I still can 't believe no one thought of releasing a new 2021 version of Three Lions

Looking at iTunes, it's clear everyone owns the original cos it's not getting crazy sales anymore, mostly 200 copies a day this past week and even yesterday with the semis just maybe 1K, which is nothing... sure a 2021 version with new people and new lyrics would get higher downloads...

Not sure how the OCC would treat a new version, if still would half the streams? probably yes...

They can just keep changing the lyrics! :lol:

 

That'll surely only work if the next manager's surname has two syllables. :lol:

(and if they're any good!)

That Atomic Kitten track will do like Sven Sven Sven

The Atomic Kitten song has been added to Hot Hits and pretty high up.

 

OMG Atomic Kitten in the top 10 of HHUK in 2021

3 Lions now #1 AND #2 on Amazon *.*

Vindaloo #3, World In Motion #6

Atomic Kitten now #28

 

As Amazon usually report on time, I think all these streams will be counted for tomorrow.

I thought this was a troll!!

 

Proof that Payola happens as three lions ain’t here

OMG Atomic Kitten in the top 10 of HHUK in 2021

Incredible! :lol:

oh my how come did AK get added to HH as track #10!!!! and on a Thursday, that never happens!

They tried making a new version of 'Three Lions' in 2010 and very few people cared - even that year, well predating streaming, the original song peaked higher (getting to #10 while the 2010 version peaked at #21). I don't think there'd be much chance of another new version of it getting anywhere on streaming for much the same reason as the new version of 'Yes Sir, I Can Boogie' did not supplant the original.

If England win, a winner's version of Three Lions (possibly for relevant charity) could be massive if rush released, especially on sales.

OK, hands up - who had this on their 2021 bingo card?

Three Lions has broken Spotify confirmed

Lol, hopefully it updates soon, really interested to where 3 lions is, I don’t think it will be above Ed but I think it could be close…

Atomic Kitten are at #17 on Spotify! :cheeseblock:

Just as I say that it’s updated and 3 lions is number 1 ahead of Ed 😂

3 Lions over 1 million combined (1,028K)

'Sweet Caroline' #29 - was curious about that one as the players were singing it along with the crowd at the end, it actually got played on Radio 1 earlier

 

Atomic Kitten top 20 is quite wild to see :cheeseblock:

That is a higher total than it ever managed in 2018 (it had 754k / 924k combined on the day of the semi-final) - wonder if we could see the top version hitting 1 million on Sunday? It does look like it will have a tough time reaching the official #1 again though, Ed is doing higher numbers than the song it beat to #1 last time and of course its downloads are nowhere near as high as they were then. Should definitely be at least a top 3 contender though (if it's not already this week).

 

'Vindaloo' and 'World In Motion' also both in the top 10 for the first time at #6 and #10 respectively, plus 'Sweet Caroline' is in at #29 and the new song from Krept & Konan et al. has climbed to a new peak of #50.

 

Also:

60 The White Stripes - Seven Nation Army

75 Gala - Freed From Desire

90 Ant & Dec - We're On The Ball

101 4-4-2 - Come On England

111 Shakira - Waka Waka (This Time For Africa) (feat. Freshlyground)

118 Atomic Kitten - Whole Again ( :lol: )

156 The Fratellis - Chelsea Dagger

 

There are a few other older songs re-entering the top 200 as well but not sure if they have any relation to the football at all (The Verve 'Bitter Sweet Symphony' at #138, Fatboy Slim 'Right Here, Right Now' at #154, The Jam 'Town Called Malice' at #170). Surprised to see Earth, Wind & Fire's 'September' not in the top 200!
