Rudimental sold 107,000 copies to get to the number 1 spot this week. Daft Punk sold 50,000 copies in 48 hours. I think they could do quite well next week with radio airplay.

Shaun 21-04-2013 10:50 PM

:amazed: pretty good. Shall probably stick in the top five regardless.

Z 21-04-2013 10:50 PM

Yeah I see this going to #1 definitely

Shaun 21-04-2013 10:52 PM

When do charts close for the week btw? Is it midnight Saturday? (Just cause you said 48 hours and it was released midnight Thursday IIRC)

Mrluvaluva 21-04-2013 11:02 PM

The chart week runs from 00:01 Sunday to midnight Saturday. It was released @ 00.01 on Friday so had Friday and Saturday sales.

Love this, its so funky! :dance:

Glad it hasn't gone straight to number one, it would burn out quicker. It'll probably hang in the top 5 for weeks and creep up at some point (hopefully - not great when you get beaten to No 1 by Leann Rimes AND Rudimental) :amazed:

Jords 23-04-2013 05:25 PM

...I love it now

Shaun 23-04-2013 10:36 PM

still at #1 on iTunes, looking good for #1 on Sunday...

King Gizzard 23-04-2013 10:43 PM

i don't really get the hype :shrug:

Jordan. 24-04-2013 12:19 PM

:love:

Mrluvaluva 24-04-2013 03:24 PM

And so the mashup's begin...


Shaun 24-04-2013 03:54 PM

this would've been the perfect MJ comeback :(

*mazedsalv** 24-04-2013 04:29 PM

#1 on the Update Chart and has been on top of the Itunes since it's release.

According to the last 3 days (Sunday, Monday, Tuesday) it has sold 60,000. So far it has sold 110,000 because they sold 50k in the first 2 days. By the end of the week I predict it will sell over 100,000 in this first full week. If they achieve this, then they would have sold 150,000+ in just 9 days!

Loukas 25-04-2013 10:22 AM

I love this song!! Should deffo get number 1!!!

Sam Sparro's version is also very good! It's just an amazing song

Mrluvaluva 25-04-2013 09:41 PM

I am not that keen on Sam Sparro's version. It's ok. I quite like this mash up with JT..


Shaun 25-04-2013 11:04 PM

still #1 on iTunes, almost certainly going to grab it on Sunday <3

Mrluvaluva 25-04-2013 11:36 PM

Kinda funny...


Shaun 25-04-2013 11:39 PM

shredded songs :love:

*mazedsalv** 28-04-2013 06:04 PM

Sold 155k this week :shocked:

In total it has sold 205k in 9 days. Beast!

I think this is brilliant.

Mrluvaluva 28-04-2013 11:13 PM

Daughter are really good. Elena Tonra has a fantastic voice.

Black Dagger 28-04-2013 11:14 PM

Great cover, need to listen to more of Daughter.

Mrluvaluva 28-04-2013 11:22 PM

There's another couple of tracks posted here.

Shaun 08-05-2013 12:21 PM

likely to grab a third week at #1, but can see Macklemore grabbing it next week.

Saph 08-05-2013 12:35 PM

I don't like this song, but I'd rather this be #1 than macklemore..

*mazedsalv** 08-05-2013 04:24 PM

The song is unstoppable, It has so far sold 427,000 in less than 3 weeks. By Sunday it will be over half a million!

Shaun 08-05-2013 05:36 PM

I love Peter Serafinowicz :laugh: that video was cool

Daft Punk have stayed at number one for a third week with 'Get Lucky'.

The electronic duo broke the 100,000 copies barrier for a third week running, shifting 123,000 copies in its fourth week in the chart, and just under the half-million sales mark.

I must be the only one who isn't getting the hype around this song. I couldn't even stomach 30 seconds of it.

Must be weird not having a soul Glenn :idc:

Glenn. 13-05-2013 07:02 PM

It's better than you would think actually :idc:

Shaun 26-06-2013 09:56 AM

Daft Punk's 'Get Lucky' has become the first single released in 2013 to sell a million copies in the UK.

The disco hit, which features Pharrell Willliams and Chic's Nile Rodgers, is the 136th single to shift a million in the the 60-year history of the UK Singles Chart. It crossed the 1m mark in its 69th day of release, the Official Charts Company announced today (June 28).

"The fact that 'Get Lucky' has sold a million copies in the UK is one thing, but to do it in 69 days?! I'm awestruck," Nile Rodgers told OfficialCharts.com. "When I think how it happened, too, with people who I like a lot, that we just decided to go into the studio and do something… And then it turns out like this? It's absolutely remarkable, because no-one was prepared for this!"

Continuing, Rodgers went on to explain that the global success of 'Get Lucky' is unlike anything he's experienced in his five-decade recording career. "I've had big records and Number Ones; I have had records that were Number One in the United States but nowhere else… I've had records which have done well [in the UK], but not in the States. But to have this ubiquitous record, that is a hit everywhere… It's amazing to me! I'm out on the road and I can hear it wherever I go. I'm flabbergasted!" he said.
wow. 3 months.

trawling thru old threads and saw this and it got me thinking about some of the great covers I've seen of this on youtube.

My two faves


This girl is very talented. Some excellent guitar play on this.


Love this jazzy version. It always makes me smile.
