May 1, 20187 yr I love 'Blackout', but I must admit I haven't heard it for a long time and forgot it went Top 10. I'd actually describe '6 Words' as forgotten too, which is a shame because it's one of my favourite chart hits of that era.
May 1, 20187 yr I love 'Blackout', but I must admit I haven't heard it for a long time and forgot it went Top 10. I'd actually describe '6 Words' as forgotten too, which is a shame because it's one of my favourite chart hits of that era. I don't really remember 6 Words either, but I must have listened to it. I THINK it was a drum & bass sort of song? I actually talked with Wretch 32 once on a Spotify chat room. It was around 2012 I think, I can't remember much about it, but by coincidence saw him say on Twitter that he was doing an event with Spotify, and I already had Spotify so I thought I'd go. I was surprised because there was only about 10 of us who turned up. I can't remember what it was exactly, but basically we were all in a chat room with him within Spotify and could talk as much as we want. He seemed quite bored to be honest, for example he was typing short replies to everybody, but maybe it's just his personality, I don't know. I can't remember what we talked about, but I was there for the whole hour. I was probably just telling him how much I like each of his songs lol. My favourite of all his songs I think is Off With Their Heads with Devlin. So Epic! p_2gooyT7Zw
May 1, 20187 yr You Ruin Me going top 10 was such a *.* moment though. Veronicas grabbing an unexpected second moment in the sun five years later.
May 1, 20187 yr Also: Breach - Jack Karmin - Brokenhearted Stevie McCrorie - Lost Stars Lemar - The Way Love Goes And a lot of glee singles And also when Baddiel, Skinner and the Lightning Seeds went back in to the top 10 in 2010 (not the fact that it was forgotten because it was a huge hit in the 90s but most people won’t remember it went back in to the top 10.

May 1, 20187 yr It's already been mentioned but I was very surprised when 'Forever Yours' by Alex Day entered the charts at number 4 on Christmas Day 2011 on sales of 52,881. Didn't he used to post here at BuzzJack when the single was released? Had it not been for that I would never have heard about the single. In fact I don't think I've even heard the track and the following week it fell from number 4 to 112. Talk about a one week wonder.
May 1, 20187 yr Author Some more forgotten top 10's from the 2010's: Tinchy Stryder - In My System: One of my favourite songs from Tinchy but one that I think the general public wouldn't remember off the top of their heads now Devlin ft Ed Sheeran - All Along The Watchtower Tinchy Stryder ft Dappy - Spaceship Parra For Cuva ft Anna Naklab - Wicked Games Some top 10's that surprised me (and possibly others): Kent Jones - Don't Mind: I heard this song a few times on the radio but I didn't know what it was called until it had entered the top 10 so it was a bit of a surprise to me. Vato Gonzalez - Badman Riddim Plan B - Ill Manors
May 1, 20187 yr Kent Jones - Don't Mind: I heard this song a few times on the radio but I didn't know what it was called until it had entered the top 10 so it was a bit of a surprise to me. I disagree with this on the basis that I work in a school and hear one of my year 7 Spanish classes sing "hola, cómo estás" most lessons :')
May 1, 20187 yr 'Blackout' and '6 Words' are both incredible songs. Actually all of Wretch's top 10 hits are ('Don't Go' is the weakest one for me - and the only one I can't recall the melody of - and that was the one that got #1 :lol:)
May 1, 20187 yr Watchtower is a great shout - came on shuffle the other day and I struggled to think why it did so well. Must have been the Ed Sheeran feature. iLL Manors was such a surprising Top 10 too, great song which received lots of publicity at the time. Others I'd say: Fuse ODG ft. Angel - T.I.N.A. Wiley ft. Chip & Ms D - Reload John Newman - Cheating Showtek - Booyah (surprise Top 10, I mean listen to it now. :lol:) Tinie Tempah - Children of the Sun Shift K3Y - Touch (qualifies as forgotten and surprising I think, great little song though. Came out of nowhere) Flo Rida ft. Robin Thicke - I Don't Like It, I Love It DJ Fresh ft. Ella Eyre - Gravity
May 1, 20187 yr Calling All Hearts would be my first pick too. Some Jessie J songs maybe? LaserLight, the only reason I remember that is the annoying capitalisation. How about most of Pixie Lott's second era post All About Tonight? I feel like she had maybe two more singles. Wonderman by Tinie and Ellie Goulding would be another one I don't imagine is THAT well-remembered, and some later JLS ones too. I have no idea if those actually were top tens tho
May 2, 20187 yr Forgotten hits I’d say include Parade Louder Leona’s Trouble and Hurt Neon Hitch Ass Back Home Stooshe Love Me Loveable Rogues What A Night Leah McFall I Will Survive One Direction - Gotta Be You Pretty much all of Lawsons tracks and Union J’s which went top ten The Wanteds Walks Like Rihanna and I Found You Charlie Brown On My Way Gabz The One Sub Focus Endorphins Ben Pearce What I Might Do Bars and Melody Hopeful TC Little Nikki Make You Bounce Melissa Steel Kisses for breakfast Iggy Azalea Change Your Life Stevie McCrorie lost stars Louisa Forever Young Edited May 2, 20187 yr by Jordan Lee
May 2, 20187 yr Neon Hitch went top 10!? :o I always thought it was one of those songs that was extremely popular on blogs and foruns etc.. but failed to go top 40!! :o What a banger though :heart: Edit: Wait.. i got it mixed up. The Gym Class Heroes song is the 'Ass Back Home' one lol. Still a banger, but my post was meaning to refer to 'Get Over U' :wub: which did fail to chart despite being popular online etc..
May 2, 20187 yr Cover Drive - Twilight #1I'd say their other top 10s (Lick Ya Down and Sparks) were far more forgotten. Duke Dumont - Won't Look Back Example - Say Nothing Sugababes - Wear My Kiss Delirious - History Makers 3OH!3 - My First Kiss Michael Jackson - Hold My Hand Nicole Scherzinger - Boomerang Loick Essien - How We Roll Far East Movement - Live My Life 50 Cent - My Life The Wanted - We Own The Night Eminem - Guts Over Fear And Jessie J - It's My Party, at least I'm hoping it's been forgotten by now!?
May 2, 20187 yr Completely forgot 'How We Roll' even existed! Sounds painfully dated now, no idea how it got as high as #2. 'My Life' is a shout too, I remember loving that for about two months before rarely playing it ever again.
May 2, 20187 yr I still hear 'Won't Look Back' all the time in clubs and stuff, but maybe in terms of ordinary members of the public who don't go out it's probably forgotten.
May 2, 20187 yr Author DJ Fresh ft Dizzee Rascal - The Power: This was the song that ended DJ Fresh's 100% record of number ones in the UK and it's a song that I haven't heard in years. Alexandra Burke - Elephant: Does Alexandra herself even remember this song? :lol: Dizzee Rascal ft Robbie Williams - Goin Crazy Waze & Odyssey Vs R Kelly - Bump & Grind 2014 Nicole Scherzinger - Boomerang Calvin Harris ft Tinie Tempah - Drinking From The Bottle
