20 hours ago20 hr Heart Skips A Beat is pleasant enough but not outstanding. I just don’t think I ever really got Olly, he felt like a cut price Bruno Mars at times. I do think this is better than his other 2011 number one though, which I really don’t like.
20 hours ago20 hr Ahhh Polymers. I was trying to figure out who else had two number ones this year. I probably only really like a handful of his songs but this is by faaar his best for me!Also my favourite Calvin track so that's an amazing top 2.

18 minutes ago18 min Author 12 – No Regrets - Dappy1 Week at #1 / Weekly Sales – 96,639#64 in EOY 2011 – Total Sales of 311,600Up now is Dappy, real name Costadinos Contostavlos, who was one third of British Hip-Hop trio N-Dubz. No Regrets was released as the debut solo single in September where it flew into #1 in it’s first week on the chart selling 96.639 copies. Beating out other new releases for the week Jason Derulo’s It Girl (#4), James Morrison’s I Won’t Let Go (#5) and Nicola Roberts’s Luck Day (#40). No Regrets is also one of six songs that kept Maroon 5’s Moves Like Jagger at #2 for seven consecutive weeks. No Regrets was initially intended to be included on N-Dubz debut US album but that never materialised, the N-Dubz version did however find its way onto their greatest hits album which was released later in 2011 as well. It’s a song for me that feels very of it’s time so it’s easy to see why it got to #1. I found I quote from a Digital Spy review back in 2011 that made the comment “combined with an impressive vocal showing, gospel choir and that key change that could put an X Factor winner’s single to shame”. That struck me as it was exactly what I thought when I first heard this song.This started off very low down for me but I found myself enjoying it more and more every time I listened to it and to my surprise it finished just outside my top 10.
