Aren't Mcfly on Daybreak/Lorraine /This Morning during the week? I would expect them to do atleast one of those shows. Or maybe they will wait for next week to promote the Greatest Hits.

Come on Stooshe! I'm still a bit surprised they went with this as their third single, but it's a great cover of a great song. Nice to see Mcfly doing so well, although I have to say I'm very susprised to see it doing this well. Little Mix should have been a bit higher by now. Weird to see Example flopping so far. I do like it, although it's definitely not one of his best songs.

Lawson, Rebecca and especially Tyler should all do much better, three great songs.

Come on Tyler! He has done the National Lottery yesterday, but not any other promo as far as I know. Still a bit surprised Radio 1 haven't playlisted Single Tear as well.

Come On Florence! Great to see the Calvin remix doing so well.

I didn't know the single was getting a release today! Come on Lianne, such a great song and deserves some success. Is Ben Montague anywhere in the top 1000? Another brilliant song that deserves to do very well.

Come on, Jessie Ware! Wildest Moments is such an amazing song. I'm surprised it's already being released actually. It's not exactly an on air, on sale release as the song premiered a few weeks ago but it's still very new and hasn't been played a lot by the radio stations. The video is out tomorrow, apparently.

Brilliant to see Tyler's version of Higher Love so high already! Wasn't expecting that. I really want to buy his version, but it's not on Dutch iTunes unfortunately! Not surprising, but still :P His old album is doing very well in the album chart as well, but is any the songs charting in the singles top 1000? Great to see Bo Bruce appearing as well. And absolutely amazing to see Cheryl at #1 :D

I'm very surprised to see that Bo is still climbing, great to see though.

That's amazing for Bo Bruce! Wasn't expecting to see her EP that high. Really disappointing to see Alexandra so low though, although it's not surprising after the flop of Let It Go. I listened to a couple of songs of the album and Between The Sheets and Fire should have been the first two singles. Both are much stronger than Elephant and Let It Go.

Delighted to see Sing at #1, it really is a stunning song and deserves all the sales it's getting. Especially after watching the documentary about it, Gary put so much effort in it. He is such an amazing guy.

Come on Dot! Quite a lot of new songs out this week, but Overload is the only song I actually like. Don't like Scream at all and both DJ Fresh and Nelly's new songs are very disappointing. And Leanne isn't much better. I thought Payphone would be out as well. What are they waiting for? There has been a fake version charting all week and they performed on The Voice yesterday. When is the official release date? Really happy to see Read All About It back in the top 100 as well.

The Voice UK
I'm still a bit surprised that Leanne won. Out of the four finalists, she was definitely my least favourite. She has a good voice, but that's it. And she was shouting way too much as well. Tyler, Bo and Vince are all artists with a very individual sound and style and Leanne doesn't stand out for me. And to rank last night's performance (I won't do the third performance as we've seen them before and they were almost the same). 01. Bo Bruce and Danny 02. Tyler James 03. Bo Bruce 04. Vince and Jessie 05. Vince Kidd 06. Tyler James and Will.I.Am 07. Leanne Mitchell and Tom Jones 08. Leanne Mitchell Tyler has been my favourite since his very first audition and I still think he is the best contestant, although his OMG performance was a bit disappointing. It's beyond me why Will chose that song for him as it's so not his style. If Will wanted to pick one of his own songs, he should have picked something like Don't Lie or Meet Me Halfway. Bo's duet with Danny was by far the best performance, it was absolutely brilliant! Wasn't that impressed with Leanne. I still want a studio version of Tyler's Higher Love. So glad he performed it again. And I loved the coaches performance with their medley, it was go good. Ed and Maroon 5 both did a great performance as well.

I can't believe Lawson have dropped so much in the last day! Very disappointing to see as it's a great song. Glad to see Gary in the top 10 now though. I actually love that song, which surprises me as I really disliked the other Military Wives song. Just shows how amazing Gary Barlow is.

What is happening with Alexandra? I know she hasn't had much radio airplay, but still. You would expect a brand new Alexandra Burke song to do a lot better. She has done quite a lot of promo for it as well.

Very surprised to see that Loreen song so high! I remember all the talk about her on here, but never thought it would do this well. I don't watch Eurovision, but I have listened a few times to the song now and while it's pretty decent it doesn't deserve to do this well (in my opinion ofcourse). Go Lawson though! Great to see them in the top 10 already. Hope Alexandra can climb some more as well. I was not expecting it to be a big hit, but it's really underperforming now!

The Wanted vs. fun.
As much as I love We Are Young, I would prefer the see Chasing The Sun at #1.

Cheryl was absolutely amazing! I couldn't care less if not everything was live, her performance was just incredible. 01. Tyler James 02. Bo Bruce 03. Vince Kidd 04. Max Milner 05. Jaz Ellington 06. Leanne Mitchell 07. Becky Hill 08. Ruth Brown I have to say that Jaz and Leanne really surprised me, never been a big fan of both of them but I really enjoyed their performances.
