You want loads of new entries, you come back next week!

Seems the Alternative Now 123 effect has kicked in as I've been listening to it lots but at least I've done mine unlike the official people. If there isn't an official one for winter/spring 2026, I might have to call it 'Alternative Now 122.5' like I had to do for missing albums in 1985, 1986, 1987, 1990 and 1991 and that would be ludicrous.

Apologies for the bad AI artwork, I needed something to look at as a placeholder so I based it around my recent trip into the south Sheffield hills where I brought all these songs to life by people watching, being out in the fresh air and not sitting on this fecking stool.

Music always sounds better out of the house.

Time to let Think About Us rest I think but man that was a good run, only equalled by Wet Dream by Wet Leg (18 weeks) which had two stints because it was "re-issued"/sent to radio again.

There is no need for a song to be on a chart for any longer than that, eventually you just think "it's made its point!".

And Rein Me In is back again for obvious reasons, sorry.

Anyway, here's the chart.

Hi there Hiya!

Nice to see "Release The Pressure" at the top, "Two Hearts" n the top 10, the new peaks for "Iloveitiloveitiloveit" and "Ride", the returns for "Rein Me In" and the debuts for "Fever Dream" and "Silent Treatment".

Great chart!

Take care.

Hi Ya,

I really like "Release The Pressure", so happy to see it at #1. "Fever Dream" is my favourite Alex Warren song so far, so happy to see it entering.

Can't normally stand his stuff but this is quite uptempo, it has Rolling in the Deep vibes.
