If I remember correctly Zanetti was 'In the Mix' with Danny Howard last Saturday, so he must have some skills as a DJ/producer

I do wish the payola would stop but manipulation like this is hardly anything new, record companies have just had to find a new way of getting around things to make money and get their artists' songs into the charts.

I'd like to see Spotify do a better job at localising hits, they have playlists exclusively for different countries, but it's clear that their intention is to game a song into the charts, otherwise they wouldn't put the same random flops on all of Today's Top Hits, Hot Hits UK, Hot Hits Australia, Hot Hits New Zealand, Hot Hits Canada etc for 6 straight months.

Edited November 21, 20168 yr by 🎄cqmerqn🎄

I'd like to see Spotify do a better job at localising hits, they have playlists exclusively for different countries, but it's clear that their intention is to game a song into the charts, otherwise they wouldn't put the same random flops on all of Today's Top Hits, Hot Hits UK, Hot Hits Australia, Hot Hits New Zealand, Hot Hits Canada etc for 6 straight months.

 

I'd agree with that. The likes of Please Don't Go, Fresh Eyes and When You Love Someone have interesting been loitering around near enough the same peaks for around the same amount of time in both the UK and Sweden.

 

Indeed, When You Love Someone has basically done nothing on sales but bagged itself a spot on the new Now album, mainly I would assume due to its huge volume of passive curated playlist listens bagging it a run in the top 75! So from essentially just being put onto a prominent Spotify playlist, it's now going to bag itself a spot in around a million homes, as that's the amount the winter Now albums generally sell. Mind boggling exposure for something that really hasn't caught on at all!

Wham also top 100!

It goes to show that to have a hit in the UK you NEED the Hot Hits UK playlist support (to get to the the top 50 playlist). The Vamps, struggled with streaming up until they were added, and are not looking to probably re-enter the top 40. What a bizarre chart run they'll have because of being added to that playlist so late.

Whoever compared 'You Want Me' to 'Wearing My Rolex' has it spot on I think... similar beat and female vocals.

The Pogues 108

Michael Buble 127

Shakin' Stevens 138

 

Also Charlie XCX is 141

Sigma/Birdy have had a big climb to #32 <3 Hope it can become a big hit! That's about all of interest in today's chart! Nothing new into the top 50 but The xx nearly re-entered again!

 

Also Sean/Dua are #175!

1. Rockabye (429k)
