Avicii

Avicii stijgt met The Days op 1 november 2014 in de derde week notering van 11 naar 10. Het nummer, waarop de vocalen van Robbie Williams te horen zijn, is de voorloper van zijn nieuwe album dat in 2015 zal verschijnen.

Tim Bergling (Stockholm, 8 september 1989) scoorde in ons land als Tim Berg zijn eerste hit. Bromance staat in de zomer van 2010 maar liefst 21 weken in de Top 40 en bereikte de tweede plaats. Ook scoort hij als Tom Hangs een top-10 hit met Blessed (#9 in 2011). Daarna scoort hij onder de naam Avicii. Wake Me Up, waarop Aloe Blacc de vocalen voor zijn rekening neemt, stond in 2013 maar liefst 11 weken op de eerste plaats van de Top 40. Ook de opvolger, Hey Brother, bereikt de hoogste positie in de Top 40. Ook Addicted To You werde een hit, maar Lay Me Down, waarop ook Nile Rodgers en Adam Lambert te horen zijn, flopt.
Avicii staat in zowel 2012 als 2013 in de wereldwijde DJ Top 100 van DJ Magazine op de derde plaats.

Avicii - The Days
Under the tree
Where the grass don't grow
We made a promise
To never get old
You had a chance
And you took it on me
And I made a promise
That I couldn't keep
Heartache, heartbreaks
All over town
But something flipped like a switch
When you came around
And I'm in pieces
Pick me up and put me together
Oh oh oh
These are the days
We've been waiting for
On days like these
Who could ask for more
Keep 'em coming
Cause we're not done yet
These are the days
We won't regret
These are the days
We won't forget
These are the days
We've been waiting for
Rattle the cage
And slam that door
And the world is calling us
But just not yet
These are the days
We won't regret
These are the days
We won't forget
Out on the midnight
The wild ones howl
The last of the lost boys
Have thrown in the towel
We used to believe
We were stars aligned
You made a wish
And I fell out of time
Time flew, cut through
All over town
You made me bleed when I look up
And you're not around
But I'm in pieces
Pick me up and put me together
Oh oh oh
These are the days
We've been waiting for
Neither of us
Knows what's in store
You just roll your window down
And place your bets
These are the days
We won't regret
These are the days
We'll never forget
And these are the days (These are the days)
And these are the days (These are the days)
