March 4, 201610 yr I do like Pillowtalk (I'm not writing in caps, no way) but its quality is more than offset by Zayn himself.

Teaming up with, incredible young vocal talent, Dakota, Blue has swapped the original’s lilting guitar for an upbeat tropical house sound. 21 year old Jonas Blue has been busy perfecting his craft as a producer, spending time collaborating in studios in L.A, Stockholm and London. Blue takes his musical cues from pop and classic dance music, as well as from the Tropical House sounds of producers such as Felix Jaehn, Lost Frequencies and Kygo. His latest single came about when he had the idea to recreate one of his mother’s favourite songs that he remembered hearing on repeat as a child. Crafting the music came naturally to him but the difficult part was finding a voice who had the richness and depth that made the original so special. On an autumn night in an East London pub however, Jonas heard a unique, bluesy voice coming from the basement. He immediately knew he'd found the singer for his version of Tracey Chapman's classic 'Fast Car', that singer was Dakota. The very next day she was in the studio with him to record the song, and the results were just as he'd hoped for. - Facebook Chart history - Top 100 (Year peak title): Jonas Blue 2016 02 Fast Car (Jonas Blue Feat.

March 4, 201610 yr I mentioned This Woman's Work by Kate Bush once today when Work From Home (undeservedly) outpeaked it. Now I'll mention it again when I say I dearly hope it never ever ever receives this treatment.
March 4, 201610 yr these vocals sound incredibly weak and make the song duller than it actually is Everything about it is horrid. The synths sound like Kygo on a fisher price keyboard.

Born on December 16, 1997 in Stockholm, Larsson inked a deal with Ten Music Group after winning Talang, and issued her debut EP, Introducing, which featured the hit single "Uncover," in 2013. The song was certified triple platinum in her home country, and after another EP, Allow Me to Reintroduce Myself, Larsson began work on her official debut long-player. The resulting 1 arrived in 2014 via Record Company Ten and Universal Music. Three additional singles reached the Swedish Top Ten: "She's Not Me," "Carry You Home," and "Rooftop." A pair of new singles for 2015 proved to be her international breakthrough; first "Lush Life" reached the Top Ten across Europe, then "Never Forget You" (featuring MNEK) hit the Top Ten in Great Britain. - iTunes Chart history - Top 100 (Year peak title): 2015 05 Never Forget You (MNEK & Zara Larsson) -1- 2016 04 Lush Life -2- 2016 15 Girls Like (Tinie Tempah Feat.

March 4, 201610 yr Fast Car is great, shame it's not at 4. Lush Life is still a decent song though. I feel as though Fast Car hasn't had the success it's deserved, though, I'd have really liked it to have gone to number one :(
March 4, 201610 yr Lush Life is absolutely amazing. It probably won't make it to number one, but it's done fantastic regardless.
