March 1, 201511 yr Thought this was 'Babycakes' for a split second because of the laughter bit right at the start ! This is a lovely pop song though, shame about the drop.
March 1, 201511 yr George Ezra was unfortunate to break out in the same year as Ed Sheeran and Sam Smith went stratospheric, otherwise, I think he may have won quite a few BRITs. I know, he didn't win a single award, when in most other years he likely would have been the most awarded act of the night.
March 1, 201511 yr Mightily frustrating that Axwell^Ingrosso, The Disciples & Madonna were blocked from the top20 by - 'Chandelier', 'Up' & 'Budapest' - such staleness ~
March 1, 201511 yr For some strange reason 'Up' reminds me of Christmas but it was released at the start of January!! :wacko:It entered the chart just before Christmas though, because it was performed on X Factor, so maybe that's why! :D

March 1, 201511 yr 15 88 06 Sam Smith Lay Me Down In The Lonely Hour | 2014 http://a4.mzstatic.com/eu/r30/Music3/v4/50/fe/9c/50fe9c2f-a091-381d-199c-90df3ca43353/cover170x170.jpeg Chart Run 2014: 46-60-90 Chart Run: 87-88-15 Re-release date: 22-02-2015 Format: digital single Label: Capitol Records Chart sales: 100k+ Sales only chart peak: 46 Streaming only chart peak: - Video here: HaMq2nn5ac0 Biography Although the first solo single from soul-inspired, London-born artist Sam Smith was issued in early 2013, it was his soaring vocal contribution to Disclosure's October 2012 U.K. garage track "Latch" which brought him to most people's attention. 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 - Top 100 (Year peak title): 2012 11 Latch (Disclosure Feat.
