I do wonder what Taylor Swift is going to do if her record label doesn’t exclude one of her current hits from the chart, otherwise the latest track can’t enter (3 track per artist minimum). I think they should exclude Gorgeous so she can rack up another top 20 hit pre album release

Its the 3 highest which chart, so it will chart as long as it outsells one of the other 3

Streaming was 92.25% of the total singles market this week - a record yet again.

 

Let's have a look at the streaming chart for 30/12/2016 (which takes into account the festive streaming period): http://www.officialcharts.com/charts/audio.../20161230/7507/

 

Yeah, I think the Christmas songs will do ok.. :P

 

I'm of course fine with Xmas song doing well for a week or two but not 7 weeks LOL and that's why I'm glad the streaming audience doesn't care just yet.

Neither do the bigger audience yet - I'm sure Mariah was at no350 in this weeks chart but they are building :)

Dirty Sexy Money has been reduced to 59p. No joke.

33. David Guetta & Afrojack - Dirty Sexy Money (feat. Charli XCX & French Montana)

10. Katie Melua - Fields of Gold

 

Future number 1?

Good to see Katie Melua back on the singles chart.

Any SLFN effects this week?

Katie Melua's track is a cover version of Sting's hit, a really good take of it actually.

Katie Melua returning to the Top 40 after 7.5 years :o

09. Fields of Gold

 

How??

She was on BBC breakfast news this morning which has maybe helped a bit

Any SLFN effects this week?

193. Dizzee Rascal - Bop N Keep It Dippin

417. London Grammar - Hell To The Liars

 

So no, not really :lol:

58. The Vamps - Personal

Katie Melua coming for that 2nd number 1 with a cover of another Eva Cassidy cover!!!!

Oh, maybe I underestimated her. I just assumed she would do nothing as she hasn't been relevant for years.

She'll still do nothing overall as she will get like 5 streams lol ~ but that isn't a bad showing on iTunes. Having said that, IIRC Craig David's CIN single got to #2 on iTunes and still missed the top 40 oop.

think the katie melua cover of fields of gold is not on spotify, wasn't there last time i checked

98. Fredo - Change

201. Wiley - I Call The Shots (feat. JME)
