OMI ~ denied a #1 by record label stupidity :snif: :(

 

'Cheerleader' sounds so amazing in the sun! :wub: :dancing: :wub:

 

 

Surprised to see how few hit albums Lulu has had.

Pleased for See You Again, very nice, heartfelt song and a perfectly worthy number 1. OMI's song is nice, though it's not massively clicking with me in the same way these subtle kinda hits tend to do.

 

Cheerleader is really quite good isn't it? One of my favourite dance songs around easily :heart:

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

Beginning to grow to this now, never seen any of the films so that aspect is totally lost on me but I can appreciate it's a decent track.

 

Would love to see the difference in opinion on here if it was Wiz Khalifa ft. Sam Smith though (which it may as well be).

Album chart new entries (6-40)

 

Halestorm just about hanging onto the top 10, yay. They've done so well to go from scraping the top 50 to getting a midweek #1 in just 3 years though :o

 

Great to see Tyler, The Creator getting a new highest peak as well, after releasing just 5 days after the album announcement as well. And all the albums I prepped stayed top 40, hooray! :P

I took a bit of a punt on them all staying in. At least that didn't add to the hurried revision :D

Wow Fester Skank was #6 on the sales chart! Defiantly his closest song for a solo top ten.
Such a shame about "Cheerleader", but at least it should be a long running hit!

It will probably end up being the biggest selling non #1 of 2015
