Friday Chart Predictions
It should be a criminal offence to hijack the charts like Ed Sheeran has. Can't anyone 'cancel' him to deny him #1?

What was the last single you purchased on CD or cassette?
Last CD single has got to be "God Only Knows" which is a charity single for Children in Need back in 2014. Tesco thankfully stocked it. Non-charity it's got to be "Broken Arrow" by Pixie Lott. Last Cassette single, I think was "Shut Up!" by Kelly Osbourne and that's going back to 2002/3!!

Bargain Bin - Black Friday
I visited HMV Bristol City Centre today - there was a small section with Madge's current album £4,99 and her last album £2,99. I did pick up Toni Braxton's latest "Sex and Cigarettes" for £2,99 also "Colours" by Walking on Cars also for the same price. I also got "Mamma Mia" soundtrack for the recent movie for £2.99 as well!! I am not sure whether upstairs had any sales on, as I was with my sister, Mum and two kids under 6!

Gabrielle Aplin - Miss You / Miss You 2 (ft. Nina Nesbitt)
SELL OUT - She's doing STIPop (Cheap music for clubs to open your legs too after being on drink and drugs). I do echo it is music to appeal to the lowest common denominator, and I think Tropical House needs banning.

Friday Chart Predictions
Clean Bandit as Christmas #1 sums up how bad 2016 has been musically. There is nothing to it - no personality, and no reedeming features at all. Streaming has biased the charts to fanbases, kids and clubbers. I think the ratio should be 225-1.

Christmas Number One Single Odds
Clean Bandit would be a bad Xmas #1. I'm sick of this zombie-fied tropical dance tripe - it's so bland and boring. Can see why a lot of people don't have a personality, it's this rubbish music. Jo Cox or Mariah for the #1.

Halloween UK Number Ones
Well Cheryl Cole sounds like a banshee :D

Is the streaming conversion rate too generous?
The streaming needs to be altered to 300-1. And 2016 has been TERRIBLE bar Bruno, Emeli, Olly. Too much of this dance shit and all the songs sound the same.
-
Could a Christmas song go to #1 this year?
I think we'll see a normal song #1 (I'd rather NHS than Beiber anyday, even if I do like "Love Yourself" as the only good track of his), as streaming is in favour of who's big and what's popular. I reckon X-Factor, campaigns and John Lewis are confined to the history books now.

If kids in 1963/4 had Spotify...
1984: Pipes of Peace - Paul McCartney (1 week) Girls Just Wanna Have Fun - Cyndi Lauper (2 weeks) Relax - Frankie Goes To Hollywood (9 weeks) 99 Luftbaloons - Nena (1 week) Hello - Lionel Richie (1 week) Against All Odds - Phil Collins (3 weeks) Wake Me Up Before You Go-Go - Wham (2 weeks) Two Tribes - Frankie Goes To Hollywood (12 weeks) Agadoo - Black Lace (1 week) Careless Whisper - George Michael (5 weeks) I Just Called To Say I Love You - Stevie Wonder (5 weeks) Wham - Freedom (2 weeks) Chaka Khan - Feel For You (2 weeks) The Power Of Love - Frankie Goes To Hollywood (2 weeks) Do They Know It's Christmas - Band Aid (5 weeks) This was the year of Frankie Goes To Hollywood and Wham/George Michael. "The Power Of Love" would have added an extra week to it's tally and my favourite of their three #1s. I reckon "Agadoo" would have snuck a week in as the song was popular at the time. Phil Collins would have made the summit too with the amazing "Against All Odds". Don't forget, that Cyndi Lauper song was HUGE.

If kids in 1963/4 had Spotify...
1985: Foreigner - I Want To Know What Love Is (5 weeks) Elaine Paige and Barbara Dickson - I Know Him So Well (5 weeks) Dead or Alive - You Spin Me Right Round (5 weeks) Madonna - Crazy For You (2 weeks) - she'd have achieved it as she was MASSIVE then USA for Africa - We Are The World (1 week) Paul Hardcastle - 19 (8 weeks) The Crowd - You'll Never Walk Alone (2 weeks) Sister Sledge - Frankie (2 weeks) Madonna - Into The Groove (9 weeks) Jennifer Rush - Power of Love (13 weeks) - fits the theme of the year, and this was a massive song Wham - I'm Your Man (2 weeks) - their fanbase was big Whitney Houston - Saving All My Love For You (3 weeks) Shakin Stephens - Merry Christmas Everyone (2 weeks)

If kids in 1963/4 had Spotify...
Am I alone thinking in 2004 Eric Prydz or Eamon would have been 10+ weekers? Those songs were huge! A hypothetical one here from 1979: Village People - YMCA (6 weeks) Blondie - Heart of Glass (5 weeks) Gloria Gaynor - I Will Survive (3 weeks) Art Garfunkel - Bright Eyes (8 weeks) - Yes I think this would have been an even bigger hit - You'd be forgiven as well thinking the song was a Eulogy of the end of the UK as it was #1 the day Maggie got into power. M - Pop Musik (2 weeks) - This would have reached the summit, especially as it was an unusual track. Blondie - Sunday Girl (2 weeks) Tubeway Army - Are Friends Electric (6 weeks) Boomtown Rats - I Don't Like Mondays (4 weeks) Gary Numan - Cars (5 weeks) The Police - Message In A Bottle (4 weeks) Buggles - Video Killed The Radio Star (2 weeks) Blondie - One Way Or Another (2 weeks) Pink Floyd - Another Brick In The Wall (8 weeks) - This would have started 1980 off too 1980/1 - John Lennon would have dominated the whole year - "Starting Over" would have had 5 weeks, I reckon he'd have got Christmas #1 with "War Is Over", "Imagine" about 10-12 weeks and "Woman" another 10 weeks maybe even longer?. I even reckon the "Jealous Guy" cover by Roxy Music would have done a long time too. I reckon also in sympathy Yoko Ono would have probably had a week with "Walking On Thin Ice"

Least Favourite Pixie Lott Single (Round 11)
How the f*** did "Kiss The Stars" with it's cheap Playstation dancebeat get so far?

Lawson - Perspective
I bought the album on release day, and finally had chance to listen to it today. I am very impressed - a more mature direction for the group, and their sound is a lot better - folkish elements with "We Are The Fire" and "When I'm Old", the power-ballad "Lion's Den" and the gorgeous tracks "Only Water" and "Love and War". I've only the standard edition mind, but I'm impressed. Well worth purchasing. Saddest thing is, if they're not getting the exposure then the songs and the album will fail. It may have only sold 2k copies in it's first week, but it shows they have 2k people who like them. Plus just because it's #23 doesn't mean it's awful. If they get dropped and release independently, then at least we can listen to their music.
