Biography

 

Dozens of British artists share Adele’s origins—BRIT School, MySpace, pop stardom—but it takes rare talent to have your voice declared timeless in your career’s first flush. Adele honed hers as a kid in her North London bedroom, imitating Etta James every night for an hour. But as soon as she made her televised debut in 2007 (on Later...With Jools Holland), all potential comparisons evaporated: This girl with the whopping hoop earrings and a pub landlady’s brashness had something unique. Heartbreak, indignation, and regret all found a natural home in her regal mezzo-soprano, the instrument that powered her 2008 debut album, 19, and took influence from the American South on 2011’s 21. Both of these albums broke records for breaking records, and made a subsequent operation on Adele’s vocal cords a matter of global import. She recovered immaculately—for proof, watch her comeback performance of “Rolling in the Deep” at the 2012 Grammys—and it took just one word to reintroduce her in 2015. “Hello,” she sang during an X Factor ad break, unveiling her world-conquering single and third album, 25, in the process. Like its predecessors, 25 upended 21st-century metrics and made Adele the first artist to earn the top-selling album of a calendar year three times. She’s now a mother, and her twenties are behind her. But if any voice were ever capable of carrying its owner into maturity, it’s hers. - Apple Music

'14 - ABC' Scott said!

 

Made me think very briefly I was listening to an 80s chart on Mixcloud!

Edited by 30 Spells Snakey

Those Annie Lennox 90s era-esque pluck synths in Shivers!

 

Also an appropriate song fro the UK today as we are in a bit of a cold snap!

 

Indeed :heart:

Biography

 

In a short period of time German producer Jonasu’s joyful blend of house beats and an ear for catchy melodies have established him as one of pop’s rising stars. His songs, streamed millions of times, are international hits but much of his work is born from the streets of Amsterdam. Jonasu has called the Dutch capital home for over a decade after moving from his German hometown Mannheim to study music at the prestigious Conservatorium van Amsterdam. Jonasu cites the city as an influence on his sound for more than just his musical education. His music is inspired by the people and stories, both real and imagined, that he comes across on his daily bike roads across the city. “Everyone in Amsterdam cycles,” he says, explaining his unique creative process. “It’s a big influence on my life. In 20 minutes I can come up with a new melody or lyrical concept. Often I’ll arrive in the studio and have ideas ready to go.” In addition to making his own music, Jonasu has written with, and produced for, other artists including Sam Feldt's multi-platinum selling single Post Malone (feat. RANI) and Alok & Dynoro's smash single On & On. He’s spent time recording in London, Stockholm, Berlin and L.A. - Spotify

Biography

 

With her highly resonant voice and R&B-influenced style, Becky Hill first came to the public's attention competing on series one of The Voice UK. Ultimately reaching the show's semifinal round, Hill emerged a fan favorite and became the first Voice UK contestant to score a number one single when "Gecko (Overdrive)," her collaboration with Dutch EDM star Oliver Heldens, topped the U.K. singles chart in June 2014.

 

Born on February 14, 1994 in Bewdley, Worcestershire, England, Hill was no stranger to music when she first auditioned for the then new The Voice UK in 2012. As a teenager, she had sung with the acoustic rock & soul group Shaking Trees, which created some local buzz and received several plays on BBC Radio. On The Voice UK she made it to the semifinal with her powerful renditions of R&B songs by the likes of John Legend and others, before being eliminated. By her own admission, she was a novice in the music industry game and it took her 18 months to finally get a record deal. In the meantime, however, her sultry, soulful, older-than-her-years voice was highly sought-after by dance artists looking for feature vocalists. Her first recorded appearance, on British drum'n'bass artist Wilkinson's single "Afterglow," went to number eight on the U.K. singles chart. She then appeared on Rudimental's single "Powerless," singing with them at several U.K. festivals in 2013, including Glastonbury.

 

Following her success with Heldens, Hill worked extensively with London-based dance producer MNEK and issued her debut solo single, "Caution to the Wind." It showcased a shift toward a more electronica-influenced sound, with twinkling melodies and production reminiscent of Four Tet. The Eko EP appeared in 2017, and included the single "Unpredictable." The single "Sunrise in the East" followed a year later. In 2019, Hill issued a pair of upbeat singles, "I Could Get Used to This," which featured Weiss, and "Wish You Well," which featured Sigala. - Apple Music

That new Jonasu track is good, I think its unlikely it will be a hit but we'll see.
Next week, Bad Habits is set to become Ed Sheeran’s longest running song in the top 10 ever.

Absolutely fantastic that D-Block Europe have got that elusive Top 10 hit. Hip hop isn't dead.

 

Mariah the so-called 'Saviour of All Christmas' back in the charts with the music video which has had that creepy kid with the dark hair dancing around her with a group of children wearing a Xmas hat and a beard who looks like a thug. Popular thanks to a ten year old singing it on Love Actually.

 

 

What are the longest running female #1’s in the UK? EOM must be getting up there.

 

Longest for any female act is unfortunately Dance Monkey with 11 weeks.

 

For a UK female soloist I think it might be Bleeding Love's 7 weeks actually but not 100% on that one.

Not that it made #2 when it was first released before Love Actually had even been thought of or anything... :lol:

I don't count Dance Monkey, the record is 'Umbrella' in my view.

 

I'm hoping RiRi's long awaited comeback single will be a 12 weeker and reclaim the record for her!

Sam Fender would have two songs in the top 40 if it weren’t for the Xmas songs
