Discovered performing at a school assembly, Robyn (born Robin Miriam Carlsson in Stockholm in 1979) launched her professional career at 15, cowriting every song on 1995's Robyn Is Here, including "Show Me Love" and "Do You Know (What It Takes)," both of which crossed over outside Sweden and made her a genuine if somewhat reluctant star. Burned by the conservatism of the industry (especially when it came to the treatment of young women), she left her label in the early 2000s in order to start her own—a move that essentially set her back to square one, but also made her an emblem of independence at a time when pop, as a sound, was beginning to split from the conventions of the business. Working slowly, deliberately, and with a small circle of collaborators (including Klas Ã…hlund of Teddybears and Joseph Mount of Metronomy), she helped redefine pop as something that could be cool and almost boutique, releasing a string of singles and EPs (including 2010's Body Talk series) by turns vulnerable and empowering, triumphant and deeply bittersweet—bangers you could weep to. After taking a nearly eight-year-long break from releasing solo music (a gamble almost unheard-of for a pop artist in their prime), Robyn returned in 2018 with Honey, recasting loss—romantic and personal—as the fire in which strong hearts are forged. "I wish everyone could have a fan club that would just cheer them on and root for them," she told Apple Music. "What if you have people on your Instagram, texting you, 'Yeah, I'm so excited you're going to work!'" It was a joke, of course, but the sentiment—bringing the rush of pop to a human scale—is one she built a career on. - Apple MusicTop 100 Chart History1996 54 You've Got That Somethin' -1-1996 26 Do You Know (What It Takes) -2-1998 08 Show Me Love -3-1998 20 Do You Really Want Me (Show Respect) -4-2007 98 Konichiwa Bitches -1-2007 01 With Every Heartbeat (with Kleerup) -2-2007 17 Handle Me -3-2008 10 Be Mine! -4-2008 26 Who's That Girl? -5-2008 29 Dream On (Christian Falk feat.

October 2Oct 2 5 minutes ago, Stephen Emmett said:Nostalgia bait going round, 2004 songs back-to-back. Why is this the most important year according to nostalgia bait?2004 was pretty bad in the chart but there was a ton of stuff that was actually amazing that stood the test of time. I remember it was all about Franz Ferdinand, Snow Patrol, Incubus, Mars Volta for me!
October 2Oct 2 3 minutes ago, pop enthusiast said:Because these old songs benefitted from the different measurements first time round before streaming was include and when songs were shunted out quicker, they don't deserve a second. 60s music remained popular into the 90s but it didn't clog up the chart because more people bought new music. Streaming doesn't have that failsafe and unfairly advantages old songs. 3 year from release limit would fix the chart overnight.It’s not an “unfair advantage” if they simply get more streams than new songs. No one is forced to listen to anything and no one is entitled to a high chart position

Before they paved a lane for a new generation of stars that included Destiny's Child and Ashanti, the Atlanta-bred trio of Tionne “T-Boz” Watkins, Lisa “Left Eye” Lopes, and Rozonda “Chilli” Thomas nabbed a spot on L.A. Reid’s LaFace Records. Their sound on early hits like “What About Your Friends” updated new jack swing for the ‘90s rap generation, and their choreographed dance moves were bested only by their colourful matching outfits. TLC’s colossally replayable hits, like “Creep”, “Waterfalls” and “No Scrubs,” continue to crop up in movies and on the radio, while their second LP, CrazySexyCool, has been certified 12-times platinum. That album featured production from Sean “Puffy” Combs and Jermaine Dupri, giving the group head-nodding beats over which they could move from rapping to singing with ease. Although the band’s last release as a trio came in 2002, the year Lopes was tragically killed in a car crash, TLC remained one of the best-selling female-led groups through the 2010s. Ultimately, it would be another 15 years before T-Boz and Chilli released new music, with 2017's self-titled return, a nostalgic, rose-tinted audit of the styles that made them so successful the first time around. Live performances found the duo performing their parts accompanied by a recording of Left Eye’s voice, a way to give their fans just a little more TLC. - Apple MusicTop 100 Chart History1992 13 Ain't 2 Proud 2 Beg -1-1992 55 Baby-Baby-Baby -2-1992 59 What About Your Friends -3-1995 06 Creep -1-1995 18 Red Light Special -2-1995 04 Waterfalls -3-1995 18 Diggin' On You -4-1999 03 No Scrubs -1- MILLIONAIRE1999 06 Unpretty -2-1999 31 Dear Lie -3-2002 30 Girl Talk -1-0 x #1 | 2 x Top 5 | 4 x Top 10 | 7 x Top 20 | 9 x Top 40 | 11 x Top 100Social Media TLC

October 2Oct 2 Melody has a UK top 40 hit! She released her first song at age 8 and she's still just 19.
October 2Oct 2 Melody is a real brazilian singer, she's terrible at singing tho, maybe that's why they choose AI vocals

October 2Oct 2 Just now, No Sleeep said:It’s not an “unfair advantage” if they simply get more streams than new songs. No one is forced to listen to anything and no one is entitled to a high chart positionIt's an unfair advantage due to broken chart rules that aren't fit for how people actually consume music. Unless you think The Beatles should have been charting every week in the 90s as well. A 3 year limit on the main chart and a separate classics chart is such an obvious fix. As I type this more old crap denying new songs their moment in the chart.
