such a fab yet dance orientated chart x

A lot of the dance tracks are fading away now my holidays are over and summer is coming to a close - thanks James!

 

Hey Pete!

 

Wow at Boston Bun making number 1 :o that’s really flown up your Chart!!

Nice to see Lonely climbing nicely too :dance:

Fave new entry is probs Capricorn :music: Elderbrook really keeps delivering these bops omg

Nice to see Lying enter below the top 40 too, loooooove that, hope it climbs!!

 

Great Chart!

Oops all four you mentioned dropped this week :lol: Capricorn is growing a little though so could re-enter the Top 40 - thanks Jeff!

 

 

Hello Pete!

Surprised to see "Spread Love" at #1, but I'm also happy about it!

I'm also happy seeing "Nero Bali" debut in your top 40, such a good song!

Great chart as always!

Spread Love is an AMAZING summer dance tune, shame summer's coming to a close oops. Thanks Sergej!

 

Hi Pete, Suzi Island wuz robbed!

 

Nice to see Lost In Istanbul snaek in a bit higher than in my charts. Ditto Alan walker. As usual though, the vast majority I havent heard! :(

 

cheers!

john

Glad you like these - Show Me The Way deserved so much better but I am wondering whether I would've done any better with their newer song (Actor - it' entered my chart this week) Thanks John!

 

Hey Pete!

 

I'm afraid I'm not familiar with any of your new entries this week, and only really know one song in your Top 10 which is Paddington! I quite liked that when I first heard it but it hasn't really grown on me as much as I thought it would have. Still nice enough though.

 

Elsewhere it's good to see Blonde holding reasonably steady in your Top 20, shame that doesn't look like becoming a hit. Same can be said for Tom Odell I guess, that's easily one of his best.

 

Shame to see The Kooks' 'Four Leaf Clover' drop out of your chart now that I've finally go round to charting it!

 

Good stuff :)

If you were in BJSC you'd know a few of the entries, some are just my own discoveries though. Four Leaf Clover is only just outside the Top 40 so could re-enter when the album happens - thanks Mango!

 

Hey there Pete :hi:

 

Interesting #1, I was quite taken aback by that song when I heard it for the first time on Radio 1 a few months ago, just because "spread love like a Paddington Bear" felt like such a random dance hook :lol: but I've kinda embraced it now, why not tbh!! Elsewhere, my favourite new entry this week is the brilliant 'Capricorn' by Elderbrook <3 this is my introduction to his solo stuff and I clearly need to check out more off the back of that.

 

Great stuff ^_^

Commenting on the #1 and the #40 :o I think the hook was what got me into it, I love quirky lyrics in tracks, it makes me feel like music isn't always as serious as it makes out - thanks Jade!

 

Hi Pete,

 

It´s August :D

 

Great new entry by Dean Lewis.

 

Benny Benassi and Martin Solveig Climbing :cheer:

 

Bubbling under nice new entries from Alan Walker and Loud Luxury !!

Corrected last week's :magic: I don't know why I keep thinking it's July, time flies nowadays :lol: And Be Alright is at #1 now :D Thanks Sven!

Welp I forgot to comment last week there goes the streak :drama:

 

All this Amy Shark still in the chart but not All Loved Up - officially the next single :wub: Reminds me a bit of Lorde now I'm listening to it not on the album

 

Also yay at Dean Lewis going to #1! Aussie artists are doing so well in your chart right now ;o All... 4 (I think) of them anyway :kink:

 

Great chart :P

 

Hey Pete!

 

Favela is quite a big bop tbh, I could see it growing on me quite a lot

Don't Wreck My Holiday is a good tune too, but not on the level of NDTB or CYLM tbh :/

Nice to see Promises just sneak into the top 40! Hope it climbs here, it's really hit me this week for some reason, sooo funky and addictive :wub: would love it to make number 1 officially!

 

Great Chart!

 

Hi Pete,

 

Dean Lewis keeps the no 1 spot :cheer:

 

Best new entries: Ina Wroldsen/Alok and Calvin Harris/Sam Smith

 

Best entry bubbling under: GoodLuck/Boris Smith

 

 

hi Pete!

 

quite liked 'Favela' from a few listens I've given it, may make my chart in the future.

CLiQ climbing :dance:

'Don't Wreck My Holiday' is quite the tune, hope it does well in BJSC tomorrow.

'Promises' only at #40. :o hope it can climb here as it's another certified tune of his.

from your other new entries lower down I also like M-22, Purebeat and GoodLuck.

 

cool chart!

Hello Pete!

Nice to see "Clap Clap" gain, as well as seeing the new entry for "Promises"!

Great chart as always!

Hey there Pete :hi:

 

Going to get a streak of more than 1 this time, yay :kink: just gotta say that I'm pleased to see 'Promises' sneaking in this week! Sam sounds really good on the chorus which is refreshing as I found 'Too Good At Goodbyes' far too whiny last year. Up with his dance features *.*

 

Great stuff ^_^

Hey Pete!

40 [NE] Calvin Harris & Sam Smith - Promises (40-)

 

Good if a somewhat too much I don't know chart. The ones I do know and like are Fabulous though.

Hi Pete,

 

Nice number one in a sort of Lukas Graham stylee, the new Suzi Island is also not bad, though not as big a hook as Show Me The Way, the groove may be more in tune with 2018.

 

Yay at Promises in at 40, big climber for me this week that one, and good to see The Kooks return.

 

Suedey will be please to see FUR enter, it's bubbling about under my chart hoping for a space (it would be in the 76-90 range if I was doing a 100) :lol:

 

Good stuff!

 

cheers

john B-)

Hey Pete, hope you're well :)

 

'Favela' is a pretty decent track, I've really liked everything Ina had put out this year. It's got no chance of being a hit of course but I'm enjoying it!

 

Surprising to see the Calvin & Sam Smith track so low down, everyone else seems to be loving it. Personally though I think it's a weak track and I hope it doesn't get to #1, it's nowhere near the quality of the bangers he's put out in the past :( even One Kiss was much better!

 

Yet another great new song from The Kooks, I'm loving the witty chorus to 'Chicken Bone' :lol: judging by what they've put out so far the album is gonna be one of the albums of the year!!
