Lost Kings feat Tinashe - Quit You

Major Lazer feat Nicki Minaj & PARTYNEXTDOOR - Run Up

Martin Garrix & Dua Lipa - Scared To Be Lonely

Sophie Ellis Bextor – Wild Forever

Zara Larsson feat Ty Dolla $ign - So Good

Give it up for Tinasha!

Hype! Hope Major Lazer, Zara and Martin can all debut top 10, and James Arthur can debut top 20 but I'm being optimistic here.

Downloaded Martin Garrix/Dua Lipa :wub: Dua coming for another Top 10.

502 Martin Garrix & Dua Lipa - Scared To Be Lonely

655 Zara Larsson - So Good (feat. Ty Dolla $ign)

921 Gallant x Tablo x Eric Nam - Cave Me In

1127 Jamiroquai - Automaton

 

I noticed quite a few things on the climb...

 

13. NEIKED- Sexual (due to CBB)

39. Childish Gambino- Redbone

42. Oh Wonder - All We Do

 

20. Major Lazer - Run Up (feat. PARTYNEXTDOOR & Nicki Minaj)

58. Rag'n'Bone Man - Skin

 

181. Martin Garrix & Dua Lipa - Scared to Be Lonely

272. Zara Larsson - So Good (feat. Ty Dolla $ign)

644. Gallant x Tablo x Eric Nam - Cave Me In

668. Jamiroquai - Automaton

I would love to see Lost Kings & Tinashe enter somewhere.

 

If radio gave it a chance I think it would be a top 10 hit, it sounds so like something that could smash in today's climate.

CBB gave Sexual a huge boost! :o

20. Major Lazer ft Nicki Minaj & PARTYNEXTDOOR - Run Up

47. Rag'n'Bone Man - Skin

60. Martin Garrix & Dua Lipa - Scared To Be Lonely

83. Zara Larsson ft Ty Dolla $ign - So Good

Good progress ^_^

39. Rag'n'Bone Man - Skin

41. Martin Garrix & Dua Lipa - Scared to be Lonely

49. Zara Larsson ft Ty Dolla $ign - So Good

 

 

Major Lazer is having a really underwhelming start in the US, I wonder if that'll be echoed here.

19. Major Lazer ft Nicki Minaj & PARTYNEXTDOOR - Run Up

32. Martin Garrix & Dua Lipa - Scared to be Lonely

35. Rag'n'Bone Man - Skin

42. Zara Larsson ft Ty Dolla $ign - So Good

 

The Garrix track is so generic. Dua sounds great on it though!

 

On first listen, I'm liking the new Rag'n'Bone man more than 'Human' already :o

 

And new Jamiroquai is surprisingly brilliant :dance:

Lol @ James Blunt going all contemporary with his production. The song's alright to be fair but the lyrics are awful!

I hope Jamiroquai can get another top 40 hit

Unlikely
