UK Top 100 Music chart summary & my views w/e May 23rd 2015

OMI stays at No.1, in the UK Top 100 Music Chart w/e May 23rd 2015, with Cheerleader, and it’s a rather slow dance track with over-use of auto-tune. Terrible.

There are two new entries in the Top 10: a No.2 for the stupidly-named LunchMoney Lewis with Bills, and a No.4 for Galantis with Runaway (U & I).

Highlight of this week goes to another musician taken too soon – BB King, a man who proved he was ahead of his time with the song, Never Trust A Woman.
