18. Twenty One Pilots - Stressed Out

 

100. AlunaGeorge feat. Popcaan - I'm In Control

3 Viola Beach Swings & Waterslides

Presumably, Viola Beach will reach #2 tonight, can't see them getting to #1 though.

Glad to see being track of the day has given AlunaGeorge a bit of a boost

 

'I'm In Control' really deserves to be a hit :wub:

74. Mike Posner - I Took A Pill In Ibiza

Astounding how high Viola Beach have gotten, I thought it would stall at #6!

 

Mike Posner starting to pick up airplay from Capital (and no doubt from Radio 1 soon enough), I can easily see "I Took a Pill in Ibiza" outperforming "Cooler Than Me" now

74. Mike Posner - I Took A Pill In Ibiza

 

Taking off massively in the US now, I expect this'll become a big hit in the UK too following its current US success. :cheer:

I'm so pleased to see 'I Took A Pill In Ibiza' becoming a hit, been loving that for months but just assumed it'd be one of those that fell by the wayside.

I've yet to hear the radio edit, it's just called 'Ibiza' on the Capital playlist. I'm very curious to hear it if anyone has a link.

The US radio edit only bleeps out the "f***" at the beginning and that's it.

It's now up to #64. Keep on climbing

UK and US radio are different though. I expect it'll be edited more for UK radio.

I would've expected the US edit to be more censored though, as they tend to be more conservative (at least with the CHR/Pop format).

It wouldn't surprise me if I Took A Pill In Ibiza challenged for the top spot in a month or so, the video will be out soon too which will help. I don't see anything challenging 7 Years for a few weeks away (unless a song performed at the Brits shoots a song(s) up.

 

Work will probably reclimb once the video comes out.

Capital tends not to censor too much, does it? I remember on Scream & Shout, they never censored "Britney, Bitch" even during daytime plays.

Radio 1 are well known for super-censoring songs though, wouldn't surprise me if they edited out the pill reference.

Viola Beach #2 now

Viola Beach - Boys That Sing

 

This could go top 10.
