Chart commentary: This week is slightly inactive even though more songs were ranked this week, as we feature 10 new entries plus 1 re-entry. This week's highest entry is at no. 2 with this bop Future Funeral by Promis3. It sounds avant-garde and I like the hardstyle elements in this song. Elsewhere, we also have Äidinäidin raivolla making the top 50 after bubbling under top 50 for 3 weeks at an astonishing high position of 21. My childhood favourite Zayde Wølf is back with a rock banger Holy Water. Let It Ring is back after dropping out of top 50 briefly. Gaslighting is a haunting and thought-provoking song by composer Ginevra Nervi, which the lyrics depict the inconvenient gaslighting moment. Wrapping up the new entries is some known artists Imagine Dragons and Alice Merton with Follow You and Vertigo respectively.
Meanwhile, MONTERO (Call Me By Your Name) just like in the video strip-poled their way down to no. 1 from no. 47, which I'm totally living for it, particularly the extended version. The top 5 is also very different this week, with only Tout l'univers staying in the top 5. Do It Again and Karma entered top 10 with bops. I Will Help You jumps the most by 15 places to a respectable 23rd position. The last anthemic part draws in a lot of attention and this is a great song by Ilse DeLange.
Lil Nas X – MONTERO (Call Me By Your Name)
From no. 47 2 weeks ago to no. 1! Oh my what a turnaround and certainly I've never expected myself to chart a hip-hop song in my pop-heavy chart, let alone crown one! Amazing tune, relatable lyrics, and the extended version is better with that instrumental solo!
Chart history: 47-13-1
2. Promis3 – Future Funeral
WHAT?? This has a special vibe and the instrumentation is strong. The verse is catchy but oh my that drop is probably the most unexpected and sick drop I've ever heard so far! I'm very surprised about the quality of this song and if any, should challenge no. 1 next week! This song has a deep message sent everybody who struggles with mental health, noting that “drugs aren’t a substitute for the real support that people around can offer”.
Chart history: 2
3. Gjon’s Tears – Tout l’univers
Dropping 2 places we have Gjon's Tears with his power ballad Tout l'univers. The melody is still very beautiful and memorable so don't expect this to drop out of top 50 soon!
Chart history: 4-3-2-1-3
4. Kyns – I can never be
This is slowly growing in me and I really love the stripped back nature and the raw emotion in this. The production value is also high with the instrumentation. Although it lacks a third chorus, I don't think it will improve the song or give it a better package. The song itself is a great package already. About the message of this song, Kyns says, “This song is an intimate ballad confronting the idea of ‘feeling deserving’ of good things and how imposter syndrome can manifest itself in relationships, both romantic and with yourself.”
Chart history: 26-18-21-11-8-4
5. salem ilese – (L)only Child
Barely entered top 10 last week, (L)only Child continues to grow on every listen! That instrumental drop is iconic and is so memorable which bridges the flow really well. Could it reach even higher? Time will tell! This song took 2 years for salem ilese to produce as it talks about her own experience as the only child in the family and it taught her how to be her own bestie.
Chart history: 39-15-10-5
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
6. Primo – Do It Again (27-32-20-11-6)
BJSC 133 participant Primo breaks into top 10 with a retro-inspired bop Do It Again. I really like the chord progression in the chorus, particularly that chromatic chord in between which gets me every time. The melody is also very strong too. Could it become one of the best discoveries since Lord & Master? I think it has!
7. Destiny - Je me casse (14-5-5-7)
Je Me Casse still remains in the top 10 after a strong bop. Time would tell if they will last in the top 50 until Eurovision!
8. Jamala - Like a Hero (2-1-4-3-8)
Like a Hero is still a very strong power ballad but her 4-week reign in the top 5 must come to end but still ends up at a respectable no. 8 this week!
9. Shalisa – Karma (30-12-9)
Karma rose to no. 9 this week with a short banger. Less than 2 minutes and a half, this song manages to pack the ABABCB structure into such a short period of time without sounding too rushed!
10. Noirêve ft. Giulia Foddai - Summer Don't Go (10-3-7-10)
Back to where it started! Summer Don't Go drops to no. 10, the same position where it started.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
11. Charles – He Knows (11-9-4-11)
12. Shamir – Ocean Eyes (17-20-14-5-7-9-12)
13. LANKS - The Silence (22-14-9-6-2-1-2-13)
14. Max Richter ft. Mari Samuelsen, Robert Ziegler – Follower (17-6-6-6-14)
15. Tayler Buono – IFHU (35-20-15)
16. Hana Oceans – Austers (19-15-12-18-16)
17. CÉLINE – Hotel (15-XX-42-29-22-17)
This song recuperated itself well. After dropping out of top 50 shockingly once debutted at no. 15, it slowly crawled its way back to where it started. I must say I have got used to it without a proper 3rd chorus because of the emotion, and you can feel it despite all being sung in German here.
18. Loney Dear – Mute / All things pass (23-18)
19. VICTORIA – growing up is getting old (13-4-2-1-12-17-26-19)
20. Daughtry – Heavy Is The Crown (25-20)
Daughtry is back with a decent rock song and the chorus has a good melody whilst being memorable as well!
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
21. Nohanna – Äidinäidin raivolla (21)
After struggling to get into top 50 by being just outside of top 50 for 3 weeks, this jumps straight into the top 50 at no. 21! Very beautiful song and the instrumentation is strong as well.
22. Loi – I Follow (33-22)
23. Ilse DeLange – I Will Help You (31-38-23)
24. Caroline Culver – Walking On Glass (34-24)
25. Ninski, Sky M. – Hazy (24-25)
26. Andrea Di Giovanni – Crown (32-26)
27. VICTORIA – imaginary friend (11-2-1-7-8-8-14-27)
28. iRO – Yesterday’s News (40-16-14-15-28)
29. Nick Wilson – Lead Me to the Water (35-29)
30. KOKO, Nina Chuba, Dillistone – 22s (43-29-30)
31. Winning Team – Where I Belong (36-38-19-31)
32. Zayde Wølf – Holy Water (32)
33. pinkiscool – Plastic (33)
The chorus is catchy and the melody is strong too. It sounds like it will climb in the next few weeks!
34. LP – One Last Time (44-33-21-34)
35. Mimi Webb – Good Without (37-35)
36. BATHSHEBA – LALA (36-36)
37. Keir, Fenne Lily – leave a light on (37)
38. Motez ft. The Kite String Tangle – Give Me Space (37-30-38)
39. Kings Elliot – Bitter Tonic (44-39)
40. Mathieu Des Longchamps – Mademoiselle Tomovic (46-40)
41. RORI – The Same Way (49-41)
42. Reiley – Let It Ring (41-XX-42)
43. Mark Clennon, Rainer + Grimm – Stray (43-19-16-43)
44. Imagine Dragons – Follow You (44)
45. ROSIE – Retail Therapy (19-18-20-4-8-34-50-41-45)
46. Ginevra Nervi – Gaslighting (46)
This is a haunting piece but also thought-provoking as well. I would especially point out the lyrics as well which is the main highlight of the song. I also like the sound production as well.
47. George Glew – Satellites (45-48-31-47)
48. Søndag Søndag – Torsdag (48)
We are back with some contemporary classical music and this week we have Søndag Søndag with his Torsdag which means Thursday in Danish. This song is about 3 minutes, which is twice as long as in the video, but it is packed with emotions conveyed by the strings and piano. Søndag Søndag most recently had Sondag charted but this is another decent one from their upcoming self-titled album.

Hiii
Montero #1 smashing!
(L)onely Child smashing as well it enters my chart tomorrow finally yass.
Ooo Do It Again almost top 5 *.* I really am so glad you got a find out of this one.
I gave that LANKS song a listen last week (back when it was still high up your chart whoops) - sounded decent although didn't grab me as much as I'd hoped, could still grow on me though! Didn't realise Luz had a new song out - listening now, sounding pretty nice, added to my playlist. Fab to see Vertigo sneak in as well!
Hi Uhsting!
Everyone loving Lil Nas X! I will have to try and get over my rap bias , the video is especially good
I'm still avoiding all Eurovision songs till the week, so my charts will be behind yours quite a bit by then!
Still lovin LP and Imagine Dragons...
Sondag Sondag sound mellow interesting
Hi Uhsting,
Great Top 10 with : Lil Nas X, Gjon´s Tears and Primo
Wow, Ilse DeLange in the Top 30. She´s bubbling under in the official Dutch Tipparade chart.
You mentioned Davina Michelle in your comment, but couldn´t find her track here ?
Mimi Webb up in the Top 40
