June 22, 201412 yr I like "Budapest", but I liked it a lot more when it was called "Two Fingers", and was sung by Jake Bugg. Nice self-promotional plug there, Jameela. BBC Introducing FTW (even though Radio 1 are stripping back their support of it).
June 22, 201412 yr I love this song favorite of the year so far even though there have been loads of songs I loved :wub:
June 22, 201412 yr Geez, George Ezra really is a charisma vacuum if that interview is anything to go by. Just as well he can write decent songs.
June 22, 201412 yr Nice self-promotional plug there, Jameela. BBC Introducing FTW (even though Radio 1 are stripping back their support of it). There not stripping back the support of BBC introducing, In September Huw Stephens will have a late night show for three days a week and there will be an hour of BBC introducing content each of the days so technically you get an extra hour of coverage available.
June 22, 201412 yr Budapest is a lovely song, really quite surprised it's charted so highly though, especially when his releases prior to this completely flopped.
June 22, 201412 yr Tom Odell's support act from his 2013 tour doing better than poor Tom ever did with his single :kink: :( (exactly a year after Another Love charted also, fun) It's the same case with Marina and the Diamonds in America with Charli XCX and Icona Pop being her support acts on her tour over there, oops!

Raised in Framlingham, Suffolk, he moved to London in 2008 to pursue a musical career. In early 2011, Sheeran released an independent extended play, No. 5 Collaborations Project, which caught the attention of both Elton John and Jamie Foxx. He then signed to Asylum Records. His 2011 debut album, +, containing the singles "The A Team" and "Lego House", was certified quintuple platinum in the United Kingdom. In 2012, he won two BRIT Awards for Best British Male and British Breakthrough. "The A Team" won the Ivor Novello Award for Best Song Musically and Lyrically. Sheeran began to be known in the United States in 2012. He made a guest appearance on Taylor Swift's fourth studio album, Red, and wrote songs for One Direction. "The A Team" was nominated for Song of the Year at the 2013 Grammy Awards and he performed the song in duet with Elton John during the ceremony. He spent much of 2013 touring North America as the opening act for Taylor Swift's Red Tour. His second studio album is titled x, read as "multiply", and is scheduled for worldwide release on 23 June 2014. He was nominated for Best New Artist at the 56th Annual Grammy Awards. - Wikipedia Chart history (Year peak title): 2011 03 The A Team -1- MILLION SELLER 2011 04 You Need Me, I Don't Need You -2- 2011 09 Drunk -4- 2011 05 Lego House -3- 2012 35 Hush Little Baby (Wretch 32 Feat.

June 22, 201412 yr Where did the George Ezra buzz come from all of a sudden? This sounds like nothing more than a top 30 flash in the pan to me (even despite its inexplicable huge success in Germany prior to it smashing here).
June 22, 201412 yr Getting pretty sick of 'Sing' now that I've overplayed it to death, but it is undeniably brilliant anyway :wub:
June 22, 201412 yr Ooh, looks like Sing might be the new Burn with Jameela proclaiming it to shockingly be his first #1 :P
June 22, 201412 yr I will be annoyed if this goes back to #1 next week, its chart run would not be representative of how popular it was in that particular week.
June 22, 201412 yr 'Budapest' is a pretty good song, he's got a good voice on him. I don't think he'll have any other hits as big as this but I can see the song being a big seller (and his album)
June 22, 201412 yr Because if there's anyone with a reputation of 'picking up the pace', Jameela, it's Ed flupping Sheeran. Edited June 22, 201412 yr by stiggy
June 22, 201412 yr Ooh, looks like Sing might be the new Burn with Jameela proclaiming it to shockingly be his first #1 :P His first ever number 1 single in his really long career? :lol:
June 22, 201412 yr deadmau5 having another top 20 album is great to see. He'll probably never go in the singles chart again so any albums success is appreciated. Why is this? Do you just not think he's going to get another hit or has he said he's not releasing singles anymore or something? Wiley had a song recently which sampled I Remember, but I don't think he's releasing it as a single.
June 22, 201412 yr The moment of truth coming up next. It's been a while since we've had a week where two songs could potentially be the #1 :o I just hope it's Ella
