1. Doja Cat - Paint The Town Red

From the OCC:

 

Doja Cat is in the running for her first-ever UK Number 1 single this week with Paint The Town Red, which is predicted to climb to the top of the Official Singles Chart.

 

But there are less than 1,000 chart units separating Doja from her competition; Olivia Rodrigo’s Vampire (2), Taylor Swift’s Cruel Summer (3), former Number 1 Billie Eilish’s What Was I Made For? (4) and Peggy Gou’s It Goes Like (Nanana) (5).

 

Since breaking through during the pandemic with her Top 3, disco diva cut Say So, Doja has proved to be one of the most elastic and provocative new voices in pop. Her new material is a hard swerve away from the typical sonics of a pop star, with her forthcoming fourth album, Scarlet, apparently an entirely rap-based record.

 

Paint The Town Red is the second single from the LP, and it contains a sample of the Dionne Warwick standard Walk On By. Last week, Paint The Town Red reached a brand new peak of Number 4, which actually bettered the peak of Warwick's 1963 original.

 

Dance music continues to rise in the Top 10; Calvin Harris & Dam Smith could reach a new peak with Desire (6) and Chase & Status, Bou & Flowdan’s Baddadan is expected to enter the Top 10 for the first time (8).

 

Miley Cyrus’s emotional new single Used To Be Young is on track for a debut at Number 9, while Selena Gomez’s Single Soon is predicted to enter at Number 17.

 

Finally, Burna Boy and Dave’s link-up Cheat On Me could earn a brand new entry at Number 20.

They didn't build the tension before confirming the number 1 !!

How on earth is Dua #11 and Dave only #16

I make it that if Doja Cat is number 1 next Friday, it will be the 8th number 1 for the late great Burt Bacharach - his first number 1 was back in 1958.
