I hope he can knock Ed Sheeran, Lilly Wood or Calvin Harris out by Sunday

Speaking of which, I'm assuming that yet again, Blame and Sing have overtaken Changing. Am I correct?

No Changing is ahead of both tracks

with Bjork climbing the chart Above & Beyond will definitely miss the top 10 then :( shame as it's such an amazing album but I'm surprised it's doing this well anyway, their last studio album only went to #49!

Where are Promesses & All About That Bass? Cheers.

I'd love for "Take Me to Church" to overtake "Lips Are Movin'" before Sunday!

Mart!n, you've just made my day by saying that (though unfortunately, Blame and Sing could still catch up by Sunday, especially if one of them is one place behind Changing).

I hope Hozier doesn't take Meghan, I really like 'Lips Are Movin' now.

 

I hope Sia can make the top 10 on Sunday... damn you Ben Haenow. <_<

Heroes (We Could Be) is doing so much better than Wicked Games by Parra for Cuva! It's also beating Heroes by David Bowie. (27-26-25-24-25-25-34-39)

Not sure how those two are really that comparable :kink: Wicked Games had much less commercial appeal, and airplay, than Heroes has

Both peaked at 6, and more importantly, both are reworkings of well-known songs (Wicked Games is a reworking of Wicked Game by Chris Isaac, and Heroes (We Could Be) is a reworking of Heroes by David Bowie)

they're 2 completely different songs though, the only similarity is the 'we could be heroes' lyrical idea :wacko:

Have you even heard the track by David Bowie, it doesn't even sound nothing like it. :mellow:

 

I was wondering about this, because I remember laughing at the suggestion that Will.I.Am's 'Bang Bang' had anything to do with the Sonny Bono song and it turned out that they had given him a credit on it. Does anyone know officially what the position is with 'Heroes'?

WHOAH WHOAH WHOAH guys chill :)

 

I compare Heroes to Outside, to be fair they've had similar runs :thinking:

 

Trying to get me to listen to Bowie's Heroes? :thinking:

 

Well googled the lyrics anyway http://userserve-ak.last.fm/serve/126/102951665.gif and all I really saw slightly similar was the "we could be Heroes, just for one day"

 

from Wikipedia: "The song's lyrics are partially taken from "'Heroes'" (1977) by David Bowie.[1] The lyrics of each of the stanzas differ entirely from Bowie's. "

 

OK, well it certainly doesn't look like it's enough to be even partially taken. If a song says "dance all night" and another one says the same words... yes? :rolleyes:

 

Any other comparisons? From a quick glance of the lyrics I do not see any, oops :mellow:

Bowie does indeed have a credit on Alesso's track.

I would imagine that's probably to prevent a lawsuit over the singular line that's similar to the Bowie song :lol:

I have actually, and they don't sound similar. However, usually remixes don't sound anything like the original, but they're still reworking of the track!
