  3. I think Rixton and Benny Blanco openly sampled and interpolated that melody, which was then approved, as opposed to copying it without permission then giving him a credit after someone had said something. This Robin Thicke situation is absolutely ridiculous and, as was mentioned above, sheer desperation.
  4. Your signature is EVERYTHING. Dinah Nah to win Melodifestivalen and the award for Best Popstar Name. 2. Flo Rida - GDFR (feat. Sage The Gemini & Lookas) 4. Usher - I Don't Mind (feat. Juicy J)
  5. Body Language is a joint Stargate and Cashmere Cat production! As are Break the Rules, All Hands on Deck and Drop That Kitty! Stargate and Cashmere Cat together resemble DJ Mustard quite a lot (bar Break the Rules). Cashmere Cat also worked with Benny Blanco on Ariana's "Be My Baby" and Ryn Weaver's "OctaHate"!

  13. okay 1) it's "their" and not "there" 2) you're still incorrect as Le Youth is just one person (Wes James is his name IIRC) Anyway, I had completely forgot about Dance With Me! Strange as I rather like it, although C O O L is still far superior. Kendrick finishing way too low <//3 But at least i's position matches its official chart peak :magic:

  15. I remember that occurring because Capital had picked it up, was its impact date in December 2013 or January 2014? Either way, I personally think that was down to airplay volume; I don't think Blonde are in the same situation as Sub Focus. Of course, I could be completely wrong!
  16. Blonde seem to be doing what Breach and Wilkinson did last year with Everything You Never Had and Afterglow but on a much bigger scale! Not complaining though, fantastic to see it that high again.
  17. Ellis posted a post in a topic in UK Charts
    I regularly seem to catch Radio 1 when they spot-play Tik Tok and I'm Not Alone, seems odd that Kesha is one of their back catalogue plays but I'm not complaining! I also noticed the overplay of "We Own It" too!
  18. Really?! I wish it had bigger verses, the last chorus is very euphoric imo (thnx Max Martin) 84

  20. When I read that most of the tracks were produced by Max Martin and Shellback I knew this was going to be a monster of an album; it's definitely one of my favourite ever. 7.0 Welcome To New York 10.0 Blank Space 11.0 Style 9.0 Out Of The Woods 8.0 All You Had To Do Was Stay 9.75 Shake It Off 7.75 I Wish You Would 10.0 Bad Blood (definitely a '*.*' last chorus moment) 8.0 Wildest Dreams 8.0 How You Get The Girl 8.0 This Love (a solid 12.5 for the middle 8 though) 8.5 I Know Places 5.5 Clean 9.5 Wonderland 8.5 You Are In Love 10.0 New Romantics I am SO rooting for Style as the next single (even though it's pretty much a cert). I would very much like to see Bad Blood released, I think that will be the moment that she solidifies her pop move. It seems very unlikely from Taylor, but if she released a rapper remix of it (JAY Z or Iggy?) specifically for US Rhythmic radio, I could see Bad Blood becoming one of, if not her biggest radio hit to date in America. New Romantics seems like a fitting late-summer-early-autumn follow up to Bad Blood with Wildest Dreams (and that X Factor final performance) seeing her and her album sales through Q4 2015. I will never understand why those three bonus tracks were ever put as bonus tracks; I ideally would replace HYGTG, This Love and Clean for all of them. Welcome to New York has grown on me but it's still a very dull opening. That being said, it seems fitting for her fairly-publicised move to New York between Red and 1989; so imo it's a fitting concept backed up by a mediocre song. That and "Clean" aside, this is most definitely her Teenage Dream. I mean that in both senses in that it's a STELLAR pop album and will almost certainly produce a number of hit singles, keeping her ubiquitous in 2015.

  22. I think Bang Bang is the definition of a gift-card-beneficiary having three acts all with fanbases containing tweens/teens who will purchase the song with their gift cards (Ariana the most out of three, but still the combined effort of all of their fanbases is the reason for it being so high!) The same goes for Bo$$, with Fifth Harmony having a tween/teen fanbase that may not have their own debit card yet and have to rely on gift cards to purchase their songs!
