Don’t play dumb. Her last #1 was almost 20 years ago. In all likelihood this is her last chance. Edited 6 hours ago6 hr by No Sleeep

Actually I don’t think it would even make a dent in the news.Shakira all the way, it’s so extremely rare we get a woman over 40 (nevermind almost 50) at #1When they reached 16 and 18 weeks it was reported on by the BBC, Sky News, NME, Billboard, The Guardian etc.,I’m sure the OCC will push out a press release if it makes it this week for some headlines.And I think Kylie was the last over 40 (and over 50) female at #1 just over 6 months ago.

6 hours ago6 hr So we’re all just playing dumb and acting like Xmas (and River) didn’t get to #1 because of Alexa’s annual Christmas miracle (just like Jess Glynne, Lizzo, Sam Ryder getting top 10s long past their peaks) and that women over 50 get chart hits all the time? Sure why not

Who cares where it’s popular - there are literally hundreds of local artists who only do well in their home market with massive selling releases.And I should hope that ‘Dai Dai’ is popular around the world - it was literally played pre and post match at the World Cup games, and multiple times at the final along with a performance - a rare opportunity for a song to get that kind of extended exposure on a global scale.RMIUK #1 (18 Weeks)Ireland #1 (12 Weeks)Australia #1New Zealand #2The Netherlands #3Norway #12Top 40 - Belgium, Canada, SwedenUK - 3 x PlatinumAustralia - 2 x PlatinumNew Zealand - 2 x PlatinumCanada - PlatinumUSA - Gold Edited 6 hours ago6 hr by ___∆___

With Frankie, Bryan and Wets, people actually went out and bought these songs. Shame Olivia didn’t include Rein Me In as a bonus track on her album because if she did, it would’ve diluted the sales for the song itself Edited 6 hours ago6 hr by Hadji

Why would the rest of the world be a factor?
