Christmas songs should be separated into sub category of retro songs - if not banned from charts as it deviates normal chart As every song after few weeks of absence in the charts Chart should be all about NEW songs only IMO

Whats the problem for Apple to swallow Spotify? They are 100's times bigger in terms of market value? With Spotify never profitable and Apple profits of well over 100 billion dollars yearly? Its only a matter of time unless they already not bouying shares before takeover?

So Ed will release six albums at the same time consisting of three songs each and this stupid rule is bypassed easily BTW Calvin Harris claimed album era is gone and he will release singles only I think album era is gone also so this rule is to be modified

I think Major Lazer can throw this song down unless Adele is back. If Bieber, Ed can't see hard to name anyone could be real threat Does anyone know when Major gonna release something for summer maybe?

ok i will find this paper and scan it as i remember this statement correctly it is either Metro or Sun Showbiz page we will have a laugh of them then

Liam said he will not pursue solo career i have this statement documented in newspaper site somewhere

Trying to understand what an author means but no success The fact he even broke his complicated 'assumptions ' by rewarding CB as for number one debut despite it was barely top 5 does not help either :banghead:

If they want song to chart highly they put it everywhere - as simple as that Taking song down is a best way to kill the song before it charts as no one had opportunity to listen it Who do they think they are Drake? LOL

This video contains content from UMG, who has blocked it in your country on copyright grounds. All the best then The Vamps and their stupid recording company in 'conquering the charts'

Apple is too expensive 1 pound per song is huge price for now How anyone can expect Steps to pay for playlists ebntry when they made new album BECAUSE they were skint? And this is what I read on this website in chart summary few weeks ago

So why songs from youtube when there is not video but audio only are not included? Those are open for one reason only - AUDIO There are numerous examples of those song - to be honest minority of songs have no music video or video is released much after song release Youtube does not pay anyone they only accept the money :) I rather smell Spotify pays to OCC and other parts of industry to keep youtube and others off the chart buzz

People interested in videos using rather porn websites Ask anyone why does he lvisit Youtube - for sound or video Check how 'popouar' are videos with no sound only - negative ratio of 97% and full of haters comments People visiting youtube want toi listen to the sound without regostration hassle They have song available straight away and simplicity is the reason they visit Tube

Streaming is hugely manipulated by Spotify not allowing to skip the songs. Only paid users streams should count therefore. Otherwise people listen to songs they have been put artificially onto the playlist and they can do nothing about it

LOL Price Tag higher than Blondie - Maria which is comparable hit to Cher - Believe lets say? Big LOL

What is the point of voting when we cant see what we vote for/on?

is it possible to hear those releases lets say in torrents? like in music industry

When Gangnam Style was number one in UK lol I remember him going something like 3-3-3-3-3 etc but not number one

Yes one or two skips per day is really a lot Do you have specific data confirming your words about 'FAR' domination of Spotify over lets say Deezer? And many others? Are the other platforms not included into chart at all?

There is no way to skip the song unless you are premium user Free users can not skip song Spotify desperately need money to keep afloat as they keep losing money so they take money from everywhere like Ryanair including taking money under the table from certain record companies BTW why we only hear about 'Spotify Spotify, Spotify, Iunes ITunes' etc There are plenty of other services (TuneIn, Deezer snd many others) #Do they pay this forum and OCC for being 'exclusive'?

Congratulations Joseph Styles This is your time :) Song is very good although it is not David Bowie/Queen but rather Bruno Mars/ Robbie Williams combination (Angels + When I was your man) Still a great piece of music

youtube is even bigger coontribution as it usually gathers more customer /viewer focus than streaming play. Besides youtube is not only about video, there arre loads of songs with audio or lyrics only. How this can not be counted?

But I wonder why Ed Sheeran or any artists are on top for so long? If I was a Sheeran fan I would most probably buy his record in the first week and would be absent on the market in the following ones. So do his fan buy a new CD every week or what?

dont call it number one hastily. There were sooo many 'sure number one's' like Coldplay vs Chainsmokers or Galway Girl. Shape of you hits right button straight away and is much bigger hit than this one week anomaly

Spotify has too big influence on charts

I think there went money under the table from Spotify to be recognised a 'leader' and a 'tout' in the industry. Someone discovered the same guy sits in OCC and Spotify I think its all corrupted how youtube does not count but PAID streaming site - not available to everyone and not so popular yes
