Dexton's Top 40 (20/03/2017) (Week 45)



Another steady week at the top for George Ezra, but with some heavy competition! A high debut for Yungen's Mind On It featuring Jess Glynne comes at #2 giving both artists their highest charting single here - following Bestie (#14) and These Days (#3). A non-mover at #3 is Ofenbach vs. Nick Waterhouse's Katchi, whilst the rest of the Top 5 is completed by Khalid's Location featuring Jorja Smith & Wretch 32 (5-4), and Imagine Dragons' Next To Me (2-5).

On the edge of the Top 5 is Blossoms' I Can't Stand It (8-6) which officially matches the bands previous peak with Chase & Status' This Moment, and also climbing within the Top 10 we have Pink's Secrets (9-7) which gives Pink her third Top 7 single. The Weeknd & Kendrick Lamar's Pray For Me (4-8), and Kojo Funds & RAYE's Check (6-10) each fall four places and Cash Cash earns his first ever Top 10 hit here with Jewel featuring Nikki Vianna at #9.

Lot's of songs are climbing this week including Khalid & Normani's Love Lies (13-20), Jorja Smith x Preditah's On My Mind (18-15), Bazzi's Mine (21-20), The Wombats' Lemon To A Knife Fight (22-21), Rudimental's These Days featuring Jess Glynne, Macklemore, & Dan Caplen (24-23), RAYE's Cigarette featuring Mabel & Stefflon Don (29-27), Liam Gallagher's Paper Crown (33-32), Paramore's Rose-Colored Boy (39-36), and Post Malone's Psycho featuring Ty Dolla $ign (40-39). Love Lies climbs closer to giving Khalid his 5th Top 10 hit, a feat only previously made by Justin Timberlake.

Just six new entries enter the chart this week, although another six songs looking to enter next week would be in the 41-46 region (if my chart was that big ). The highest new entry is Yungen's Mind On It featuring Jess Glynne at #2, followed by Lousia Johnson's Yes featuring 2 Chainz at #12. Yes is such a bop although I was a bit overwhelmed by how much is going on in less than 3 minutes running time A fantastic re-working of Louisa though after Best Behaviour flopped (and wasn't too great anyway). At #14 is Emma Blackery's long-awaited Dirt, which fully vibes Taylor Swift in all the best ways. Emma is a YouTuber who I've been following for a while now, she is currently vlogging away as she works on her upcoming album which makes for a very interesting (and hilarious) 20 minutes each week! Another new entry to the Top 20 is Banx & Ranx & Ella Eyre's Answerphone featuring Ynxg Bane at #18, which will be a hit here and officially I'm sure! Further down we have Taylor Swift's Delicate entering at #29, and MAX's Lights Down Low featuring gnash at #40. Lights Down Low is a song I've been sort-of listening to for a couple of months now, but I heard it on the radio on Friday and have been playing it a lot more since then

Unlike the bore of last week, this week the album chart is somewhat exciting! About as exciting as an album chart can be, anyway. Not to anyone's surprise, Justin Timberlake further extends his chart record as he takes a 6th week at #1, beating high competition from Khalid (!) and Eminem. Khalid's American Teen was release about a year ago however I've only just really got into the album as a whole as I realise how much of a Khalid fan I've become! Aside from the amazing singles (which Young, Dumb & Broke was robbed of a chart placing here for some reason, my bad) the album also has some great album tracks to offer - I highly recommend this... and every other album here mind you. Eminem's Revival climbs back into the Top 5 after the single release of Nowhere Fast featuring Kehani, which should grace the singles chart next week also. The first ever re-entry into my album chart comes from - of course - Taylor Swift whose Reputation has never been worse at it enters back at #7. Then a new entry right at the bottom is Logic's Bobby Tarantino II mixtape at #10 - confirming that my album chart does allow mixtapes to chart although not soundtracks (since I only really listen to 2-4 songs from soundtracks so it doesn't make much sense . See: The Greatest Showman & Black Panther as recent examples). Logic & Marshmello's Everyday should also enter the singles chart next week, although who knows how many amazing new singles will be release this week as last week took me way by surprise

Thanks for reading!
