This becomes her highest placing single, beating last year&#8217;s &#8220;Good Without&#8221; (which got to number 8). The singles from the last album were mostly mid paced ballads, so this is a bit of a shift, positioning her more as an 80s pop act.

Tion Wayne &amp; M24 &#8211; &#8220;Knock Knock&#8221;<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"YouTube video player\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/KrFLS9hqB44\" width=\"400\" height=\"225\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>This week&#8217;s mid-table UK rap track. Tion Wayne is a chart regular, and had a number 1 last year alongside Russ Millions with &#8220;Body&#8221;. M24&#8217;s only previous hit single was in 2020, when he got to number 32 with &#8220;London&#8221;&#8230; featuring Tion Wayne. Since we last saw him, he&#8217;s spent a few months in jail for possession of a knife. He&#8217;s also the only mainstream rapper to make a record with the improbable septuagenarian duo Pete &amp; Bas, who go viral every so often when a new audience stumbles upon them.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"YouTube video player\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/vE7AXBELOU4\" width=\"400\" height=\"225\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>Pete &amp; Bas are a very strange proposition who just get stranger when you start looking into them. They started as a spin-off from SindhuWorld, a comedy Instagram account about a London corner shop <a href=\"https:\/\/www.buzzfeed.com\/nicolemartinez082\/people-are-obsessed-with-this-convenience-store-ow-11cba?utm_term=.iu0OGnQnq#.khD7Kpepr\">which went modestly viral in 2017<\/a>. In that continuity, Pete was a trading standards officer and Bas was a piano teacher, personas long since phased out in favour of being ageing gangsters. While journalists tend to turn a blind eye to this (or just never spot it), it\u00a0isn&#8217;t a secret &#8211; <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=3OEkk2JvEMM\">their earliest YouTube video<\/a> still calls them &#8220;Pete and Bas from SindhuWorld&#8221; in the description, and on Spotify, their records carry a SindhuWorld copyright notice.\u00a0SindhuWorld also have a credit on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=fxMNBYyfyk0\">Frank &amp; Maury, who are essentially the same concept but American<\/a>.\u00a0There&#8217;s a\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/filmlocal.com\/job\/casting-call-in-new-york\/\">casting call<\/a>\u00a0for that project, which could certainly be read as suggesting that it&#8217;s a lip synch role.\u00a0But (unlike the Americans) Pete &amp; Bas play live shows, and they&#8217;ve done extended interviews. It&#8217;s all quite odd. A lot of the records are <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=HxyqSXJUcW0\">genuinely good on their own merits<\/a>, anyhow.<\/p>\n<p><strong>34.
