I saw on twitter that apparently they were supposed to perform the single on the show tonight! What a shame, hopefully this one shows some longevity and sticks around for a while though.

I am LOVING how much this is holding up on iTunes. It's down to 8, but there are FOUR charity tracks above it, so they'll be doing next to nothing in streams.
It's showing at 10 here but it's holding up very well. I've actually noticed that today it barely got red updates. Radio 1's C List seems to have made much more of a difference than Capital's heavy rotation for some reason.

i don't get why the girls can't shoot a video for this in their homes - they could get editing + lighting help, i'm sure.

 

i'm sure they all have new iphones - didn't selena + gaga shoot their music videos purely on their iphone?

True. They could definitely do something like that to tide us over until they're able to shoot for the video (but it might even be too late by then!)

:wub:

Apparently they've had a top 10 single every year since 2011?

 

I can't think of any/many U.K. female pop acts that manage that?

 

I can’t think of anyone who’s done that in the same time period.

 

I don’t even think Ed or Drake have done that have they? (Not females but still that’s a really impressive top ten streak for them!

I've had a check and this is what I found for female artists with the longest string of Top 10s across different years:

 

15 years: Madonna (1989-2003)

13 years: Rihanna (2005-2017)*

10 years: Little Mix (2011-present)

9 years: Mariah Carey (1992-2000)

9 years: Sugababes (2002-2010)

 

*Was still in the Top 10 with 'The Monster' in 2014

 

So in terms of UK female acts only, Little Mix were previously tied with Sugababes!

 

EDIT: Had a look to see who had the best string of Top 10s across different years overall and was surprised not to see an improvement on 15 years:

 

15 years: Madonna (1989-2003)

13 years: Cliff Richard (1958-1970)

13 years: Rihanna (2005-2017)*

12 years: Westlife (1999-2010)

11 years: Robbie Williams (1996-2006)

10 years: Little Mix (2011-present)

9 years: Mariah Carey (1992-2000)

9 years: Sugababes (2002-2010)

9 years: Calvin Harris (2011-2019)

 

I thought Elvis Presley or Cliff Richard could have beaten that, yet they don't even appear on my list!

This is holding up well on itunes and apple music, it really needs to rise on spotify!

Great list, Elvis definitely had spell of 9 years with top 10 hits (if not more).

Just had a double check and he did, don't know how I messed that up (I did do this at half 3 in the morning, in my defense! :lol: )

 

Elvis Presley: 11 years (1956-1966)

9 years (1969-1977)

Anyway, I think it's most impressive that Little Mix have managed to achieve Top 10s across 10 different years. It's not like the physical era where it was easier to push a song into the Top 10 and it's not like the girls have been almost omnipresent in the way Elvis and Madonna were.
Fell one place again on Spotify, but with four new entries above it. Maybe a sign of things turning around with the help of Radio 1?

That's good going! Praying it can climb a little. Im hoping the nice weather will benefit them as people are relaxing in the garden etc.. but then again when its nice weather people tend to stick to the tracks they know so 🤷‍♂️

It's great for them to do that and I hope they can stretch that to at least 15 years.

Yes that’s actually really good. They’ve had more streams today than yesterday too.
