James Bay top 2? That was unexpected :o

 

Well, depends if you've followed the mids all week or not I guess :kink: Delighted anyway, Hold Back the River is in my top 5 of the year :wub:

Thought I'd get bored on "King" after it premiered back in January, but still love it. Great to see it's looking to hang around for a while too, Years & Years are fantastic. Thrilled to see three Brits in the T3 with their respective hits!

Pretty good top 2 at least! Amazing that James Bay has ended up reaching the top 2 and fab for Jess getting that third #1 after 'Right Here' missed out.

Thought I'd get bored on "King" after it premiered back in January, but still love it. Great to see it's looking to hang around for a while too, Years & Years are fantastic. Thrilled to see three Brits in the T3 with their respective hits!

 

Yeah King hasn't even slightly started to tire on me yet, whereas Desire did so quickly!

 

YES James Slay :cheer:

Hold back the river is so boring :zzz: And James Bay is awful :puke2: Gosh this is going to be here until like October isn't it

 

Yay for Jess at #1, great song even though right here is 100000000000x better :wub:

To think it would perform like this when you consider its second week drop!

 

Lucky Jess Glynne chose this week to release though.

Hold Back The River is beautiful, so pleased it made it to number 2. Maybe it will manage to get to number one, if it's lucky.
I hadn't made the connection of a 'Hold...' top two at all, haha! Would much rather have seen James Bay at number one, really disappointing effort from Jess. :(
I bet that in about eight weeks, James Bey will get Ed Sheeran/Sam Smith-esque rants in here and tens of thousands of "Can please Hold Back The River leave the chart" posts.

My favourite Top 3 of 2015 so far! Brilliant! :)

 

Pleased to see Jess Glynne get a solo number 1 this week :)
