iTunes Weekly Thread W/C 23rd March 2014
Little Mix accounts as well as One Direction keep posting links to iTunes encouraging their own fans to buy the song. Think their Management team are behind it.

The Hozier song really is superb and I hope becomes a huge hit. 5SOS falling already was to be expected really.

iTunes Weekly Thread W/C 23rd March 2014
I hate that 5sos song. One Direction have been pimping them for weeks on Twitter and encouraging fans to buy the song. Anything but them for #1 this week.

iTunes Weekly Thread W/C 16th February 2014
Really pleased to see Sam Smith at #1 and I love the chorus too.

The multiple version issue
I would say yes too. The Vamps are one of the worst offenders at the moment. It really clutters up the chart and fans can feel pressured into buying every version with encouragement from the band themselves tweeting all the time to make sure they buy every different version. I would limit it to 3 versions maximum.

Really loving the Neon Jungle song. Hope it charts high than the Vamps one with all their multiple versions.

iTunes Weekly Thread W/C 19th January 2014
To get them an inflated chart position? Poor fans end up having to pay more money to get all versions. Their Twitter site has gone into overdrive promoting them all. Hopefully it wont work.

One Direction - Midnight Memories
Love all three of those songs. Midnight Memories is a really good choice but I think Happily would have been a better one. That song would smash.

iTunes Weekly Thread W/C 1st December 2013
1D are doing extremely well to be still selling well after five weeks compared to some of their previous singles. Glad to see it do so well as it is one of their best. Love both the Leona and Kelly Christmas songs and hope both do well. Heart radio has played the Kelly one today.

One Direction - Midnight Memories
Billboard and LA Times critics have given the album near rave reviews with LA Times calling it the most convincing Rock album of the year! :o

iTunes Weekly Thread W/C 17th November 2013
Unashamedly love the Midnight Memories song. Its like a huge 80's stadium Rock anthem.
-
One Direction - Midnight Memories
Happily has to be the next single. Loving Diana, You And I, Strong and Through The Dark too. Totally different album to what I was expecting - in a good way.

Predict: One Direction - Story Of My Life
I love this. :wub: Great thumping guitar beat. Isnt released until Monday with no airplay so far but the fanbase may be big enough for it to go Top 3. Can see it hanging around for a while though.

One Direction - Midnight Memories
^ Wow at Liam Payne there. :o Interesting Cover with only Harry smiling. ( the real Cover that is )

iTunes Weekly Thread W/C 6th October 2013
So pleased for James Blunt. Seemed the 'cool' thing for a while to not like him but the song is really good. Music channels need to show the video though. Most have ignored it completely.

iTunes Weekly Thread W/C 6th October 2013
Great to see so many new entries this week. Shocked at how well James Blunt is doing but its a really good song. He is a guest on the Graham Norton show on Friday too.

Move • 1st single
Nowhere near as good as Wings. Chorus is messy. Just lacking something.
-
The Wanted - Show Me Love (America)
Very poor from them and easily one of their worst songs. Cant see this doing any better than We Own The Night.
-
Union J - Beautiful Life
It is just so 'average'. Nothing special at all.
-
The Wanted - We Own The Night
Just cant get the Some Nights rip-off they have done out of my head now particularly on the chanting parts. They seem to want to try and copy any really popular song that has done well in America.
-
The Wanted - We Own The Night
Don't get the enthusiasm for this. Sounds exactly like Some Nights part 2.
-
Olly Murs - Right Place Right Time
Like Troublemaker this sounds like a Maroon 5 song so I can see it doing quite well in the US should he release it there too.
-
One Direction - Best Song Ever
Ed Drewett seems really enthusiastic about this song on Twitter. Strange to see him writing a song for One Direction after writing for The Wanted on a few of their songs. Look forward to hearing it.
-
The Wanted - Walks Like Rihanna
This sounds so dated. Its as if One True Voice had made a comeback.
-
The Wanted - Walks Like Rihanna
Definitely think thats how it went down.They reek of desperation. Guess they got bored of badmouthing other acts. Really thought people were joking about the lyrics and song title. Horrendous - though I am strangely looking forward to hearing this. ;)
