Oh god, has streaming hampered this that much? :(

 

I hope it can get higher after Christmas. Still, this will easily outsell 'Glow' which is good for her.

What is this doing as low as 30? :(

 

I've really come to love it recently, I lost interest a bit with Glow.

Oh I forgot to say hello! :D

 

so good afternoon everyone, bit late but better late then never :P

 

Isn't that the correct way of saying it? I've always referred to the football team using the Weld-Stone pronunciation and no-one's ever picked me up on it

 

Well I may in fact be wrong but I'm fairly sure it's "Wheeled-stone". Well, it says it like that on the song anyway :)

Ella's only 18? I thought she was a bit older. My fave was 'Glow'. Wish it had a better chart run.

Yours is pretty bland...

 

Quite unlike I Loved You! Falling WAY too much though :(

This should have had a better chart run, one of the best tracks of the year!

Yours is a nice winter Ballad although not as good as some of her other stuff :(

 

Blonde dropping so much :(

All of the recent songs that were BJSC hits before charting have had short chart runs :( This song, Sunlight, Bullit, Pushing On...

I thought I Loved You might not still be in, having not looked at iTunes or anything, so very pleased to be hearing it now, it just gets better and better.

All of the recent songs that were BJSC hits before charting have had short chart runs :( This song, Sunlight, Bullit, Pushing On...

 

Don't forget Solo Dancing :cry: (though I think that was before you joined!)

Been loving the Blonde track this week. :wub:

 

Generic, but hella good!

I remember back before this was "properly" released everyone saying it'll be around forever. How right you all were!

The problem with all these dance tracks is that they are held back for far too long. Yes they get pleasing chart peaks for record labels, but they don't sell that much in the long run. Going way back to "Changes", we've had so many that deserved to sell more - "Jubel", "Walking with Elephants" and "Bullit" to name a few.

 

Alesso's "Heroes" is soon to join them in this category, and there's Mike Mago & Dragonette's "Outlines" to come out ridiculously late from its debut in 2015.

 

Either "Budapest" needs to get a good few boosts and become a million seller or it needs to bugger off - "Listen to the Man" needs its time to shine!

Budapest :wub: But for you I'd lose it all :wub::wub:

Agree with most of this. Don't expect Outlines to do anything chart-wise however.

 

Some dance tracks can pull off the longevity such as Hideaway, Waves, Nobody To Love etc. the good/genuinely popular songs will always hang around for a long time regardless of release strategy.

His 2011 debut album, +, containing the singles "The A Team" and "Lego House", was certified quintuple platinum in the United Kingdom.
