With two versions of Rein Me In charting, plus the third version, I don’t think there is any chance that Bella Kay will overtake it this week in the Official Chart.

If Rein Me In isn’t at least number 2 by the Chart Update on Monday, I feel it will get there by Wednesday.

So I assume the final top 3 will be American Girls, Rein Me In and iloveitiloveitiloveit, but in which order? I think Rein Me In will take the crown.

The 'edit' version of 'Rein Me In' was already doing quite solid numbers per day according to Kworb when I checked the other week so I'm assuming it's been not that far outside the top 200 for a little while. The solo version by comparison is doing surprisingly little (Kworb's current numbers say the edit is doing 243k per day and the solo version only 42k - worldwide numbers of course. Also not sure if the numbers shown there are just for the most recent day it's tracking or if they're some kind of average).

Thinking it's gonna be another week for Sam anyway (unless Harry finds some real momentum during the week), hope Bella can get there soon but her momentum has slowed down a bit. The real question is if 'Rein Me In' can actually be the legitimate #1 for once... it's probably just about on par with 'Man I Need' on Spotify now when accounting for all of its versions.

Boo we dont need new RMI now 😂😂

It’s not new - the ‘edit’ was released months ago but seems to be getting traction now.

It was released at the same time as the regular (duet) version wasn't it?

He released shorter 'edit' versions of both 'Seventeen Going Under' and 'People Watching' as well - really catering to those with short attention spans x

Here for

Watermelon Sugar, As it Was, Sign of the times to get boosts and overtake the album tracks as he performed them on the ONO concert film

You can get the edit version on CD as that’s the version that appears on Now 122

Ain’t nobody buying a Now album in 2026 to get some song edit.

People do buy Now albums or those crappy budget compilations for certain songs. I buy compilations if they contain songs that I don’t already have. As a DJ, I prefer CDs or copy them onto a USB stick. DJs don’t use streaming platforms for music. I cancelled my Spotify subscriptions and I’m sticking to CDs. Nice uninterrupted ad free music there for life. Wait till a song you like is unavailable on streaming platforms. This is why CDs are better than streaming

Why is Spotify taking so long to update their charts lately?

Think there was a period last year where we didn’t get an update for 3 or 4 days in a row before they caught up

Now now , the Now series gets a massive sales of about 5k per edition nowadays you never know 😅

Am I the only one who's shocked the new Olivia Rodrigo isn't doing anything? It doesn't help that it's the last song on the album but I really thought her fanbase would be lapping it up on streaming. It's such a lovely song too!

Conspiracy theory: Spotify is frozen because its a playlist that generates huge numbers for those on it. With Harry's rapid 2nd day fall they want to maximise his sales by keeping him at the top of it. Why would they do that? Money. Yes, I am wearing a tinfoil hat, why do you ask?

really do miss the days (2024) where new mainstream releases would stick

Was suprised to see it scraping top 200 on itunes and even more suprised it hasn't troubled Spotify top 200 from curiosity alone isn't it her first bit of new music in nearly 2 years

She hasn’t posted about it, I imagine most of her fans don’t know it exists.

Bebe broke Spotify didn't she

Speaking of Bebe:

Apple Music

#44. Bebe Rexha & Faithless - "New Religion"

Comfortably top 40 on Apple taking into account the 3 track rule. Possibly even top 20 taking into account ACR as well.

Some Amazon positions of various songs:

#6. Bella Kay - "iloveitiloveitiloveit" (+#31)

#7. Alex Warren - "FEVER DREAM"

#16. Harry Styles - "Aperture"

#18. Harry Styles - "American Girls"

#32. Madonna - Into the Groove"

#36. Harry Styles - "Dance No More"

#47. Bella Kay - "The Sick"

#62. Dominic Fike - "White Keys"

#67. Bruno Mars - "Risk It All"

Can't see Bebe on Amazon yet although possible I missed it.

If I remember correctly, it's usually at the same times of the year and I *think* it could be something to do with the clocks changing?
