Week Ending 15/12/2016

There is no stopping Clean Bandit from being at the top. Jonas Blue get closer, but the re-entry of OneRepublic, plus 8 more new entries mean that the competition is increasing, and someone must have the potential of being the next #1.

Chart Commentary

A big thank you to all those 11 of you who commented on last week's personal chart, including WiseManFromLeeds, Snaking Stevens, Sven10, Jason, RobinJuanPersie, popchartfreak, James Frost ⛄️⛄️⛄️, Santa's Haz, Riser, toffonews and Mango. I realise that I haven't really been acknowledging your comments in my weekly chart, so I intend to reply directly to more comments in the future.

No other song which has entered my personal chart has managed 4, let alone 5 weeks at #1, so clearly Rockabye is going to be up there as one of my best songs from 2016. By Your Side has been edging closer and closer to #1 since it entered the chart 5 weeks ago, and is a certain contender for future #1 on my personal chart, despite thinking it was a poor single at first listen too . Cheat Codes fall one place, and Years & Years re-enter the Top 5 this week.

A re-entry this week is OneRepublic whose single Kids was a grower in me at one time, then it fell out of my charts and now it is back with a new peak at #5. Another re-entry from the previous week climbs into the Top 10 for the first time, and that is Starboy by The Weeknd feat. Daft Punk. Unfortunately, there is no room in the chart for any other songs by The Weeknd presently. The chart welcomes back Britney Spears following her single Make Me... earlier this year. Her collaboration with 2016 sensation Tinashe promises to be a hit end before the year is over. Röyksopp falls to #10 and could be on its way out of the Top 10 by next week after a 12 week successive chart run.

Tove Lo enters this week at #12 with the follow up to Cool Girl entitled True Disaster. Brits 'Critic Choice Award' Winner for 2017, Rag'n'Bone Man climbs to #14. Everything else drops this week apart from the remaining new entries which come from Alma, Robbie Williams, Bruno Mars, Martin Solveig feat. Ina Wroldsen, Kölsch and Lady Gaga. Some of these names could have a very good 2017 in the charts.

It's time to say goodbye to 9 artists this week in the form of Filatov & Karas, Little Mix, Wilkinson feat. Karen Harding, Seeb feat. Jacob Banks, Chase & Status feat. Tom Grennan, Jax Jones feat. Mike Dunn & MNEK, Tory Lanez, PaperClap feat. Alicia-Awa and former Zanmatony BJSC entry Metrik feat. Elisabeth Troy – Chasing Sunrise.

Please continue to show your support and I thank you for checking out my personal chart this week!
