Monday at 13:041 day I assume whenever sales only is advocated, it's by someone who's unaware of the culture war nonsense that constantly plagues it, otherwise...🤔
Monday at 13:081 day Surely we don’t really think the charts should be dictated by a few gays aged 30-50 having a bit of fun instead of by what the country is listening to… I know many of us are in that demographic but really.

Glad sales are so low and they don't affect the main chart!

Monday at 13:191 day Anyone know why Energy by Tinie Tempah is at number 2, has this been re-released?

Only contains some data and it's not remotely clear how they manipulate the data, let alone the fact it includes airplay.The Radio 1 chart is the only official chart.

The official chart hosted by radio 1 and the only chart discussed on here takes real streaming, sales, download figures to make up an accurate chart. The official big top 40 doesn’t do that, whatever data it uses isn’t accurate data like the official chart.
Monday at 13:231 day Come on, let’s be honest! Is the new track by Harry Styles really worth being at No.1?And yes, I’m saying this as someone who’s already pre-ordered the new album...

It's fantastic and he should be commended for doing something this bold and interesting. Unlike certain other artists who stick to a predictable formula and get number one with it.

Monday at 13:301 day I’ll be honest when I was younger I used to listen to the chart show on my local radio station and think it was real, this was before I understood anything about streaming etc, once I got to understand this more and discovered this forum I realized it’s fake along with all the other wannabe chart shows and only followed the official chart since

As for Harry Styles I find it musically smart but anti-radio and second-tier for a lead single. And I love him generally but …No it has saved the charts.

If you are constantly seeking conversation and information on the big top 40 I think you are on the wrong site 😂

That is fine as long as there is something that is when he drops the album in March
