Hope OR can hold at No. 1, though she may have to pull a few tricks to do so.

Wasn’t expecting that for The Chemical Brothers (but here for it!), I thought they had started declining in streaming - hopefully at least a Top 5 on lock.

How big of a lead did drop dead have at this point?

I can’t remember exactly but didn’t they drop 10 download versions available for a week on iTunes for DD to ensure it remained ahead of RMI at the time? So they might do something similar if they think they have a chance to secure the #1.

The sales must super close from #3 onwards. Go is down to #30 on Spotify yet #3 in the mids.

A figure wasn’t given for the First Look, it was considerably ahead on Mondays update.

01 Olivia Rodrigo - drop dead (25,595)

02 Sam Fender & Olivia Dean - Rein Me In (17,886)

She's unlikely to so it then with such a short lead well damn

Lush Love for #1 Its got that summer vibe, ha ha

Olivia Dean has her Radio 1 concert tonight . that could be helpful for her weekly numbers.

'Go' in the top 3

That was to secure the #1 in the US, nothing to do with 'Rein Me In'.

Your comment on new comments made me think 'Go' was taking off in the US chart for a moment there.

If people are watching on iPlayer initially; I'm not sure of viewing numbers these days let alone people watching afterwards on there/YouTube.

The BBC Two airing doesn't go out until 10:45pm.

Hope RMI can just remain at no1 if Olivia is a one week wonder like her previous song.

Another week at number one fot Olivia, then.

Well they were available to buy here - not that they were needed but my point was they could do it again if they felt the need.

More and more it seems to be less of a boost from TV views and more so if artists turn them into social media posts/content.

I think looking at that Rein Me In would be the front runner to get #1 this week then.

Contrary to rumours there was no Rein Me In duet at R1 Big Weekend. It doesn’t look like it was in the setlist at all.

Same as her whole tour then! She only performed it when she brought Sam out for it aside from that it wasn’t on her setlist! Though I guess it doesn’t matter if she did or didn’t as it’s a bank holiday weekend with good weather and rein me in is already increasing from last weekend on streaming 😭

Amazing really the success it’s had - it’s only ever been performed 4 times live - twice a year ago on Sam’s tour and twice recently in London on Olivia’s tour and nowhere else.
