Before we get on to this week's Fresh 45, here's a list of all the songs we're saying good-bye to this week.
Mariah Carey Ft. Miguel - #Beautiful
Chris Brown - Fine China
Drop City Yacht Club - Crickets
Little Mix - Wings
Emeli Sande - Next to Me
MKTO - Thank You
Jennifer Lopez Ft. Pitbull - Live It Up
I think at this time we must pause for an obituary.
Emeli Sande – Next to Me made its countdown debut on October 20th, 2012. It lived a debatably-good 9-month life for some reason. Never aspiring for greatness, Next to Me became a shining example of “be happy what you have”. It never ascended higher than the #24 spot on the countdown. Though it was never loved enough to see the countdown’s top half, it never once complained. This lends credence to the idea that a positive attitude has a definite impact on longevity. The Hits-1 voters never over-the-top appreciated it, and quite frankly neither did I, but a very modest number of people apparently consistently loved it for what it was. Isn’t that all any of us aspire for? Its lasting presence on the countdown did not go unnoticed, as a certain Hits-1 countdown recapper dedicated some of his precious Blurb space each week to discuss amazement at how it lasted so long. I won’t go so far as to say Next to Me will be missed. In fact, it certainly won’t be. But we now find ourselves in a world in which there’s one fewer thing that doesn’t make any sense and can’t be explained by human logic, and well, that quite frankly ruins some of the magic of being alive. Good-bye Next to Me. It’s been real.
