Three Word Chart: 5th May 2013

Your at a glance guide to the UK Top Ten.

Here at Revued, we like a challenge.  In this weekly article we’re going to listen to the top 10 singles in the UK and review them in three words.  If you’re lucky (and the chart is especially terrible) we may even offer a palette cleanser by way of a song that isn’t hateful.  We also watched the videos so we’ll link those if Vevo will let us.  We may go wildly off topic, we may surprise ourselves; let’s get started:

10. Disclosure (ft. Eliza Doolittle) – You & Me

JH – Mac Daddy died.
AK – From Kriss Kross?

9. Duke Dumont (ft. A*M*E) – Need U (100%)

JH – Not that bad.
AK – Surprisingly head noddy.

8. P!nk (ft. Nate Ruess) – Just Give Me a Reason

JH – Meh, ballady bollocks.
AK – Hen night singalong.

7. will.i.am (ft. Justin Bieber) – #thatPOWER

JH – It’s just awful.
AK – Contains pretentious Bieber.

6. David Guetta (ft. Ne-Yo & Akon) – Play Hard

JH – Alice Deejay? 1998?
AK – (sings) Better off alone

5. Calvin Harris (ft. Ellie Goulding) – I Need Your Love

JH – Are they fucking?
AK – Googling it… No.

4. Passenger – Let Her Go

JH – Beautiful but boring.
AK – Dull. Dull. Dull.

3. Macklemore & Ryan Lewis – Can’t Hold Us

JH – Brilliant. White Kanye?
AK – Promising until rap-hands.

2. Rudimental (ft. Ella Eyre) – Waiting All Night

AK – Repeat until suicidal.
JH – Great video though.

1. Daft Punk (ft. Pharrell Williams) – Get Lucky

JH – Album 16 days.
AK – Chart redeemed itself.

No palette cleanser needed – just listen to Daft Punk again.  We’ll be back with another three word chart review next week. Maybe.
