50. 18 MONTHS CALVIN HARRIS (1,019,000)[/b]

very impressive for a dance album, great to see it manage top 50

 

Oh man I didn't think 'Shut Up And Dance' would be this high! :o One of the last big hits before the chart moved to Fridays, I remember its UK release date being on my birthday. Plus it's great to have Ohio representation in the end-of-decade :D

Shut Up And Dance I never liked, it just screams 'forced fun' to me. 'Anna Sun' should have become their big hit instead.

Biography

 

Robyn Rihanna Fenty (/riˈænə/ ree-AN-ə; born February 20, 1988) is a Barbadian singer, songwriter, fashion designer, actress and businesswoman, who has been recognized for embracing various musical styles and reinventing her image throughout her career.

 

Born in Saint Michael and raised in Bridgetown, Barbados, Rihanna moved to the US in 2005, when she signed with Def Jam Recordings. She earned significant recognition following the release of her first two studio albums Music of the Sun (2005) and A Girl like Me (2006), both of which were influenced by Caribbean music and peaked within the top ten of the US Billboard 200 chart. Rihanna's third studio album, Good Girl Gone Bad (2007), incorporated more elements of dance-pop and catapulted her to greater stardom, establishing her status as a sex symbol and a leading figure in the music industry. Its international chart-topping single "Umbrella" earned Rihanna her first Grammy Award, winning Best Rap/Sung Collaboration.

 

Rihanna extended her fusion of pop, dance and R&B on her next four studio albums, Rated R (2009), Loud (2010), Talk That Talk (2011) and the Grammy Award-winning Unapologetic (2012). All four releases incorporated experimentation of various musical styles and consolidated Rihanna's international chart success, Unapologetic being her first number-one album in the US. The records spawned a string of chart-topping singles, including "Rude Boy", "Only Girl (In the World)", "What's My Name?", "S&M", "We Found Love", "Diamonds" and "Stay". Her eighth studio album, Anti (2016), showcased her control over artistic creativity after her departure from Def Jam. It became her second US number-one album and featured the chart-topping single "Work". Besides solo materials, Rihanna has collaborated with recording artists such as Drake, Eminem and Calvin Harris.

 

Having sold over 250 million records, Rihanna is one of the world's best-selling music artists. She has earned 14 number-one singles and 31 top-ten singles in the US, and 30 top-ten entries in the UK. Her accolades include nine Grammy Awards, 13 American Music Awards, 12 Billboard Music Awards, and six Guinness World Records. Forbes ranked her among the top ten highest-paid celebrities in 2012 and 2014, and Time named her as one of the 100 most influential people in the world twice (2012 and 2018). Alongside a successful music career, Rihanna is well known for her involvement in humanitarian causes, entrepreneurial ventures and the fashion industry. She is the founder of nonprofit organization Clara Lionel Foundation, cosmetics brand Fenty Beauty, and fashion house Fenty under LVMH. In 2018, the Government of Barbados appointed her as an ambassador with duties promoting education, tourism and investment. - Wikipedia

Ah, the 2010's equivalent of 'Saturday Night' - even my dad could hear the comparison when it was performed on The X Factor.

 

Good song anyway is 'We Found Love' and rightfully a classic.

Edited January 5, 20206 yr by Snakebite502

We Found Love is an absolute 13/10 tune of life.

Insane that it's not top 40.

Biography

 

A songwriter, composer, and multi-instrumentalist, Gotye (real name Wouter De Backer) earned a global audience in 2011 when his single "Someone I Used to Know" became a major international success. Wouter De Backer was born in Bruges, Belgium on May 21, 1980. The De Backer family left Belgium for Australia when Wouter was two years old, finding a home in Sydney before relocating to the Melbourne suburb of Montmorency. When he began attending school, Wouter started using an Anglicized variation of his name, Walter, and before long he revealed he had a talent for music. Becoming proficient on keyboards and drums, De Backer was a teenager when he formed his first band, Downstares, with three of his high-school friends. Once De Backer graduated from high school, Downstares broke up, and after inheriting a large collection of old LPs while attending the University of Melbourne, he began experimenting with sample-based music.

 

In 2001, De Backer released a limited-edition EP, Out Here in the Cold, which he credited to Gotye; the name was a simple phonetic spelling of Gaultier, the French equivalent of Wouter. The EP earned some airplay on Triple J, a noted Australian radio outlet, and De Backer was encouraged to continue making music as Gotye. Around the same time, De Backer became acquainted with singer and songwriter Kris Schroeder, and together they formed a band called the Basics, who released their first album, Get Back, in 2003. While the Basics quickly attracted an audience, De Backer continued to make music as Gotye, and released his first full-length album, Boardface, within months of the Basics' debut LP.

 

After moving out of his family's home, De Backer found himself moving frequently over the next several years, while also dividing his time between solo work and the Basics. The nomadic lifestyle was reflected in the sound of the second Gotye album, 2006's Like Drawing Blood, which was a critical and commercial success in Australia, voted the best album of the year in a Triple J listeners' poll and earning platinum certification. After establishing a permanent home for his home studio in a barn on his family's property and finding some downtime from the Basics (who released albums in 2007 and 2009), De Backer began the work of creating a third Gotye album, and in 2011 he issued Making Mirrors. The album's first single, "Eyes Wide Open," was a major hit in Australia, but the follow-up, a duet with Kimbra titled "Someone That I Used to Know," became an international smash, with the single topping the charts in the United States, Canada, the U.K., France, Germany, Italy, Belgium, and of course Australia, and winning a Grammy Award for Song of the Year. The success of "Someone I Used to Know" helped Making Mirrors achieve gold or platinum status in 11 countries, and it won the Grammy Award in 2013 for Best Alternative Album.

 

After the success of Making Mirrors, De Backer returned to the Basics for their 2015 album, The Age of Entitlement, and he launched a personal project, the Ondioline Orchestra, in which he paid tribute to pioneering electronic musician Jean-Jacques Perrey, who was a virtuoso of the Ondioline, a keyboard that could emulate the sound of strings, woodwinds, and other instruments. In 2017, De Backer announced he had founded a new record label, Forgotten Futures, whose first release would be an archival collection of rare Jean-Jacques Perrey recordings. - iTunes

Biography

 

Mr. Probz is a Dutch R&B and hip-hop artist with several hits outside his homeland. Born Dennis Princewell Stehr, Probz came to hip-hop via graffiti culture. The combination of the two interests landed him a steady stream of indie singles and collaborative tracks took him to 2010. That year he won the BNN/State Award for Best New Artist, a rare feat for an unsigned artist. He then signed his own label, Left Lane, to Traumashop/Republic and in 2013 released his debut album, The Treatment. That year, he was also featured on a Top 10 Dutch hit "Sukkel Voor de Liefde," by the Opposites. In 2014, Probz had a worldwide hit with "Waves," which reached number one in many countries thanks to a Robin Schulz remix. The success prompted high-profile collaborations with the likes of EDM producers Afrojack and David Guetta, and another hit single, "Nothing Really Matters," was out by the end of the year. Probz' Dutch chart success continued in 2015 with a feature on Armin van Buuren's hit single "Another You" and his own 2016 single, "Fine Ass Mess." Two more solo singles, "Til You're Loved" and "Tears Gone Bad," arrived in 2017 as well as "Gone" with featured rapper Anderson .Paak. He returned in early 2018 with the low-key "Space for Two" and "Praying to a God," the latter of which was a cover version of a track originally done by Norwegian duo Nico & Vinz. - iTunes

Interesting that 'Somebody Like I Used To Know' never re-entered the chart after it left! I haven't gone back to it much at all but it's sounding all right today, such a unique and wonderful smash hit!

and the tunes just keep on coming! 'Waves' is definitely at least in my top 10 of the decade, such a shame it has to settle for #41 here but at least it was an absolutely massive hit.

Somebody I Used To Know is a good song, wasn't much of a fan of it at the time though. It is however very different to anything else in the charts at the time and also has that Radio 1 and Radio 2 crossover appeal.

Edited January 5, 20206 yr by Snakebite502

BUT YOU DIDNT HAVE TO CUT ME OOOFFF

 

a true classic :wub: (pls gotye release more music it's been eight years)

 

and still the highest seller from 2012 I believe? :cheer:

 

Somebody That I Used To Know still pretty good, and great to see Mr. Probz in here, shame it missed out on the top 40 though.

and the tunes just keep on coming! 'Waves' is definitely at least in my top 10 of the decade, such a shame it has to settle for #41 here but at least it was an absolutely massive hit.

 

Waves is the ultimate 10s summer chillout track alongside 'Stereo Love' which sadly probably doesn't make this top 100.

Biography

 

Sia Kate Isobelle Furler (/ˈsiːə/ SEE-ə; born 18 December 1975) is an Australian singer, songwriter, voice actress and music video director. She started her career as a singer in the acid jazz band Crisp in the mid-1990s in Adelaide. In 1997, when Crisp disbanded, she released her debut studio album titled OnlySee in Australia. She moved to London, England, and provided lead vocals for the British duo Zero 7. In 2000, Sia released her second studio album, Healing Is Difficult, on the Columbia label the following year, and her third studio album, Colour the Small One, in 2004, but all of these struggled to connect with a mainstream audience.

 

Sia relocated to New York City in 2005 and toured in the United States. Her fourth and fifth studio albums, Some People Have Real Problems and We Are Born, were released in 2008 and 2010, respectively. Each was certified gold by the Australian Recording Industry Association and attracted wider notice than her earlier albums. Uncomfortable with her growing fame, Sia took a hiatus from performing, during which she focused on songwriting for other artists, producing successful collaborations "Titanium" (with David Guetta), "Diamonds" (with Rihanna) and "Wild Ones" (with Flo Rida).

 

In 2014, Sia finally broke through as a solo recording artist when her sixth studio album, 1000 Forms of Fear, debuted at No 1 in the U.S. Billboard 200 and generated the top-ten single "Chandelier" and a trilogy of music videos starring child dancer Maddie Ziegler. In 2016, she released her seventh studio album This Is Acting, which spawned her first Billboard Hot 100 number one single, "Cheap Thrills". The same year, Sia gave her Nostalgic for the Present Tour, which incorporated dancing by Ziegler and others and other performance art elements. Sia wears a wig that obscures her face to protect her privacy. Among the accolades received by Sia are ARIA Awards and an MTV Video Music Award. Her eighth studio album, first Christmas album, and debut album with Atlantic Records was released in 2017. It was titled Everyday Is Christmas and was preceded by the single "Santa's Coming for Us". The album was reissued in 2018 with three bonus tracks. - Wikipedia

Love Chandelier!!! I remember being so shocked that it refused to leave the top 40 for so long :lol:

well I can't argue with Chandelier being top 40, a truly outstanding pop song this is.

hope we get more from her soon.
