Presumably this version of I Run has been cleared by lawyers or whatever?

I’ve mentioned this on another forum, but the order of the Christmas Hits playlist on Spotify has changed again! 3 different 1st place tracks in under a week - with 5 different songs being amongst the first 2 tracks.

I think that puts 'Man I Need' in the top 10 for days at #1 on UK Spotify:

Alex Warren - Ordinary (128 days)

Wham! - Last Christmas (108)

Drake feat. Wizkid & Kyla - One Dance (101)

Dave & Central Cee - Sprinter (87)

Tones and I - Dance Monkey (81)

Noah Kahan - Stick Season (78)

Post Malone - rockstar (77)

Mariah Carey - All I Want For Christmas Is You (76)

Drake - God's Plan (75)

Olivia Dean - Man I Need (74)

Suprised NGD is outperforming FG when the later is arguably a bigger moment in the film

Come through EsDeeKid!

That extraordinary for Alex Warren!

MIN doing well and still 566k today, outstanding numbers and yet only one week at the top officially!

This will be its 11th week at #1 on Spotify compared to that one official week. Suspect it won’t get 12 next week due to Christmas but could see it returning after Christmas

Man I Need was so unlucky with ACR but that's life (and OCC rules).

There’s loads of official ones - at least 50 I’d say. As well as the usual Christmas Hits, etc, every genre has at least one, and some have several.

Had to do a double take here, the singer on the 'Sympathy is a Knife' remix appearing on a diss track supposedly inspired by that song would be unexpected

Thanks for the update though - some strong rises for the Wicked songs on both Spotify and Apple today!

Yeh I decided to update all the wicked songs so that’s all the ones in the top 100!

Apple's order of Christmas songs definitely seems more in line with British tastes than Spotify's! Shaky above Mariah 😲
