Yeah, I saw them :lol: but has that actually made ppl buy the record ??

The song was released 3½ weeks ago and it's not as if the video was just released, so why the sudden jump this week?

Where? I've looked through the last page (Aug 12th onwards) and I'm not seeing it.

Erasure sold 7,000 copies - nearly 2,000 more than the UK :o . Who knew they had more fans stateside :lol:

How is this song still in the main charts at #61 ??

I keep meaning to ask this, but why has this been in the iTunes Top 100 for the last 3 weeks?

54 weeks on the Hot 100.

It's like a mickey take of all those autotune records that were being released. I just remember thinking "what was she thinking" :lol: Then again, she wanted to be relevant again.

Oh yeah, forgot about Zedd :lol:

Top 7.

We'll have to agree to disagree. I can think of other Cher songs that are classics, but "Believe" is not one of them :lol:

it's pure cheese :lol: .

Not sure if anyone would class "Believe" as a classic :lol: Sarah McLachlan's "Angel" maybe.

Bit of a surprise :o

full Hot 100 and bubbling under added.

Hold onto your hat, I think you'll find we're in the middle of a country month and a half, so to speak :lol: It was Lee Brice (#5) and Dustin Lynch (#8) two weeks ago, Tim McGraw (#3) and George Strait (#4) on last week chart, Kenney Chesney (#2) this week, Blake Shelton (expected #1) and Lady Antebellum on next week's chart, Jason Aldean the week after that, and Florida Georgia Line the week after that.

Depending how much rounding up or down there was, it could be even less than 1k.

"Jennifer Hudson" (2008) debuted at #2 on 217k, and "I Remember Me" (2011) debuted at #2 on 165k, so not great. But I don't recall there being any hits off this current album.

Because the original is the one selling and has more chart points than the remix.
