I’m completely shocked that Summertime Sadness didn’t go #1!

 

Wait, wut?

Yikes at Ride It doing so well. The locals are out in full force today!

Vom. It really pisses me off that uninspired & generic dance songs like this can do so well with so much ease. Although it's probably had a similar career trajectory (I haven't been following it closely enough) it feels like Kygo x Whitney struggled and stalled a bit more to get to their peak!

Are you really bashing Regard as an uninspired and generic dance song while negatively comparing it against... Kygo, another low effort dance cover? :lol: (even if you think it's a better implementation of the formula as most people do it's still exactly the same thing).

 

Also yes it has had a similar chart trajectory, Kygo made the top 10 in his 5th week and Regard will be the same if it gets there this week (36-26-17-15-10-... vs. 69-45-25-15-... so far). Pretty certain Kygo got high up iTunes far faster than Regard as well, both have lagged a bit on streaming in comparison.

 

Whether or not they're any good it'd be nice if we had more big dance hits which weren't remakes of older songs, having 3 of those at once right now is a bit much.

Be careful what you wish for, unless you want some more 'Post Malone's in the chart.

 

(which is actually a bit of a bop ngl but I prefer 'Higher Love' and 'Ride It', though not so much 'Sorry')

Fair point xx

9. Sam Fender - Will We Talk?

 

Finally top 10!

 

:yahoo:

 

Should hopefully give him his first Top 40 this week as streams will pick up due to the album release.

33. Riton & Oliver Heldens - Turn Me On (feat. Vula)

20% fall for Ariana et al today!

Regard is gaining a lot, it's not all Ariana falling - Kygo has gone up from 0.46 to 0.56 in the last 24 hours while Regard has gone from 0.48 to 0.7.

Riton coming to possibly have an actual hit single :o (if this crosses over at all to streaming ofc).

edit: and of course after looking it up it's another dance song based on a sample of an older song lol.

 

Also did not realise 'Good As Hell' being anywhere near that high gah ~

How is Lizzo that high? :o

How is Lizzo that high? :o

Because she's talented and very good?

 

Really thinking CC liar is gonna be a NBTSA time hit in the long run hope it could do a havana but not sure this close to senorita

Is the same Riton as Rinse & repeat

A few years back?

Yeah, I did. I'm not saying it rewrites the genre or anything, but there is just something that bit more authentic with HL. I actually feel like it's the gospel-y feel you still get from it (and ofc Whitney's stellar vocals - Kygo really took care of it all, respectfully) imo.
