I can't believe German Whip is top 10 on iTunes! :o I can imagine people from other countries listening to it out of curiosity, and they'll be in for a shock. They'll never have heard a song like this before, but it'll be one of the best things they ever heard. It will be a confusing experience for a lot of people.

:D This is too overgeneralasing! The song won't be liked by many people, I guess its anti-rating should be very big within the general public.

I was sort of joking when I said that. :lol: Even a lot of people in the UK hate grime music, it's a bit of an acquired taste. I just can't imagine what it would be like to hear one for the first time.

Earthquake struggling? Thought it was a sure fire top 40 (20 even?) upon first listen.

Fantastic lead, just hope the track gets a second week now, but that sounds wishful thinking.

 

 

And that German Whip is awful :puke:

Really hoping 'Brave' can make top 40 this week. it keeps getting close before being pushed down by new entries

So excited to see the best song of the year take #1 this week. :wub:

 

Unlikely. Anastacia has really been struggling with this release :(

I'm yet to be drawn in by Hideaway. I miss number ones that don't have a dance influence :(

What were Rather Bes best % on iTunes in January when it sold so well?

The last number one that didn't have a dance influence was two weeks ago.

:arrowup: 6. Meridian Dan - German Whip (feat. Big H & JME) :o

:arrowup: 14. Meridian Dan - German Whip (Remixes) - EP

 

GWON Meridian Dan! Looks like my prediction of #2 is slowly coming to fruition. I think the appeal of this is that it sounds a bit like a nursery rhyme, imagine teachers singing this to the kids at nursery :lol:

 

Another thing is that this will get played on Capital FM today during the Big Top 40 looooooooool

Shockingly I like all of the iTunes Top 6 :o (well, at least I did before this German Whip dross took the 6th position :P)

German Whip is going to get played on Heart FM as well. :lol:

I'll expand. I want a number one that doesnt sound generic or sample another song.
