July 31, 20196 yr Great to see 3 Nights in the Top 10. Does that mean ‘Old Town Road’ is out of the Top 10?
July 31, 20196 yr Jax Rexha is now 59p on iTunes so hopefully that will help it into the top 40 on Friday
July 31, 20196 yr Great to see 3 Nights in the Top 10. Does that mean ‘Old Town Road’ is out of the Top 10? it's down to 12
July 31, 20196 yr Zero new entries FFS, what's the flipping point? There are contemporary bands that play the flipping O2 Arena and songs which Radio 1 and other big stations play to death that can't even crack the Top 100. Seriously starting to wonder if the singles chart should just be scrapped. There once was a time when you could tell how big a band was by simply looking at their chart positions. I might keep following the chart until we know whether Whitney is or isn't bagging a surprise posthumous #1 then just start completely ignoring it. It's no wonder so many people are posting their own here. In fact, only about 40-50 people ever contribute to this but I would imagine it's a pretty diverse range of people and is much more engrossing to follow, even if the generic GRM Daily landfill urban songs don't do as well. It's just a shame as songs simply having a Top 40 presence makes them seem bigger and more exciting. But almost everything is locked out. About 75% of the 2019 singles I like could be regarded as 'flops' if we use the Top 40 as a barometer of popularity, and it's depressing. In other news, I just found out I share a birthday with Octavian when trying to discover whether Bet made the Top 40. It didn't. #44 though, so an absolute smash in modern chart terms.

July 31, 20196 yr Interesting that Kaiser Chiefs sold 400 on Tuesday then double that on Wednesday... wonder why the spike in sales?
August 1, 20196 yr I won't even complain about no new entries this week if it means we get Higher Love or 3 Nights in the top 10...preferably both but I won't expect it!
August 1, 20196 yr ^exactly, and it's mid-summer, it's normal to have quiet weeks without big releases
August 1, 20196 yr The new Ariana Grande single comes on Friday anyway Id rather have no new entries than that at least ed waited 18 months to release something new

August 1, 20196 yr Sam Smith #12, Kylie #15, Kygo & Whitney still lengthening the gap between them and Sigala (#11), now up to ~900 copies from ~600 yesterday. Top 10 should be safe.
August 1, 20196 yr Higher Love must stay where it is now. Of Monsters and Men dropping back in each update but Kylie remains Top 15 and needs to stay there too.
