Quite liked 'This Is How We Do' on first (full) listen. Possibly better than 'Birthday', certainly a lot better than 'Unconditionally'.

Biography

Rather than the usual bombast or snooze-inducing "relaxation music," the U.K. six-piece known as Clean Bandit mash classical music and pop forms for an airy and dreamy yet driven sound that's like the chamber music version of house music. The core four-piece of the group were known as the Chatto Quartet, a classically trained string quartet that performed J.S. Bach and cited Jacqueline du Pré as an influence, but their post-show, wind-down music often consisted of garage, two-step, Craig David, and Arcade Fire tracks. The quartet members were aware of both producer Jon Wandeck and MC Ssegamic through the duo's work in photography, and when Wandeck suggested they play on one of his house music cuts, Clean Bandit were born. With MC Ssegamic on the mike, they released the classical-meets-house-meets-hip-hop-meets-heartbreak song "Telephone Banking" in the summer of 2011. Their Dance Armstrong mixtape followed in 2012, while 2013 saw the release of their Mozart's House EP. - iTunes

What a rise! Out of the top 40 on Tuesday to very nearly top 30 come Sunday, phenomenal staying power.
Rather Be :wub: still loving it, never gets old.
"Rather Be" is great but I'm still sad that its success totally eclipsed "Extraordinary" which was as every bit as good.

Agreed, I actually prefer Extraordinary by a sizeable margin.

Rather Be is going to climb further next week with that Weds Radio 1 show.
hallelujah @ let it go finally leaving the top40 :yahoo: :cheer: :yahoo:
