October 20, 20233 yr surprised the Zarguetta track has managed to rebound in but I guess that is the power of heavy Apple playlisting putting it top ten on that platform (whilst it's doing zero on Spotify)

Such ambitious sounds are fitting for a band named after the French anniversary of the Storming of the Bastille, a date that also happens to be the founder and frontman Dan Smith's birthday (July 14). Formed in 2010 after the Leeds-born singer/songwriter moved to London and connected with keyboardist Kyle Simmons, guitarist/bassist Will Farquarson and drummer Chris Wood, the quartet quickly rose from indie darlings to one of the biggest bands on the planet. Their takeover began with "Pompeii"—from their 2013 debut album, Bad Blood— a boisterous blend of glossy synth-pop and arena rock where Smith lays out a challenge in the face of societal doom: "How am I gonna be an optimist about this?" he asks. Through gloomy lyrics—especially on 2016's Wild World and 2019's Doom Days, Bastille's "apocalyptic party album", Smith told Apple Music—the answer surfaces in their sound, an ever-expansive mix of moody electro-pop, euphoric house, falsetto-laced R&B and glorious gospel. And their collaborations are just as thrilling and unpredictable: tracks with Marshmello (the slick dance-pop single, "Happier"); HAIM, Craig David and Seeb (from their ongoing Other People's Heartache mixtape series); and Blur guitar hero Graham Coxon (2020's "WHAT YOU GONNA DO???", the band's scrappiest slice of rock yet). As long as it's Bastille, the music will always be "exciting and uplifting," said Smith, "but devastatingly sad at the same time." - Apple Music Top 100 Chart History 2012 90 Bad Blood -1- 2012 21 Flaws -2- 2013 02 Pompeii -3- MILLIONAIRE 2013 42 Laura Palmer -4- 2013 28 Things We Lost In The Fire -5- 2013 02 Of The Night -6- 2014 21 Pompeii / Waiting All Night (Bastille & Rudimental feat.

The Australian actor, singer/songwriter and YouTuber, born in Johannesburg, South Africa, in 1995, already displayed a natural command of the stage at just 11 years old, when he delivered his first of a series of much-lauded performances at the 2006, 2007 and 2008 Channel Seven Perth Telethons. His ability to capture an audience won him views on social media, a platform he used to both propel his singing career and as a confessional; he came out publicly as gay via a YouTube video when he was 18 years old. His 2015 debut LP, Blue Neighbourhood, effortlessly landed him in the spotlight, with songs like “YOUTH” and “WILD” serving as the perfect introduction to his brand of sleek, honey-coated synth-pop. His follow-up, Bloom (2018), proved that he could also play well with others, namely pop titan Ariana Grande for their mesmerising duet, “Dance to This''. This knack for collaboration would have him working with a constellation of the era’s most talented stars like Charli XCX on 2018’s iconic throwback anthem “1999” and Lauv on 2019’s “i’m so tired…”, a groovy and relatable anti-pop song where both artists boldly claim to be “tired of love songs”. An icon of queer representation, Sivan has been open about his sexuality and has graciously used his platform to support other LGBTQ artists and causes. - Apple Music Top 100 Chart History 2014 86 Happy Little Pill -1- 2015 62 WILD -1- 2016 96 YOUTH -2- 2017 40 There For You (Martin Garrix & Troye Sivan) 2018 38 My My My! -1- 2018 64 Dance To This (feat.
