Ever heard of the Saturdays song? :P

Just funny how both of these are played on plug.dj a lot ^_^

Yeah I know the song, I still don't get why it's funny though. Never mind :)

Well the John Legend version of 'Lay Me Down' is out now. Expecting this to go straight to #1. Sigh.

I heard it a few times over the past months but not that much. Capital has been playing GDFR (not sure about Radio 1 though). Seems like the sort of song that'd be big on Vine too. Also the song has been around for an eternity, they've held it back for probably about 6 months. Still wasn't expecting it to get #1 on iTunes though.

Yeah GDFR is quite an old song now, it was used as the official theme song for WWE Summerslam 2014 which took place in August. I didn't think it would get to #1 on iTunes as well but there was someone here who consistently thought that it would (but I cant remember the person's name).

Well the John Legend version of 'Lay Me Down' is out now. Expecting this to go straight to #1. Sigh.

 

Oh... right... is this a separate release, or combined with the original :unsure: I'm guessing its a separate release as John Legend is added, so we might get 2 versions of the track inside the 40. :( mess...

It'll be combined as it's the same song.

It'll be combined as it's the same song.

 

Thanks, I thought it was the case, looks better now, I don't have to add John Legend to the credit :D just remains as a Sam Smith track.

Did the John Legend version of Lay Me Down have any pre-orders?

No, I think it was announced and released this morning.

This is doing so well :o Only has TV airplay so far, impact date's not for a while yet so radio play hasn't begun! (if it's gonna happen at all, who knows what happened with Beg For It...)

Haha @leethommo knows everything.. he said Sam Smith and John Legend were doing this a few weeks ago, but thought they were doing it for the BRITs, not Comic Relief

Just heard the Usher song and actually it's not too bad. Apart from the cow noises :wacko:

Lay Me Down already inside the top ten combined... It's extremely impressive that Sam will get his fifth top ten (sixth if you count La La La) from In the Lonely Hour when it has already shifted +1.5m.

Not to take away from that impressive stat, but I don't think 'Lay Me Down' would have quite made the Top 10 without Comic Relief / John Legend.

Think you might be confusing that with Rihanna's ad-libs on FourFiveSeconds ;)

That Flo Rida thing really needs to STOP. Right now.

I was looking at an archive iTunes thread from exactly a year ago and I am quite baffled as to how Tsunami (Jump) managed to get #1 in the official chart. Route 94 were #1 for almost that whole week :huh:

 

I can easily see GDFR performing exactly the same as Tsunami (Jump) did on iTunes exactly a year ago, especially as the lead it has over #2 right now isn't a big one.

Let's remember that streaming is involved now and will most likely favour Years & Years. Flo Rida's slowed down considerably now and doesn't have too big a lead so it wouldn't shock me to see him enter at #2. If he's at #1 it won't be by much.
