stealing my job? :lol:

stealing my job? :lol:

And here was me thinking you were 'brb' ;)

Looks like Martin Garrix didn't make it in the end.
I'm guessing the rise for 'Boom Clap' down to Only the Young's performance on X Factor? Probably my least favourite of their performances, but still good. Great song. :wub:
Looks like Martin Garrix didn't make it in the end.

 

It looks like he has made it to me - we definitely have a 4th new entry besides the 3 from the mids, it'll either be 'Gold Skies' or 'Medicine' and the former seems more likely. That is unless they've counted a re-entry as a new entry of course.

Wednesday midweek update:

 

1 Ed Sheeran - Thinking Out Loud

2 Meghan Trainor - All About That Bass

3 Taylor Swift - Shake It Off

And here was me thinking you were 'brb' ;)

Almost, but I'm on the forum, just not on Skype, preparing something on my pc :lol:

helloo

3- EAT SLEEP RAVE REPEAT- Fatboy Slim & Riva Starr Ft Beardyman (55,743) big club anthem! :music:

6- CHILDREN OF THE SUN- Tinie Tempah Ft John Martin (37,898) this felt like a desperate attempt at a big hit, it's alright but glad it underperformed

8- SHOW ME LOVE (AMERICA)- The Wanted (36,052) same comment as above, except in this case the song is AWFUL

not looking forward to Boring Out Loud going to #1 but at least it's deserving of it from a popularity aspect and it breaks a chart record.

Biography

Maroon 5 (formerly known as Kara's Flowers) is an American pop rock band that originated in Los Angeles, California. The group was formed in 1994 as Kara's Flowers while its members were still in high school. The original members of the band were: Adam Levine, Jesse Carmichael, Mickey Madden and Ryan Dusick; they signed to Reprise Records and released an album, The Fourth World, in 1997. After a tepid response to the album, the band parted ways with the record label and the members attended college. In 2001, the band regrouped, with James Valentine added to the lineup, and pursued a new direction under the name: Maroon 5.

 

The band signed with Octone Records and released their debut album, Songs About Jane, in June 2002. The album's lead single "Harder to Breathe", received heavy airplay, which helped the album to debut at number six on the Billboard 200 chart. The album's second and third singles, "This Love" and "She Will Be Loved", became worldwide hits reaching the top five on the Billboard Hot 100 chart. The band won the Grammy Award for Best New Artist in 2005. For the next few years, the band toured extensively worldwide in support of Songs About Jane and produced two live recordings: 2004's 1.22.03.Acoustic and 2005's Live – Friday the 13th. In 2006, drummer, percussionist and backing vocalist Ryan Dusick left the band and was replaced by Matt Flynn. The band recorded their second album, It Won't Be Soon Before Long, and released in May 2007. The album reached number one on the US Billboard 200 chart and the lead single, "Makes Me Wonder", became the band's first number-one song on the Billboard Hot 100.

 

Hands All Over, the band's third studio album was released in September 2010 and peaked at number two on the Billboard 200 chart. In 2011, the album was re-released and supported by their single "Moves like Jagger" featuring American singer Christina Aguilera. The song became the band's second single to reach number one on the Hot 100 chart; it has sold over 14.4 million copies worldwide, making it one of the best-selling singles worldwide. The band released their fourth studio album, Overexposed, in June 2012. The album peaked at number two on the Billboard 200 chart. The first two singles from the album "Payphone" and "One More Night", were both international hits and peaked at two and one on the Hot 100 chart respectively.

 

In 2014, the band signed Interscope Records and recorded their fifth studio album, V, which is set to be released on September 2, 2014.

 

Since its debut in 2002, the band has sold more than 10 million albums in the United States and over 30.8 million digital singles and 27 million albums worldwide.

 

In 2013, Maroon 5 became the third most-played artist on Top 40 Mainstream radio, based on Clear Channel owned Mediabase, becoming one of the most successful acts of Interscope Records. - Wikipedia
