Streaming Services Chart Discussion; W/C 28/03/25
I hadn't realised 'The Giver' was actually the weekly #3 on Spotify last week (behind 'Anxiety') - it's down to #12 this week. 'Ordinary' has the highest weekly streams so far this year with 4,195,625

Both are good but I voted for 'Stop Me' (although The Smiths' original is the best)

Buzzjack's Ultimate UK Number 7 Single - The Final
Totally agree on 'Velvet Morning' - in fact I'd put it in my top 4 of the album ahead of 'Lucky Man'! Urban Hymns was a huge album, perhaps not a seminal album in the same way as OK Computer earlier that year, but I think it captured a changing mood post-Britpop. The Verve's split soon afterwards with little new material since may not have helped its legacy.

✦ BJSC 173 ✦ ODDS/PREDICTIONS ✦
Cor Lupus lead 5-2-0-0 in wins so there could be worse shadows to live in, I guess

Round 1: Year End Survivor #112
Strong selection, some very Buzzjack-friendly ones here! Starting with 'Mas Que Nada', a World Cup cash-in version with not much to it.

Switching to the one about the disco stick (this is #110 not #111 btw)

Friday Chart Predictions
Interesting battle for #2 without ACR between 'APT.', 'Messy' and 'Pink Pony Club' (plus 'Anxiety' although I think it's out of the running for now)
-
Chart Battle Rewind: Kelly Clarkson vs Taylor Swift
Kelly just about wins this for me with the big pop chorus
-
Estimated chart without ACR
I'd been thinking that too! Wonder if it could still climb to #2 though.
