That's a mistake, right ?

I think his total sales are at 580k or something like that.

Yes sorry - have it on 594k so expect platinum next week

wow, have been crazy busy so only just caught up fully with week 4 and 5, thankfully Julian hasn't done week 6 just yet.

Out of week 5's entries, only 'One Dance' has made a year end before (#1 in 2016 and #80 in 2017). Given its poor ratio, I can't see 'Boys Don't Cry' holding on for the whole year, even though I would love it too.

Been a bit out of touch with the charts, but I still think 'Fame is a Gun' is a good shout to enter in week 6, which is asof week 5 the highest song on the Spotify YTD not in the OCC list following 'One Dance' and 'Boys Don't Cry' now entering here. That said we'll probably get some random old song instead.

I’m abroad so Week 6 will be delayed, but I’ll aim to get it done as soon as I can.

Very kind of you to take a holiday so that I could catch up with my predictions

I predict your week 6 prediction is wrong. 😝

It is at least a current hit entering though.

Olivia #1 without being #1, impressive. (Yes I know ACR)

I am once again nominating 'Fame is a Gun' to enter this week, is up to #57 on Spotify YTD. No idea what drops out tbh. Maybe 'Turn the Lights Off' or 'I Think We're Alone Now'.

Impressive total sales for Boys Don’t Cry?!

Olivia is now at around 383k/384k for this year so far.

Olivia coming for number 1 yet not being number 1 officially this year 🙌

Can't believe we are almost through February and nothing big has come along

“Love the Way You Lie” was #1 on the 2010 YE despite never making #1

Oh I know, was very unlucky that it was number 2 behind 3 or 4 different number 1s but it proved to be the most popular overall

And I know Olivia has made number 1 before thats why i said this year 🙌

To be fair Harry Styles has already released and most were predicting that to be a big #1, not just a one week wonder.

No new/re-entries is a surprise! Was underestimating One Dance and overestimating Riptide.

Mad that Olivia has such a lead and she isn't showing any signs of slowing down

One week Fame is a Gun will actually enter
