August 20, 20187 yr A very good start for Ariana Grande. I can see this album easily being one of the big Q4 sellers. Good to see Gabrielle's new album in the top 10 as well.
August 20, 20187 yr It is wonderful to see Gabrielle in the Top 10 but i am in ways overlooking it as i fear she will drop as the week progresses and be lucky to remain Top 15. That said, i would greatly welcome my fears to be proved wrong.
August 20, 20187 yr Hopefully Samvin Harrismith can make up the numbers and get to #3 this week, still think it's a very likely future #1. Great to see so many entries this week too, we are truly blessed!! Would be nice if at least one of the Aretha tracks holds on by Friday. Was thinking Drake would make it back to #1 now George is no longer on 59p but unfortunately that doesn't seem to be the case. Oh and of f**king course Juice WRLD is set to spend another week at #11 :rolleyes: He doesn't deserve the Bebe Rexha treatment!! Good to see Jess Glynne and The 1975 top 20, the latter most likely won't hang on but should at least outpeak 'Love It If We Made It'. 'In My Mind' is currently at #44 and once the streaming data catches up it should be on course to enter this week's top 40! :D 'Baby Shark' is also going to become an OFFICIAL CHART SMASH HIT (according to Alan Jones) as it's up to #60!!
August 20, 20187 yr That 1975 song :lol: Good start for Jess and should at least be one Aretha song finish top 40 perhaps?
August 20, 20187 yr That 1975 song :lol: Its ridiculous title aside, it's actually very good by their standards and hopefully gives them a long running hit a la The Sound/Chocolate. I think that's what they're going for anyway.
August 20, 20187 yr eastise is so high, yeah! 24 David Guetta feat. Anne-Marie - Don't Leave Me Alone omg hahaha
August 20, 20187 yr The video for Don't Leave Me Alone has also just been released, so that will give them a boost.
August 20, 20187 yr The title for 1975 track I keep on reading it as TOOT ME TOOT ME TOOT ME :lol: as its very hard to see the I in there, As a whole, the single charts looks a lot fresher than usual with quite a few new tracks At Juice WRLD :drama: And 'In My Mind' has to SMASH

August 20, 20187 yr Pleased to see Ariana heading for a comfortable #1 album and 'God is a woman' on its way back to the top 10. Drake to return to #1 plz x
August 20, 20187 yr Great sales for Ariana, thought it'd just reach 35k or sth but seems more like 45k which is fantastic for an international pop act these days (especially outside Q4) Edited August 20, 20187 yr by SKOB
August 21, 20187 yr That The 1975 title looks absolutely ridiculous. That said the track itself isn't too bad.

August 21, 20187 yr Here's one for the super obscure chart nerds brainboxes! If Drake does retake #1 when was the last time it went A-B-A-B at the top spot? Most of the time when a song returns to #1 it's different one that eclipses it the second time. Before I post this I do now realise that this isn't the case^ as Three Lions interrupted this pattern but I'm still intrigued all the same.
August 21, 20187 yr From scrolling through the Wikipedia lists, I think the answer may be the first time 'Three Lions' hit #1 :o 740 Baddiel, Skinner & The Lightning Seeds "Three Lions" 1 June 1996 1 741 Fugees "Killing Me Softly" † 8 June 1996 4 re Baddiel, Skinner & The Lightning Seeds "Three Lions" 6 July 1996 1 re Fugees "Killing Me Softly" † 13 July 1996 1 The last one before that I can see is almost 30 years earlier: 262 The Scaffold "Lily the Pink" 11 December 1968 3 263 Marmalade "Ob-La-Di, Ob-La-Da" 1 January 1969 1 re The Scaffold "Lily the Pink" 8 January 1969 1 re Marmalade "Ob-La-Di, Ob-La-Da" 15 January 1969 2 although the '70s and '80s lists don't show a single song returning to #1, and I'm honestly not sure if that's because they're grouped together, or if there really were no #1 returns in over 20 years. (You'd think the answer would be obvious but I suppose I've never paid enough attention.)
August 21, 20187 yr surprised at shotgun increasing its lead It's got a significant iTunes lead and is doing double In My Feelings on video streaming! Its small audio streaming deficit isn't enough to keep it off #1.

(Although I feel a bit bad if I've wasted your time scrolling through Wiki when I could have in fact just done the same thing :P) I always forget that Killing Me Softly was #1 across 2 runs!
