Can he release Dollar Signs next please? 🙌

Pray To God first please :heart: Saying that, I'd like some new single announcement soon because Outside doesn't seem like it'll get a new peak anyway and he could take advantage of the low sales period to sneak in another top 10 hit.

YES please.

 

Pray To God is ridiculously overrated.

Britney needs to release something quickly to freshen up the charts.

 

Definitely, she just needs radio support for longevity.

 

"Blame" was the first song I listened to in 2015.

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

I still love this, its nice to hear it once in a while :music:
Wowzers so good to hear 'Rather Be' back in the chart! :wub: :wub: :wub:

Now I don't hear it EVERYWHERE (as much) I can appreciate it's return a bit more!

 

I give it 3/4 weeks and it will be ahead of Real Love :lol:

Phresh bug I love it anyway.

Edited by T Boy

Do you think 'Rather Be' is the best dance song of the year? Vote for it here if you do ^_^

Rather Be though :wub: a future classic definitely!

Why the hell is "Rather Be" back in the chart. Second most annoying song of 2014 behind "Happy"
Still such a lush song, Jess Glynne replicated it so well live on TOTP as well. :heart: It will definitely be the track that I look back fondly on for 2014!
Loving having 'Rather Be' back in the Top 40. This still sounds fresh....a lot fresher than 'Real Love' even though it's been everywhere for almost a year now! :o

YAAAS Rather Be!

 

I agree about this being a future classic :D

Oh I have a massive Shakespeare essay to be doing too but no thanks.

 

 

So the top 40 is a priority :lol:

Why the hell is "Rather Be" back in the chart. Second most annoying song of 2014 behind "Happy"

 

Hadji in negative comment shocker.

 

I suppose being performed on TOTP and Jools Holland is a factor. My mum hadn't heard it before and now she lives it.
