How on earth did you stumble across it, it's almost a year old!

Yes, I get a 404 error.

Yes, Honduras or somewhere, with the no.1 selling 3 copies with 27 joint no.2s each selling 2 copies! Edit: Just looked it up, there's actually 78 joint no.2s each selling 2 copies :) http://digitalsalesdata.com/diydsd.php?Region=143510

Yes, it was from that deletion that we learned that the iTUnes chart wasn't the 48hr rolling chart most had hitherto presumed it to be. Did anyone determine what it was? I guess I'll just have to keep an eye on this version to see when it disappears.

Define 'popularity'. It's such a broad-based term. The most sold? The most listened to? Airplay? Well it's a combination of them all of course but how you combine them into a chart I don't know. Not that I think airplay should *ever* be included but it is one of the factors that would be considered in defining the term.

I don't think Pharrell will make it, though I hope he does. Yes, he will get a considerable boost from the Brits but just look at how far Sam Smith is ahead and how much he would have to claw back with the Brits not even being transmitted until Wednesday. On a low sales week he could do it but I don't think it's even going to be close.

You cared enough to comment though.

Are you surprised? I didn't think they would play it at all.

It hasn't even overtaken Pharrell on Kworb but it is no.1 on LivePopBars. http://www.livepopbars2.com/lpb1024.php?Re...44&Chart=34

Happy clearly had a boost from somewhere yesterday evening.

Fair enough, probably best not to go there. However as with any song on the iTunes chart, we are allowed to make comment on their content.

It's already slipping. I don't think it will make the top 40 now.

You do realise it's glorifying terrorists, don't you?

Pharrell is slowly but surely eating his way into their lead though. It could be close.

It's still relatively early but Zedd doesn't seem to be increasing much. Pharrell to return to no.1 for a second time?

That will be confusing to the casual chart watcher who isn't aware of the ins and outs and the reasons for these things. They will hear it high in the top 10 one week then it's vanished the next. *WTF* they will think, even a casual chart watcher will know tracks don't normally do that. These deletions made the charts into a bit of a farce at the time.

Ah right, thanks. I thought it might be something like that, what with this being 'awards season' and all that.

Why is this almost back into the top 40? That's far too big a rise to just be a random movement.

I don't think that's what he meant.....

They have a number of MEPs, which is somewhat ironic, to say the least......

So do Kylie's.....

There's no limits!

What UKIP gay marriage row? Still 'It's Raining Men' is currently no.140 on iTunes, and I wouldn't expect this to be in the top 1500, so this campaign, whatever it must be having an effect. Edit: Just looked this up and I remember hearing about this now, the UKIP guy who thought that the recent flooding had been caused by Cameron's stance on gay marriage. 100% looney tunes :)

Even if you hate the track you would have to admit it would be an incredible chart feat. Somebody on here said if it happened it would be the first track since the 1950s to do so. I believe it was Frankie Laine.

Careful there.....
