Dexton's Top 40 (30/01/2017) (Week 38)



Justin dethroned? It sure looks that way. Although with his album just around the corner, Filthy (or perhaps another track from Man Of The Woods) could just as easily climb back up after being beaten in this very close race to #1 this week. Debuted at the top is Vera Blue's Regular Touch, a new song to me from a slightly familiar name which came in at #15 in Triple J's Hottest 100 of 2017 and introduced me to a quite amazing song. Both Justin Timberlake songs fall this week with Supplies (2-4) being overtaken by another song featured highly in the Hottest 100 (#7) - a song I was already stanning PNAU's Go Bang which rises 17 places to #3. A third new entry to the Top 5 comes from previous charter topper Dua Lipa with IDGAF (9-5).

Notable climbers this week are: Sigrid's Strangers (13-10), Morgan Saint's YOU (17-15), Ramz' Barking (19-17), Cashmere Cat, Major Lazer, & Tory Lanez's Miss You (24-18), Axwell & Sebastian Ingrosso's Dreamer featuring Trevor Guthrie (25-19), Fall Out Boy's Hold Me Tight Or Don't (29-25), and Rita Ora's Anywhere (37-26). Well, none of them are too notable - however, this is Sigrid's first time in the Top 10 before only just missing out with Don't Kill My Vibe last year, and is Axwell & Sebastian Ingrosso's second time in the Top 20 after the #8 hit More Than You Know.

Aside from Vera Blue, there are 7 more new entries this week! Thundamentals' Sally featuring Mataya debuts at #11 (#8 in the Hottest 100), Justin Timberlake's Say Something featuring Chris Stapleton at #12, Fall Out Boy's Wilson (Expensive Mistakes) at #16, Angus & Julia Stone's Chateau at #23 (#3 in the Hottest 100), Superfruit's Imaginary Parties at #31 (a BJSC entry I owe thanks to Azure), Mabel's Fine Line featuring Not3s at #33, Topic & Ally Brooke's Perfect at #38, and Hayden James's NUMB featuring GRAACE at #39 (#32 in the Hottest 100). A few other BJSC songs and/or Hottest 100 songs could enter next week as they are dancing around the 41-50 mark, however with Justin Timberlake's album coming this week (!!!!) that could all change...

Over in the album chart Camila holds precedence for a third week, blocking Craig David's long-awaited but slightly-underwhelming The Time Is Now at #2. Gang Of Youth's enter with their album Go Farther In Lightness at #3 - Gang Of Youths are an Australian indie group who had a total of three entries in the Hottest 100's Top 10 (#2, #5, #10) all of which hail from this album. After the countdown, I listened through the album and I really liked it despite them not being really my kind of thing. Fall Out Boy climb to #4 as I dig deeper into M A N I A - Wilson & Hold Me Tight are clear favourites of the album although Champion has grown on me a lot. After 19 weeks in the Top 6, The Killers have finally fallen further down the chart to #8.

Two former #1's and an almost-#1 leave the chart this week, with NF passing on the "Longest Running" torch to Rita Ora's Anywhere. But with Anywhere at just #36, who will take over if she falls out of the chart next week?

Thanks for coming!
