Its the best one obviously 😁

Are they really using this slot to play more songs which have had lengthy runs in the singles chart recently

I've always thought that having an actual album chart aired would be good, especially to hear full tracks from acts that never bother the singles chart so this is the closest we'll get I guess

They should have gone with "Dance No More", but "American Girls" is the one which had more success after "Aperture".

it's the best-performing track from the album still, makes sense to play it instead of an album track even if I'd rather they gave Pop, Coming Up Roses or Ready, Steady Go! a spotlight instead

Official Homegrown Albums Chart

06 Ellie Goulding - Black Prada Dress (from I Know Too Much)

07 Dexys Midnight Runners - LOVE

08 Ricky Warwick - Fire & Vengeance
09 Paris Paloma - The Fatal Flaw

For anyone interested I only recently discovered 'American Girls' is actually quite the rip-off of this 90s track in the production!!

I'm happy that we skip Dexys that's for sure

I really like Ellie's album! Black Prada Dress is a particular highlight. This whole era deserves soooo much more.

wouldve loved to hear Paris, especially since shes already on R1’s playlist which is the theme they are mainly going for with this chart clearly.

A waste opportunity from them to play "Ravers", "Fields of Love" or "Ways to Hurt". Sigh! 😔
