'What I Did For Love' - David Guetta feat. Emeli Sande
Anyone who's anyone wants to feature on a David Guetta record these days - and for good reason!

Karen Harding may not have found success during her appearances on The X-Factor or Eurovision, but she DID manage to score a top 10 appearance on the Big Top 40 with her debut single 'Say Something'.
'Bills' - LunchMoney Lewis
FINALLY! The one song you're guaranteed to get stuck in your head and sing out loud on the bus (awk!). 'Bills' is the ridiculously catchy hit from the rising US rapper, who's already appeared on Nicki Minaj's 'The Pinkprint' album! Definitely one to watch this year.

It's the return of high-pitched vocals! Get those helium balloons out and get screeching the chorus to this massive Big Top 40 hit.

Remember where you were in summer 2015 when you first heard of Marlon Roudette - he may not be a name you're familiar with, but he's MASSIVE in Europe. He even told us that he was bigger than Ed Sheeran on the continent and the pair could be working together very soon.
