan Kotecha (Britney Spears, Enrique Iglesias). Following a sponsorship deal with Nintendo DS and a book, Forever Young, named after their cover of the Alphaville classic which was intended to be their winner's song, they released their first single, "What Makes You Beautiful," in late 2011. The full-length album, Up All Night, followed soon after. In 2012, One Direction became the first British band to debut on top of the Billboard 200 list when Up All Night sold over 176, 000 copies during its first week of release in America. In late 2012, One Direction released its sophomore album, Take Me Home. Highlighting more of the band's melodic pop, Take Me Home featured songs and production via Sweden's Carl Falk, Rami Yacoub, and Savan Kotecha, who worked on Up All Night, as well as contributions from singer-songwriter Ed Sheeran. In August of 2012, the band released the single "Live While We're Young" online. - iTunes

Have Pendulum even played any gigs this year? I thought they went on hiatus in 2012.

 

Dunno. However, "Pendulum" did perform at a club I was in once last year, and that was after they had split up. The whole group wasn't there though. I think it was just one of them and MC Verse. Propane Nightmares got the best reception of all their songs.

Biography

Lily Rose Beatrice Cooper (née Allen; born 2 May 1985), known professionally as Lily Allen, is an English recording artist and actress. She is the daughter of Keith Allen and film producer Alison Owen. Allen abandoned school when she was 15 and concentrated on improving her performing and compositional skills. In 2005, she made some of her recordings public on Myspace and the publicity resulted in airplay on BBC Radio One and a contract with Regal Recordings.

 

Her first mainstream single, "Smile", reached the top position on the UK Singles Chart in July 2006. Her debut record, Alright, Still, was well received, selling over 2.6 million copies worldwide and brought Allen a nomination at the Grammy Awards, BRIT Awards and MTV Video Music Awards. She began hosting her own talk-show, Lily Allen and Friends, on BBC Three. Her second studio album, It's Not Me, It's You, saw a genre shift, having more of an electropop feel, rather than the ska and reggae influences of the first one. The album debuted at number one on the UK Albums Chart and the Australian ARIA Charts and was well received by critics, noting the singer's musical evolution and maturity. It spawned the hit singles "The Fear" and "f*** You", popular mostly in Europe. Allen and Amy Winehouse have been credited with starting a process that led to the media-proclaimed "year of the women" in 2009 that has seen five female artists making music of "experimentalism and fearlessness" nominated for the Mercury Prize.

 

In 2009 Allen announced that she would be taking a hiatus from musical activities. During 2010, Allen opened a fashion rental shop "Lucy in Disguise" with her sister Sarah, followed by the 2011 launching of her own record label. In 2013, Allen revealed that she had begun working on her third studio album. On November 12, 2013 Allen premiered the video for her first original song since 2009, "Hard Out Here", which will be released as a single on November 17. - Wikipedia

1D held off for another week, huzzah. Their threat to be #1 is not over yet though unfortunately.

Think I would of preferred 1D at Number 1 over Lily. Am I the only one that really doesn't like her version of SOWK?
Goddammit Lily is #1 again :huh:

 

:yahoo: :dance: :cheer:

 

Better than Wand Erection being there!
