this is quickly getting annoying, the stations in the US are playing this obsessively and it really gets on my nerves.
Don't getting that NOW 89 effect
SO now with Sing falling out is this the first Pharrell-less chart since before Get Lucky was released?! :o
This song is such a non-entity, I'll never understand how it's managed 23 consecutive weeks top 40.

Chart history (Year peak title):

 

2013 03 Budapest -1-

2014 06 Blame It On Me -2-

2014 63 Listen To The Man -3-

 

George Ezra :wub: Shame it doesn't look like 'Listen To The Man' is going to go Top 40 though. :(
Oh the Now! 89 effect has put 'Blame It On Me' a fair bit ahead of 'Budapest' again. Good news. I still enjoy both of them but it'd be a bit :drama: to see 'Budapest' back ahead while they were both still top 40.
Now 89 helping this but not the other track.

 

Probably a big fall next week...

 

'Budapest' isn't on Now! 89 (it was on Now! 88).

Biography

Taylor Alison Swift (born December 13, 1989) is an American singer-songwriter. Raised in Wyomissing, Pennsylvania, Swift moved to Nashville, Tennessee at the age of fourteen to pursue a career in country music. She signed with the independent label Big Machine Records and became the youngest songwriter ever hired by the Sony/ATV Music publishing house. The release of Swift's eponymous debut album in 2006 established her as a country music star. "Our Song", her third single, made her the youngest person to single-handedly write and perform a number one song on the country chart. She received a Best New Artist nomination at the 2008 Grammy Awards.

 

Swift's second album, Fearless, was released in 2008. Buoyed by the pop crossover success of the singles "Love Story" and "You Belong with Me", Fearless became the best-selling album of 2009 and was supported by an extensive concert tour. The record won four Grammy Awards, with Swift becoming the youngest ever Album of the Year winner. Swift's third album, 2010's Speak Now, sold over one million copies in its first week of US release and was supported by the Speak Now World Tour. The album's third single, "Mean", won two Grammy Awards. Swift's fourth album, Red, was released in 2012. Its opening US sales of 1.2 million were the highest recorded in a decade, with Swift becoming the only female artist to have two million-plus opening weeks. The singles "We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together" and "I Knew You Were Trouble" were worldwide hits. The Red Tour is visiting worldwide venues in 2013 and 2014.

 

Swift is known for her narrative songs about her experiences as a teenager and young adult. As a songwriter, she has been honored by the Nashville Songwriters Association and the Songwriters Hall of Fame. Swift's other achievements include seven Grammy Awards, twelve Billboard Music Awards, eleven American Music Awards, eleven Country Music Association Awards and six Academy of Country Music Awards. She has sold over 26 million albums and 75 million digital single downloads worldwide. Forbes estimates that she is worth over $220 million. In addition to her music career, Swift has appeared as an actress in the ensemble comedy Valentine's Day (2010) and the animated film The Lorax (2012). As a philanthropist, Swift supports arts education, children's literacy, natural disaster relief, LGBT anti-discrimination efforts, and charities for sick children. - Wikipedia

'Budapest' isn't on Now! 89 (it was on Now! 88).

 

Yeah I poorly worded my last comment...

 

Shake It Off plummeting now. No surprise but at least Blank Space is on the up!

This week's drop outs:

 

They must have miscounted the number of new entries

 

 

7. Gareth Malone's All Star Choir - Wake Me Up :lol: :lol: :lol:

 

 

:o :D

 

Was there any other #1 single to only spend two weeks in the top 40 (besides the Elvis re-issues)?

And has any other single spent its first two weeks in the top 10 and then dropped out of the top 40?

Streaming is really helping to get rid of Taylor fast! :cheer:
Did out of the woods not chart? :( So much better than welcome to Newyork.
