Why is Calvin under a different name? Is he trying to make it more difficult to have a chart hit/chart longevity!?

Interesting to see The Weeknd at 59p now with such a big lead already, although I guess with the new video out it makes sense to push for a high official chart position this week!

After last week what a boring week! Disappointed with Calvin release especially after his last era.

James Blunt up to 2!

I don't think he's that bothered about having chart hits anymore

196. Four Tet & Ellie Goulding - Baby

What a dead week, though I'm liking the Joel Corry song.

James Blunt up to 2!

But how and why?

I think he was talking about it on BBC Breakfast this morning

Bloody good that James Blunt one. The video made me cry so I'm not surprised it's having an impact. Hope it can go on to become a genuine hit.

I really want it to, it's so heartbreakingly moving. I certainly related to it, as someone who has experienced a parental bereavement.

guess it's too much to ask for R1 to playlist it, they shouldn't care about artist age or how long they've been around , justo if the song is good

This sort of thing always makes me think of an interview Pink did, where she said her management took her into a room and said they’d have to redefine how they market her, as she was now over 30 and mainstream radio wouldn’t touch her. She then released What About Us....

 

It is such a shame that radio will not play stuff like this

I don't think R1 even playlisted Bonfire Heart back in 2013 and that was a fairly big hit, so I really doubt they will for this one.
