June 4, 20215 yr If my scrolling through charts serves me correctly I think ZITTI E BUONI is the first Eurovision song to spend more than one week in the Top 30 since Euphoria which is pretty impressive! Also I never thought I'd hear a sound like that of I WANNA BE YOUR SLAVE in the charts again in my lifetime save for random charity gimmicks :o Of course the questionable lyrics stop me from putting it on my playlist but hopefully this is a sign of better things to come in the charts!
June 4, 20215 yr hooray for Fred Again finally making top 40 this week! great to see Måneskin well inside the top 30 with both their songs too. Rasputin peaking at #11 is a big shame though especially with what is at #10. What's the chance of another version of 3 Lions, topping the charts very soon, with the UEFA EURO 2020 Tournament starting next week :lol: :D not much point of anyone making a new version of the song, when 2018 proved that people are very happy to stream the original. :P
June 4, 20215 yr Do you guys think that Kiss Me More will ever to go #1? Very unlikely. In an alternate reality where the Olivia album wasn't released it might have grafted to the top as Body faded but that's about the best shot it would have had. Shame really, it would have made a decent enough #1.

June 4, 20215 yr What's the chance of another version of 3 Lions, topping the charts very soon, with the UEFA EURO 2020 Tournament starting next week :lol: :D Depends on England's performance. Although worth noting that our best performance in the Euros was in 1996, which was the last time any of the games were held at home as the semis and final are scheduled to be this year... and when the original 3 Lions was released. Good omen? If we miraculously make the semi finals, 3 Lions is back at #1 without a doubt. :lol:
June 5, 20215 yr Yeeey at Stay Flee Get Lizzy back in the charts 3 years after the smash Ay Caramba! :cheer:
June 5, 20215 yr To this day I'm not exactly sure what the entity 'Stay Flee Get Lizzy' is meant to be. It definitely doesn't appear to be anyone involved with the actual music - I've checked the production credits and the three SFGL hits all have distinct producers, most of which are fairly big names - seems to just be used as an artist tag for the songs to promote the clothing brand Lizzy who I guess must be sponsoring the songs (similarly to 'GRM Daily' being used as an artist tag for songs that were 'commissioned' by the GRM Daily channel). In practice it might as well just be an alias of Fredo given that the songs with Fredo are the only ones that ever chart :lol:
June 5, 20215 yr Hooray! Marea made it! Maneskin having some staying power I hope Starstruck and Summer 91 hit the Top 20

We'll gloss over the result of the match.
