September 8, 20214 yr We've had Last Christmas and Driver's License fall out of the Top 10 from No.1. Will Bad Habits do the same?
September 8, 20214 yr Personally, I think the lame dance tracks are way worse but it's all opinions. At least most of the important rap artists have a vision and they are creating something new. Edited September 8, 20214 yr by Sour Candy
September 8, 20214 yr I don't mind rap and dance in the charts but it would be really nice to have some guitar bands charting again - although I can't honestly see it happening anytime soon (apart from the odd song here and there like Maneskin).
September 8, 20214 yr yes, definitely indie is missing from the singles charts sad that indie artists can only chart if they become a tiktok
September 8, 20214 yr Personally, I think the lame dance tracks are way worse but it's all opinions. At least most of the important rap artists have a vision and they are creating something new. 100% agreed - the only truly great dance record this year (well of the house/trance variety) has been 'Marea (We've Lost Dancing)'. yes, definitely indie is missing from the singles charts sad that indie artists can only chart if they become a tiktok Billie Eilish says :hi:

September 8, 20214 yr but bare in mind Drake's streams are getting lower and lower every day next week he's against Manic Street Preachers, who have a very loyal fanbase that buys physicals their last album opened with 24K, which I doubt Drake can match next week And Steps! Could see them managing 20k too. We've had Last Christmas and Driver's License fall out of the Top 10 from No.1. Will Bad Habits do the same? I can't see it, it's still selling comfortably more than double the songs at the bottom of the top 10. Maybe more like 7/8?
September 8, 20214 yr 100% agreed - the only truly great dance record this year (well of the house/trance variety) has been 'Marea (We've Lost Dancing)'. Billie Eilish says :hi: I mean real indie, not Billie-indie ;)
September 8, 20214 yr I mean real indie, not Billie-indie ;) What was the last "real indie" song to make the top 10 as a matter of interest then? Think that's not going to happen in streaming era..
September 8, 20214 yr If we decide that anything Billie Eilish isn't indie, Måneskin definitely isn't as they won Eurovision and have streamed gigantic amounts... What would be indie?
September 8, 20214 yr If we decide that anything Billie Eilish isn't indie, Måneskin definitely isn't as they won Eurovision and have streamed gigantic amounts... What would be indie? I think some people are confusing the indie genre, with indie meaning unsigned here.
September 8, 20214 yr Indie I mean Vaccines, Biffy Clyro, Chvrches, Radiohead, Stereophonics, Travis, Bjork, PJ Harvey,... all these indie bands used to crack the top 40 ca. 10-15 years ago but cannot anymore Billie Eilish is difficult to define, might be a bit alternative but I wouldn't call her indie... same as Lana del Rey
September 8, 20214 yr I would definitely call Billie Eilish more adventurous and alternative than pretty much anything Stereophonics came out with but prob going off topic. Guitar music is making a comeback so who knows what comes in future charts!
September 8, 20214 yr We've had Last Christmas and Driver's License fall out of the Top 10 from No.1. Will Bad Habits do the same? Bad Habits will easily be Top 10 on ACR, maybe even Top 5.
September 8, 20214 yr The fact Sam Fender has been between 44-75 for the past 8 weeks shows indie has a chance if the artist is supported and is popular enough.
September 8, 20214 yr Different horses for different courses, to me that's one of the worst. Think the point is it’s not generic and sounds different to the Joel Corrys of this world.
September 8, 20214 yr Abba - OCC: 7. Don’t Shut Me Down 8. I Still Have Faith In You 5. Gold How long before another go round at the ABBA Teens is cooked up? :rolleyes: Edited September 8, 20214 yr by chartfridays
