ADAM'S TOP 40 - (#164) - 16/01/2026

 

LAST TIME: Cynthia Erivo was my highest entry at #03 with No Good Deed, and Taylor Swift returned to the top with The Fate of Ophelia at #1. It's a new year, so who is still slaying their way into 2026?

 

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

16/01/2026 | JADE - Church

Hi there Adam!

Nice to see "Church" at the top, "Frozen" in the top 10 and the return for "Opalite".

Great Chart!

Take care.

Hey Adam!

It's good to see church hit #1 for you this week. On tomorrow's chart, we should be snapping 🙌

The fate of Ophelia continues to do very well here and I am very glad about that. I am still so enamoured by the song.

Oooo, a sneaky reentry for plastic box. It should never have left to be honest 🤣

Good stuff 🥳

Hey Adam,

Wish List back!! It's one of my favourites on the album 😊

Use Me Top5!! It's a bop ❤️

Awesome Top2!! My 2 faves from the encore 😍
