With keyboardist Benny Andersson and guitarist Björn Ulvaeus as the songwriting geniuses and Anni-Frid Lyngstad and Agnetha Fältskog providing the vocal power, ABBA turned pure pop into high art, becoming one of the biggest groups on the planet. Before forming in Stockholm in 1972, Anni-Frid and Agnetha had been successful solo artists in Sweden, while Björn and Benny had been working as a duo; they became two married pairs as well as musical partners. The title track from their second album, 1974’s Waterloo, won the Eurovision song contest that year and became an international smash, introducing the world to ABBA’s seamless, epic production style (Phil Spector’s Wall of Sound taken to a celestial level), soaring melodies, and earworm hooks. ABBA owned the rest of the ’70s, scoring with blockbusters like the aching power ballad “Fernando,” the disco anthem “Dancing Queen,” and the sophisticated tapestry “Take a Chance on Me,” racking up multiplatinum sales, monopolizing pop radio worldwide, and becoming the mainstream pop stars it was cool for rockers (even Elvis Costello) to love. By the time of their final album, 1981’s The Visitors, both couples had broken up, and their formerly cheery tunes took a darker turn musically and lyrically. After 1982 they didn’t perform together again until a one-off at a party in 2016. Later, tantalizing announcements of new material in the works began. But as fans endured the wait, the theater and movie musical Mamma Mia! and the undying popularity of ABBA’s classics guaranteed them a continued place in pop culture. - Apple Music Top 100 Chart History 1974 01 Waterloo -1- 1974 32 Ring Ring -1- 1975 38 I Do, I Do, I Do, I Do, I Do -1- 1975 06 SOS -2- 1975 01 Mamma Mia -3- 1976 01 Fernando -1- 1976 01 Dancing Queen -1- MILLION SELLER 1976 03 Money, Money, Money -2- 1977 01 Knowing Me, Knowing You -3- MILLIONAIRE 1977 01 The Name Of The Game -1- 1978 01 Take A Chance On Me -2- 1978 05 Summer Night City -NAS- 1979 02 Chiquitita -1- 1979 04 Does Your Mother Know -2- 1979 03 Angeleyes / Voulez-Vous -3- 1979 03 Gimme!

September 10, 20215 yr Wow this was hammered a bit by the end of week streaming! Fingers crossed for Don’t Shut Me Down.
September 10, 20215 yr Looks like ABBA is out of the top 10 with the missing data?! if this one is as low as 14!
September 10, 20215 yr Memories of 1975 - Too Shy here. One of my favourite songs of the year is released on a super-busy week so only peaks at #14! Edited September 10, 20215 yr by rio309
September 10, 20215 yr Oh 14, that’s a big drop from the mids. Such a beautiful song <3 I guess going top 15 even is such a huge achievement for a band in their 70s in the streaming era.
September 10, 20215 yr I was wondering how the ABBA tracks would do, the lack of a Thursday update made it difficult to tell.
September 10, 20215 yr The other song was doing double this one on streams by end of the week. Pleased R1 have played this in full (at least a full radio edit) despite it missing Top 10
September 10, 20215 yr 13 | 08 | 6th week Billie Eilish Happier Than Ever 6th single from Happier Than Ever Released: 30th July 2021 Label: Darkroom / Interscope Records Chart Statistics NE (12/08/2021) | 6-4-5-6-8-13 Sales: 100k+ Certification: - Status: Standard Chart Ratio 30 Sales 05 Audio Streaming 07 Video Streaming Video 5GJWxDKyk3A Biography When singer-songwriter Billie Eilish feels something new, the first thing she does is take out her phone and write it down. “You can write anything,” she told Apple Music in an interview for the Up Next series. “You can say the truth, and you can not tell anyone that it’s the truth—you can just write it, and it’ll be yours.” Raised and homeschooled in Los Angeles by actor/musician parents, Eilish (born Billie Eilish Pirate Baird O'Connell in 2001) started writing songs when she was around 11, exploring a strain of melancholy, minimal and slightly surrealistic pop influenced as much by Lana Del Rey as the radical honesty of rappers like Tyler, the Creator and Earl Sweatshirt. Writing and recording with her brother—and producer—Finneas O’Connell at their parents’ house, Eilish released dont smile at me in 2017, followed by an ever-evolving series of singles—a prime example of the fact that, in the streaming era, artists are now free to move directly from their bedrooms into the spotlight. Despite the attention, Eilish is doing her best to stake out a space of freedom and fluidity, expanding her range of collaborators (Vince Staples, Khalid) and dodging easy definition. “If people think I have a sound, if people are like, ‘Oh yeah, her sound is this,’ if someone asks you what my sound is and you have an answer for them—you’re wrong,” she told Beats 1’s Zane Lowe. “Instead of trying to find a sound, when I want to make something and when I have an idea of what I want to make, I’m just going to make that.” - Apple Music Top 100 Chart History 2018 47 lovely (Billie Eilish & Khalid) -3- MILLIONAIRE 2018 21 when the party's over -2*- MILLIONAIRE 2018 72 ocean eyes -1- MILLIONAIRE 2018 47 come out and play -NAS- 2019 78 idontwannabeyouanymore -AT- 2019 79 bellyache -2- 2019 06 bury a friend -3*- 2019 13 wish you were gay -IG- 2019 02 bad guy -4*- MILLIONAIRE 2019 60 you should see me in a crown -1*- 2019 77 all the good girls go to hell -5*- 2019 03 everything i wanted -NAS- 2020 01 No Time To Die -OST- 2020 07 my future -1- 2020 02 Therefore I Am -2- 2021 35 Lo Vas A Olvidar (Billie Eilish & ROSALÍA) -OST- 2021 05 Your Power -3- 2021 14 Lost Cause -4- 2021 23 NDA -5- 2021 04 Happier Than Ever -6- 2021 28 Getting Older -AT- 2021 32 Oxytocin -AT- 1 x #1 | 6 x Top 5 | 8 x Top 10 | 10 x Top 20 | 15 x Top 40 | 22 x Top 100 Social Media Billie Eilish http://i.imgur.com/1SERq1f.png

September 10, 20215 yr 12 | 07 | 2nd week Kanye West Hurricane 1st single from Donda Released: 29th August 2021 Label: Atlantic Recording Corporation Chart Statistics NE (09/09/2021) | 7-12 Sales: 20k+ Certification: - Status: Standard Chart Ratio __ Sales 09 Audio Streaming __ Video Streaming Video bPjZmQAvk_8 Biography Few artists have had as deep an impact on pop culture as Kanye West. Raised in Chicago by his mother, an English professor, West (born in 1977) initially studied to be a painter while making beats on the side—a multidisciplinary drive that came to mark his career. After contributing production to a series of increasingly high-profile projects (including work with Foxy Brown and the Mase-fronted Harlem World), West broke through in 2001 with his work on JAY-Z’s The Blueprint, producing and cowriting some of the album’s biggest songs (“Izzo [H.O.V.A.]”, “Takeover”). His chopped-and-pitched, sample-heavy “chipmunk soul” sound would define rap for years after. He launched his MC career with 2004’s The College Dropout and hasn’t looked back, releasing a string of groundbreaking—and often self-contradicting—albums, each of them a pacesetter for the culture around it. From the baroque grandeur of My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy to the punk fragments of Yeezus, from the social commentary of The College Dropout to the confessional summits of 808s & Heartbreak, West has always been at the leading edge, tirelessly expanding his scope and sound—and shifting everyone else’s playing field in the process. Much of that comes from his gift for listening, for orchestrating: Over the course of his career, he has absorbed sounds and styles from the underground—whether Chicago drill, UK bass music, or Bon Iver’s postmodern folk—and reimagined them, changing the course of the mainstream along the way. An outspoken figure (to say the least), West has shattered countless stereotypes about who rappers are and what they do, taking stances against homophobia and gangster posturing, offering multidimensional portraits of women and some bracingly reductive ones, advancing social causes one minute and declaring himself a god the next, controversially getting the attention of not one but three sitting presidents, and playing both the face and the heel. His vision hasn’t stopped at music. Always interested in fashion, West has designed for Nike, Louis Vuitton and Adidas, as well as his own Yeezy Season line, reconciling the utility of streetwear with the playful tangents of haute couture. He’s also dabbled in sculpture (the infamous silicone figures from 2016’s “Famous” video), as well as announced his intention to move into architecture and prefabricated home design (Yeezy Home). Even when his experiments don’t quite land (in 2018, he claimed he was writing a philosophy book in real time on Twitter), there’s an ambition—and audacity—in West’s work that feels hard to deny. What we’re left with isn’t just a strong back catalogue, but a seismic shift: the evolution of hip-hop into high art. - Apple Music Top 100 Chart History 2004 09 Through The Wire -1- 2004 03 Slow Jamz (Twista feat.

September 10, 20215 yr Looks like ABBA is out of the top 10 with the missing data?! if this one is as low as 14! The other one was streaming a lot better so I'm confident it can make it.
