Happy New Year!

Normally, the festive tunes would be disqualified by now but come on, it's Kylie.

She may be strangely absent next week though.

Making the rules up as I go along like the OCC but generally I go back 30 days and work it out from there.

Plus, RIP Chris Rea!

Hi Hiya!

Nice to see "Elevate" in the top 2, "Driving Home For Christmas" and "Century" in the top 10, "Church" and "Merry Xmas Everybody" in the top 20, the new peak for "The Treadmill" and the debuts for "Even The Bad Times", "Who's Dat Girl?", "Love Who You Love", "Chanel", "Count The Ways" and "'06 Wayne Rooney".

Great chart!

Take care.

Hiya.

It's good to see Kylie get to #1 🥳🥳 I'm not delisting it until next week so we'll see what it's official peak is on my chart on Sunday when my new one drops.

That's a great climb for church. Are you using last.fm to track your listen count? It lists church the same way for me with the alternating caps in the title lol.

Raindance has finally hit me and what a good time for that too happen too with it's return to the official top 10.

Bye bye Katy. I do really quite like bandaids but it would be nice to see her try something poppy again for single #2. Imagine if she'd released Plastic box? That's oukd have been a smash I reckon.

Fab stuff. 🥳

Yep, I go by this!

And I go back 30 days as that gives me the most sensible results.

If I only went back 7 days the chart runs would be ridiculous. Songs would go 1-OUT-3-20-9-OUT-9 etc.

Tried 14 and 21 too but they didn't quite work for me!

When there's a tie (10 songs on 9 streams etc) I kind of rank them in the order that I can be @rsed with them at that particular moment in time.

I use last.fm too but I use 5 weeks as a base.
