iTunes Weekly Thread: W/C 30th December 2012
Lightning Bolt was performed on Jools Holland right after the New Year programme had finished on BBC 1, maybe that's why it has climbed if a lot of people watched. Another Love is being uses on a BBC advert, too.

She didn't have any chart hits in 2012 did she?

Adele's 21 outsells Morning Glory in the UK
Maybe 21's not the fourth best album ever, but I think it deserves every sale. It's a really strong album (for me it plays like a greatest hits) and those sales represent just how omnipresent Adele was last year.

Music of 2013
It won't be big at all, but according to Wikipedia Laura Marling is releasing a new album in February.

The Guardian Sums up 2012
I think Little Mix have done quite well, when you compare Wings to all of the other X Factor songs from 2011 contestants it is the biggest selling and probably the best. It is all well and good comparing it to 212, but that's one of the biggest dance/rap songs of the year and that Wings is even close to it makes it successful.

The 2012 Buzzjack Chart Awards: Song Of The Year
212 and Princess Of China are my favourites of 2012, although on here I went for Domino closely followed by Starships. A lot of the songs I like haven't sold massively which is a change from 2011.

Songs That Could've Been Hits: Most Underrated Songs Of 2012
Someone's mentioned her already but I think both 110% and Wildest Moments could have been really big hits for Jessie Ware with the right amount of exposure. UznHTBZIa8E Laura should have been huge for Bat For Lashes too, it's absolutely stunning. I think that it could have had a Video Games sort of success as the songs are quite alike and would appeal to the same types of people.

What Under Performing Albums Will Recover In 2013?
I was just about to put this! With Figure 8 rising at the moment it's looking promising.

X Factor 2012 - Live Shows: The Final
I think every bit of hype surrounding Rita Ora died with Shine Ya Light, it's pleasant but so underwhelming.
-
X Factor 2012 - Live Shows: The Final
Thought the sub-standard Make You Feel My Love renditions had been left in 2010...
-
Emeli Sandé - Clown
I think releasing this could be a mistake, it's probably my least favourite from the album and this is coming from a huge Emeli fan. Agree that Maybe would have been a better choice, it's fantastic.

iTunes Weekly Thread: W/C 2nd December 2012
Massive boost for Spectrum please. Ella, however brief, was amazing.

'Unapologetic' // 7th Album
It's just all about Love Without Tragedy atm. I hope she releases it and does a single version without Mother Mary on, I do like it but LWT is far superior and it seems completely pointless to put the two songs together as one.
-
Kesha - Warrior
Why why why did I ask for this for Christmas? Gonna have to live like 3 weeks with the knowledge that there is a Ke$Ha album out there I don't own. Hope it's as good as Animal.

Angel Haze - Cleaning Out My Closet
U7bZ08RNUyM I've not entirely familiar with Eminem's version, but this is really good. So far this and New York are all I've heard from Angel Haze and both are quite appealing. I've just downloaded 'Classick' and 'Reservation' and will be giving them a listen later!

iTunes Weekly Thread: W/C 18th November 2012
Alicia might be a bit of a wildcard because she'll have two versions of GOF doing well this week - the normal version and the 'inferno' version with Nicki Minaj that's being played on Capital. Keys/Aloud for #1
-
iTunes Weekly Thread: W/C 11th November 2012
I really hope Alicia can put herself up there with the other 2 big releases. I'm anticipating at least Top 5. The last couple of weeks have been hectic as far as the upper regions of the chart are concerned!

Reggie Yates says charts are 'healthier than ever'
The charts aren't irrelevant but I don't think they matter as much as they used to. I doubt many people know what song is #1 at any given time.
-
Nicki Minaj 'The Boys' // 'Va Va Voom'
I hope Nicki releases another song like Super Bass, because that epitomises everything I love about her. I think the choruses are some of the best from any song she's done and the chorus is undeniable. I think she works the best when she basically raps over pop songs.
-
Figure 8 | 2nd single
Figure 8's a really good song, my favourite from the album, but unfortunately I just can't see it doing well as a single. However much I love Halcyon I don't think anything else on it will be successful. Hopefully I'll be proven wrong.
