A lot of that pop intuition and innovation starts with frontman Ryan Tedder, who began playing coffeehouses in Colorado in the late ’90s with high school buddies including guitarist Zach Filkins. When Tedder moved to Los Angeles a few years later, he reconnected with Filkins and together they formed OneRepublic in 2002. At the same time, Tedder was building his career as a songwriter, eventually writing and producing singles for artists like Leona Lewis, Hilary Duff, and Jennifer Lopez. But when it came to his own band, he’s said his goal has never been to write a hit, only to create genuine works of art: “It has to be a hundred-percent authentic and visceral to my human experience. If I haven’t felt it, if I didn’t go through it, if it’s not resonating with me, I can’t sing it,” Tedder told Apple Music. That straight-from-the-heart mentality is what ignites the straight-to-the-gut effect of OneRepublic’s greatest anthems, starting with their 2006 debut single “Apologize”—which eventually became a multiplatinum success—and later with even bigger songs like 2013’s propulsive folk-pop stomper “Counting Stars” and more diverse sounds such as 2016’s silvery synth groove “Kids.” As Tedder continues to rack up songwriting and production credits alongside Beyonce, Ed Sheeran, Adele, and other chart-topping stars, he’s still saving up his hardest emotional punches for OneRepublic’s next global smash. - Apple Music Top 100 Chart History 2007 03 Apologize (Timbaland presents OneRepublic) -1- MILLIONAIRE 2007 04 Stop And Stare -2- 2008 51 Say (All I Need) -3- 2010 30 All The Right Moves -1- 2010 77 Secrets -2- 2013 01 Counting Stars -1- MILLION SELLER 2014 07 If I Lose Myself (OneRepublic & Alesso) -2- 2014 03 Love Runs Out -3- 2014 29 I Lived -4- 2014 78 Something I Need -AT- 2016 29 Wherever I Go -1- 2016 58 Kids -2- 2017 84 Rich Love (feet.

December 31, 20223 yr 21 Adele Easy On Me 1st single from 30 Released: 15th October 2021 Label: Melted Stone Chart Statistics NE (28/10/2021) | [1-1-1-1-1-1-1-2-2-28-38]-1-2-3-5-23-23-25-30-33-39-44-44-46-49-54-62-52-69-79-86-76-86-94-96-x RE (14/07/2022) | 84-x Sales: 1,500k+ Certification: 2x Platinum 01 Sales 01 Audio Streaming 01 Video Streaming Video U3ASj1L6_sY 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 Top 100 Chart History 2008 02 Chasing Pavements -1- MILLIONAIRE 2008 19 Hometown Glory -3- 2008 18 Cold Shoulder -2- 2008 04 Make You Feel My Love -4- MILLION SELLER 2011 02 Rolling In The Deep -1- MILLION SELLER 2011 01 Someone Like You -2- MILLION SELLER 2011 11 Set Fire To The Rain -3- MILLIONAIRE 2011 62 Turning Tables -AT- 2011 85 Rumour Has It -4- 2012 99 One And Only -AT- 2012 37 I Can't Make You Love Me -AT- 2012 02 Skyfall -OST- MILLIONAIRE 2015 01 Hello -1- MILLIONAIRE 2015 09 When We Were Young -2- MILLIONAIRE 2015 64 Million Years Ago -AT- 2016 41 All I Ask -AT- 2016 05 Send My Love (To Your New Lover) -3- MILLIONAIRE 2016 39 Water Under The Bridge -4- 2021 76 Love In The Dark -AT- 2021 01 Easy On Me -1- MILLIONAIRE 2021 02 Oh My God -2- 2021 04 I Drink Wine -3- 3 x #1 | 9 x Top 5 | 10 x Top 10 | 13 x Top 20 | 15 x Top 40 | 21 x Top 100 Social Media Adele http://i.imgur.com/1SERq1f.png
December 31, 20223 yr 20 David Guetta, Becky Hill and Ella Henderson Crazy What Love Can Do Non-album single Features on Only Honest on the Weekend and Everything I Didn't Say Released: 8th April 2022 Label: Warner Music UK Chart Statistics NE (21/04/2022) | 20-17-18-17-15-17-14-13-14-12-13-11-11-8-6-7-7-7-5-7-9-10-12-13-37-51-51-72-72-79-75-85-93-x Sales: 700k+ Certification: Platinum 04 Sales 07 Audio Streaming 16 Video Streaming Video 8bzesUu_a4I Biography David Guetta From his early days playing Chicago house in French discotheques to his long reign atop the pop charts, David Guetta has revolutionised dance music multiple times. Born in Paris in 1967, Guetta began DJing in the late ’80s, when the shimmery sound known as the “French touch” was taking shape. By the early 2000s, at his F*** Me I’m Famous parties in Ibiza, he had translated that melodic style into a clever merger of pop sass and club swagger. He parlayed that mix into pure platinum with hits like 2003’s “Just for One Day”, an energy-stoking rework of David Bowie’s “Heroes”, and 2002’s “Just a Little More Love”, a sultry bump-and-grind featuring R&B singer Chris Willis. That versatility—along with a knack for killer hooks—would become one of Guetta’s principal calling cards, and as EDM exploded across pop culture at the end of the 2000s, Guetta’s shapeshifting style led the way, yielding ecstatic affirmations (“When Love Takes Over”), feisty come-ons (“Sexy Bitch”) and unstoppable singalongs (The Black Eyed Peas’ “I Gotta Feeling”, which Guetta produced). Since then, his collaborations (Sia, Nicki Minaj) have kept listeners guessing even as his choruses—triumphant as a bottle of bubbly blowing its top—have proven one of pop’s most dependable pleasures. - Apple Music Becky Hill 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 Ella Henderson Bursting on to the scene in 2014, at just 18-years-old Ella Henderson went on to achieve global success with her debut single, ‘Ghost.’ Co-written with Ryan Tedder, the song became the fastest-selling debut single from any British Artist in 2014. That same year, Ella’s debut album, ‘Chapter One,’ (Salaam Remi, Babyface, Steve Mac, TMS) spawned her first Platinum selling album, making her one of only 3 UK artists to break Platinum in 2014. A revered artist, in 2015 Ella received two prestigious BRIT Award nominations for 'Best British Female' and 'Best British Single', rounding off the year with a landmark sell-out UK headline tour, which included two shows at London’s Shepherd’s Bush Empire. Following a whirlwind few years, Ella returned to the studio to being work on her next project. During the process she continued to collaborate with some of the biggest names in music, appearing on hits produced by superstar DJ’s Kygo and Sigma. She also returned to the live stage, touring with the likes of Take That, James Arthur and Rudimental, the latter of whom signed her to a new record deal with their label Major Toms/Asylum. For Ella, this marked a brand new start. “I want it to be fresh,” says the 23-year-old. “The industry's changed so drastically since I last released music over four years ago. I want to embrace that. I want to treat everything like it's a clean slate.” - Spotify Top 100 Chart History David Guetta 2002 46 Love, Don't Let Me Go (feat.

December 31, 20223 yr Author wasn't very fussed on Crazy.. really, so of course it was one of the biggest dance hits of the year. all three have done much better.
December 31, 20223 yr Thank God Luude missed top 20 after being top 10 in the EOY most of the first half. Too messy and noisy and not in a pleasant way for me. Also the original >>>>
December 31, 20223 yr 19 Lizzo About Damn Time 1st single from Special Released: 14th April 2022 Label: Nice Life Recording Company Chart Statistics NE (28/04/2022) | 60-67-15-4-4-5-3-4-5-6-7-7-6-7-8-8-32-35-36-43-41-52-58-63-70-63-78-84-100-x Sales: 700k+ Certification: Platinum 01 Sales 04 Audio Streaming 11 Video Streaming Video IXXxciRUMzE Biography Lizzo is here to let it out. Body positivity, queerness, the embrace of the self in all its possibilities: For her, the freer, the better. Yes, she’s a singer. And a rapper, and—wouldn’t you know it—a pretty impressive flautist. But she’s also an emblem for the idea that social progress starts from within, that her loving herself (and you loving you) is the first step to fighting the forces that keep marginalised people—Black, female, LGBTQ and otherwise—down. “I think that there’s a wave right now in human experience where we want to feel good, and we’re seeking out the practice of self-care and self-love,” she told Apple Music in 2020. “I think my music just happened to ebb and flow with the way we’re evolving as a people and a culture.” Born Melissa Jefferson in 1988, she grew up between Detroit and Houston, making her way through the Minneapolis indie community in her early twenties. She worked steadily through the 2010s, forging a confident, outsized blend of gospel, R&B, hip-hop and pop before breaking through with 2019’s Cuz I Love You. She could be funny (“I just took a DNA test/Turns out I’m 100% that bitch,” she raps at the beginning of “Truth Hurts”), vulnerable (“Cuz I Love You”), quirky (“Batches & Cookies”) and empowering (“Juice”). In every case, though, her music brings a muchness, a saturated sense of vibrancy and humour and soul and self-assuredness that just kinda makes you feel good.
