ADAM'S TOP 40 - (#155) - 29/08/2025

 

LAST TIME: Ava Max was my highest entry at #5 with Don't Click Play, and Tom Grennan climbed to #1 with Somewhere Only We Go. With many new albums and songs out recently, what will change?

 

This chart is based on what I'm vibing to this week and is purely based on my most played songs on a rolling four-week rotation, so could bring anything from last week's releases right down to anything released in the past! :D

Hi there Adam!

Nice to see "Don't Click Play" at the top, "Full Attention" in the top 10, the new peaks for "If He Wanted To He Would" and "Save My Love", the big gain for "Fast", the return for "Fortnight" and the debuts for "Goodbye", "The Dead Dance" and "Tears".

Great chart!

Take care.

Hey Adam 😄

Oh my god, it was amazing hearing everyone singing somewhere only we go at the concert. I loved it. It might very well be my favourite song by him. FYI for half the night the crowd were chanting, no Scotland - no party 😄

Plastic box is swiftly heading for the exit here which is unfortunate. 😝 I thought maybe it would spend a little longer in your top 10 though to be fair it'll probably climb again with the album.

If he wanted to he would is honestly just so good. I'm not much a fan of the other track she's got out just now though.

Wow, that drop for the subway. I am disheartened.

Tears is quite good but I prefer the verses to the chorus. The album is definitely a strong one in my opinion and many chikd is the best thing on there. Considering how well her last era went, I'm kinda confused at the lack of standouts on it.

Great re-entry for fortnight there. I think I loved it more than most on buzzjack. I'm so here for her new era. Bring it on.

Fantastic chart as per ♥️

Hey Adam,

Demi climbing!! A bop ❤️

Perrie almost Top10!! 🤗 Very good song!!

Ava N.1!! Love the song!! 😇

Hey James!

I'm so glad you loved Tom's concert, it's the third time I've seen him live and he puts on such a good show.

Plastic Box is still lush, it might climb today with the album release, never know! :D

IFWTHW is soooo good, just what I wanted from Perrie, tbh Cute Aggression is great too imo.

Agree with Sabrina, such promise and I just felt disappointed by the album

Thank you!

Hey Seltin!

Glad you love the hits for Demi, Perrie & Ava. I'm hoping Perrie climbs into the top 10 today. :)
