GTH

Just Cher and Stevie Wonder this week.

+12 Dua Lipa - Houdini +10 Tate McRae - exes +8 Taylor Swift - Is It Over Now? +7 Olivia Rodrigo - all-american bitch +6 The Beatles - Now And Then +5 Olivia Rodrigo - Can't Catch Me Now +4 Sam Ryder - You're Christmas To Me +3 Jack Harlow - Lovin On Me +2 Childish Gambino - Heartbeat +1 Chase And Status - Selecta (feat. Stefflon Don)

Will never understand why these lists only account for the period up to October (and not even the whole month at that). Happy to see RAYE top 50 still. :cheer:

Could the label ask for a manual reset still? Agree it is frustrating if the current rules end up preventing this song potentially getting a new peak.

Seems to have had the most impact in Germany out of the (mainland) European charts I have seen this year. For those interested, I have added the chart runs for Leona this year. Still a few European charts announced on Sunday, so will update after New Years if anything else pops up. One More Sleep (chart weeks beginning 4th, 11th, 18th & 25th December) Austria: X - 74 - X - 68 (peak) Germany: 99 - X - X - 76 (new peak) Ireland: 66 - 69 - 55 - 40 (peak to date 19) Netherlands: X - X - 97 - 69 (peak to date - 58) Switzerland: X - X - X - 70 (peak to date - 54) Winter Wonderland has also re-entered the German chart this week at 63, out peaking OMS. It has also entered the Swiss charts for the first time at 94. Christmas, With Love (Always) charted in Germany for the first time this year. Germany: X - 93 - 82 - 28 (peak) No sign of Kiss Me, It's Christmas outside the UK that I can see. Hopefully that might change in time as well.

Yeah, I made the same mistake lol. Very happy to see the MOTD revival. Been too long since Sophie EB was in the charts.

I am hoping we get new Leona this year. It’s been 8 years since her last studio album and with the recent tour, hopefully this will lead to more activity on her front.

Cher just made it! :cheer:

Perfect Day being my favourite here. I hope one day they figure something out to get it on streaming/available to download.

Pretty sure I heard Black Coffee being used in the Doctor Who episode too.

Kiss Me, It’s Christmas now up to 112 on Spotify! Exciting stuff!

Agreed. There seems to be more discussion around this track, no doubt helped by the promotion Sam has done and publicity from the Xmas number one race. Playlisting will be an issue, but has been given to previous Amazon exclusives before (not prominent placing mind). Seeing Kiss Me It’s Christmas turn up is a pleasant surprise! Only seen it on one Spotify Christmas playlist so didn’t have any expectations for it this year. Hopefully can scrape another week in the chart.

Week 49 2 x Sabrina Carpenter Week 50 Cher (love this -_- ) Tate Nicki - Needle Nicki - pink Friday Girls Week 51 Juice/Eminen/Benny

Went with Dua and Tate. Not keen on the Skeptacore track.

+12: Noah Kahan - Stick Season +10: Troye Sivan - One Of Your Girls +8: Charli XCX and Sam Smith - In The City +7: JENNIE - You & Me +6: Drake - Rich Baby Daddy (feat. Sexyy Red and SZA) - if they made an edit removing the last minute, this would be higher +5: Jung Kook - 3D (feat. Jack Harlow) +4: Jones, D.O.D and Ina Wroldsen - Won't Forget You +3: Joel Corry - Hey DJ +2: Pinkpantheress - Mosquito +1: Jorja Smith - Feelings (feat. J Hus)

I went for NTWDT, This Is Halloween (classic) + Now & Then for week 44. Just Jung Kook week 45.

I went last night in Cardiff. The show was fun and Simon is correct on theme. However, Leona was fighting a cold and had to cut the set short (only a couple songs fortunately) as she was clearly struggling. Hopefully with some rest she will be fine but suspect the next few shows might have to be cancelled/rescheduled again.

Glad to see Ouch higher than some of the better peaking singles. ‘My name’s Shaniqua and wot’ will always be an iconic lyric. :lol:

I went for Stormzy/Raye, Zayn and Ava. I like the other Barbie tracks and Beabadoobee one, but not enough to go out of my way to listen to them.

Desire sounds big! Can definitely see this as another big hit after Miracle’s success.

Liked almost all the new entries this week. Only ones I didn’t care for were Fredo and the Rave Out song.

What a climb for Billie! Barbie soundtrack absolutely smashing it.

Whoever said this would be like the Easy A song, you were right. This is such a hot mess, but I have had ‘manjobi manjobi manjobiiii’ in my head all day. :lol:

This is no Hold Me Closer… Definitely see why it didn’t make the cut for Britney Jean.

I went for Enchanted, Moonlight and Super Shy. Hoping Moonlight can make some good gains in the coming weeks.
