Wonder if the weekly sales of 'Houdini' were outdone this week, even when adjusting for ACR?

'Unwritten' had more than long enough for me this year.

Biography

 

Armed with a mesmerising, nimble soprano—and a vocal register often likened to those of Mariah Carey and Christina Aguilera—Ariana Grande began her career as a child star on Broadway and Nickelodeon before transforming into a pop and R&B powerhouse. Instantly recognisable thanks to her signature ponytail and breezy self-confidence, Grande, born in Florida in 1993, has developed a slyly sexual personal brand that has, like that of the Spice Girls before her, become an iconic image of young female power. But Grande is more than a symbol: over the course of several albums and scores of hit singles across the genre spectrum—beginning with 2013’s R&B crooner “The Way” (featuring Mac Miller) and continuing through to an EDM collab with Zedd (“Break Free”), slinky retro-soul (“Dangerous Woman”) and diva trap-pop (“7 rings”)—she has consistently outshined her male collaborators and deftly parlayed her stardom into activism. An LGBTQ+ advocate and outspoken feminist, she has long used her platform to confront misogyny, sexism, homophobia and bullying, spreading a message of love over all. Her Max Martin-produced smash “no tears left to cry”, an escapist dance-floor triumph released a year after a deadly terrorist attack at one of her concerts in 2017, and its subsequent album, Sweetener, sent a message of hope and healing, with a dose of hear-me-roar attitude. Grande’s pop vision has since focused inward, using music as a therapeutic tool for spiritual growth. After experiencing a devastating personal loss with the death of ex-boyfriend Mac Miller in 2018, she re-emerged with 2019’s thank u, next, an elegiac album that was as therapeutic as it was dance-ready, with a title track that sends off ex-lovers with a gentle kiss on the cheek. The following year’s pandemic-written Positions highlights Grande’s mellifluous vocals and her desire to be content in love—even when boasting about her sexual prowess (as on the cheeky “34+35”), the real star of her heart is her own self. And on her lush, auto-fictitious 2024 concept album, eternal sunshine, she glides with a coy smile and a heavenly whistle through the emotions of a woman betrayed, perceived and adored, with a short wave to critics and tabloids on the pulsing house groove of “yes, and?” - Apple Music

Biography

 

In addition to tending to an acting career that has included a prominent role on Stranger Things, Joe Keery maintains a thriving indie music career under the name Djo (pronounced “Joe”). Born in Massachusetts in 1992, he first released music under the name Cool Cool Cool before cutting his teeth as a touring and recording member of the Chicago rock band Post Animal. Keery stepped away from the group due to his increasingly busy acting schedule but began releasing music as Djo in 2019. He followed that year’s psychedelic-pop-leaning Twenty Twenty with 2022’s DECIDE, a full-length that incorporated synth-heavy pop that was full of heart—as embodied by the 2024 viral hit “End of Beginning,” which tapped into longing and nostalgia for the past. - Apple Music

if they skipped Iris and Riptide sure they will skip Mr Brightside too

we can't be friends is stunning :wub: and End of Beginning is one of my favourite hits of the year, so so good :heart:

Wonder if the weekly sales of 'Houdini' were outdone this week, even when adjusting for ACR?

'Unwritten' had more than long enough for me this year.

I think Wham! must have done about 220k SCR so I think so!

Forgot all about this song it was decent for a hot minute

Really liked this Djo song too!

haven't heard this in forever, sounds great after months of not listening

Really like End Of Beginning, a very welcome surprise hit! Unwritten stuck around way too long but it was great to see it have a revival

Biography

 

The Killers dropped English synth-pop down into their glitzy, scuzzy Las Vegas world, and a familiar sound became brand new. The group launched in 2001, when frontman Brandon Flowers—then working in casinos—answered a advert from guitarist Dave Keuning; they wrote their breakout single, “Mr. Brightside”, at their first meeting. Rounded out by drummer Ronnie Vannucci and bassist Mark Stoermer, they rose to popularity with 2004’s glammy, post-punk Hot Fuss, its single "Somebody Told Me" a cheeky summary of a million conversations in the clubs. While initially seeming like a flashier counterpart to the dourness of The Strokes and Interpol, The Killers traded synthesisers for more guitars in the early 2000s, introducing a new sound akin to U2 and Springsteen on albums like 2006’s Sam’s Town and 2017’s Wonderful Wonderful. They do believe in love and rock, but they seem to feel a little sheepish about it as they get ready to go out. They returned in 2020 with their sixth album, Imploding the Mirage, and the Lindsey Buckingham-assisted single “Caution”. The song serves as both a return to roots and a mission statement for their future, as Flowers told Apple Music that it reminded The Killers of a universal truth: "Rock 'n' roll can be transcendent.” - Apple Music

both Ariana's big hits this year were a lot better than her handful of #1s from 2018-2020 (excluding Rain on Me)

was good to have her do a synthpop track and not surprised it ended up bigger than 'Yes, and'.

 

'End of Beginning' is decent ~
