Hey JSG!

Nice to see Patient Zero make it to the top spot, I'm really enjoying it now!

Triple Slayyyter in the Top 10 is very welcome, particularly the huge climb for Crank 2! Wonder if it can climb even further?

The chart run of Hate That I Made You Love Me is fantastic, first time outside the Top 10 in 19 weeks is incredibly longevity.

Lower down, nice to see the new entries from Olivia/Chappell, Holly Humberstone, and Tate McRae! Housewife is a fun song but I'm hoping she switches it up a bit for her next album.

Great chart!

Hey Hayden!

I'm glad you're enjoying it. It's great. It should be #1 for the next wee while on my chart I think.

Crank 2 wing overtake bur good call regardless.

Yep, hate that I made you love me went for meh to one of her best in my eyes lol.

Hey James! It's been a while since I commented on personal charts but here I am lol.

Sombr's is my fave in the top 10 there. It was one I heard on radio and didn't think much of at first but had wormed It's way in my head. He's mixed for me but would say this is on the ones I like of his.

'Marienne' is another grower too but 'Japan' sounded pretty instant to me. Not sure I get them overall yet though but these both sound good at least.

Feels like 2013 again with Icona Pop still riding high for you and RAWM back and on a decent run again. The hit that never was 😪

Love the Oliviapell track and 'Housewife' has grown after not being too crazy on it on first listen.

Good stuff, hope you're doing well!

Hey rob!

Oh yeah it quickly became my favourite of sombrs as well. Great track.

Marianne is great so it is. I'm surprised I took to it but it is easily their best yet.

Haha yes, I can see why you would think that.

Hey James,

Yep, "Patient Zero" also number 1 at your chart too 👍

Rose Gray and Carly Rae Jepsen climbing and Olivia/Chappell entering in the Top 30 + Tate McRae and Holly Humberstone Top 40

Thanks as always Sven!

Hey James! 🙂

great chart, good to see Patient Zero on top, Carly, Rose and sombr top 10, (again in 2 cases! 🙂) and new ones from Olivia/Chappell and Holly Humberstone, I like both of those. Miley and Ella both dropping though, awwww 🥹

Lots of Carly Rae's but no Amalfi Coast, loving that one at the mo! Good stuff as always! 😎

Hey John!

Yep patient zero is brilliant.

The newbies you picked out are great. I'm not a fan of Amalfi coast but you should definitely listen to in pure faith. That is amazing!

Hi James

01 08 Taylor Swift - Patient Zero | 23-08-01 | 3 wks Just noticing this went #1 on week 3 in your chart, just like 'The Fate Of Ophelia'
02 09 Jordan Hunt - Between Worlds | 33-27-17-09-02 | 5 wks Ooh I don't know this person and I feel like I should!
10 07 Alyssa Grace - Bloodstream | 37-30-24-17-07-07-10 | 7 wks You might be charting this the highest out of anyone, but it's going to climb for me, still growing on me 👍
18 21 Chinchilla - Viper | 39-32-29-21-18 | 5 wks Really shocked this didn't qualify in BJSC
29 NE Olivia Rodrigo & Chappell Roan - Expectations | 29 | 1 wk This collab though!! Loved the song already and Chappell adds so much to it
34 NE Tate McRae - Housewife | 34 | 1 wk Sounds huge! Hope it climbs for you but I assume it will!

Great chart

Heya!

Yep, the massive ones that really get me do always do it quicker than the others. Always the way it's been.

I don't think you would know him to be honest.

That's good. It has already or will this weakened coming, be removed from my playlist though.

Yeah expectations exceeded my own expectations lol. Great song.

Hi James. Hope all is good with you. My faves this week:

01 08 Taylor Swift - Patient Zero | 23-08-01 | 3 wks a pretty instant No.1 for you here! Not quite there for me yet but I think this'll stick around a while
12 12 Icona Pop - Foreverness | 34-23-17-04-01-11-12-12 | 8 wks I'm loving this more and more each week. Thanks again for the tip
29 NE Olivia Rodrigo & Chappell Roan - Expectations | 29 | 1 wk climbing for me you'll be pleased to hear but will need a few more listens if it'll progress further I think
34 NE Tate McRae - Housewife | 34 | 1 wk now I do love this! And was pretty instant for me

Fantastic chart as always ❤️

Heya!

Yeah, patient zero is fantastic I think. It's a shame it's taking longer to grow on you than it did for me.

I'm glad you're enjoying foreverness. It is good, just a shame it's not an official single. It should be.

Hi James, hope you're good

Great to see 'expectations' debuting this week! The solo version caught my attention on the album, as the new wave influences are very to my taste, but I've ended up enjoying the collab even more - Chappell fits it so well the music video is great fun too.

Hey jade!

Oh did it? I wasn't a fan of the solo version but this version is supern.
