Neon Blue is up to 73, which isn't bad for a remix of an album track.
That is a great jump for Neon Blue by Steps as it was at number 425. If only they had promotion lined up it may have had a slight chance of a low top 100 entry.

Spotify exists.

I've heard Havana and sounds like a Rihanna song, Crying in the club was a rip off of Genie in a bottle - so does OMG rip off a successful female artist too?

It's the next single, so not just an album track.

OMG sounds very much like urban Rihanna. She may as well imitate from the best though.

 

So the third set of songs to be released should be Britney inspired 😂

Havana sounds more like Selena Gomez to me, but yes, seeing very little individuality from her as an artist. Just an average imitation of what other artists are doing and often doing better.

I get the lack of artistic identity comments for Crying in the Club and OMG, but I'm not sure I can imagine anyone else other than Camila singing Havana. The song obviously takes musical influences from her Cuban roots and her hometown of Havana, and it uses some instrumentation towards the end of the song that reminds me of ska-type music, a genre that originated in the Caribbean. I'm not going to pretend to know anything about ska/reggae/2 tone music but it feels like they do influence this song to me.

 

Even just the lyrics make it only a song Camila could do, but I can't say I've heard a song using the instrumentation Havana does for a long long time and that's because the majority of other artists don't have Caribbean roots, I can only think of Rihanna.

 

On the topic of the two singles, Havana has definitely had the better reaction - it was ahead in all major territories last night. Only now OMG is in Hot Songs is it beginning to reverse and that's a shame. At least they've seen sense and are pushing Havana on Spotify, but OMG is higher on the majority of other NMF playlists around Europe.

Interesting that Rain has stalled now, despite getting the added 59p promo as I thought it'd rocket into the top 3. It seems that the fact it has lost exposure from being on the first column of Hot Songs has negated any added effect, something that Enrique has completely made the most of now he's there instead.

Steps did THAT.

 

:wub: Hope they release the

of it soon!
We could end up with Sorry Not Sorry fighting Instruction for that top 10 place that will become available with Little Mix starting to fade away! Although knowing our luck, Sorry Not Sorry will peak at #11 and Instruction at #12.
Steps did THAT.

The Steps - Neon Blue (Adam Blue Radio Edit) is good! :dance:

 

Its about time progressive house came back to the itunes chart!

 

142. Jaded - In The Morning .

 

I assume this is back because of being played on Radio 1 Greg James Dance Anthems apparently. Needs to be added to the daytime playlist soon, hoping it can be a bit like Icarus - King Kong in being added at a late stage to the R1 playlist.
