Love 'Aperture' ❤️

Harry will get another number 1 in March when the album drops

This week's Top 11 movements were almost identical to the week Madonna - Music entered at #1 with the previous week's Top 10 all down 1 place. Only 'So Easy (To Fall In Love)' and 'Lush Life' are the other way around!

Love to see the fast turnover once more

Well done to Harry, I’m impressed he went down this experimental lane while he’s at the peak of his powers. Here for the more electronic direction.

I'm shocked Aperture is Harry's third number 1 only

The "Fine Line" era is currently Harry's only era without a UK #1 single.

Future chart hit?

Biography

Noah Kahan pens tenderhearted meditations on life’s ups and downs that are rustic enough for country cabins yet infectious enough for the pop charts. The singer-songwriter was born in 1997 and grew up on a farm in Vermont. He spent his youth refining his folk picking on guitar, banjo and mandolin while transforming his voice into the raspy falsetto captured on his debut hit, 2017's "Hurt Somebody". Recorded while bouncing between New York, L.A. and points in between, Kahan’s first two full-lengths, 2019’s Busyhead and 2021’s I Was / I Am, showcase an artist sharpening his pop instincts. When the Covid pandemic hit in 2020, Kahan returned to Vermont and—feeling nostalgic for his New England childhood—stripped his music to its gritty soul, resulting in 2022's breakout album, Stick Season. He went on to reimagine several cuts, including a version of “Dial Drunk” featuring rapper Post Malone, that reflect a gift for shaping folk and pop into increasingly novel expressions. - Apple Music

Biography

Fredo is one of the United Kingdom's most popular rappers, consistently reaching the Top Ten with his albums and mixtapes. Hailing from West London's Mozart Estate, Marvin William Bailey lived the street life as part of the Harrow Road Boyz before he began translating his struggle-led lifestyle to the mic under the alias of Fredo. Delivering his verses in a blunt, almost effortless style, the rapper produces radio anthems and underground classics in equal measure, finding his biggest victory to date alongside Dave on the number one-charting "Funky Friday" (2018). The pair scored another major hit three years later with "Money Talks," while Fredo has continued releasing successful albums such as Money Can't Buy Happiness (2021) and Unfinished Business (2023). - Apple Music

I wonder if "Aperture" has done enough to dethrone "Man I Need" from #1.

I think it has the #1 even without ACR this week.

Comes to something when a generic Bruno song is the best song in the top 10

“Aperture” has a lovely vibe to it - definitely one of Harry’s best songs to date.

Aperture is shit be honest its only buzzjack where people like it 😅

Still extremely difficult for new music to breakthrough. Years ago songs would be starred out and removed after they had declined for a period.

They usually don't reset old songs if they won't make the top 40! The OCC rules make no sense
