Tune or No Tune - Changed the Way You Kiss Me by Example

[Corki]

After an enforced break, "Tune or No Tune" returns for 2012! So I hope you will take the time to get involved!

 

"Tune or No Tune" is a simple, weekly thread hosted by the Band of the Red Hand Social Group. All you need to do is decide whether the song I have chosen is a TUNE (i.e. you love it) or a NO TUNE (i.e. you hate it). Quite simple, really!

 

As is usual for January, the theme is a look back at songs from the previous year, as well as a look at artists who are expected to hit the big time in 2012. And to start with, using the Official Chart Company's top 20 Singles of 2011 as a guide, I have picked a song that is not in the "It's A Knockout" contest. That songs is Changed the Way You Kiss Me by Example.

 

Taken from his third studio album Playing in the Shadows, the trance influenced Changed the Way You Kiss Me first aired in late March 2011. Produced by Michael Woods, it was released as a single in June 2011 and debuted straight in at number 1, selling 115,000 in the first week. This was his first number 1, and stayed there for two weeks.

 

Selling 582,000 records in 2011, Changed the Way You Kiss Me came in as the 17th biggest selling single of the year. It is a very different to the emotional ballads of Adele and the feel-good club-pop from LMFAO that were released during the year.

 

While usually a fan of dance and trance music, this sadly doesn't do much for me. It's a bit on the dull side. As a result, I give Changed the Way You Kiss Me by Example the vote of NO TUNE.
