Dexton's Top 40 (12/06/2018) (Week 57)



High Hopes is rising high! Panic! At The Disco earn their first #1 here in anticipation for their upcoming album and are joined by Maroon 5's Girls Like You featuring Cardi B in climbing into the Top 5. George Ezra's monopoly at #2 continues for a third consecutive week, meaning Clean Bandit's Solo featuring Demi Lovato is down to #3. Selena Gomez falls gracefully (3-5) after last weeks peak with Back To You. Selena's previous hit, Wolves with Marshmello, managed 7 weeks within the Top 5 but sadly missed out on #1. Back To You is not looking likely to give her her first #1 on my chart!

Shake-up within the Top 10 as Duke Dumont, Years & Years, 5 Seconds of Summer, and Post Malone all grab another Top 10 hit for themselves. Duke Dumont's Inhale featuring Ebenezer (12-6) launches up the chart becoming his second entry this high in the chart after Real Life featuring NAATIONS made it to #5 last year. Years & Years are also claiming their second Top 10 with If You're Over Me (16-8). 5 Seconds of Summer's Youngblood (23-9) becomes the bands highest charting single here, whereas Better Now (17-10) is Post Malone's third Top 10 hit and second to peak at #10 following Psycho featuring Ty Dolla $ign.

Khalid just can't stay away from my chart... Giving the American Teen his 10th Top 20 hit and thus far a 100% hit rate in terms of charting songs (as in, every song that's charted of Khalid's in my Top 40 has gone Top 20) is the H.E.R. collaboration This Way from the Superfly soundtrack. This Way debuts at #17. Funnily enough, he will likely be earning yet another chart entry next week as his long-awaited Martin Garrix collab is to be released this Friday. Interestingly if he does get another chart entry next week, he will overtake Justin Timberlake as the artist with the most singles to have gone Top 40 on the chart!

Other new entries come from Tove Lo with bitches featuring Charli XCX, Icona Pop, Elliphant, & ALMA (#20), Niall Horan & Maren Morris with Seeing Blind (#32), and Vic Mensa & Marshmello with Reverse featuring G-Eazy (#35). It's a fairly quiet chart week, yep. Tove Lo, Charli XCX, and ALMA previously made it to #19 on Charli's Out Of My Head, will bitches outpeak the supergroup's previous song? Maybe. I mean, it could happen. Bitches is nice enough and is far better than the other girl power collaboration that's out there right now Notable climbers are the former Australian X-Factor contestant Ivy Adara who's Currency (28-19) buys her her first Top 20 hit, Vance Joy's Saturday Sun (35-28) which is ironically charting in the cold sun-less Winter, Labrinth, Sia, & Diplo's Audio (37-29) which is making [sound]waves on it's second run in my chart, and finally Hayden Jame's Just Friends featuring Boy Matthews (39-33) which... has outpeaked his previous single already. nice

The album chart continues to be a mildly interesting aspect of my weekly chart with Post Malone's Beerbongs & Bentley's finally making it to the #1 position after 7 weeks of non-#1-ness. Unfortuntely for Jorja Smith this Post Malone resurgence comes on her album release week and her debut album Lost & Found is denied the #1, entering at #2. Shawn Mendes, Snow Patrol, and George Ezra finish off a mostly male Top 5. Jorja is actually the only female artist in my Top 10 right now And if we look at all male members included in the bands, there are currently 20 male artists in my Top 10 compared to just 1 female artist. Not the most fantastic ratio, although what does that matter at the end of the day Ariana's album will slay here so it'll even out soon enough

Thanks for showing your face
