April 7, 20233 yr Author 14 | 22 | 8th week Jax Jones and Calum Scott Whistle Non-album single Released: 10th February 2023 Label: Universal Music Chart Statistics NE (23/02/2023) | 100-67-46-34-31-25-22-14 Sales: 60k+ Certification: - Status: Standard Chart Ratio 04 Sales 42 Audio Streaming 39 Video Streaming Video xpLS7tpVWMM Biography Jax Jones When Duke Dumont topped the UK charts with his single “I Got U” in 2014, many listeners may have assumed that featured artist Jax Jones was the singer. In fact, Jones (born Timucin Aluo in 1987) was a co-writer and producer on the song, and its No. 1 position marked his auspicious debut. Raised in London by a Turkish father, a Malaysian mother and a Nigerian stepfather, the Apple Music Up Next alum grew up on a mix of American hip-hop, UK dance and African music, which might help to explain the mix of styles that swirls through his own tracks: His youthful fondness for Prince shows through in funk-infused cuts like 2015’s “Ocean Drive”, while Afro-Caribbean accents bubble up in 2018’s “Ring Ring”, a lilting tropical-house collaboration with Mabel and Rich the Kid. Though his beats generally follow the punchy cadence of deep-diving future house, he brings a hip-hop producer’s collage sensibility to the mixing desk: Many of his productions slyly interpolate other songs. “You Don’t Know Me”, from 2016, is built around the slinky hook of M.A.N.D.Y. and Booka Shade’s 2005 anthem “Body Language”, while “I Got U” contains a choice bit of Whitney Houston’s “My Love Is Your Love”. Whether on his own productions or his remixes for Ellie Goulding, Charli XCX and Missy Elliott, Jones’ habitual blend of pop polish and house groove is unmistakable. “I just thought I'd try it,” he told Apple Music about his relationship to dance music. “House is a collage of everything the creator is. If you love hip-hop, you can chuck that in there. If you love rock, you can chuck that in there too. It took a long time, but now it makes a lot of sense. It’s sample-based and also musical, so it's a very natural fit. Life is beautiful like that. They say you have to, like, get rid of yourself to go to the next level. And I think that’s what happened.” - Apple Music Calum Scott Calum Scott honed his huge, honeyed pipes singing other people’s songs, but he didn’t fully find his voice until he began creating his own intimate pop vignettes. Born in 1988, in the Northern England city of Kingston upon Hull, Scott first took up the drums, while his sister Jade became the singer of the family. Eventually, Jade discovered her brother’s natural way with a fierce falsetto and chilling vibrato and signed him up for a local singing competition in 2013. He sang Paolo Nutini’s “Last Request” and won. Following that thrill of performing in front of a crowd, Scott joined Maroon 4, a Maroon 5 cover band, before tagging along with Jade at an audition for the ninth series of Britain’s Got Talent. There, with a stunning, slowed-down version of Robyn’s “Dancing On My Own,” he blew away the judges, especially the notoriously scathing Simon Cowell, who pressed the “Golden Buzzer,” sending Scott directly to the live semifinals. Nerves got the better of him in the finals, and while he didn’t win, the singer used that exposure to launch his solo career and start writing material for his 2018 debut album, Only Human. Like his showstopping Robyn cover, Scott’s original songs are both poignant and empowering, especially the swaying, gospel-tinged celebration “You Are the Reason” and the piano-powered tearjerker “No Matter What,” a raw retelling of his experience coming out to his parents. Such personal tales bring out a sincerity and soulfulness that show Scott’s songwriting to be just as moving as his voice. - Apple Music Top 100 Chart History Jax Jones 2014 01 I Got U (Duke Dumont feat.

April 7, 20233 yr great to see such a big jump for React this week, top 10 peak looking likely for this now then, let's hope it out-peaks 21 Reasons.
April 7, 20233 yr 'React' really is such garbage, she even sounds bored singing it. Not half as bored as I feel listening to it though.
April 7, 20233 yr yay for Whistle jumping into the top 20 too, hope to see this join React in the top 10 before long.

Described as having a compelling vocal style, it is clear to see that her addiction to music and song writing is helping her to sort out the world around her. Her style? think Adele, emotional ballads in her own unique style with an instantly recognisable powerful voice. - Spotify Top 100 Chart History 2023 13 If We Ever Broke Up -1- 0 x #1 | 0 x Top 5 | 0 x Top 10 | 1 x Top 20 | 1 x Top 40 | 1 x Top 100 Social Media Mae Stephens http://i.imgur.com/1SERq1f.png
April 7, 20233 yr Great to see new talent emerge. It isn't mixed very well though Edited April 7, 20233 yr by Y'all Starlight
April 7, 20233 yr Praying that somehow GGG has missed the top 10 and is at 11 or 12…. Not holding my breathe though
April 7, 20233 yr I thought Robert Miles was credited on REACT, but I guess not on OCC - it's equalled the peak of his last Top 40 hit anyway.
April 7, 20233 yr 'If We Ever Broke Up' is alright but again another I'm not massively loving. The music in the back is a bit jarring ngl.
April 7, 20233 yr Oh yes at the new peak for Mae! Do I dare hold out hope for Mimi to get one too? We pray, please Mimi save us from Ezra. I'm really desperate right now
April 7, 20233 yr Author I thought Robert Miles was credited on REACT, but I guess not on OCC - it's equalled the peak of his last Top 40 hit anyway. Also not Apple Music which is what I use most of the time for credits
