Think that's the first time as many as 4 would-be new entries have been denied by streaming, though may be wrong on that.

Absolutely horrible losses this week cry.gif

The fact that shake it off, blank space and lighthouse all missed out (3 of the 4 best songs since 2014) and the amazing psycho also missed out OVER BLOODY ALL OF ME is actually heartbreaking cry.gif

I don't really need you to tell me this magic.gif I already apologised for the lack of updates a couple of weeks ago and I still haven't got around to it for various reasons but I will get it updated today.

It has happened twice before, August and November of last year.

Seven changes is also an equalling record. smile.gif

so that's the first bonafide UK top 40 sales hit denied a Top 75 place - Chic: not only a great record, it would have extended a chart run of top 40 hits to an amazing 37 years.

Lower down we have losses like madonna's Ghosttown and many others.

Streaming is bad for the music business, it's bad for new and old acts and it's only good for a limited few huge records which outstay their welcome, appear to be bigger than they are (mostly it's the "albums" effect of huge albums artists Sam Smith, Ed Sheeran and the like). yes people used to play huge albums for years after they were big, and the tracks often under-achieved in the singles chart, but now it's tipped the balance completely the other way and they just never go away, partly thanks to sales as well as streaming, but the pathetic state of the Official Singles Chart is entirely due to streaming.

Have I mentioned how much I loathe it?

Thought so laugh.gif
