Following several singles released throughout the second half of the 2010s, he hit big in 2019 with a cover of Monsta Boy's "Sorry." Corry grew up during the height of the U.K. garage explosion, and started to DJ when he was 13. Professionally active as the owner of a personal training business as well as a gym and leisure wear company, he first caught the public's eye when he starred in the reality show Geordie Shore. Corry released his first two dance singles, "Back Again" and "Light It Up," in 2015. He began hosting a specialty show on KISS FM in 2017, and holds down summer residencies in Ibiza, Zante, Ayia Napa, and several other clubbing hot spots. In 2019, he released a cover of Monsta Boy's 2000 U.K. garage hit "Sorry (I Didn't Know)," retitled "Sorry" and featuring vocalist Hayley May. After being featured on the British reality TV series Love Island, the song reached the Top Ten in the United Kingdom, Scotland, and Ireland. Two more singles, "Lonely" and "Head & Heart," arrived in 2020 and reached the Top Five of the U.K. singles chart. - Apple Music Top 100 Chart History Joel Corry 2019 06 Sorry -NAS- 2020 04 Lonely -NAS- 2020 01 Head & Heart (feat.

January 29, 20215 yr Not listened to the chart show for a bit, as I can't bear all the rap and hip-hop. But the top 40 is looking more poppy/dancey than it has for a while. Liking the new production on the show too. And Scott is still great.
January 29, 20215 yr Head & Heart hasn't aged for me, such a bop :cheer: And it seems like Scott has finally dropped that crap about it being a Lockdown 1 song :lol:

Writing and recording with her brother—and producer—Finneas O’Connell at their parents’ house, Eilish released dont smile at me in 2017, followed by an ever-evolving series of singles—a prime example of the fact that, in the streaming era, artists are now free to move directly from their bedrooms into the spotlight. Despite the attention, Eilish is doing her best to stake out a space of freedom and fluidity, expanding her range of collaborators (Vince Staples, Khalid) and dodging easy definition. “If people think I have a sound, if people are like, ‘Oh yeah, her sound is this,’ if someone asks you what my sound is and you have an answer for them—you’re wrong,” she told Beats 1’s Zane Lowe. “Instead of trying to find a sound, when I want to make something and when I have an idea of what I want to make, I’m just going to make that.” - Apple Music Top 100 Chart History 2018 47 lovely (Billie Eilish & Khalid) -3- 2018 21 when the party's over -2*- 2018 72 ocean eyes -1- 2018 47 come out and play -NAS- 2019 78 idontwannabeyouanymore -AT- 2019 79 bellyache -2- 2019 06 bury a friend -3*- 2019 13 wish you were gay -IG- 2019 02 bad guy -4*- MILLIONAIRE 2019 60 you should see me in a crown -1*- 2019 77 all the good girls go to hell -5*- 2019 03 everything i wanted -1- 2020 01 No Time To Die -OST- 2020 07 my future -2- 2020 02 Therefore I Am -3- 2021 35 Lo Vas A Olvidar (Billie Eilish & ROSALÍA) -OST- 1 x #1 | 4 x Top 5 | 6 x Top 10 | 7 x Top 20 | 9 x Top 40 | 16 x Top 100 Social Media Billie Eilish http://i.imgur.com/1SERq1f.png --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 24 | 21 | 13th week James Arthur Train Wreck Album track from Back from the Edge Released: 28th October 2016 Label: Sony Music Entertainment Germany Chart Statistics NE (29/10/2020) | 69-24-23-19-16-16-25-35-39-x RE (14/01/2021) | 18-17-21-24 Sales: 300k+ Certification: Silver Status: Standard Chart Ratio 43 Sales 21 Audio Streaming 11 Video Streaming Video 5Su86fIJYaY Biography The heavily tatted, broad-shouldered young man brooding on the cover of James Arthur’s first two albums might look more like a bruiser than a crooner, but that combination of grit and sensitivity defines this British pop phenomenon’s soulful singing style. Before he conquered the UK, Arthur—who was born in Middlesbrough in 1988—sang for a series of rock bands from his mid teens into his early 20s, and in 2011 he began operating under his own name, blending pop, soul and hip-hop influences and releasing songs on YouTube and SoundCloud. Arthur’s life was forever altered the following year when he competed on Season 9 of The X Factor, winning with the Shontelle song “Impossible”. Shortly after, Simon Cowell’s Syco label released the single, which became a record-breaking blockbuster and transformed Arthur—24 at the time—into an instant pop star. Both Arthur’s second single, “You’re Nobody ’Til Somebody Loves You”, and his self-titled debut album blasted off to huge success, and it became obvious Arthur was sticking around. His 2013 follow-up, Back from the Edge, became an even bigger success than its predecessor. Arthur continues to expand his sound, evidenced on his third album, 2019’s You, which features visits from American hip-hop artist Ty Dolla $ign and members of Taking Back Sunday and Blink-182. - Apple Music Top 100 Chart History 2012 01 Impossible -1- MILLION SELLER 2013 02 You're Nobody 'Til Somebody Loves You -2- 2013 97 Wrecking Ball (Alonzo Holt feat.

January 29, 20215 yr 23 | 23 | 61st week The Weeknd Blinding Lights 2nd single from After Hours Released: 30th November 2019 Label: The Weeknd XO Chart Statistics NE (12/12/2019) | 12-17-20-41-11-10-8-4-2-1-1-2-1-1-1-2-2-1-1-1-2-2-5-7-7-9-11-10-13-14-12-16-16-16-22-20-21-26-33-29-21-26-26-25-31-33-32-31-36-38-39-36-46-39-50-66-44-13-18-23-23 Sales: 2,300k+ Certification: 3x Platinum Status: Accelerated Chart Ratio 01 Sales 01 Audio Streaming 04 Video Streaming Video 4NRXx6U8ABQ Biography Nobody makes feeling bad sound as good as The Weeknd. Even the singer’s sunniest tracks (“Can’t Feel My Face,” “Starboy”) feel anchored by darkness—the sense that pleasure is pain and beauty decays and you can’t have the night without the morning after. The brainchild of Toronto singer Abel Tesfaye, the project took off in 2011 with a string of mixtapes (later collected as 2012’s Trilogy) that forged cavernous, falsetto-driven R&B with narratives drenched in drugs, sex, and other regrettable decisions—a sound both sensuous and detached, featherlight and dead heavy. One of the earliest musicians to find his footing on the internet, Tesfaye originally offered his music through YouTube and free downloads, a move that felt radical then but is common now. Ethiopian by heritage (his parents immigrated to Canada in the late ’80s, just before he was born), Tesfaye—out from behind the mask of making art online—has since come to represent the changing face of Toronto, rooting himself not just in an international musical community but in a specific diasporic experience. Like the work of collaborator Lana Del Rey or early booster (and fellow Toronto native) Drake, Tesfaye’s music has become a symbol of hedonism pushed to bleak excess, with a series of albums—including 2015’s Grammy-winning Beauty Behind the Madness, 2016’s multiplatinum Starboy, and 2020’s dense and atmospheric After Hours—whose narrators can’t seem to say no even if they hate themselves for it later. And though his music has gotten a little brighter over time, the prevailing mood remains heavy, even unsettling—the ride you want more of even when you’ve had too much. Speaking to Apple Music about the persona behind his songs, Tesfaye said, “I’m a chill person. That guy is who I am, but it is who I am to myself and in my writing. Sometimes you take him and then you create more, and then it becomes this beast. You add more to him, and then it’s uncontrollable—its own character. It’s like Scarface, the villain: It’s horrible, but you can’t stop looking at it.” - Apple Music Top 100 Chart History 2012 37 Crew Love (Drake feat.
