August 28, 20205 yr Except ACR didn't come "too quickly" - the track had already peaked, so ACR was used for its exact purpose! ACR isn't stopping it being a massive hit, it's just moving it down the chart. Well true, just seemed to fall abruptly and then fall even faster once on ACR compared to some other songs like 'Blinding Lights' or 'Breaking Me'.

Following her viral emergence in 2017, she released her debut EP, All The Things I Never Said, featuring the Billie Eilish and Finneas O'Connell co-write "Tear Myself Apart." Born Tate Rosner McRae in 2003, the Calgary native initially started out as a dancer at age six and studied at the Alberta Ballet. She entered her first dance competition in 2011 and later took the silver medal at the final round of the Youth America Grand Prix in New York City in 2015. Out of the competition, she earned a scholarship for a two-week intensive course at the Berlin State Ballet School. The following year, McRae competed on FOX's So You Think You Can Dance: The Next Generation, finishing in third place. Along with dance, she developed an interest in singing and acting, appearing as the voice of the rag doll Spot Splatter Splash in Nickelodeon's Lalaloopsy animated series. In 2017, she launched her own YouTube channel by posting a song she had written in one day. The video went viral and helped build buzz for McRae. More songs followed, and she eventually signed with RCA. In 2020, she released her debut EP, All the Things I Never Said. Included on the album was the the song "Tear Myself Apart," co-written by Billie Eilish and Finneas O'Connell. - iTunes Top 100 Chart History 2020 31 you broke me first -1- 0 x #1 | 0 x Top 5 | 0 x Top 10 | 0 x Top 20 | 1 x Top 40 | 1 x Top 100 Social Media Tate McRae http://i.imgur.com/1SERq1f.png
August 28, 20205 yr Why is 'Cardigan' falling relatively fast, is it not getting playlist support? tbh it's performing as I expected! It's not too commercial, the spotify playlisting is lowkey terrible (it's still on most the main playlists but v. low down) and I think the only radio playlisting it's getting are the Radio 1/2 stations + I think esp with the surprise album drop, more people are still checking the album out as a whole rather than going back to the lead single in a traditional sense aha! I hope they start pushing exile from next week (or two weeks at the latest), that's the smash of the album and cardigan has done its job so it's time to move on! (Tho knowing Tay's team the rest of the era will be a disaster like the last two </3)
August 28, 20205 yr Can The Weeknd have another hit from his album or has 'Blinding Lights' overshadowed that for him? imagine airplay will focus on the new one with calvin anyway now.
August 28, 20205 yr you broke me first is hitting me more and more with each listen :heart: Really hope it can become massive!
August 28, 20205 yr Well true, just seemed to fall abruptly and then fall even faster once on ACR compared to some other songs like 'Blinding Lights' or 'Breaking Me'. It's having a similar decline to songs like Say So, death bed, etc! And Breaking Me's making downward progress similarly now too. Blinding Lights is not really comparable as it's just a monster hit, in line with Someone You Loved and Dance Monkey in the top tier of hits from the past couple of years.

August 28, 20205 yr Why didn't they play that Abra Cadabra track? Was it because of the lyrics? No, they played it before, they just... chose not to today.

(Tho knowing Tay's team the rest of the era will be a disaster like the last two </3) Yeh 'Exile' is a real standout. All your points are correct too in terms of the genre and non-commercial nature of it plus a immediate album release does help as people check the whole body of work rather than individual singles.

August 28, 20205 yr Very odd they skipped a re-entry there, especially as they played it previously & it's re-peaked. This Eilish wannabe song can be flushed...
August 28, 20205 yr ^Cardigan is now like song #65 or something on Hot Hits :/ You Broke me First is starting to grown on me, still sounds a bit like a Billie Eilish copycat though
August 28, 20205 yr Breaking Me hasn't aged one bit :cheeseblock: Edited August 28, 20205 yr by ts7sfkptm
August 28, 20205 yr The East Rukahavian BJSC entry getting another chart play. Really pleased that this become a UK Chart hit.
August 28, 20205 yr First time ive heard that tate McCrae track, its very good actually. Thought for some reason it was more generic grime music.
August 28, 20205 yr No, they played it before, they just... chose not to today. I thought it was a new entry, but it debuted at 39 few weeks ago then it got knock off the top 40.
