Glitterball falling this much :( I'm fearing it's going to crash down for here.

And no, Mirror Man has not hacked my account.

6 places this far into its run is hardly the end of the world.

It possibly just seems a lot because it was at #14 on Monday.

Glitterball has done very well actually, wasn't sure if it would have 6 weeks in the top 20. 'Higher' was #75 at this stage of its run.

Biography

Major Lazer is an electronic music project created by American DJ and record producer Diplo initially collaborating with English DJ/producer Switch. The two parted ways in late 2011. Diplo has since enlisted producers/DJs Jillionaire and Walshy Fire (of Black Chiney) to help with the production and live shows. Their music spans numerous genres, usually fusing reggae and dancehall music with dance genres such as moombahton and electro house.

 

Major Lazer have released two full length albums – Guns Don't Kill People... Lazers Do and Free the Universe, released in 2009 and 2013 respectively. They released an EP entitled Apocalypse Soon in March 2014, which featured vocal contributions from Pharrell Williams and Sean Paul. Major Lazer also produced Reincarnated, the debut reggae album by Snoop Dogg under his Snoop Lion persona. - Wikipedia

Here's hoping Peanut Butter Jelly isn't next so it gets a top 15 peak!
I'm really liking Do It Again at the moment.
