"7 rings" is a very depressing way indeed to start the new year. Boooooooooring.

 

I dont like 7 rings either.

I'm surprised at how well Westlife are streaming relative to other acts that have have been around that long in that genre.

 

Admittidley they are only #100 but no other pop act from the early 2000s seem to even break the top 200 on Spotify.

They were added quite high to HH

Same as Cheryl

And she also did similarly

How many other acts from the late 90s (like Westlife) or before then are even still charting with new singles (as opposed to Xmas relics or the likes of Bohemian Rhapsody?)

 

In 2018 we had Eminem and Kylie (with a low top 40). Was there anyone else? Even Take That's new single completely failed to chart.

 

Strange to think that there really aren't any hit-making acts who were around more than two decades ago left. In the 90s it wasn't unusual to see new material from 60s and 70s acts charting.

I think in the 90s radio were more open minded with who they played, and put more songs on their playlist.

 

Which is probably why it was easier for someone like Cher to make the mammoth comeback she did with 'Believe', you probably wouldn't get something like that today.

Same, Dua's new song is 20x better.

Close To Me not too far from top 20!!

Hope Mabel can push Halsey out of the top 10. She’s still refusing to leave the top 10 despite being on ACR

What replace Rita Ora - Let You Love Me

Surely Halsey isn't still top 10? 6-9 must be mark/Miley, post/swae, ariana & jax .

A cat and a fish, put them together what do you get

You're correct. Halsey is top 15.

When will TGS get dethroned :lol: still doing roughly 20k a week

Edited January 24, 20197 yr by 777666jason

Bring Me The Horizon should dethrone TGS next week

Im really disappointed that James Blake will miss the Top 5.

This time last week i had thought he was safe Top 5 and most likely Top 3.

His previous album opened with 6k so he would have had to improve a lot to go top 3.

Twilight Sad lost copies again. :')

Bring Me The Horizon should dethrone TGS next week

They should’ve released Friday just gone then they and Rudimental could have each had turns at the top

Rudimental won't be going anywhere Near number one

 

They may even miss top 10
