As recurrency rules smite out the oldest songs on the charts, some of which will permanently bid farewell, SOUR celebrates its 5th anniversary and both it and some other Olivia tracks cause the charts to have far less survivors and climbers than expected (although a final exam causing my streams to take a dip across the board definitely ain't helping anyone).

Meanwhile, the newest Olivia song, though with an incredibly messy and mixed first impression, manages to grow on me just in time to get into the top 5... but not fast enough to get over the single greatest song of Paramore's career, which got a resurgence thanks to a May Flower event on soundmap that allowed my creeping and lingering growing love for the song to finally explode over the top 8 years after its initial release.

Recurrency Markers:

- Below #30: >=5 weeks or a Top 10 peak

- Below #20: >=7 weeks or a Top 5 peak 

- Below #15: either >=10 weeks AND a Top 10 peak, or >=7 weeks AND a Top 5 peak

- Below #10: >=10 weeks AND #1 peak

Next week: As the music video for the Hamilton musical song Satisfied propels that song up the charts, Olivia Rodrigo attempts to take back the #1 from Paramore with a different song and more stuff from different artists enters. 

Hi there Oliver!

Nice to see the Olivia Rodrigo takeover, but surprised that she isn't #1, but Paramore is.

Not complaining the #1 song from you is a nice song.

And I like the debut for "CHUCK THE MONEY".

Great chart!
Take care.

Well, I don't know what to tell you. Olivia did have her birthday but I kinda felt like since it's likely The Cure is gonna be #1 next week anyway I was gonna give that Paramore song their long overdue flowers atp. Surprised you like Chuck the Money though, that one I did not expect you to like but glad you do since it's a different sound from him that I really like.

Thanks for commenting ☺️

Hey Oliver! :)

Glad to see the Olivia Rodrigo takeover, especially 'The Cure' debuting in the Top 5 with only four days of tracking! I also like the debuts for 'Housekeeping' & '17' following my playlist last week.

Good chart!

Hi Oliver,

nice to have "Drop Dead" staying strong + the stable position of "Eastside Girls".
