For the second week running, when I click on the link in the article about Top 40 albums update, it goes to the singles. Frustrating.

Finally the charts are getting more new entries & big climbers. I love how 'Starving' could be a Top 5 hit on Friday & 'Shout To My Ex' will be much higher than #14 by then (maybe even a #1 debut). It hasn't even been 24 hours since Little Mix performed on the X Factor & their new song has more than a 3:1 lead on iTunes over 'Say You Won't Let Go'! :)

Well I fell in love with it at 1st listen! :)
If you search for it on YouTube, you should be able to find their live performance of it on the X Factor last night.

Yeah that's right, Zayn dumped Perrie by text if I remember correctly, so I consider this to be Perrie's revenge song! ;) LOL
Well the response has been mostly positive, but not everyone is happy. If you listen to it & remember GRL's 'Ugly Heart', then they sound very similar. It's like 'Say You Won't Let Go' & 'The Man Who Can't Be Moved' all over again...

listened to it- it's good but not amazing. itll grow on me though I'm sure
I remember ugly heart- GRL broke up soon after as one of their members died didn't they? not really sure about the comparison- maybe ill listen to ugly heart again and check.

Yeah Simone from GRL actually committed suicide in the week that 'Ugly Heart' was released. :/
They did break up shortly after, but the only reason I mentioned the comparison is I reading something about it earlier.

REALLY? Why would a newly popular popstar commit suicide after one of the best mments of her life?

If I remember correctly, she had some big problems with her personal life, particularly financial ones. However it seems very strange for that to happen when you've had your debut single released though. :/
