Calvin up to #2 on Apple Music now!

Some Amazon: #6. Benson Boone "Mystical Magical #8. Ed Sheeran - "Old Phone" #10. sombr - "undressed" #15 Skye Newman - "Hairdresser" #30. Calvin Harris & Clementine Douglas "Blessings" #32. Lorde - "What Was That" #33. Skye Newman - "Family Matters"

Really enjoyed the episode! I would've had Olivia & Irene top 2 though. Would've made things so interesting for the 3 queens going through *_* Happy Irene managed to win a lip sync although was a rather boring/underwhelming lip sync. I think Bosco forgot the words at one point? Happy that Irene, Bosco & Aja went through as that was the right top 3. So far really liking the format and looking forward to the next bracket!

I really thought Olivia was going to be top 2! I loved the makeover looks and their performance was great. Irene knocked it out of the park again. Deja was the weakest.

Lorde - Green Light (2x) I'd like to think I pushed this over the edge as I've been on a bit of a Lorde binge the last week *_* Paramore - That's What You Get Happy to see this get a gold certification!

I mean it's not surprising. Momentum is in Reform's favour currently but I can easily see reform fading down again come 2029 for the next election. Labour really have to make sure they at least make the general feeling of the public more positive in upcoming budgets. This year's autumn budget will be a crucial point.

I was wondering when her album was coming out so thought to check the thread - such a shame :( I can see why they're doing this as releasing a lot of singles prior can benefit in the long run but it's also missing out on the hype that was built around her. Either way I look forward to listening to it whenever it drops!

I have to say I really love the format. It's nice to be able to have hyper-focus on 6 queens for a few episodes. I also think it's because I like having a top 2 lip sync again for the win. First episode Irene <3 Killed it. Also Aja was amazing and her lip sync was equally amazing. Bosco was really great too. Second episode, Irene, Irene, Irene!! That character/voice change mid-way through the interrogation was just perfect. Bosco was very good too and Deja did well. I don't think I've really disagreed with anything the judges have said so far. An obvious top 3 in Aja/Bosco/Irene, although Deja and Olivia could still surprise in the last episode. Really hoping Irene can get through the the semi-final!! Also I love the runways - some really great ones. Bosco's runways just stunning, both of them. Irene's amazing too. Deja's runway in the 2nd episode was beautiful.

Struggled to pick! Aja, Bosco & Irene were all great. Overall I think Irene did the best, she killed the challenge! Not just her verse but all the things she was doing whilst in the background too. Poor Phoenix was dead last.

I didn't even realise she released a new song, really like it! Hopefully it'll build to become a hit. I think every one of her songs that became a hit built up ("Water"/"Jump"/"PUSH 2 START"). Also the remix of "Show Me Love" is doing really and has boosted the song to new peaks in a lot of places (was actually surprised how well the Tyla remix of the song was doing!).

This is really good *_*

I like it - it's a nice album track. I'm just hoping there is a bonified hit on the album given "End of the World" didn't do as well as I thought it would!

Some new Amazon peaks: #6. Benson Boone - "Mystical Magical" #9. Ed Sheeran - "Old Phone" #13. sombr - "undressed" #41. Calvin Harris & Clementine Douglas - "Blessings" #47. PinkPantheress - "Illegal" #50. Miley Cyrus - "More to Lose"

Its a bit of a bop and fits in well with the dance music Apple like to push! Plus the warmer weather will likely help it out somewhat.

"Trustfall" platinum and "Angels Like You" gold!

I haven't watched Canada's Drag Race since season 1 but these spoilers are such a mess it's making me want to watch! And Van Goth *_* Would love them to try similar things on UK/US seasons. Imagine an Eastender's-type acting challenge followed by girl group performance in the same episode l Or maybe they should do combination challenges. Like Snatch Game + Roast where you do a normal roast whilst impersonating a celebrity (i know some people have kind of done this before where they play characters during the roast - like Coco or Nina bonina Brown etc).

Some new Amazon peaks: #7. Ravyn Lenae - "Love Me Not" #14. Ed Sheeran - "Old Phone" #16. sombr "undressed" #30. Skye Newman - "Hairdresser" #51. Maroon 5 & LISA - "Priceless" #72. Lorde - "What Was That" #80. Addison Raye - "Headphones On"

Some new Amazon peaks/re-peaks: #2. Jack Black - "Steve's Lava Chicken" #8. Benson Boone - "Mystical Magical" #17. Ed Sheeran - "Old Phone" #60. Maroon 5 & LISA - "Priceless" #83. Lorde - "What Was That"

I wonder if she can make a proper comeback? Looking forward to hearing it!

Great to see "Malibu" 2x platinum

Leadership challenge for the conservatives likely in the next year. I just don't see how Kemi can stay on much longer. Big wake-up call to Labour as well. Hopefully they'll listen and amend some of their policies. The autumn budget will be their big test.

Ravyn is cover of HHUK and up to #4 on the playlist! Also she's gaining on Amazon now at #11 (new peak). Ed Sheeran back to #2 on Amazon. Benson "Mystical Magical" up to a new peak of #12. New Jorja Smith #1 on NMF (total bop!) with Ed #2 on NMF.

New trailer just dropped: Looks good! And some of the looks are great!

Could Ravyn challenge for #1 in a couple weeks? :o It'll need to improve on other platforms like Amazon/Apple though. Happy it looks like it should become a top 5 hit!

Really great interview with the queens Can't wait for the drama!!
