Good song!

Hi Ronald! How are you today and how was your week end? thank you so much for the link and for the song SOMETHING ABOUT YOU...Great song but fantastic video as well!! I like RUDIMENTAL but never heard of ELDERBROOK...BTW do you like our UK number 1 album this week? I am so pleased! I have just discovered 2 weeks ago DERMOT KENNEDY..Love his new single OUTNUMBERED...Massive success in Ireland...I was expecting LIZZO to reach the top 5 single in Scotland this week as she had a massive jump last week but she dropped from 6 to 13!! Have a great day...

Had a great weekend Thierry, tiny school reunion with friends from primary school. Hope you had a great weekend too. I will look into DERMOT later today (tonight). I have heard of him but have not listened to his music yet. Shame about LIZZO, I thought she would go up a couple of places too. Have a great Monday!

People forgot that he is pedo.. Anyway if tomjones can enter he can enter too

Awesome song! :D

Interestingly 10000 Hours is actually #7 on the real chart

I'm so pleased that the debut album of Dermot Kennedy landed at #1 in the UK this week, and that finally his great song "Power Over Me" has charted in the UK Singles Chart !!!

The real chart? No, I'm pretty sure it's #19 on the official UK top 100 chart.

Dance Monkeys made it to 11 weeks at number 1 down here so if I never here it again I'll be very happy. I'd love to see rode it get to number one eventually in the UK since taste (make it shake) and Ladbroke grove won't be getting there.

I love 10,000 hours it's such a sweet and beautiful song (from the ground up is one of my favourite songs of all time), I'm seeing Dan and Shay open for Shawn Mendes next Wednesday and I'm pretty much only going for them.

Hey Brandon! How's your week been? :)

I'm really pleased for Dermot Kennedy too! Not only did he get his first Top 10 hit in the UK this week, but his debut album went to #1 & he was able to debut two other songs in chart as well, including the long overdue 'Power Over Me'!

I absolutely loved his debut album, as my most recent Crown Note chart shows.

That's for updating me on the latest South African singles chart! I do think 'Dance Monkey' will definitely be a future #1 in your country, probably within the next week or two. 'Memories' is probably heading for the Top 10 in the next chart too.

Lower down in the chart, it's interesting to see 'Shameless' in the chart, but 'Liar' is nowhere to be seen! Not many countries where the former is more popular than the latter.

I'm guessing country music isn't that big in SA, unless maybe it's local? Either way, like you, I love seeing '10,000 Hours' here too!

Finally, I'm also pleased to see 'Trampoline' here! Is this because of the original or the remix with ZAYN?

Hey Ebony! How's it going? :)

Yeah, I saw that 'Dance Monkey' broke the record for longest #1 song by an Australian artist last week, as well as the longest #1 by any female solo artist this week.

I guess at this point where you are, even people who like the song are getting tired of it, while those who didn't like it to begin are just finding it unbearable by now. I imagine it's also one of those hits that getting played multiple times every hour on Australian radio, right?

Hopefully 'Ride It' will make it, but 'Dance Monkey' seems too dominant across the board to be shifted by anything at the moment. I see it staying there for at least another month unless there's a big album release before then. It would've been cool seeing 'Ladbroke Grove' go to #1, given how much of a slow burner that song's been in the UK, although ACR has to be coming for it soon.

The only point we really disagree on is 'Taste [Make It Shake]', where I was really disappointed with it from the start, so I'm glad that had such a massive fall this week!

I'm pleased that we have mutual thoughts on '10,000 Hours' though! I've always loved Dan + Shay too, but I was equally impressed by how well JB could actually pull off a country song.

Agreed on all points! :)

What are your favourite tracks from the album?

Another thing to mention is that, while 'Outnumbered' enters the Top 10 for the first time in the new chart, it's likely going to climb even further in the coming weeks.

You mean the sales chart? It's #19 on the real chart.

Hie Piran Country music isn't so popular in South Africa not even an inch ;local dominates . Our sales based on streams,airplay radio and downloads YouTube, streaming platforms like Spotify and radio request. I was surprised that Liar isn't so popular here but I like both as for myself .It has been bubbling under Liar
.As for 10000 hrs it's a surprise it's because Justin bieber they love him in south africa and the song it's like pop/country mix .As for Trampoline it's because of Zayn remix yes. As for Radio Chart we tired of Senorita every station every second you here it. As for Dance monkey it's selling massive on downloads /buying on iTunes. and every radio station it's picking up was massive it stands a big chance to knock off Sam Smith. as for number 1 next week contenders Maroon 5 eyeing because on streams it's looking good top 3 trending on YouTube
Usher and black coffee could also because on radio charts biggest gainer considering the time of release. But Dance monkey stand a bigger chance to take the top position.

So it's essentially similar to the Billboard charts in the US? I personally disagree with including airplay in an official chart, since outside of requests, it's far less representative of popularity than all other chart metrics.

South Africa has a bubbling under chart too? I've always thought it's a bit of a shame that the UK charts don't either. I think our national charts go to a Top 200, although you have to pay to see those.

Even with the ZAYN remix, 'Trampoline' hasn't really made much of an impact over here at all, probably because it's a different kind of sound compared to everything else in the charts right now.

'Senorita' is starting to get really overplayed over here to the point where even I'm starting to get tired of it, which has to take a lot given that I rated the song a 10/10 when I reviewed it on here!

Regarding Camila, I'm really happy about 'Shameless' & 'Liar's success worldwide too! I think her next album is definitely going to #1 in a majority of countries worldwide. :)

I don't listen to the radio much but whenever I do they play dance monkey . I was overseas for much of its chart run but even I'm sick of it

Indeed, I was referring to the sales chart

Oh, that's cool! Where did you go? :)

I went to France for a week back in July, but not travelled elsewhere much recently.

I was in South Africa, Botswana and Zimbabwe, it was amazing but I won't be going any where soon.
Very jealous of you Brits being so close to everything

I guess we're a bit distant from the rest of Europe politically at the moment, but yeah, I like where we live geographically.

Australia's still an awesome country that I'd love to visit one day though... well, minus all the snakes & spiders! :D

Haha, I'm from a farm originally and yeah I saw a few spiders (they don't scare me though) but not too many snakes which is good since all reptiles terrify me.

Over here, we (thankfully) don't have any poisonous spiders. The worst ones only leave a small bite, but nothing serious beyond that.

Unfortunately, where you might not be so lucky is with snakes! We only really see them out in the summer & there are three different species, but the adder is the most dangerous one of these!

Fortunately, they'll rarely attack humans (they'll dash off like 99% of the time), so I'd say we're a fairly safe country in terms of wild animals overall, haha! :)

Dermot is very underrated in the UK..still glad he is huge in Ireland...he deserves more success to be honest/..He is very talented..and he has an amazing voice!
