I don’t see The Killers staying #1 next week, but they could return there when they release vinyls maybe?

Mood up to #4 on Spotify today

Tick Tock up to #51

Hallucinate #53

I think you might be underestimating Disclosure, what did their last album open with?

The Killers should move Mr Brightside onto their new album :P

Would get them a few extra streams towards the album charts that’s for sure. Reckon it could sneak back into the top 50 if we get a quiet week on new releases soon.

New Headie One still #3 on Spotify

Dynamite small drop to #20

Clean Bandit/Mabel #53

New Travis Scott #82

Mr. Brightside up to #51 and Blowback still in the top 200 (just)

Calvin Harris & The Weeknd - Over Now out this Friday

4 songs from The Killers’ new album in the top 200 on Spotify. All below Mr. Brightside ofc, although Blowback got close.

BTS' Dynamite are rumoured to break the one-day record on Spotify. We'll see what happens there.

Didn’t even get close, only did 8 million apparently

I might be wrong, but if Perfect was on ACR wouldn’t it still be in the top 100 albeit only just?

Ah ok. This years the first in ages I've paid any attention to the chart.

 

Do schools have any affect? I'd have thought it might have an overall dip in a fortnight once they're open again if kids are now otherwise occupied more but maybe not.

Kinda inclined to disagree. Lots of kids will listen to music on the bus or whatever on the way to school so I don’t think there’ll be a noticeable dip tbh.

New Headie One and Clean Bandit both added to HHUK although pretty low down

If "Perfect" is 2.6789 points behind "My Way", and has been averaging about No. 45 in the chart the last few weeks, and you get 0.56 points for no. 45, it will take over at the top in five weeks time if my maths are correct!

 

My Way is slightly further ahead than that I believe. It has an extra 9 weeks outside the top 75 missing, as mentioned in your post, granted it wouldn’t make that much difference but it would make the gap slightly bigger

Amazing work to compile such a massive list. I knew the 3 Ed songs would be big but I wasn’t expecting them to do even better than the actual decade end list!

How would the Ed songs (and Shotgun) hold up if you made an all time list using this system? Would Perfect be #1?

+05 AJ Tracey & Mabel ~ West Ten

+04 Regard & RAYE ~ Secrets

+03 Harry Styles ~ Watermelon Sugar

+02 Nathan Dawe feat. KSI ~ Lighter

+01 Billie Eilish ~ my future

 

 

-01 Jawsh 685 & Jason Derulo ~ Savage Love (Laxed - Siren Beat)

-02 Chris Brown & Young Thug ~ Go Crazy

-03 DJ Khaled feat. Drake ~ GREECE

-04 Joel Corry feat. MNEK ~ Head & Heart

-05 Headie One & Drake ~ Only You Freestyle

 

Lots of old songs doing well cos of the hot weather. Mr. Brightside at #51 and Dancing in the Moonlight (Toploader) at #78 although that might be benefitting due to the Jubël version. Also Juliet & Romeo is just outside the top 100, is that it’s highest position on Spotify?

how many hits have D-Block Europe had this year? I really lost count with so many releases like every 3 weeks :D

 

One week in the bottom half of the top 40 before free falling out the chart a couple of weeks later doesn’t really count as a hit imo

Not sure if Perfect or Flowers avoiding is more disappointing. Probably Flowers because Perfect still being here is quite funny

Spotify Numbers in comparison to last week to give a rough idea on whether a song has increased or not:

Dinner Guest: -85,000 streams

Kings & Queens: -3,000

Someone to You: -7,000

Be Kind: -12,000

Flowers: +3,000

Party Girl: +34,000 (unsure as to whether this was combined with the remix this week but wasn’t last week)

ily: -14,000

 

These were the tracks that faced ACR last week:

 

220 KID & GRACEY - Don't Need Love: ACR

AJ Tracey feat. MoStack - Dinner Guest: Avoided

Ariana Grande & Justin Bieber - Stuck With U: ACR

Daði Freyr - Think About Things: ACR

HOSH & 1979 feat. feat. Jalja - Midnight (The Hanging Tree): ACR

Marshmello & Halsey - Be Kind: Avoided

Megan Thee Stallion - Savage: ACR

Natalie Taylor - Surrender: ACR

Nathan Dawe feat. Jaykae - Flowers: Avoided

StaySolidRocky - Party Girl: Avoided

Surf Mesa feat. Emilee - ‎ily (i love you baby): Avoided

Topic & A7S - Breaking Me: ACR

What's the most weeks a song has spent on SCR consecutively? Perfect now has 24 with at least 3 more to come as well as 3(?) at the start of the year when it was struck out.

it's rather a playlist more than an album... despite that, good for her!

 

Dua Lipa is doing great! Constantly selling better than numbers 16-18 and FN will be top 5 album soon.

 

I'm not sure if FN will make top 5, and if it does, it won't be any time soon, it sold less than 800 more copies than Ed's No. 6 last week, and that gap is decreasing. Maybe the release of 'Hallucinate' will give the album a boost tho

Are there quizzes like these for previous years? If so could someone link them so I could have go please

159/169

 

Embarrassingly forgot the name of the BLACKPINK song which debuted this week, as well as not knowing some of the J Hus tracks

6ix9ine missed the top 200 again on UK Spotify and debuted just outside the top 100 on the global chart, hopefully this means people are getting bored of him

Perfect and Someone You Loved both getting new positions this week. Perfect now only 1 behind Chasing Cars overall.
