Instead, the Swedish singer feels most on point when she’s able to “just feel it.” Larsson’s ability to convey that mix of youthful confidence and emotional intensity helped make her one of Europe’s biggest new music stars while she was still in her teens. Born in 1997 in a suburb of Stockholm, Larsson first found fame in Sweden when her performance of Céline Dion’s “My Heart Will Go On” clinched her victory on a TV talent show at the age of 10. After leaving school to focus on her music full time, she released her debut album, 1, in 2014, which topped the charts throughout Scandinavia and landed her a U.S. record deal. By the time she was scoring international hits alongside rapper Tinie Tempah on “Girls Like” and guesting on David Guetta’s “This One’s for You”, she was fast developing beyond the familiar dance-pop templates and demonstrating a boldness that evoked Beyoncé and Rihanna, two of her biggest influences. (She paid tribute to another inspiration a few years later when she released a sumptuous cover of Robyn’s “With Every Heartbeat”.) “Never Forget You”, a thrilling collaboration with singer and producer MNEK that also marked Larsson’s first songwriting effort, became her first major U.S. success. Together with the album So Good, the song established the power and allure of Larsson’s sleek yet impassioned brand of EDM-powered pop. - Apple MusicTop 100 Chart History2015 05 Never Forget You (MNEK & Zara Larsson) -1- MILLIONAIRE2016 03 Lush Life -2- MILLIONAIRE2016 05 Girls Like (Tinie Tempah feat.

The track and follow-up "Lonely" became the centerpieces of her debut EP sick to my stomach, released that fall and promoted by a tour with Liberian-born folk singer Mon Rovia. Kay entered more upbeat (but still heartfelt) territory with her next harmony-stacked single, 2026's "iloveitiloveitiloveit." - Apple MusicTop 100 Chart History2025 33 The Sick -1-2026 02 iloveitiloveitiloveit -1-2026 49 Steady -AT-0 x #1 | 1 x Top 5 | 1 x Top 10 | 1 x Top 20 | 2 x Top 40 | 3 x Top 100Social Media Bella Kay

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 MusicTop 100 Chart History2023 32 Dial Drunk -3-2023 83 Call Your Mom (Noah Kahan & Lizzy McAlpine) -4-2023 01 Stick Season -1- MILLIONAIRE2023 95 She Calls Me Back (Noah Kahan & Kacey Musgraves) -5-2023 16 Northern Attitude (Noah Kahan & Hozier) -2-2023 60 You're Gonna Go Far -AT-2023 72 Everywhere, Everything (Noah Kahan & Gracie Abrams) -6-2024 05 Homesick (Noah Kahan & Sam Fender) -7-2024 31 Forever -AT-2024 84 Cowboys Cry Too (Kelsea Ballerini & Noah Kahan)2026 10 The Great Divide -1-2026 19 Porch Light -2-1 x #1 | 2 x Top 5 | 3 x Top 10 | 5 x Top 20 | 7 x Top 40 | 12 x Top 100Social Media Noah Kahan-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------16 | 16 | 17th weekElla LangleyChoosin' Texas1st single from DandelionReleased: 17th October 2025Label: SAWGOD Records / ColumbiaChart StatisticsNE (15/01/2026) | 78-73-71-51-38-35-35-35-35-35-33-32-29-16-13-16-16Sales: 200,000+Certification: SilverStatus: Standard Chart Ratio05 Sales27 Audio Streaming13 Video StreamingVideoBiographySteeped in classic country, contemporary pop, and rootsy Southern rock, Ella Langley's songs showcase her unfiltered songwriting and gritty yet honeyed voice.

Although Giuditta Gazza was the singer on the recordings, a model, the Egyptian-born and German-raised Sabrina Elahl, was used for the music video for the "Just the Way You Are" single. The same model was used for the vinyl cover. Elahl's voice did not appear on any of Milky's recordings, where all songs were sung by Giuditta. Giuditta can be seen on the "Be My World" 12" cover as well as in the video for "In My Mind". Two of the tracks from Star eventually became hits in the United States; "Just the Way You Are" reached the number one position on the Billboard Hot Dance Airplay chart in 2002. The track also reached No. 8 on the UK Singles Chart. In September 2005, "Be My World" peaked at number 6 on the Hot Dance Airplay chart and also charted in Sweden. - WikipediaTop 100 Chart History2002 08 Just The Way You Are -1-2002 48 In My Mind -2-0 x #1 | 0 x Top 5 | 1 x Top 10 | 1 x Top 20 | 1 x Top 40 | 2 x Top 100Social Media Milky

May 1May 1 Author 14 | 13 | 8th weekHarry StylesAmerican Girls2nd single from Kiss All the Time. Disco, Occasionally.Released: 6th March 2026Label: Erskine RecordsChart StatisticsNE (19/03/2026) | 1-3-4-4-8-10-13-14Sales: 200,000+Certification: SilverStatus: Standard Chart Ratio01 Sales03 Audio Streaming06 Video StreamingVideoBiographyNot everyone gets famous as a teenager—and even fewer escape the experience intact. So congratulations to Harry Styles, who would’ve been fine had he retired after One Direction but instead went on to become one of the more interesting and adventurous pop stars of his era. “I think there’s a lot of things that used to feel like, Okay, there’s a part of your life, then there’s a hard stop, then there’s a next part of your life,” he told Apple Music around the release of 2022’s Grammy-winning Harry’s House. “Things that used to feel so unbelievably foreign to me, sort of terrifying—like, I’m not 19 anymore, so I’m less terrified. And realising [life’s] just one thing, and not chapter over, bye-bye.” Perspective: It helps, whether you’re out there in front of 50,000 people or performing the very first Apple Music Live session. Part of what made One Direction great was that they never shied away from the pleasures of boy-band pop but never patronised their audiences, either: Never mind the no-dancing policy; they wrote their own songs and cultivated their own musical perspectives. Beyond his precision-tooled indie-curious pastiche of classic pop, soft-rock, psychedelia and soul, Styles’ lyrics capture a playfulness and emotional specificity that feels unusual for pop so big, whether it’s the flirtation of “Music for a Sushi Restaurant” (“Green eyes/Fried rice/I could cook an egg on you”) or the image of a kid outrunning an unhappy home on “Matilda” (“You were riding your bike to the sound of ‘It’s No Big Deal’”). That life he’s pontificating about? Listen to the music and you can almost hear him living it. - Apple MusicTop 100 Chart History2017 01 Sign Of The Times -1- MILLIONAIRE2017 46 Sweet Creature -IG-2017 51 Carolina -AT-2017 58 Two Ghosts -2-2017 64 Meet Me In The Hallway -AT-2017 66 Kiwi -3-2017 80 Only Angel -AT-2017 87 Ever Since New York -AT-2017 99 Woman -AT-2019 03 Lights Up -1-2019 04 Watermelon Sugar -4- MILLIONAIRE2019 07 Adore You -2- MILLIONAIRE2019 15 Falling -3- MILLIONAIRE2020 26 Golden -5- MILLIONAIRE2022 01 As It Was -1- MILLIONAIRE2022 02 Late Night Talking -2- MILLIONAIRE2022 03 Music For A Sushi Restaurant -3-2022 37 Matilda -AT-2023 18 Satellite -4-2026 01 Aperture -1-2026 01 American Girls -2-2026 05 Ready, Steady, Go! -AT-4 x #1 | 9 x Top 5 | 10 x Top 10 | 12 x Top 20 | 14 x Top 40 | 22 x Top 100Social Media Harry Styles
