December 3, 20214 yr 25 | 20 | 5th week Joel Corry featuring Mabel I Wish Non-album single Released: 29th October 2021 Label: Perfect Havoc Chart Statistics NE (11/11/2021) | 23-19-20-20-25 Sales: 60k+ Certification: - Status: Standard Chart Ratio 09 Sales 28 Audio Streaming 48 Video Streaming Video Qhadv8gwTdo Biography “Back Again” might seem like a strange title for a debut single, but not for Joel Corry: When the British DJ/producer dropped his first record in 2015, he was already well known to UK audiences from his appearances on the MTV reality show Geordie Shore. While that program captured its cast members’ romantic misadventures with tongue firmly in cheek, Corry has treated his musical career with far more seriousness, faithfully updating the sounds of classic house with a sleek contemporary touch. Born in London in 1989, Corry was just a boy when the slinky sounds of UK garage catapulted underground dance music into British pop around the turn of the millennium, but he brings the same crossover spirit to his own productions. While 2015’s “Back Again” and “Light It Up” flirted with big-room EDM, Corry looked to the past for his breakout hit, a 2019 cover of Monsta Boy’s 2000 UK garage classic “Sorry” that paired soulful vocals with crisp, jittery drum programming. He’s pursued a similar approach on subsequent singles like “Lonely” and “Head & Heart”, updating the piano chords and organ stabs of ’90s dance pop with 21st-century production values. While Corry’s timeless hooks are perfect for radio, he’s careful to always have something special for the dance floor. As he told Apple Music: “With all my records I like to do my own VIP mix”—that is, a club-ready version that’s a little tougher and heavier. With reality TV in the rearview, these days Corry’s simply keeping it real. - Apple Music Top 100 Chart History Joel Corry 2019 06 Sorry -NAS- MILLIONAIRE 2020 04 Lonely -NAS- MILLIONAIRE 2020 01 Head & Heart (feat.

December 3, 20214 yr 24 | 19 | 10th week Coldplay and BTS My Universe 2nd single from Music of the Spheres Released: 24th September 2021 Label: Parlophone Records Chart Statistics NE (07/10/2021) | 3-12-15-5-7-13-12-17-19-24 Sales: 200k+ Certification: Silver Status: Standard Chart Ratio 01 Sales 12 Audio Streaming 12 Video Streaming Video 3YqPKLZF_WU Biography Coldplay Coldplay frontman Chris Martin once joked that the two biggest challenges in his life were trying to follow Radiohead and trying to follow Brad Pitt. The Pitt reference was personal, of course—Martin had been married to Pitt’s former fiancée Gwyneth Paltrow—but his self-assessment still felt remarkably apt: Coldplay isn’t just one of the most popular bands in the world, but also torchbearers for a kind of mainstream art-rock whose roots reach back through Radiohead, U2, Pink Floyd and even The Beatles. Yes, the music is anthemic enough to fill arenas—“Clocks”, “Speed of Sound”, “Paradise”, “A Sky Full of Stars”—but detailed and atmospheric, too, stretching the conventions of modern rock without ever losing the emotional thread. Formed in London in the mid-’90s, the band debuted with 2000’s Parachutes. Seasons have changed—the arty experiments of 2008’s Viva la Vida or Death and All His Friends, the electro-rush of 2011’s Mylo Xyloto, the eclecticism of 2019’s Everyday Life—but the core of their sound has been consistent: Propulsive, uplifting, grand but vulnerable. In crowded bars and lonely bedrooms, the effect is more or less the same: At the end of the day, Coldplay came for the heart. - Apple Music BTS Calling BTS a boy band is a little like calling a computer a typewriter with a screen. Yes, they sing. Yes, they dance. Yes, they have cool haircuts and their outfits always match in an interesting way. But they also represent the power of pop music—simple, catchy pop music—as a force for social transformation, touching on subjects—mental health, LGBTQ identity, class inequity—taboo not just in their native South Korea but in the sunshine-and-rainbows world of mass-market culture generally. The official name of their fans (the ARMY), is an acronym for “Adorable Representative MC for Youth.” But the subtext is clear: These are people willing to fight for what they believe. Formed in 2010 by K-pop impresario Bang Si-hyuk, the group—V, j-hope, RM, Jin, Jimin, Jungkook, and SUGA—swiftly became not only one of the biggest groups in South Korea (and eventually the best-selling artists in the country’s history), but an emblem for K-pop’s migration into mainstream global pop—a feat made even more impressive by the fact that the band sings almost entirely in Korean. More than just developing a brand, BTS crafted a rich, reference-heavy alternate universe that invoked things like Jungian psychoanalysis and Nietzschean philosophy—not your most bankable teen-pop references. (The video to their 2016 track “Blood Sweat & Tears” is, if not the only music video in history to feature both a coordinated dance routine and a quote from the Hermann Hesse novel Demian, certainly the only one to have been watched more than half a billion times.) But for as dense as the band’s mythology can get, their presence remains simple, clear, and uplifting. In 2017, they partnered with UNICEF in a campaign to protect young people from violence; the next year, their fans raised over $1 million in an effort to alleviate childhood malnutrition. SUGA once promised that if he got rich, he would buy his fans beef—a luxury in Korea. On his 25th birthday, he donated nearly $20,000 of it to orphanages. And he did it in ARMY’s name. - Apple Music Top 100 Chart History Coldplay 1999 92 Brothers & Sisters -NAS- 2000 35 Shiver -1- 2000 04 Yellow -2- MILLIONAIRE 2000 10 Trouble -3- 2002 02 In My Place -1- 2002 10 The Scientist -2- MILLIONAIRE 2003 09 Clocks -3- 2003 87 Remixes -EP- 2003 100 God Put A Smile On Your Face -4- 2005 02 Speed Of Sound -1- 2005 04 Fix You -2- MILLIONAIRE 2005 10 Talk -3- 2008 08 Violet Hill -1- 2008 54 Lost! -3- 2008 01 Viva La Vida -2- MILLIONAIRE 2009 28 Life In Technicolor II -4- 2010 88 A Message 2010 13 Christmas Lights -NAS- 2011 06 Every Teardrop Is A Waterfall -1- 2011 01 Paradise -2- MILLION SELLER 2011 04 Princess Of China (Coldplay & Rihanna) -4- 2011 22 Charlie Brown -3- 2013 12 Atlas -OST- 2014 10 Magic -1- 2014 48 Midnight -IG- 2014 09 A Sky Full Of Stars -2- MILLIONAIRE 2014 70 Another's Arms -AT- 2014 95 Miracles -OST- 2015 07 Adventure Of A Lifetime -1- MILLIONAIRE 2015 52 Everglow -4- 2016 06 Hymn For The Weekend -2- MILLIONAIRE 2016 71 Up&Up -3- 2017 02 Something Just Like This (The Chainsmokers & Coldplay) -1- MILLIONAIRE 2017 70 Hypnotised -PS- 2017 54 Miracles (Someone Special) (Coldplay & Big Sean) -2- 2019 27 Orphans -1- 2019 93 Champion Of The World -AT- 2019 94 Church -AT- 2021 12 Higher Power -1- 2021 03 My Universe (Coldplay & BTS) -2- 2021 24 Let Somebody Go (Coldplay & Selena Gomez) -AT- 2 x #1 | 9 x Top 5 | 19 x Top 10 | 22 x Top 20 | 27 x Top 40 | 41 x Top 100 BTS 2017 90 DNA -1- 2017 43 MIC Drop (feat.

It was founded in 1984 by Bob Geldof and Midge Ure to raise money for anti-famine efforts in Ethiopia by releasing the song "Do They Know It's Christmas?" for the Christmas market that year. On 25 November 1984, the song was recorded at Sarm West Studios in Notting Hill, London, and was released in the UK on Monday 3 December. The single surpassed the hopes of the producers to become the Christmas number one on that release. Three subsequent re-recordings of the song to raise further money for charity also topped the charts, first the Band Aid II version in 1989 and the Band Aid 20 version in 2004 and finally the Band Aid 30 version in 2014. The original was produced by Midge Ure. The 12" version was mixed by Trevor Horn. - Wikipedia Top 100 Chart History 1984 01 Do They Know It's Christmas? -NAS- MILLION SELLER 1989 01 Do They Know It's Christmas?

Performing rockabilly, pop and country music, she had 47 US chart hits during the 1960s and is ranked fourth in that decade, surpassed only by Elvis Presley, the Beatles and Ray Charles. She is known for her 1960 hit "I'm Sorry", and 1958's "Rockin' Around the Christmas Tree", which has become a Christmas standard. At 4 ft 9 inches tall (approximately 145 cm), she received the nickname "Little Miss Dynamite" in 1957, after recording the song "Dynamite" when she was 12, and was one of the earliest pop stars to have a major contemporary international following. In 1969, Lee returned to the charts with her recording "Johnny One Time" penned by A.L. "Doodle" Owens and Dallas Frazier. The song reached #3 on Billboard's Adult Contemporary Chart and #41 on the Billboard Hot 100. The song also earned Lee her second Grammy nomination for Best Pop Female Vocal. Later success came with a return to her roots as a country singer, with a string of hits through the 1970s and 1980s. She is a member of the Rock and Roll, Country Music and Rockabilly Halls of Fame. She is also a Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award recipient. Lee is the only woman to be inducted into both the Rock and Roll and Country Music Halls of Fame. She lives in Nashville, Tennessee. - Wikipedia Top 100 Chart History 1960 04 Sweet Nothin's -2'- 1960 12 I'm Sorry -3'- 1960 31 I Want To Be Wanted -1- 1961 12 Let's Jump The Broomstick -1'- 1961 45 Emotions -1- 1961 22 Dum Dum -1*- 1961 38 Fool #1 -1- 1962 46 Break It To Me Gently -1^- 1962 03 Speak To Me Pretty -2*- 1962 05 Here Comes That Feeling -NAS- 1962 15 It Started All Over Again -NAS- 1962 06 Rockin' Around The Christmas Tree -1"- MILLIONAIRE 1963 07 All Alone Am I -1- 1963 10 Losing You -2^- 1963 14 I Wonder -1- 1963 28 Sweet Impossible You -NAS- 1964 05 As Usual -2- 1964 26 Think -1~- 1964 17 Is It True? -NAS- 1964 25 Christmas Will Be Just Another Lonely Day -2"- 1965 41 Thanks A Lot -NAS- 1965 22 Too Many Rivers -2~- 0 x #1 | 4 x Top 5 | 7 x Top 10 | 12 x Top 20 | 19 x Top 40 | 22 x Top 100 Social Media Brenda Lee http://i.imgur.com/1SERq1f.png
December 3, 20214 yr Is there a worse xmas song than this? Probably not All subjective but definitely one of the best. The 'Africa' line probably isn't great now but the sentiments overall are great rather than the insular selfish lyrics of many other songs.
December 3, 20214 yr Some people seem to particularly dislike DTKIC for some reason, not sure if it's because of the sentiment falling a bit flat when it's continuously being pumped out over Christmas parties / dinners, or whether there's more to it than that?
