All a bit of a mess now with ACR and not knowing if the Christmas singles will be effected.

Halloween is factor consider, depends if it stops Havana's momentum or effects Rockstar more.

Anyone know where Noel has peaked before with his tracks?

I think she will struggle. She will probably peak fairly high on iTunes but will drop fast and by the time her streaming hits moderate levels, the downloads will have dried up. I think the perception is that shes over hill now at 34, shes disappeared and had a baby. Her "fanbase" has moved on.

This will bomb, no one cares about a TOTP style show in 2017. The world has moved on.

Funny how she burst on the scene and was very big around 2011/2012 but then faded away very quickly barring Bang Bang which probably only sold so well because of Ariana and Nicki.

I bet Taylor feels a bit bad about knocking Katy down another position. B-)

I'm not a huge fan of either of them but i've heard stories about Nicole being a diva by a couple of other celebs who aren't the sort of stir anything for no reason.

Someones been triggered.

Its not really ignorant, its simply saying that artists are now cynically rushing to release music that sounds like Despacito because that was so big.

Mi Gente will be bigger than Little Mix's track in the long-term.

Does this Little Mix track have a verse purely of Jesy talking in her Jamaican accent?

No one has said you cant enjoy it but just gets a bit samey if most of the thread is taken over by posters cheerleading a particular artist. Always good to have a wide range of opinions and different talking points.

I get what people are saying. I remember the days when Katy Perry, Lady Gaga, Rihanna etc were all getting number ones on a regular basis and the general hysteria for female, solo artists on here.

The support for Dua Lipa recently has been a bit OTT. It seems to have become her own, personal, fan group in here.

Avicii's hit would have been big 3 years ago but I can't see it breaking through with the type of music that floods the charts now.

The Script's new track sounds like the perfect mix of Shape Of You and Despacito. I do quite like it but its a shame too see so many bands of their type making very generic sounding music nowadays.

Have we had any more information about Lily Allen's new album? It says June above in the coming soon section but that has been and gone.

This was always going to be the problem when they added streaming into the chart. They should just have separates charts for paid purchases and streaming. Constantly changing the rules and ratios because they aren't getting the chart they want is stupid.

I guess the strategy was to get another single out quickly, at the expense of Bon Appetit climbing further, to try and get more interest in the album but that seems to have not made much difference.

Bag It Up was wonderful, especially the video with her in charge!

So she has to do that even if causes mental health issues or a breakdown?

No but she doesn't have to put herself in a position that is causing her unhappiness.

I have to wonder why she feels so bad having to try and be Katy Perry but then releases an album, performs and tours under that name?

Wow, those lyrics are filth. Trying to get back to vaguely on topic, they dont need act raunchy in every video or performance they do or have such explicit lyrics. It seems they are trying to be as sexualised as possible for attention but they sell a lot of records because people like their music rather than "sex selling".
