Olivia Rodrigo goes from failing to secure the win with both drop dead and the cure, to dominating the poll and winning 14 votes with stupid song, securing at least one song from her third album a spot to fight it out at the end of the quarter. Bebe Rexha, Griff and Boy In Space are the only other artists to pick up any votes in week 24. Week 25 proves to be more varied though, Angèle winning with six votes while Myles Smith and HRVY round out the podium with five and four votes respectively.
