Chart Analysis
Eurovision has well and truly invaded this week, holding exactly half of the top 20! At the very top are the winners Måneskin with ZITTI E BUONI - the first song with no English lyrics to reach the top since Bella D'Estate by Mika & Michele Bravi (coincidentally also in Italian). Just below is the unfairly robbed Montaigne with Technicolour, and Go_A with SHUM. Hooverphonic take 4th place, followed by a few songs which managed to withstand the Euro-invasion: Marina, Lil Nas X and Olivia Rodrigo all score new top ten entries. Back to Eurovision, and Finland's Blind Channel scores a #8 hit while Cyprus's Elena Tsagrinou lands at #9. And then we have Olivia once again dropping like a stone to #10. The Eurovision overload continues just outside the top ten, challenged only by Bleachers and Biig Piig. The rest of the chart is mostly just massive drops for anything non-ESC related, but new entries come from Sinead Harnett, Channel Tres and Mysie. Next week, expect big things for Sigrid and a couple more Måneskin tracks

Hey Ansel!

Sun Goes Down is pretty decent though not what I expected after Montero
I've not heard Brutal or listened to the album for that matter but I will have Deja Vu joining her other two singles soon! I shall listen to the album today as well!
That massive fall for Please I'm disappointed!
Interesting to see Wildflower Wildfire charting highest here of all three tracks. Blue Banisters is by far my favourite

Lots of Eurovision here! Fab to see that big climb for Hooverphonic, that's my highest entry this week, and I'm a big fan of Discotheque, 10 Years and Growing Up is Getting Old as well.

Sun Goes Down is definitely a lot more chilled, I like it but can see why it's not exactly smashing IRL.
Hope you enjoyed Olivia's album! Brutal + the singles are my faves and I probably won't return to much else unless I'm listening to the album in full tbh.
Oops at Please, I did stop listening to it this week with all the post-Eurovision hype
Wildflower Wildfire is giving me NFR vibes, Blue Banisters didn't rly do much for me unfortunately!

Ahh glad Hooverphonic is your favourite, it was mine until I watched the final! Those others are great too

Hi Ansel!
Nice to see many Eurovision Songs on here, many of them (especially #1) I actually like!
Also like the debuts for 'Brutal", "American Beauty" and "Enough For You"!
Great chart!
