Nice set! I wonder if it will be available to stream - what songs currently aren’t on streaming that are among all these tracks? A little pricey but it’s nice item for a Christmas wishlist.

I got Massive because they're credited as that on Now 19, which I finally acquired recently.

K is one I had no idea at all about, I can't remember anything about that album apart from the singles. I had to put a stab in the dark but tbf as random as it may look, it wasn't completely baseless as the story is adapted from traditional Korean Shamanism! You can see the straws I'm clutching at here.

I never really liked We Can't Stop much, but Miley has always been extremely hit and miss for my taste, even with her big hits. Agree the other is stronger and more on the 'hit' side of my taste.

For me, I'm not so surprised about the £££ signs in their eyes, but moreso if AI music takes off even more with major label backing that the genuine artists that they are trying to develop for the future will have even fewer opportunties to chart, in a chart landscape already overrun with old songs and hard to break into. And I would imagine AI 'artists' are also more likely to be one-hit wonders, who also can't make them any money from touring etc... so it's all short-term gain. Also, the artists already on their labels are bound to become disgruntled if priority is given to AI acts, plus the aforementioned environmental concerns of a label building up an AI artist, AI music videos etc will likely reflect badly on these companies, who are constantly pressed by shareholders etc on how they are being sustainable. Also, the lack of musical creativity and originality coming from the major labels who exploit this will hurt in the future as things become even more homogenised... it all feels like a recipe for potential disaster to me. And sad that this is how labels feel they need to thrive, but maybe a sad reality also in this day and age, as 2026 has been so dry, the industry feels stuck so profits must be dropping.

Voted! Love my top three in particular <3 Decent semi with some strong contenders and gems likely to be overlooked alike, however Semi 2 looks like more of a bloodbath to me.

-- P.s. thanks for the love in here so far for the Swedish Eurodance drottningen 👑 ❤️

Queen still eligible then, I will save We Are The Champions for the final! Along with that other rather big British band.

is this person even a musician at all? Seems to be first and foremost a Reiki master and is also listed as a "Deep House Producer" but have they actually made any of their music themselves. Seems so crazy that someone who fed some words into Suno and came out with a house track is top three in the chart. Can't wait to see them perfom the track live...

AI is such a dream for people making political points musically it seems. Previously political acts had to write their own lyrics and tune (or rip off somebody else's tune), get a session singer to do it, or sing it themselves badly, pay for production and mastering etc. This all cost them $$$, and ultimately whoever is motivated to buy these things anyway isn't buying it to listen to the song itself, so will buy it if it's AI or not. I fully expect to see loads of Suno political songs coming around. Maybe some in time for a Christmas No.1 download campaign.

True, I guess labels are still reeling from the early 00s when they failed to react quickly enough to the threat of downloads and Napster and Limewire etc hurt them so much, so they want to be on the front foot with AI, whatever that looks like. Creativity and originality be damned!

I think this topic is only going to get louder, we've already got a song in the top three based on an AI creation so it surely won't be long before one hits No.1. I wonder how long before an entirely AI created and recorded track does really well. Obviously there was that Stromae 'cover' that charted, but it didn't massively take off here. AI songs have done well in other countries, there's one that would have got to No.1 in Sweden a few months ago but the charts compiler there banned it from charting. Anyway, this major step with Suno and record labels, as reported in Music Week today, feels like it could have a giant impact going forward. I'm surprised labels are playing ball with Suno, it still feels to me like it is going to damage them in the long run if AI music becomes more prevalent, surely, even if they and their artists are getting some sort of cut? Suno rolls out new generation of...Suno rolls out new generation of AI music models with War...I suppose it's a good thing that Suno is trying to be more ethical, but to what ends? Surely all creativity is lost. The quote from the CEO, “We started Suno because we believed more people should be able to experience the joy of making music,” is so curious to me, as you are not actually making music, you are just feeding prompts? It can be fun for a laugh, but when real artists are using it and releasing music made with prompts, I question the joy in that, for them and consumers.

Cliff doing Sign Of The Times... Christmas No.1 right there, go on Alexa, pick it up. The version of Spirit In The Sky is completely lifeless, doesn't feel like it has any gusto and almost like the lyrics are just being read out.

I am part of your fan club too once more. I think/hope you will Q and I would also suggest that Sovarasma, The Spodic Empire, Bronzil, Aelandor and Danæviia will too. Semi 2 looks to be unpredictable to say the least, as I couldn't begin to predict who will go out instead.

Animals is strong, I'd rank it around the same area I guess or maybe a touch higher, was cool to see an instrumental at No.1 like that. There was a song I really loved by him from the following year called Helicopter, and more recently Bizarre with Madonna, a great dance artist.
