June 2, 20179 yr The fact its going to be top 5 (well going by how far ahead it was on sales on Kworb for the week) will generate a fair bit of news. Now if only people vote accordingly come next Thursday I read somewhere that the song has been supposedly opening peoples eyes to what a scornful old bint Teresa May is - well not particularly worded like that but you get my idea :magic:
June 2, 20179 yr Surely being impartial is to play it tho? If they're showing they disagree with anti-Conservative media, doesn't that reflect bias? Just saying that considering BBC is meant to reflect the voice of the people of Britain, they should play whatever's in the charts, because it's the choice of the public, not them. They're not disagreeing with it, they're remaining impartial. Whether the BBC do have a Tory bias or not is another discussion, we do have a politics forum if people are interested in the subject.
June 2, 20179 yr They'll have to explain why they're skipping it, it'd be easy if it was at like #28 but since they always play the Top 10 in full they'll need some sort of explanation

I agree with you; but the line will probably be that as the song is anti conservative (and rightly so) that if they play it then it would be bias towards Labour etc.
June 2, 20179 yr I read somewhere that the song has been supposedly opening peoples eyes to what a scornful old bint Teresa May is - well not particularly worded like that but you get my idea :magic: I think the song, the lies and reluctance to actually show a spine and debate yet still spin the same tired shallow slogans with no depth day after day has also helped show what an incompetent mess she is. (that'll be my last post on politics :D) on with the chart
June 2, 20179 yr I agree with you; but the line will probably be that as the song is anti conservative (and rightly so) that if they play it then it would be bias towards Labour etc. Yeah I suppose you & Dan are right. But as Pete said, it'll be interesting to see just how Greg describes it... I'm actually rather looking forward to it :lol: Been a while since we had one of these types of songs so high in the charts and I quite like the buzz and discussion around it.
June 2, 20179 yr I do hope this thread isn't going to be a political debate today - I come on here to escape such things :lol:
June 2, 20179 yr I do hope this thread isn't going to be a political debate today - I come on here to escape such things :lol: I'm keeping my political mouth shut now :D
June 2, 20179 yr I do hope this thread isn't going to be a political debate today - I come on here to escape such things :lol: Yeah let's not let the thread descend into politics, as Dan said we do have a forum for this kinda chat!
June 2, 20179 yr Yeah back to the chart - I wonder if Hailee will scrape top 40? It'll feel like a very underwhelming top 40 hit for her if so, definitely slipped under the radar for me so far!
June 2, 20179 yr Surprised with how unsuccessful the Hailee song has been so far. I wouldn'tve thought 'I want to be like most girls' was a radical statement in 2017, but I've seen reaction vids on youtube just not getting it :/
June 2, 20179 yr I think it's because the song doesn't really stand out from the numerous other tropical pop songs in the chart and the songwriting is average. (and with that I leave the thread, I work on Friday evenings now)

His debut studio album I Created Disco was released in June 2007, and was the precursor to his UK top 10 singles "Acceptable in the 80s" and "The Girls". In 2009, Harris released his second studio album Ready for the Weekend, which debuted at number one on the UK Albums Chart and was later certified gold by the British Phonographic Industry within two months of its release. Its lead single "I'm Not Alone" became his first number-one single on the UK Singles Chart. Harris rose to international prominence with the release of his third studio album 18 Months in October 2012. Topping the UK charts, the album became his first to chart on the US Billboard 200 chart (where it reached number 19). All eight of the album's singles, which were "Bounce", "Feel So Close", "Let's Go", "We'll Be Coming Back", "Sweet Nothing", "Drinking from the Bottle", "I Need Your Love" and "Thinking About You" reached the top 10 in the UK. Harris released his fourth studio album Motion in November 2014. It debuted at number two in the UK and at number five in the US, and became Harris's second consecutive number one album on the US Dance/Electronic Albums chart. The album's first three singles "Under Control", "Summer" and "Blame" all topped the UK chart. Harris has collaborated with numerous other recording artists. His collaboration with Rihanna "We Found Love" became an international success, giving Harris his first US number one single on the US Billboard Hot 100 chart. Harris later collaborated with Rihanna on the singles "Where Have You Been" (2012) and "This Is What You Came For" (2016). Harris currently holds the record for the most top 10 songs from one studio album on the UK Singles Chart with nine top 10 entries, surpassing Michael Jackson. In October 2014, he became the first artist to place three songs simultaneously on the top 10 of Billboard's Dance/Electronic Songs chart. He also became the first British solo artist to reach more than one billion streams on Spotify. Harris has received ten Brit Award nominations—three for Best British Male, and four Grammy nominations, winning a Grammy for Best Music Video in 2013. He received the British Academy's Ivor Novello Award for Songwriter of the Year in 2013 and at the 2015 Billboard Music Awards was named Top Dance/Electronic Artist. Additionally, Harris topped Forbes' list of the world's highest-paid DJs for three consecutive years from 2013 to 2015. One of the most successful musicians in contemporary British popular culture, Harris appeared on Debrett's 2017 list of the most influential people in Britain.
