How has Girls Like dropped below Lush Life again? :o Expecting Prince to be #5 behind DNCE today, but that's still a great result!

I didn't come here for Beyoncé's album, I came for the chart! :lol: In all seriousness though, I know the tracks deserve to be here based on their sales/streams, but I really don't think those outside the top 25 deserve to get played any more than new entries every other week, especially seeing as most of them are only really here because it's cheaper to buy all the individual tracks than the entire album... And they skipped Disturbed! :angry:

+5 Mike Posner - I Took A Pill In Ibiza +4 Zara Larsson - Lush Life +3 Sia feat. Sean Paul - Cheap Thrills +2 Major Lazer feat. Nyla & Fuse ODG - Light It Up +1 Tinie Tempah feat. Zara Larsson - Girls Like -1 Alan Walker - Faded (really don't want to give this negative points :( ) -2 Lukas Graham - 7 Years -3 Jonas Blue feat. Dakota - Fast Car -4 Rihanna feat. Drake - Work -5 Fifth Harmony feat. Ty Dolla $ign - Work From Home Like everything here other than the bottom two!

On a more serious note, I've been playing that Kygo/Kodaline track on repeat all morning. Hope it becomes a proper single and does big things!

1. Kygo feat. Kodaline - Raging :heart: :heart:

That makes sense, thanks! I hope it doesn't get to #1 when there are so many better songs in the top 10 that could be there.

Mike Posner is going to have to pull quite a way ahead on iTunes to make #1 on Friday, I don't see it happening this week much as I'd like it to! Looks like his only challenge next week will be Fifth Harmony though, don't know how that's taken off so much. :blink:

+5 Zara Larsson - Lush Life +4 Mike Posner - I Took A Pill In Ibiza +3 Coldplay - Hymn For The Weekend +2 Shawn Mendes - Stitches +1 Lukas Graham - 7 Years -1 Adele - When We Were Young -2 Zayn - Pillowtalk -3 Jonas Blue feat. Dakota - Fast Car -4 Rihanna feat. Drake - Work -5 Justin Bieber - Love Yourself I struggle to choose between the top 3!

Oh, I know it's unlikely, but we can always dream!

If any of Hymn For The Weekend, I Took A Pill In Ibiza or Lush Life could be the next #1 I'd be very happy! :D

Glad to see this back! Well done UV, and thanks to Leonardo for running it for so long! :D +5 Zara Larsson - Lush Life +4 Coldplay - Hymn For The Weekend +3 Shawn Mendes - Stitches +2 Little Mix feat. Jason Derulo - Secret Love Song +1 Lukas Graham - 7 Years -1 Zayn - Pillowtalk -2 Justin Bieber - Sorry -3 Jonas Blue feat. Dakota - Fast Car -4 Rihanna feat. Drake - Work -5 Justin Bieber - Love Yourself

I was just thinking, it really shows how much sales have collapsed when Lukas Graham have such a HUGE lead over #2 on iTunes, and yet are still selling well under 100k a week! :(

Don't think I'd mind Pillowtalk being #1 if it wasn't pointlessly capitalised :lol:

So glad What Do You Mean is gone from the top 10, even if it's more bearable for me than his other two songs still in there! :P

I agree Wiggle is awful, but have you heard every song ever made to make the judgment that it's in the top 10 worst? :lol: Greg's Ned Flanders analogy is perfect!

Been addicted to Lush Life all week, hope it can be massive in the coming weeks! :D

+5 Adele - Hello +4 Shawn Mendes - Stitches +3 99 Souls feat. Destiny's Child & Brandy - The Girl Is Mine +2 Major Lazer feat. Nyla & Fuse ODG - Light It Up +1 Jonas Blue feat. Dakota - Fast Car -1 Snakehips feat. Tinashe & Chance The Rapper - All My Friends -2 Justin Bieber - What Do You Mean -3 One Direction - History -4 Justin Bieber - Sorry -5 Justin Bieber - Love Yourself

I could have sworn she'd written more massive songs for other artists too! :o Slightly off-topic but I'd love to see a similar list for Ryan Tedder, he's written a ridiculous number of popular songs!

Oh, I know, just trying to block out the fact that streaming exists for the moment :P

8. Justin Bieber - Love Yourself 15. Justin Bieber - Sorry 26. Justin Bieber - What Do You Mean? Finally going away! :yahoo: On the other hand, there's very little in the top 10 I'd really listen to right now... Zara Larsson to be massive please! :D

+5 Adele - Hello +4 Shawn Mendes - Stitches +3 99 Souls feat. Destiny's Child & Brandy - The Girl Is Mine +2 Sigala feat. Bryn Christopher - Sweet Lovin' +1 Snakehips feat. Tinashe & Chance The Rapper - All My Friends -1 Justin Bieber - What Do You Mean -2 One Direction - History -3 Justin Bieber - Sorry -4 Major Lazer feat. Nyla & Fuse ODG - Light It Up -5 Justin Bieber - Love Yourself Don't like giving a +5 to Adele at this point but there's really nothing else that deserves it for me!

Originally joined on 7th July 2012 (was lurking for over a year before that I believe) UK: will.i.am feat. Eva Simons - This Is Love US: Carly Rae Jepsen - Call Me Maybe

Lorde for me too - until she came along I don't think any #1s had been by artists even close to my age, but now there have been several younger than me :(

So nice to see a top 5 made of mostly new songs at last! :D

Agree with this - people will discover old music at a steady rate as time goes on anyway, because they weren't alive/listening to music when it first came out. The news of an artist's death just leads more people to try out their music after hearing about it, and so many of them buy the music at once, for no other reason than that they like it. If David Bowie's music sold nothing in the few months leading up to his death, then the "bandwagon" arguments would be more credible, but clearly he's quite a good trickle seller anyway.
