glowingember Posted May 29, 2012 Report Share Posted May 29, 2012 It certainly took a long time for 'We Are Young' to climb to no. 1 in UK.Why was it released so late?It was no.1 in US some weeks ago.I like The Wanted...they are so boy-band-ish.Picking up the pieces - nice. Hopefully it'll hit the top 5. After all, tomorrow is another day. ~ S O'Hara Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just bought Now 81 and heard .It was in 2011 Dec that it charted.There's a bit of 60s swing to it which I like.If you like track #6 of disc 2,I think you will also like the track below,or track #12 on the same disc too...Yup...the 2 tracks are similar in style.:-) thanks for highlighting this track. I haven't reached Track 12 yet.Somehow the group reminds me of Destiny's Child.Ok another similar song is Diamond Rings which reached the top 10 in 2009.It's Chipmunk feat Emeli Sande (among the three songs, this is my fave)[media=] glowingember 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

glowingember Posted June 19, 2012 Report Share Posted June 19, 2012 Thanks for the Stooshe and Jedward's new singles, Steppenwolf.I'll look for both their CDs when I have the chance to go to HMV.So far, Stooshe's singles have been the retro-Amy-Winehouse style. They are modernised in terms of looks and there are some hooks to their songs, though not as great as Winehouse's. Jedward can't sing well but I like their determination and eagerness to make it big. In addition, they are adorable. After all, tomorrow is another day. ~ S O'Hara Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

glowingember Posted July 17, 2012 Report Share Posted July 17, 2012 Thanks for the chart update.I like Florence single and video. She has not been disappointing with her performance, videos and singles. Ethereal. Hmmm... I've mixed feeling over Elton's new song. Not quite used to the new production but I guess it's a good direction.Yayyy...Little Boots! This song is more accessible. She reminds me of a cross between Roisin Murphy and Sophie Ellis-Bextor.Ok for me...I suddenly felt nostalgic over Texas.Read from a live journal of a person running around the house when this song was on and when he finally found the source of the music, the song ends with Sharleen Spiteri echoing 'stop'. Another gem for me is Insane After all, tomorrow is another day. ~ S O'Hara Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not quite used to the new production but I guess it's a good direction.Elton John vs Pnau are storming towards Number 1 according to today's Official Albums Chart Update.Pnau is an Australian electronic duo who frontman is Nick Littlemore of the 2009 side project Empire Of The Sun. We Are The People - Empire Of The Sun Elton John reputedly signed the pair after being taken aback with their 2007 track Wild Strawberries,Wild Strawberries - Pnau ...and now Elton’s original masters have been unlocked and reworked by the duo with added loops, samples and their own material too,to create a revolutionary new collection of Elton-approved interpretations.
