Sax was released on Adolphe Sax's birthday

Good result for Fleur. A nice catchy pop song, nothing out of this world for me but I enjoy it.

Sax is absolutely fantastic.

For some reason, I wouldn't be too surprised if Sorry and Hello could do a Cheerleader and See You Again this week.

Well we WERE short of Uptown Funk clones.

 

(sounds rather good so far)

Sax grown on me a loooot, at first it was nothing to me, but now I absolutely love it!

Biography

Justin Drew Bieber (/ˈbiːbər/; born March 1, 1994) is a Canadian singer and songwriter. Bieber's current manager, Scooter Braun, first discovered him through his YouTube videos in 2007. Braun, as noted, was impressed with the videos resulting in contacting Bieber's mother, Patricia Mallette, about wanting to work with his musical abilities. Moreover, him having convinced his mother, Braun arranged for Bieber to meet with singer-songwriter, Usher, in Atlanta, Georgia. As a result, Bieber was signed to RBMG, a record label based in Atlanta, then to Island Records -- part of Def Jam Records -- with a recording contract offered by a prominent record executive, L.A. Reid.

 

He released his debut EP, My World, in November 2009. It has been certified platinum in the United States. He became the first artist to have seven songs from a debut record to chart on the Billboard Hot 100. Bieber released his first full-length studio album, My World 2.0, in March 2010. It debuted at or near number one in several countries and was certified platinum in the United States. It was preceded by the single, "Baby", which is also, as of July 2014, the YouTube video with the most dislikes, and the most views on a Vevo platform. He followed up the release of his debut album with his first headlining tour, the My World Tour, the remix album titled, My Worlds Acoustic, and Never Say Never – The Remixes, and the 3D biopic-concert film Justin Bieber: Never Say Never. Bieber released his second studio album, Under the Mistletoe, in November 2011 when it debuted at number one on the Billboard 200. Bieber released his third studio album, Believe, in June 2012.

 

He has received numerous industry awards, including both Artist of the Year Awards at the 2010 American Music Awards, and the 2012 American Music Awards. He has been nominated for Best New Artist and Best Pop Vocal Album at the 53rd Grammy Awards. With his growing national and international fan base, they have been dubbed "beliebers" who largely consist of early to mid-adolescent women. He has millions of "followers" on Twitter and other social media accounts. He has been listed three times by Forbes magazine as one of the top ten most powerful celebrities in the world in 2011, 2012, and 2013. - Wikipedia

Biography

Adele Laurie Blue Adkins MBE (/əˈdɛl/; born 5 May 1988) is a British singer and songwriter. Graduating from the BRIT School for Performing Arts and Technology in 2006, Adele was given a recording contract by XL Recordings after a friend posted her demo on Myspace the same year. In 2007, she received the Brit Awards "Critics' Choice" award and won the BBC Sound of 2008. Her debut album, 19, was released in 2008 to commercial and critical success. It is certified four times platinum in the UK, and double platinum in the U.S. An appearance she made on Saturday Night Live in late 2008 boosted her career in the U.S. At the 51st Annual Grammy Awards, Adele received the awards for Best New Artist and Best Female Pop Vocal Performance.

 

Adele released her second studio album, 21, in early 2011. The album was well received critically and surpassed the success of her debut, earning the singer numerous awards in 2012, including a record-tying six Grammy Awards, including Album of the Year; two Brit Awards, including British Album of the Year, and three American Music Awards. The album has been certified 16 times platinum in the UK, and is the fourth best-selling album in the UK of all time. In the U.S. it has held the top position longer than any album since 1985, and is certified Diamond. The album has sold 30 million copies worldwide.

 

The success of 21 earned Adele numerous mentions in the Guinness Book of World Records. She is the first woman in the history of the Billboard Hot 100 to have three simultaneous top 10 singles as a lead artist, and the first female artist to simultaneously have two albums in the top five of the Billboard 200 and two singles in the top five of the Billboard Hot 100. 21 is the longest running number one album by a female solo artist in the history of the UK and U.S. Album Charts. In 2011 and 2012, Billboard named Adele Artist of the Year.

 

In 2012, Adele was listed at number five on VH1's 100 Greatest Women in Music, and Time magazine named her one of the most influential people in the world. In 2013, she received an Academy Award, a Grammy Award, and a Golden Globe Award for Best Original Song for her song "Skyfall", which she wrote and composed for the James Bond film of the same name. Adele's third studio album, 25, will be released on 20 November 2015. - Wikipedia

Sorry is really good, I actually wish it could have been number one at some point.

Hello is far better though.

Biography

Format:B are a German tech-house duo consisting of Franziskus Sell and Jakob Hildenbrand. Since the mid-2000s, the hard-working duo has reliably produced dozens of minimal yet funky dancefloor bangers, displaying a keen sense of detail and a subtly playful edge. Sell and Hildenbrand met while attending courses at audio engineering school SAE Institute Berlin. The Berlin-based Hildenbrand had already experimented with electronic music production, and Sell had been a DJ in his hometown of Erfurt in East Germany. The pair began releasing 12" singles on Highgrade Records in 2005, followed swiftly by more releases on Stil Vor Talent and Opossum Recordings. Highgrade released Format:B's debut full-length, the continuously mixed Steam Circuit, in late 2008. Following the album's success, the duo became in-demand DJs and toured around the globe. In late 2009, the duo founded their own label, Formatik Records, and began releasing their own recordings (including club hits such as "Gospel" and "Dog Tag") as well as tracks by Daniel Steinberg, DJ Madskillz, Tobi Kramer, and other artists. The duo also established a successful residency in conjunction with the Formatik label at Berlin's Watergate club. Format:B released their second full-length album, Restless, on their own label in late 2011, followed by a series of remix 12"s in 2012. The duo continued releasing tracks on Formatik, as well as gigging throughout the world. - iTunes

Adolphe Sax may not have noticed (201-year-olds can be quite absent-minded) but I bet if someone around Fleur's management did.

Adolphe Sax may not have noticed (201-year-olds can be quite absent-minded) but I bet if someone around Fleur's management did.

It does seem too convenient to be a coincidence.

Having Fleur makin a copy of Uptown Funk after stealing that song on the X Factor and forching M R to rush release his though :lol:

Don't know if anyone else has noticed this but the radio edit of The Hills still isn't completely clean. All the expletives have been removed except for the second part of the chorus "I only f*** you when it's half past five" if you listen closely enough the word hasn't been removed.
