December 7, 201411 yr The Pogues and Mariah going straight into the top 20. Don't think that's happened in recent years. Usually a slower climb. :)
December 7, 201411 yr Thought this was going to fall a lot faster than it has done actually - just goes to show that releasing a quality track can hold itself in the charts. Shame the likes of James Bay and Years & Years aren't faring as well though - but I'm sure all the Critics Choice/Sound of 2015 talk should help them in the coming weeks.
December 7, 201411 yr 19 21 04 One Direction Night Changes FOUR | 2014 http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/61Kz69ilESL._AA160_.jpg Chart Run: 54-23-21-19 Release date: 14-11-2014 / 14-12-2014 Format: instant grat / digital single Label: Syco Music Chart sales: 40k+ Video here: syFZfO_wfMQ download track listing 1 Night Changes (Afterhrs Remix) 2 Night Changes (Live Acoustic Session) 3 Steal My Girl (Live Acoustic Session) Biography Following the success of JLS and the Wanted, X Factor contestants One Direction were the next group of heartthrobs to help revive the boy-band concept. The quintet outdid all of their predecessors, becoming the biggest boy band since Take That, selling millions of albums and singles, filling arenas and making movies, while hitting number one many times over across the world with undeniably hooky songs and plenty of boy next door charm. The group was formed by Niall Horan from Mullingar, Ireland; Zayn Malik from Bradford; Harry Styles from Cheshire; Louis Tomlinson from Doncaster, and Liam Payne from Wolverhampton (the latter had previously reached the judge's house stages of The X Factor as a 14-year-old back in 2008). Each originally entered 2010's seventh series of X Factor as individuals, but following a suggestion from guest judge Nicole Scherzinger, they were grouped together to become One Direction. Mentored by Simon Cowell, they soon became one of the favorites to win the show, thanks to renditions of Kelly Clarkson's "My Life Would Suck Without You," Elton John's "Something About the Way You Look Tonight," and Bonnie Tyler's "Total Eclipse of the Heart." However, despite receiving a standing ovation for their duet with Robbie Williams ("She's the One") in the live final, they eventually finished third behind Rebecca Ferguson and winner Matt Cardle. Spotting the potential of five Justin Bieber-esque teen pinups, Cowell signed them to his Syco label in a two-million dollar deal, and after performing on the X Factor tour, the quintet began work on their debut album with Savan Kotecha (Britney Spears, Enrique Iglesias). Following a sponsorship deal with Nintendo DS and a book, Forever Young, named after their cover of the Alphaville classic that was intended to be their winner's song, they released their first single, "What Makes You Beautiful," in late 2011. The full-length album Up All Night followed soon after. In 2012, One Direction became the first British band to debut on top of the Billboard 200 list when Up All Night sold over 176,000 copies during its first week of release in America. In late 2012, One Direction released their sophomore album, Take Me Home. Highlighting more of the band's melodic pop, Take Me Home featured songs and production via Sweden's Carl Falk, Rami Yacoub, and Savan Kotecha, who worked on Up All Night, as well as contributions from singer/songwriter Ed Sheeran. The album proved to be another smash and topped charts around the world, earning multi-platinum certification in half a dozen countries. The singles "Live While We're Young" and "Little Things" also hit number one across the globe, and "Kiss You" reached the Top Ten in the U.S. One Direction then embarked on a globe-spanning tour in which the band played over 100 shows, including six sold-out nights at London's massive O2 Arena. At the same time, they were being filmed by director Morgan Spurlock for This Is Us, a mix of documentary and concert footage that proved to be successful at the box office when it was released in August of 2013. While they were touring, One Direction also began work on their third album, Midnight Memories. Released just in time for the 2013 holidays, the record featured songwriting input from all the members, a new production team, and some new folk and '80s hair metal influences. It nearly outdid Take Me Home and Up All Night, peaking at number one in seven countries and spawning the singles "Best Song Ever" and "Story of My Life." - iTunes Chart history (Year peak title): 2011 01 What Makes You Beautiful -1- 2011 03 Gotta Be You -2- 2011 01 Wishing On A Star (The X Factor Finalists 2011 Feat.

December 7, 201411 yr Someone had to... Where's wrecking ball then? :lol: Chandelier was performed last week so the effect of the performance will be reflected in this week's chart as a few hours isn't enough to boost a song extremely significantly (unless it sells really really well). It's always been like this, I'm surprised you haven't noticed it before. Edited December 7, 201411 yr by FrostytheWallaby
December 7, 201411 yr This is a rather weak follow up to Steal My Girl, but I've never particularly liked 1D ballads, Little Things aside.
December 7, 201411 yr The Pogues and Mariah going straight into the top 20. Don't think that's happened in recent years. Usually a slower climb. :) Well it happened last year :P ~ 'Night Changes' still not really happening, its performance on whatever show couldn't even get it securely top 10. I do hope it can make the top 10 after XF, really liking it now.
December 7, 201411 yr Chandelier was performed last week so the effect of the performance will be reflected in this week's chart as a few hours isn't enough to boost a song extremely significantly (unless it sells really really well). It's always been like this, I'm surprised you haven't noticed it before. It still did enough to stop Chandelier dropping out the top 40 last week.

It's always been like this, I'm surprised you haven't noticed it before. Well I'd expect a short sharp sales boost over a few hours where it's bought prolifically and then tail off the rest of the week. Guess streaming pushed it back up higher.

The band reached international prominence in the 1980s and early 1990s. MacGowan left the band in 1991 due to drinking problems but the band continued first with Joe Strummer and then with Spider Stacy on vocals before breaking up in 1996. The band reformed in late 2001, and has been playing regularly ever since, most notably on the US East Coast around St Patrick's Day and across the UK and Ireland every December. The group has yet to record any new music and, according to Spider Stacy on Pogues.com, has no inclination to do so. Their politically tinged music was informed by MacGowan and Stacy's punk backgrounds, yet used traditional Irish instruments such as the tin whistle, cittern, mandolin and accordion. The Pogues were founded in Kings Cross, a district of Central London, in 1982 as Pogue Mahone—pogue mahone being the anglicisation of the Irish póg mo thóin, meaning "kiss my arse". - Wikipedia Chart history (Year peak title): The Pogues 1985 72 Pair Of Brown Eyes -1- 1985 51 Sally Maclannane -2- 1985 62 Dirty Old Town -3- 1986 29 Poguetry In Motion -EP- 1986 42 Hunted -OST- 1987 08 The Irish Rover (The Pogues & The Dubliners) -NAS- 1987 02 Fairytale Of New York (The Pogues Feat.
