iTunes Weekly Thread W/C 27th July 2014
I was just about to post something similar. Why on earth has this flopped so hard? Like you said, it has ever element of a stereotypical hit single. It has a wide appeal, good airplay, not released on a dodgy week etc. yet it's flagging so much! Watch it get 59p'd in the next few days.

PREDICT: G.R.L. - Ugly Heart
I find this song so irritating. The chorus is monotonous and the lyrics are annoying as f***. How many times do they want to say "pretty"? And they look like five random girls who've met on the street - no chemistry between them at all, and they look too old to be making the music they're making. Hope they don't do well. But I think this will be Top 5, sadly.

Oh yes, Think About It is brilliant. I also like the weird Get Lucky cover on that album too. Pretty much all of the rest of the album besides the singles is crap imo

Predict: Kiesza "Giant In My Heart"
#9... Then will drop fast

iTunes Weekly Thread W/C 27th July 2014
I think this shows Naughty Boy isn't as huge a producer as we may have been led to expect with the success of La La La. La La La is genuinely one of my favourite songs EVER, and I really love 'Home' too - but besides those two, his songs aren't really all that. 'Wonder' and 'Lifted' suffice, but other than that, he's not that great really is he. He licked Emeli Sande's arse too much before his album came out, and when his album did actually come out, it turned out to be really crap.

SOON?! This Naughty Boy track has been around for three months now. He first uploaded it to his soundcloud at the end of April. This release has been soooo long over due. I would LOVE Zhu to be #1 this week as I am obsessed with "Faded". Will be very disappointed if Magic! get it.

iTunes Weekly Thread W/C 20th July 2014
Of course there are things more irritating in life. What a ludicrous statement to make. All I was doing was saying that your overly colourful and over frequent updates, on two songs that we are all fully aware of the progress on already, were starting to hinder my enjoyment of this thread, and I (correctly) assumed that others felt the same way. If you're so offended by such criticism then I suggest you don't post in Internet forums in the future.

I can't be the only one a bit sick of all these multicoloured Cheryl/Rude updates now? Sorry

Just heard that Zhu track for the first time and I f***ing love it. If that gets to #1 it'll be one of my favourite number ones of the year for sure.

Predict: Pixie Lott - Lay Me Down + 'Pixie Lott'
Whatever happens, she won't have a recording contract this time next year.

New Release Schedule: Monday 21 July
It's cos it's the absolute best song on the album by a country mile! Also, Gorgon City - Unmissable is apparently out on September 29th.

Predict: Ariana Grande - Break Free (feat. Zedd)
Top 5, I really like it

iTunes Weekly Thread W/C 20th July 2014
All I care about this week is that Charli XCX goes Top 10 at least. Would also like to see MK do well. Cheryl/MAGIC I couldn't give two shits about!

Not this remix though

iTunes Weekly Thread W/C 13th July 2014
My Head Is A Jungle is great, the extended version is better though, even though it's about 7 minutes long Also, just heard the Nico & Vinz song for the first time. We really are entering a phase of reggae/dancehall songs being popular aren't we?

Sales Predicta - Crazy Stupid Release Date vs. Rude
Cheryl 110k Rude 128k

iTunes Weekly Thread W/C 13th July 2014
Greg James played it earlier and gave it/her a rave review afterwards, saying she is a brilliant artist and that Giant In My Heart will be a big hit this summer. Could explain a few extra sales.

iTunes Weekly Thread W/C 13th July 2014
Rude is such an irritating song. Crazy Stupid Love is also f***ing annoying. It's a shame that it's these two tracks that are fighting it out.

#11 Ella Eyre - If I Go Really hope she can cling onto Top 10 by Sunday. I think she'll enter at 11 sadly.

What an utterly ludicrous excuse

Oh I would absolutely CACKLE if she misses #1 thanks to streaming.

iTunes Weekly Thread W/C 13th July 2014
I know you're being sarcastic, but she actually got married weeks ago... yet only announced it this weekend. Announcing your surprise marriage to a man you've only known for three months, the week before your comeback single, I think that SCREAMS publicity stunt. I see through Cheryl Cole. She's an arsehole.

iTunes Weekly Thread W/C 13th July 2014
Just think, if Jess Glynne had released this week, she'd be #1 no trouble.

Radio 1 • Track of the Day
I just can't make up my mind about Giant In My Heart. I definitely like it, but I don't think I LOVE it yet. I feel like it's lacking something. I reckon someone will release a remix of it that will be much better than the original. Gorgon City did a great remix of Hideaway, maybe they can do the same with this one.

iTunes Weekly Thread W/C 13th July 2014
I love If I Go but feel it's a weak single. She needed something with more power for her proper debut single. Hope it at least goes Top 20. URL Badman I hope at least makes top 200... #1 I couldn't care less this week. As long as it's something different to will.i.am!
