I think they're less than 3 yers old so should be on normal ratio

 

Talking of Euphoria, Lana del Rey has a new song called Watercolor Eyes featured in this week's episode, hope the Euphoria exposure is enough to make it chart!

It'd be fine if it actually went somewhere like it suggests it does but with it not doing so it's a mess.

Yeah it's a bit of a nothing-y song, it just goes nowhere. Belters only? More like hardly a belter.

I can't help but think their name must be deliberately ironic, or something.

Yeah it's a bit of a nothing-y song, it just goes nowhere. Belters only? More like hardly a belter.

 

I agree, it has a good vocal and builds up well but ultimately doesnt go anywhere, its missing that big climax which could have been achieved through some more euphoric synths or strings samples in the second half of the song.

And it's out this Friday and then 2 days after gonna be on the episode.

a Lana release on a Friday, thats not possible :D :D :D

Just noticed 'pushin P' now being back to the position it debuted at, has been rebounding pretty strongly in the last few days after initially dropping off quickly so may be on course to grow into a moderately big hit. As I'm sure BuzzJack will love. x (It's also risen to a new peak of #2 on US Spotify today, it debuted at #14 behind most of The Weeknd's album but it's now well ahead of everything from that).

speaking of the US chart, I'm surprised to see Super Gremlin has still barely made a dent in UK Spotify chart seeing as that's now US #3 behind Pushin P and Bruno

think that Gremlin song has been #1 on US Apple for ages

WDTAB has extended its lead at #1 today, definitely looks like it should be safe for the official #1 this week!

 

Amy Macdonald - This Is The Life popping up at #199 on Spotify today (and yes the mandatory YouTube comment check confirms it is for the reason we can all guess), another great choice of song to get at least a minor revival :heart:

This Is The Life is throwback love! Frankly criminal that it was saddled with a #28 peak!

love This is The Life, such a lost classic and the chorus is totally tiktok-esque :D

think the UK bought the album instead of the single, so at least the album went to #1 even though the single deserved a re-relese later when it become a massive hit all over Europe the following year.

I'm listening to it right now actually thanks to this thread. Hope it does a Frank Ocean even if there is no hope of a reset, would be good to see it getting a new wave of appreciation.

Love 'This Is The Life', saw Amy live about 4 years ago and she was brilliant :wub: yessss TikTokers!

Love TikTok hits, they are a great counterpart to labels buying the playlist positions and make charts more unpredictable.

I certainly do prefer it to when Hot Hits UK had a 100% monopolisation like it used to.

We've been lucky recently with the song being picked up by Tiktok

with Frank Ocean-Lost, Paloma Faith-Only love can hurt like this, Lana del Rey-Dealer, Amy McDonald-This is your life to name a few

 

but don't forget Tiktok has also brought terrible songs like Ferrari Horses and many of the recent D-Block Europe hits

Frank Ocean-Lost is doing incredibly well... right now:

 

Spotify:

UK - #8

US - #10

Global - #36

 

It's also at a new peak of #22 on Apple Music in the US and #25 in the UK. on Amazon, it's a bit lower at #124.

Old TikTok hits rarely affect charts though... but songs like Abcdefu and Fingers Crossed do. And it basically made Olivia Rodrigo the biggest breakthrough act of 2021.
