A very convincing victory for Ella Henderson here with her Stevie Wonder / Coolio interpolation 'Alibi' with DnB production by Rudimental which looks like it could be a reasonably sized UK chart hit too.

Another week where I don't think I'll be returning to any of these songs (I guess I will hear Shygirl and Nia again in the ETOTW poll so will see if they grow but think they're both pretty mid by their artists' standards on first listen), D.O.D's is a nice enough piano banger though. The Robin song was ok too. Didn't mind the verses on the Becky song but Sonny is again bringing out the worst in his collaborators' vocals on the hook and the drop is pretty meh. Kungs is a mid remake. The production on the Wilkinson song is pretty jarring. The everything on the Kygo song is extremely jarring but I didn't need to listen to it to know that. If anything it's even slightly worse than I expected because I didn't really expect it to have Avicii style folk dance production. I hate how obvious it is that this is going to be rewarded with being a big hit despite just being a truly rotten prospect from the start.
