It’s a good song and it deserves #1 more than that nobody

In your opinion maybe

I listened to 29 seconds of it and it sounded so dull

That's the beauty of opinions and tastes if we all had the same would be very boring, I prefer the Giver but hey ho Alex is more popular

Listen to the full song and then maybe you'll have more of a leg to stand on...!

(I say that as someone who prefers The Giver to Ordinary but am a little over the nastiness towards Alex Warren lol)

I'm no fan of Ordinary but no one can judge a pop song in 29 seconds,

you probably haven't even reached the chorus by then lol

Probably stopped at 29 seconds to avoid it getting an eligible stream 🤭

Well for 1 this is Alex's 4th hit but netherless everyone artist is a "nobody" to start with and this time last year Chappell was at the what you would consider as "nobody" stage probably even more so

The Giver has really grown on me this week , a top 3 position isn't too shabby though

Debuts at number 5 here in Ireland at number 5 with pink pony club a non mover at number 2 and good luck babe climbing 3 to 6 so 3 songs top 6 is a great week for her.

#2 in the UK.

I wanted her to get it so she'd have a "legitimate" #1 to her name (i.e not just there by default because of ACR)

Another number 2 for her, she is building her discography up nicely.

Shame she didn’t release the song a week earlier

Why are you constantly so obsessed with artists releasing songs a week earlier or two weeks later or whatever? You seem to say that about a song every other week. There's no point going over the ifs and whats of single releases, you could take almost any single and make it achieve a better chart position by releasing it in a different week to when it was released. But I just don't see the point!

Hmmm wish it got to #1 but I don’t think it eventually getting there is out of the question yet.

But also if released a week earlier

It wiuld have been against Gagas album

So sure it would have had less streams

Sure Gaga & Chappell share fans that were busy streaming Gaga and would have missed Chappel

So you really dont know

Pretty sure she would have missed too

Most songs don't even peak first week anyway there's still plenty of time for it to rebound

This is great, my second fave of hers after Red Wine Supernova.

'Midwest Princess' is top 20 albums of all time for me at this point but I cannot click with this at all, a huge misfire from her sadly :(

"The Giver" has been certified Silver in the UK, becoming Chappell's 8th certified song in the region.
