The Little Mix song, reminds me of Wild World

demi flopato :rofl:

 

I thought this would re-enter in the top 20 at the start of the week, but boo at it just scraping the top 40 :( Oh well, be thankful for small mercies etc.

Now that 2003 chart is what a Christmas race should be - something completely out of the blue, two modern Christmas classics (Bo Selecta's definitely the better of recent novelty songs) and reality show's WELL out of it! Such a shame ten years on, this is looking like the least interesting Christmas chart in years :(

 

No surprise the fix factor wasn't about the. One of the last yrs before it started filling our Xmas with diluted vocalised shite pop lol!

Hello everyone!

 

A nice start of the chart and what do we have now? Dear Lord, I still can't believe this bore-fest will be the Christmas number one later on, it's painful to listen to!!!

I hope Kelly has entered the top 30!

burn will easily become ellies first plainum selling single

 

All versions EVER top the original of this :puke:

I agree *.*

No surprise the fix factor wasn't about the. One of the last yrs before it started filling our Xmas with diluted vocalised shite pop lol!

 

It's hardly as if it would be any more exciting without Sam. :lol:

YAY at Last Christmas being in the chart :wub: Second time I've heard it today :lol:

Untrue, you're assuming that the absence of X Factor would not impact the release schedule when there is evidence to the contrary.

'Last Christmas' is definitely one of my fave Xmas songs :wub:

Last Christmas :wub: Yay for a christmas classic appearing right after that crap Demi Lovato song.

I really don't get why Xmas songs did so much worse than usual in 2010 :lol:

Biography

Sub Focus is an alias of Nick Douwma, a fast-rising drum'n'bass producer/DJ affiliated with the Ram Records collective who became one of the style's leading practitioners within only two years of his recording debut. Originally from London, England, Douwma is a self-taught producer who began producing music on his PC at age 13 and attained his know-how from software manuals. One of his demos eventually made its way into the hands of Andy C., the co-founder of Ram Records, one of the U.K.'s premier drum'n'bass labels. Signed initially to the Ram Records offshoot label Frequency, Douwma made his recording debut as Sub Focus in 2003 with the 12" release Down the Drain/Hot Line. A couple more 12" releases on Frequency followed in 2004, along with one on J Majik's Infrared label. Douwma's breakout year came in 2005, however, when he made his Ram Records debut, releasing X-Ray/Scarecrow and, later in the year, Frozen Solid/Juno; these 12" releases were also compiled on the Frozen Solid/X-Ray maxi-single in response to their widespread demand, as "X-Ray" was awarded Single of the Week on tastemaker Zane Lowe's BBC Radio 1 show. Also in 2005, Douwma was chosen to remix the Prodigy's "Smack My Bitch Up" in promotion of the group's 15-year anniversary collection, Their Law: The Singles 1990-2005.

 

In subsequent years, Douwma continued his affiliation with Ram Records, releasing a 12" more or less annually (i.e., Airplane/Flamenco, 2006; Special Place/Druggy, 2007; Time Warp/Join the Dots, 2008; et al.) and performing as an affiliate DJ at clubs such as Fabric and festivals such as Glastonbury. In 2009 Douwma issued his full-length debut, Sub Focus, which incorporated an eclectic fusion of futuristic house, dubstep, and electro-rock. The following year he produced the track "Kickstarts" for British singer/rapper Example, which peaked at number three on the U.K. singles chart, and in 2011 he inked a deal with Mercury, with plans to release his second album under the Sub Focus moniker in late 2012. The album sessions went on longer than expected and spawned five singles which gained Douwma increasing recognition and success with each release, culminating in the euphoric UK no. 10 hit "Endorphins" featuring vocalist Alex Clare. The success of the single was no doubt powered at least in part by its brilliant music video, which sees brutal riot police cracking down on dissidents in a dystopian future where music has been banned. A number of other high-profile vocalists, including Bloc Party's Kele Okereke, appeared on the eventual album, which was titled Torus and scheduled for release in September 2013. - iTunes
