For most of his teens, Smith balanced study with music, soaking in the raw and passionate approach to performance exemplified by his favorite artists at that time such as Aretha Franklin, Stevie Wonder, and Chaka Khan. "Latch" hit the upper reaches of the U.K. singles chart when Smith was 21, and many were surprised when his debut solo track took a more tempered path. The production on February 2013's "Lay Me Down" — also courtesy of the ordinarily dancefloor-focused duo Disclosure — recalled the stripped-back material that had proved successful for Adele in the preceding years. Next, Shahid Khan — aka Naughty Boy — decided to follow his Emeli Sandé-fronted U.K. Top Ten hit "Wonder" with the infectious, Bollywood sample-driven "La La La." Featuring Smith's powerful lead vocal, it became an instant May 2013 U.K. number one single following his spring tour in support of Sandé. - iTunes Chart history (Year peak title): 2012 11 Latch (Disclosure Feat.

August 3, 201412 yr So very bored of 'Stay With Me'. Definitely need to check out his new one that is high on iTunes, especially as apparently Dianna Agron is in the video! :wub: Edited August 3, 201412 yr by Jade
August 3, 201412 yr Was Money not the first single and Stay with me single 2 and Lay me Down a instant grat?
August 3, 201412 yr Was Money not the first single and Stay with me single 2 and Lay me Down a instant grat? No. He didn't have an instant grat. 'Lay Me Down' was the first single but didn't chart until 'Money On My Mind' came out.

August 3, 201412 yr I really like 'One Day (Vandaag)' aside from the saxophone-only sections, a trend that I'm not really loving in dance music right now (I'm aware the song is older than the trend etc. but still). Hope it can enter the top 10 next week anyhow.
August 3, 201412 yr Looks like Bakermat is another victim of streaming. Hopefully it will climb next week! :)
August 3, 201412 yr When will your non-Martin Luther King sampled faves. ANYWAY, this is actually quite good, I'm glad I'm finally listening to it after it's been advertised to me so much on Spotify as of late. :lol:
August 3, 201412 yr Bakermat top 15! :heart: another lovely sax tune, such a shame that R1/Capital haven't supported it, could have gone top 10 otherwise.
August 3, 201412 yr Imagine how proud Martin Luther King would have been to know that after his death, somebody would play a clip of him talking over some boring elevator music.
August 3, 201412 yr No. He didn't have an instant grat. 'Lay Me Down' was the first single but didn't chart until 'Money On My Mind' came out. Was wondering thought Lay got to the top 50 due to a mention at the Brits. Funny how Nirvana didn't chart, one of my favs of his now!
August 3, 201412 yr Loving this on first listen. Better than "Jubel", but "Changes" is still my favourite of the three. Hoping to see it climb next week then when the streaming can hopefully pick up.
August 3, 201412 yr in the realm of sax dance Jubel is pretty much my favourite song of all time, Sonnentanz was one of my favourites of last year, Wicked Wonderland is my favourite song right now, Changes I love too... but I've never been able to get into this :( This song also samples some speech and has sax, though it's a fairly different sound; I personally like it a lot more: 3LKr14P5R_w
August 3, 201412 yr Bakermat has done brilliantly considering it's had next to zero radio support (outside of capital xtra I guess) :heart:
