Aitch will finish the week at number two when the streams catch up to date I think. could be a serious number one contender next week with the EP too.

This is gonna be by far the worst #1 of the year when it inevitably makes it the week after next :')

Oh NO! Aitch's song is a good rap song.

Take Me Back to London is the worst #1 of the year imo.

Biography

 

Kygo

Kygo turned the dance-music world on its ear in the simplest way possible: by slowing down. The Norwegian producer (born Kyrre Gørvell-Dahll in 1991) cut his teeth crafting bootleg remixes of songs like Lana Del Rey’s “Born to Die” and James Blake’s “The Wilhelm Scream”, fleshing out the originals with contrasting touches: EDM drops inspired by his fondness for Avicii and ruminative melodies reflective of his childhood piano studies. In 2013, layering an a cappella of Marvin Gaye’s “Sexual Healing” over dancing marimbas and a teasingly measured 4/4 beat, he hit upon his slow-motion signature. The following year, he was called up to replace an ailing Avicii on Tomorrowland’s main stage, and his relaxed, sunny vibe stopped EDM’s harder-faster-louder ethos in its tracks. Kygo’s dreamy, pioneering tropical house—encapsulated in singles like the lilting “Firestone” and his even-more-weightless remix of a-ha’s “Take On Me”—cast its influence across the pop music landscape, reaching as far as Skrillex, Diplo and Justin Bieber’s smash, “Where Are Ü Now”, and securing Kygo collabs with Selena Gomez, Ellie Goulding, Miguel and Imagine Dragons. - iTunes

 

Whitney Houston

Whitney Elizabeth Houston (August 9, 1963 – February 11, 2012) was an American singer and actress. She was cited as the most awarded female artist of all time by Guinness World Records and remains one of the best-selling music artists of all time with 200 million records sold worldwide. She released seven studio albums and two soundtrack albums, all of which have been certified diamond, multi-platinum, platinum, or gold by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA). Houston's crossover appeal on the popular music charts—as well as her prominence on MTV, starting with her video for "How Will I Know"—influenced several African-American women artists who followed in her footsteps.

 

Houston began singing in church as a child and became a background vocalist while in high school. With the guidance of Arista Records chairman Clive Davis, she signed to the label at the age of 19. Her first two studio albums, Whitney Houston (1985) and Whitney (1987), both reached number one on the Billboard 200 in the United States and became two of the world's best-selling albums of all time. She became the only artist to have seven consecutive number-one singles on the Billboard Hot 100 chart, from "Saving All My Love for You" in 1985 to "Where Do Broken Hearts Go" in 1988.

 

Houston made her screen acting debut in the romantic thriller film The Bodyguard (1992). She recorded seven songs for the film's soundtrack, including "I Will Always Love You", which received the Grammy Award for Record of the Year and became the best-selling single by a woman in music history. The soundtrack album received the Grammy Award for Album of the Year and remains the world's best-selling soundtrack album of all time. Houston made other high-profile film appearances, including Waiting to Exhale (1995) and The Preacher's Wife (1996). The theme song "Exhale (Shoop Shoop)" became her eleventh and final number-one single on the Hot 100 chart, while The Preacher Wife's soundtrack became the best-selling gospel album in history.

 

Following the critical and commercial success of My Love Is Your Love (1998), Houston signed a $100 million contract with Arista Records. However, her personal struggles began overshadowing her career, and the album Just Whitney (2002) received mixed reviews. Her drug use and tumultuous marriage to Bobby Brown were widely publicized in media. After a six-year break from recording, Houston returned to the top of the Billboard 200 chart with her final studio album, I Look to You (2009).

 

On February 11, 2012, Houston was found dead in the Beverly Hilton, Beverly Hills, California. The coroner's report showed that she had accidentally drowned in the bathtub, with heart disease and cocaine use as contributing factors. News of her death coincided with the 2012 Grammy Awards, at which she was originally scheduled to perform, and featured prominently in international media. - Wikipedia

Biography

 

Edward Christopher Sheeran, MBE (/ˈʃɪərən/; born 17 February 1991) is an English singer-songwriter, guitarist, record producer, and actor. He attended the Academy of Contemporary Music in Guildford as an undergraduate from the age of 18 in 2009. In early 2011, Sheeran independently released the extended play, No. 5 Collaborations Project. After signing with Asylum Records, his debut album, + (pronounced "plus"), was released in September 2011. It topped the UK and Australian charts, reached number five in the US, and has since been certified seven-times platinum in the UK. The album contains the single "The A Team", which earned him the Ivor Novello Award for Best Song Musically and Lyrically. In 2012, Sheeran won the Brit Awards for Best British Male Solo Artist and British Breakthrough Act. "The A Team" was nominated for Song of the Year at the 2013 Grammy Awards, where he performed the song with Elton John.

 

His second studio album, x (pronounced "multiply"), was released in June 2014. It peaked at number one in the UK and the US, and was named the second-best-selling album worldwide of 2015. In 2015, x won the Brit Award for Album of the Year, and he received the Ivor Novello Award for Songwriter of the Year from the British Academy of Songwriters, Composers and Authors. His single from x, "Thinking Out Loud", earned him two Grammy Awards at the 2016 ceremony: Song of the Year and Best Pop Solo Performance.

 

Sheeran's third album, ÷ (pronounced "divide"), was released in March 2017. The album debuted at number one in the UK, the US and other major markets, and was the best-selling album worldwide of 2017. The first two singles from the album, "Shape of You" and "Castle on the Hill", were released in January 2017 and broke records in a number of countries, including the UK, Australia and Germany, by debuting in the top two positions of the charts. He also became the first artist to have two songs debut in the US top 10 in the same week. By March 2017, Sheeran had accumulated ten top 10 singles from ÷ on the UK Singles Chart, breaking the record for most top 10 UK singles from one album. His fourth single from ÷, "Perfect", reached number one in the US, Australia and the UK, where it became the Christmas number one in 2017.

 

Sheeran has sold more than 150 million records worldwide, making him one of the world's best-selling music artists. Two of his albums are in the list of the best-selling albums in UK chart history: x at number 20, and ÷ at number 34. Beginning in March 2017, his ÷ Tour is the highest-grossing of all time by a solo artist. An alumnus of the National Youth Theatre in London, as an actor Sheeran has portrayed a recurring role on The bast*rd Executioner, and in 2019, he appeared in the Richard Curtis/Danny Boyle film Yesterday. - Wikipedia

This is gonna be by far the worst #1 of the year when it inevitably makes it the week after next :')

Nope. The worst #1 of the year dropped to #11 on Friday :kink:

As much as I enjoy Take Me Back To London, I just want Kygo to nab a week at the top!

Sorry is ok, but I hate when DJ's don't credit vocals. Joel Corry featuring Hayley May, it's not that hard

 

 

I see your point.

Some artists like Rita Ora and Sam Smith started to get a boost in their music careers from providing vocals for tracks made by producers of electronic music, and were credited in the ones by respective artists DJ Fresh and Disclosure.

Edit: A fun fact! Bjork's first song as a solo artist may have been Human Behaviour, but her first attempt at solo material was as a featured artist in a 1992 song made by 808 State called "Oops!".

Edited September 1, 20197 yr by Polly Planturret

Kygo & Whitney still robbed :cry:

Oh NO! Aitch's song is a good rap song.

Take Me Back to London is the worst #1 of the year imo.

I don't mind TMBTL! Taste is one of the worst chart hits of the year for me oops, so bad

I think you mean BEST x

Move Like Jagger Part 2

 

I think its streams are going to keep hindering it - only 7 currently on Spotify

Taste is one of the worst chart hits of the year for me oops, so bad

I think you mean Señorita is.

I think you mean Señorita is.

Don't come for one of the top 10 best songs of the year *.*

Really hope Ed genuinely gives us a good long break. I can't take it anymore!!

At least these Ed songs are slightly more interesting than bland, boring songs like Perfect and Thinking Out Loud etc, so as a whole I haven't minded this era as much as the previous one

 

Shame Cross Me only peaked at 4 though; bar far his best song for years

Edited September 1, 20197 yr by ElectroBoy

Honestly I never thought Higher Love would get this close to #1 so I'm pretty overjoyed that it's doing so well, just wish it could climb one more place!

 

If Sorry holds on we'll have two covers in the top 5, when's the last time that happened?

At least these Ed songs are slightly more interesting than bland, boring songs like Perfect and Thinking Out Loud etc, so as a whole I haven't minded this era as much as the previous one

 

Shame Cross Me only peaked at 4 though; bar far his best song for years

I'd personally say Beautiful People is way more bland than those two (especially Thinking Out Loud which is a stunning track!)

This is just the ‘remix’ and not the Sir Spyro version right? Odd to have 2 versions of a remix :lol:

I'd personally say Beautiful People is way more bland than those two (especially Thinking Out Loud which is a stunning track!)

 

I'll agree on that actually :lol:

The other 2 previous #1s this year are much worst than this one, IDC and Beautiful People are both a 0/10... Take me is maybe a 3/10 :D
