I'm not a big fan of any of the next #1 contenders so I really hope 'Jolene' gets it, although admittedly that's looking more and more unlikely now.

Ideally if anything charts EMERALD EYES and CRY WOLF charts for Alex but its looking Most likely a FEVER DREAM reset at best

Yes, the best two of the album by far, the first one is such a lead single material, no idea why he didn't use it before.

Cmon Jolene stick at the top! Hope it’s stable on Spotify and doesn’t drop too much in today’s update

It's times like these where it would be really good to understand Apple Music's streaming numbers and, therefore, impact on the chart as still being at #1 for Jolene could be promising for next week.

I think people are writing Jolene off too quickly. It is starting the week in a strong position compared to the other contenders now Rein Me In is on ACR. If Jolene is #1 in the first look charts, I expect that would drum up publicity which should help sustain it a bit longer.

Fingers crossed!

Definitely seems like it’ll be close between Jolene, Choosin Texas, Great Expectation and Movin To The Sun

I don’t quite get how Hugel is doing so well though, it’s not even top 20 on Spotify, I know it’s 6 on Apple but that’s still not amazing

It's doing great on Amazon (2) Amazon seems to have a bigger market share now.

Literally anything for #1 - anything at all apart from the horrific ‘Great Expectation’.

Was hoping Dolly would’ve held up better on Spotify - I guess with such a huge back catalog streams are being spread out across multiple songs.

Great Expectation is NOT horrific 😪

Spotify streams are so close atm 100k streams can mean the difference between top 5 and not even top 50 some days

Spotify update no new music in that top 200 boring

The songs chart hasn't updated yet? The artist chart has though. Dolly #4 there, down from 2. Hoping it means she's holding on decently.

Not too bad of a drop then for Dolly number wise. Very close numbers between all of the contenders.

Yeah it should be a close one this week!

I think that’s enough for Dolly to be number 1 in the First Look Chart

Ooh thats more like it hopefully the spotify difference can be enough for EMERALD EYES and CRY WOLF be the potentially (likely only top 100) tracks oh wait Ordinary still riding high 😢
