2010 Update!

Dear all,

To kick things off I would like to wish you all a Happy New Year! I realise things have been slow in terms of playlist updates, but as we all have demanding schedules nowadays it proves to be hard to find the time to be a vigilant playlist-poster and blogger! I shall make it one of my many new year's resolutions to try and get hold of and post as many playlists as possible though.

I honestly did not think this blog would get as popular as it has done and I want to thank everyone for the positive remarks, as well as those who have replied to other peoples comments on song suggestions! I have tried my hardest to reply to your questions in one big comment in the 'Update' (15/12/09) post.

For now I thought I would post this handy link:
http://www.clubclique.co.uk/mixtapes.html

Club Clique produces the most fantastic mixtapes, containing all the current stuff being played in Topshop! So check them out and download them!

I hope that has satisfied your ears for now; I shall be back in the next month with some new Topshop playlists. Please keep giving your feedback and spread the word!

  2. Hi, i found this blog when trying to find the title/artist of a song i hear constantly in TopShop atm.

    Its a cover of 'you got the love' (candi staton) but its a duet - a woman and a man - i think the woman could possibly be a sample from florence + the machine's cover but I've never heared a version with a man singing as well before (appart from in topshop!)

    does anyone know what this is? I couldn't see it on the playlist for jan 2010?

  6. Hi everyone,
    Sorry for such a delay!
    I'm so busy with uni work at the minute, I'm finding it hard to keep on top of all this playlist malarkey! I'll try to get the March and April one soonish - I've got a feeling they'll be long gone though!

    Sorry once again, and thanks for some of your positive support - just be patient! (I'm avid blogger as it is!)

    I was in topshop yesterday (28th Dec 2010) and heard a couple of songs and would like to find out what they were. Can't remember many lyrics but here goes - shootin' straight from the hip seemed to be chorus from one song and the other was something about 'love' and 'prostitute'. Hope someone can help, I have had no luck so far.

  58. For the person looking for the Remix of 'Heartbeats', it is actually the original version of the song (I think!) by The Knife.

    And thank you for the person who told me about the 'Lydia' song. Mystery solved!!

  59. Hey, I was in Foyleside Topman today, there was a song playing that the workers didn't know the song, but said that its on a tape they get sent to them every month.
    It starts off with a violin or strings sound. then goes into like a trance sound tho no beat to it. maybe a drumkit. the vocals had like a reverb effect to it. I really need to know this song.. please help, Jamie
