With increasingly little spare time, I've decided to reduce publishing my chart here from once a week to once a month. The monthly chart will be based on my weekly charts which I'll still be working out for my personal record, but I don't have as much time as I'd like to respond to comments on my weekly charts so I won't be publishing them. I also don't have as much time as I'd like to respond to other people's charts either. This was why I only replied to charts of those who commented on my chart each week and even that process was incredibly rushed and shoehorned in at some point between Sunday and Tuesday. At least by doing it this way I can respond to more people's charts once or twice a month rather than quickly replying to the same charts every week (I don't at all mind commenting on the same charts each week - I just don't really have much time to).

 

The monthly chart will be based on average chart positions for songs that chart between the first and last Sunday's of each month. There will be controls to eliminate any bias to songs that only chart for one or two weeks during that period. Each monthly chart will be posted after the second Sunday of the following month, so this month's chart is coming a week later than normal. So the chart being published here is basically the January chart, and the February chart will follow around March 11th.

 

Hope that makes sense. Apologies to anyone who followed my weekly chart closely, but the monthly chart should hopefully be an interesting read as there should be a quick turnover of new entries each month. As I said, the only reasons I'm doing it are because it saves me time and allows me to comment on more poster's charts, but allows me to do that whenever I have a convenient time.

Great Chart!

Hey Ghosty, shame to hear you've run out of time to post a weekly chart :o I expect I'd still always post one weekly, at the most extreme I guess I'd just do a top 20 singles/albums and just post it in the multichart thread if I didn't have time to comment on other people's. But it defintiely sounds like you've had a lack of free time recently so I can see why you've made this move! I've always made excellent discoveries from your chart and I'll endeavour to keep checking out all of the songs I don't know in your monthly top 20 :D

 

Lovely top three here this month anyway, you know how I feel about The Deserters DNQ'ing and it's brilliant to see Glorious doing so well :wub: Will the Melodifestivalen entries all appear next month? Not that there's probably anything deserving of being a huge hit just yet!

Hi

 

49 Loreen - My Heart Is Refusing Me (1) Hope to see 'Everytime' in your upcoming charts soon

Great Chart!

OMG. Is 'Everytime' the next single?! :wub:

 

Cascada smashing their way up again! :wub: 'Euphoria' on the brink of the top 20 again too. So many songs I am yet to hear though :drama: But from what I have heard, it's a pretty stunning chart!

Imma miss your weekly chart ;_; but at least you have your monthly one :wub:

Cascada's song is growing on me the more I listen to it, hoping they do well in Eurovision.

Lawson :heart:

Have you heard Kylie's new song?

Oh boooo at you reducing your charts (what even is this "real life" you talk of?)

 

01 Rachel Zeffira - The Deserters (1)

02 Cascada - Glorious (1)

03 Petula Clark - Cut Copy Me (1)

GLORIOUS top 3 :wub:

21 Loreen - Euphoria (1) In My Head is apparently the next single. See You Again would have been MAH #1 choice :snif:

42 Lawson - Learn To Love Again (13) LOVE :wub:

68 Noisettes - I Want U Back (24) I've yet to listen all the way through Contact, but will definitely check this out if it's the next single!?

58 - It's not the most catchiest song she's done! I think it's alright, but it's a very unusual direction for her to go in!

Great Chart!

 

Thanks!

 

49 - Unless it's released as a single, it won't appear. I do absolutely love the track though!

74 - I rather liked it! Much better than the original I thought!

Thanks for commenting! Yeah, the weekly chart may return at some point, but my uni course has picked up pace a lot recently and I'm finding it difficult to devote time to commenting on charts. This month's chart is a bit dull as it's all stuff that's gone before, but I hope next month's chart will be more exciting for people to read!

 

I do indeed, thanks for the mention in your votes! Glorious will probably be number one next month, but there's still a few more weeks of chart positions left to go before I work out the averages! The MF entries should appear next month, how many remains to be seen though, such a disappointing lineup this year :( On Top Of The World is looking set to be a big hit for me though!

 

OMG. Is 'Everytime' the next single?! :wub:

 

Cascada smashing their way up again! :wub: 'Euphoria' on the brink of the top 20 again too. So many songs I am yet to hear though :drama: But from what I have heard, it's a pretty stunning chart!

 

Thanks!

 

Sadly not. In Your Head, Heal and Requiem Solution all seem to have been released at once though!

 

Euphoria held up well during January, but will probably take a huge dip down the monthly rankings for the February chart.

 

Imma miss your weekly chart ;_; but at least you have your monthly one :wub:

Cascada's song is growing on me the more I listen to it, hoping they do well in Eurovision.

Lawson :heart:

Have you heard Kylie's new song?

 

The monthly one should hopefully be more interesting in the end! This month's is a bit dull as it's all stuff that's gone before, but next month should see a good 40 odd new entries I reckon!

 

Cascada's entry is AMAZING! Really hope it does well for them!

 

I have heard Kylie's new track... it's a bit niche! Very weird direction for her to go in.

 

Oh boooo at you reducing your charts (what even is this "real life" you talk of?)

:lol:, it's a life of multiple jobs and a university course! Quite dull for most, but it's something that I'm loving! Sadly it means I have less time for posting here though!

 

Glad you like the top 3! :D

21 - Yeah, I'd have preferred Everytime myself!

42 - Should make a huge rise up next month's chart! My favourite boyband single in years!

68 - It came out quite a while back! It's a very good song and album though!

That's fair enough, I'm not surprised, I always find it hard to set aside an hour or two to reply to people's charts too, some week's I just don't bother (although I always comment on yours, it's tradition :P)

 

It has been a disappointing year overall but there are a few gems, not that any of them went very far. Heartstrings is my favourite although I know you were unimpressed.

14 - Amelia was a brilliant choice of support for the tour! Was she good?

49 - Same :(

I'll try and comment on yours as often as possible! Your chart is afterall one of the best here!

 

Heartstrings is probably in my top 10, not worked it out, but I did find the song spectacularly overrated. On Top Of The World is comfortably my favourite MF track this year.

Ah likewise!

 

Lol I think we have the direct opposite opinion there, because On Top Of The World is good for me but the one that I was disappointed at after the hype. I'm actually addicted to Heartstrings even though I know loads of people were disappointed :o
