November 30, 201411 yr '6 Words' isn't that bad actually, I didn't like it the first time I heard it. The only really good thing he's done for me is 'Traktor' though.

November 30, 201411 yr 'The Hanging Tree' is so gorgeous, especially when it's built up at the end :wub: Hope it can rise into the top 10 although it has decreased a lot on iTunes now.
November 30, 201411 yr So when she has a chance to explain that this is from the film, and who is actually singing, she just announces the credit and plays the record...
November 30, 201411 yr What is this horror? Guess it works better in the context of the film but even so I dislike the vocalist.
November 30, 201411 yr In places this sort of reminds me of a grander version of the theme to 90s kids TV show Round The Twist. It was a real moment in the film though, brilliant to see it in the top 20.
November 30, 201411 yr So when she has a chance to explain that this is from the film, and who is actually singing, she just announces the credit and plays the record... Is it really a big deal? :lol:

November 30, 201411 yr First time listening to 'The Hanging Tree'. It's quite strange having a classical piece in the Top 40 :lol: Good though :)

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.

November 30, 201411 yr So when she has a chance to explain that this is from the film, and who is actually singing, she just announces the credit and plays the record... OK, so she redeemed herself by back-announcing it. Fair enough.
