good start for Bruno, clearly going to be a huge hit even if it's not quite the instant #1 some were predicting

Week 1: Agnes Week 2: Erin LeCount (Jenny on Holiday, Robyn, Sarah Kinsley are also good takeaways)

it was also 10 years since Danæviia's first medalist position, and next month marks 10 years since our first hosting effort as you passed it down to me. if not me, Dobago really ought to have won it with "Don't Be So Shy" which soon went on to be a big European hit, though it still finished a respectable 5th. The full results for those intrigued:

welcome Ennea! welcome back Niceland, Hushkanukia, D'yermak'er!

Each week, 8 new releases are selected to go head to head, with one weekly winner which will then go up against future weekly winners later in the year at the end of each quarter of the year, and then again at the end of the year to determine the ultimate winner of 2026. The 2025 final poll is also currently running - see the appropriate pinned thread. ========================================== Each week, choose one song only that you feel is your favourite from the selection of releases that week. If you wish to post a rate of the selection of songs in the thread, please feel free to do so. Here are this week's contenders (plus two songs that came out in last week's incredibly dry schedule): Results of this week's poll will be revealed in next week's thread. The poll will remain open until the following Friday. 2026 Dance Track of the Week Winners: Week 1+2: TBC link to 2025 winners link to 2024 winners link to 2023 winners

justice served for Steve Harrington this week then yay End of Beginning has grown a fair bit on me the second time around so is certainly more pleasing than just another default week at number one for Taylor

well ironically it's generally speaking the younger audience who watch Stranger Things that have brought these songs back Lol

whilst it would be preferable to have fresher music in the chart, when the oldies are this good it can be forgiven

it's from their self-titled album, not Rumours! (yayyyy for this going top 20)

resets for Prince, David Bowie, Diana Ross, The Police and Fleetwood Mac all really ought to be in order but OCC will be wildly inconsistent as ever I guess

What are the chart rules regarding streaming? For streaming and chart rules related FAQs read the pinned thread regarding this. How many streams equals one download sale? 100 plays if you are on Spotify Premium, or 600 if you are using the ad-supported free tier. However you cannot simply play a song that many times in one day to give it one sale, you are limited to 10 plays per day in terms of what counts to the chart. The number changes to 200 or 1200 plays when a song moves to ACR. For more information on the rules of ACR see this thread. How much does streaming contribute to the chart? Streaming contributes over 90% to the singles chart as a whole. Spotify counts for at least half of this, with Apple Music and Amazon also big contributors. YouTube is also big however most of YouTube's streams are at the free tier so won't count for as much. Why is my fave not doing well? Is it being promoted on a major curated playlist, and/or going viral on TikTok? If it isn't, it's unlikely to really take off! Hot Hits UK is the biggest of these playlists on Spotify from a UK standpoint. The playlist usually updates itself to include breaking hits once or twice a week, though there is no guarantee that your fave will get a place on the playlist. Also, the UK Top 50 is a largely followed playlist and that songs often experience a 'top 50 effect', when they enter the top 50 and get the additional exposure of being on the playlist. Often sales hits don't cross over to being streaming hits, this is usually the case for songs with an older target audience, reality or campaign songs. Also keep in mind that it often takes longer for a song to take off on Spotify than it would on iTunes. My fave didn't debut high and is falling already, does this mean they're flopping? Not necessarily. Most songs debut relatively low as they aren't instantly well-known, and experience a sharp decline on Day 2 as they no longer have the promoted 'New Music Friday' effect. A lot of songs manage to recover through gaining popularity and additions to playlists. Exceptions to the rule of course come from massively hyped releases, such as the recent album impacts from Drake and Taylor Swift. Spotify How do I see today's Spotify chart?
