‘Words’ really struggling now and stalling in the #115 region on Spotify, not really seeming to be able to climb much further. Unsure if it actually will manage to peak in the top 40, I thought the HHUK add would really help it

 

 

It’s because it’s not on any other playlists to support it and there’s no radio support either so people still aren’t aware of the song really despite it being three months old.

Great to see Ghost now top 40. I'd imagine they'll be on board for making it officially a week Friday instead.

 

Yeah 'Words' like other songs suffering from not very decent HH placements which seems to be becoming a trend for songs peaking outside and not sneaking top 40 or songs not doing

better in it like Shawn and Dylan Conrique etc. I do think 'Words' could make it though even if not this week necessarily.

both the Fred Again and the Alesso/Zara songs, which are just outside the top 40 in the Mids, are on HH but too low,

if they were just a bit higher sure they'd go top 40...

Elton John & Britney Spears - Hold Me Closer

 

#2 on NMF :cheer:

Glad Britney has the cover but what the **** is track 1 on NMF? Only Spotify UK :wacko:

Britney / Elton also getting a huge push on Apple!

 

Id be surprised to see this not debut top 40!

This looks like it's coming for a huge debut to me.

I think it's coming for a top 10 debut.

What is with TikTokers and unwieldy double barreled names? I thought Lauren Spencer-Smith was a bit of a mouthful x

Fab to see big playlisting support for Elton/Britney. Really willing this to be a big hit for Britney as she hasn't had one for over a decade (also because of all her real life issues) and it looks to be too with the support coming in strong already.

Shock horror another D-Block Europe song

God help us

 

Doesn’t seem to be a huge amount of support for Guetta/Bebe so far on either Spotify or apple

 

Also just seen that DJ Khaled has an album out today, had no idea about that

I was also expecting more support for I'm Blue, since I saw it was track #3 on NMF AU

 

Ouch a new album by DK Khaled :o guess 7 more collaborations with Drake :D

 

All the talk about Britney and Elton potentially coming for top 10 and a big debut, I agree and tbh I wouldn’t rule out a #1, not necessarily in it’s first week but we all seen the expectations for cold heart and look where it ended up

They even had a news headline about the Elton/Britney release!

Definitely feels like one of the biggest music headlines of the year as her first release after the conservatorship. Let’s the hope the press translates to chart success.

 

That complex song is really nice - totally get why it is doing well on Tik Tok based on what they have recently helped do well.
