'History' FINALLY out of the top 10 :party:

History is good, but Perfect was better and it's starting to outstay its welcome.

'History' is alright, but nowhere near their best. I'd say it's actually pretty lower tier.

History had an amazing chart run so far :wub:

What Do You Mean? is easily the best of his 3 monster hits.

History :puke:

Shame this couldn't go top 10 :( it's a fairly nice song and would've been a fantastic tribute! Nonetheless, #11 is still good for them. R.I.P. Viola Beach, such a tragic event.

*cue a certain user claiming #11 is disrespectful*

Noo :(

 

I haven't heard this, but it being #11 seems really... disappointing, like when Ugly Heart fell there. In reality, it doesn't really matter, but it would've felt a nicer tribute.

I still feel sad about this. Such a good song though, I'm gutted it missed the top 10.

poor Viola Beach just missing the top 10 :(

 

their death was really sad to hear about, and the song is decent too.

Viola Beach really deserved a top 10 place this week :( .

This a really good song. :( Such a shame. RIP to them

Aww that's a shame to have missed the top 10. It's only one number but it does feel a little less triumphant than getting there.

 

R.I.P once again, it's still a fitting tribute to have gotten virtual unknowns this high following such a tragedy.

This Viola Beach song has a 90's brit-pop feel to it.

I echo other sentiments that a top 10 would have been a nicer tribute.

This is the first time I've heard the Viola Beach song in full, it's nice! It's been compared a lot to the landfill indie of 2005/2006 but I prefer it to most of that. It's melodic for starters.
