This week's new Alan Walker track is a bit dull and slow, more like the indie electronica that has been so popular this decade than dance music (although I am sure it is classified as dance) I much prefer Move Your Body.

Charli still 59p too :D

Oh please let DOMO die already :no:

 

Cmon JP Cooper tho & Louisa from those 59p tracks!

Claim Scott should have made his new song 59p instead of DOMO

It may not have been his decision, iTunes sometimes reduce songs of their own accord.

Sigma is also 59p and so is Alissa Cara too.

It was weird Sigma staying 2 weeks official low top 40 this time, whereas Cry entered higher but dropped like a stone

I would have liked it if iTunes had sprung on the impact that Sia's single Alive had this week as that surely would have given it a big push.

+ Lady Gaga - Million Reasons

 

this has to go top 5 after The X Factor performancce :w00t:

Wonderful Christmastime top 100 (this one seems to be more popular than usual this year on itunes), such a great Christmas tune from the early days of electropop (I really like the synths in it)

640. Alan Walker - Alone

 

Won't even chart as high as Sing Me To Sleep did at this rate.

 

I get bored listening to the same xmas tracks year on year especially this early in the month of December, personally I don't know why people download/ streamed year on year, surely they would have got them on their devices from previous years, sorry Jonjo I'm in Scrooge mode at the moment, getting in character. :D bah... humbug...

I really hope 'Santa Tell Me' can gain enough momentum to get a top 25 play! I doubt it, but I hope.

 

Is Sia releasing a new song more or less every other week or something? :lol: Hope Imagine Dragons can do well!

Looks like we have a winner of the classic Xmas battle between Mariah and Pogues.

 

 

Mariah is being performed by Saara (2nd fave to win) on X Factor tomorrow! *.*

 

It's not even a battle anymore ever since streaming came into effect, Mariah will win every year now.
