Go Little Mix, off to a fantastic start. I'm surprised at people not feeling 'Salute'. For me, it was the most instant of their songs.

Paloma Faith 7

361. Demi Lovato - Neon Lights

 

This is possibly the highest this song has managed on iTunes so far, it has also just been played on Capital FM so hopefully it'll continue to climb!

Paloma Faith 7

 

I think this will beat the peak of its predecessor this week.

If Paloma keeps selling it could be one of the more shock hits of this yr!

I find it so weird that Paloma Faith and Sub Focus managed top 10 with post-album singles. :lol: Most of the time it's big US/international stars who manage it.

Im not surprised Subfocus did as they are a dance act who have capital and radio 1 airplay but Paloma only has Heart & radio 2 which have less of an effect on the singles chart BUT obv she has done alot of good promo to help her so people must relate with the song!!

Don't forget Coldplay is ineligible at the moment, so Paloma is technically #6 on the chart right now.

Yeah, Sub Focus definitely have the airplay advantage, but it's still weird, since Sub Focus barely gets top 10s with his held-back pre-album singles, and also bigger acts like Rudimental and Disclosure's didn't manage top 10 with their post-album singles (I think some of them even missed the top 40 completely). So Sub Focus of all people managing it was a bit of a surprise to me, but it really is a great song imo.

Well Paloma prob get higher on airplay because of audience reach lol but yeah Subfocus reach more people who influence the chart. But yeah this era was surprising for Subfocus prob their most successful - even i nearly purchased their album and im not into them in the same way as Rudimental - its good to see and confirms this is the dance era in the charts!

Assuming the Linkin Park song is ineligible, seeing as the other song of theirs in the top 100 right now has been out for a couple of months I believe (and charted in the top 200), and both are instant grats.[/color]

 

It looks like 'Guilty All The Same' has just been made ineligible and 'Until It's Gone' is the nominated instant grat (source: fluffy pink dickie bird).

Really quite surprised this of all Paloma's singles is the one that's catching on. I'm not going to complain if it keeps her in business for another few years/albums.

Paloma's single does have that 'classic' sound to it, but I really wish the stunning and beautiful '30 Minute Love Affair' had got this kind of success too. :(

Oh OK, thank you! Will keep that in mind for future updates ^_^

 

Amazing for Paloma right now :o

It just keeps going! I would love for her to have a proper HUGE hit though.

I have a feeling Paloma has finally been driven insane by the radio snub and is constantly creating new iTunes accounts to rebuy the song. It would even explain why there are so many versions floating around - she's buying a copy of each per account.

Brilliant for Paloma! Wish she had that much success with her singles of her first album. Now they were amazing!
