Staying at No.1, in the UK Top 100 Music chart summary w/e October 20th 2016, is the 2012 X-Factor winner James Arthur with Say You Won’t Let Go, and it’s puke-inducing, romantic, sloppy trash, which sounds like it was written in 5 minutes. Whoever bought this needs their head read.
The only new entry in the Top 10 is Bruno Mars at No.9 with 24K Magic, and it’s dreadful as usual from him, albeit slightly less annoying.
