Sophie Ellis-Bextor slaying! :lol:
I never thought Sophie Ellis Bextor would ever have another top 40 single until recently :lol: Get that continued relevance!

First listen of Young Blood~

 

Yesterday I was in HMV browsing through the albums and I overheard these two young women looking at Sophie's new album and saying "I had no idea she still existed, wasn't she your favourite back in the day?" :lol:

Little Mix officially being outsold by Sophie Ellis-Bextor :lol:

Definitely dropped now.

I agree with Joseph though that it might be confusing. I thought for a minute that Shakira is going to release a new album called 'Shakira 2014'! (like Kylie Minogue 1994)

Not to mention The 1975 2013 :P

Heartbreak Make Me Dancer only got to 13?!

 

I had forgot about that chart travesty :(

This is pretty bland IMO, maybe it'll be a grower?

 

She has had some right gems in the form of Groovejet (If This Ain't Love) & Murder On The Dancefloor :wub:

First time hearing 'Young Blood', it's decent but rather MOR, pretty much what I expected from what others have said about it. Absolutely baffled at how much SCD has helped her career!

Biography

Cleverly using dance music blogs as the platform to launch his career, Tim Berg, aka Avicii, has since become one of the most prominent producers on the burgeoning Swedish house scene. Born in Stockholm in 1989, Berg only started making music at the age of 18, writing and remixing tracks in his bedroom and then leaking them onto various blogs. Influenced by Daft Punk and Steve Angello, his melodic house sound gained a huge following, and led to support from Tiësto, who invited him to perform a weekly residency at Privilege in Ibiza, and Pete Tong, who released first single "Manman" through his Bedroom Bedlam label. After he remixed tracks for Little Boots, Robyn, and Dizzee Rascal, Berg's first mainstream release, the Ministry of Sound instrumental "Seek Bromance," became a huge hit across Europe and later in the U.K., thanks to a vocal version featuring Amanda Wilson. In 2012 he released the song "2 Million" after reaching that number of followers on Facebook, while his single "Le7els" and its accompanying video were nominated at that year's MTV Music Video Awards. Towards the end of 2012 he released his highly-anticipated collaboration single with Nicky Romero. "I Could Be The One" was a smash hit and was featured heavily on reality TV shows and radio play across Europe. In 2013, Avicii teamed up with Ericsson and creates the first "crowdsourced" track which enabled the producer to connect to fans and promote his brand. The single "3 Million" was released to celebrate the 3 millionth fan on his Facebook page. "Le7els" was nominated for the Best Dance Recording at the 2013 Grammys but lost out to Skrillex & Sirah's "Bangarang". Ahead of his debut album #TRUE, he released the single "Wake Me Up" in June 2013. Featuring Aloe Blacc, it reached the top of the UK Charts and confidently showed off his new musical direction. ~ Jon O'Brien, Rovi / iTunes

Yay for young blood climbing!! Bittersweet! that was a tune and a half!! :wub:
Well, before this I thought I'd never see her name in the top 40 again unless it was featuring on a big artist's dance track or something.

Same here, she's really turned it around with this era - Strictly must've helped but I think releasing an adult contemporary single is doing wonders for her career too.

 

Wake Me Up still slaying your non-top 34 faves :cheer:
