Today's episode was f-ing dreadful. Who wrote that and thought that someone as awesome as Nicola needed to be wrapped up in such sh!t? The two sisters were over-acted nonsense straight out of a Harry Enfield or Catherine Tate sketch show. I love EastEnders but that was pants.

As I was wearing a Madonna t-shirt at Pride on Saturday I had strangers talking to me about Kylie and Madonna making the charts and how they hoped it would make it to #1. I felt like a right know-it-all talking about the CD boost and how streaming would not be favourable. That is a big drop. I guess an early dispatch of vinyls would save it, but I doubt they're ready to go if they haven't been yet.

Who would ever think that being on a Steps forum would start to read like you're back on Grindr!!!??? And these votes for DJ. Seriously..? Electric and then DJ. Stop it!!!!

I would never encourage changing votes once made... 🫣

Ooh. I just listened to Lately. That's not a good song. I listened to Electric too. Still as sh!t as ever, but in such a brilliant way. Lisa Scott-Lee getting two streams in 2026!!!

All Out of Love. Because it beat Electric in the last round

The temptation to make a new account in the name of LisaSL and vote for H & Claire 🫣

If we're totally honest, it's not which is your least fave, but which is most poop in comparison to just about any Steps single!

I think if you consider what Electric did for the Steps story, it deserves to be saved. What did All Out of Love do...? Nothing.

Come on someone... Vote for All Out of Love so we can go to tie-break and save Electric for another round.

Things We Do For Love. If Padam doesn't win this...

Went to Swindon & Wiltshire Pride today and snapped up this fan for £15...

And are you H? Got there before me!!! 🤣

I was not expecting anything as high as #8, but when they said it was a #1 contender, part of we just couldn't help but wonder... Madonna and Kylie on a record together. I still can't quite believe this has happened.

You've got to be kidding me that the best song here has the most votes to go.

Oh wow, that's actually really good. I love the spoken verses, I love the music, I love the video. It's a thumbs up from me, though I am instantly aware that it's completely different from Rush.

Genuinely don't understand how a song has a daily run of 8-15-20-25-64. Like, what happened between Wednesday and Thursday?

To be fair to Madonna, both Bring Your Love and Danceteria spent 3 weeks Top 100, not 2 weeks. Is there any reason people who care enough about the charts won't just re-download it during physical release week, and those who don't care about the charts were never going to listen to reason anyway?

Looks like Danceteria was #32 on Wednesday update and managed to stay in, so fingers crossed 🤞

Missed that one, so thanks for the reminder. Half a Heart

You can't tell me these references are not intentional... 🤣

Come on, Jason. You didn't think for a second it would. The OCC article on a Sunday will always try to pretend things could stay the same as that First Look, but so many front-loaded singles fall off. If Love Sensation stays Top 40, it will still "look good". 😀

And if she gets 4 Top 100 entries from this album it will be her first album to do so since the original Confessions...!

I kind of think that if they knew this was going to happen, I don't know why they released Love Sensation as a Madonna solo as a promo track earlier. I'm guessing that is why it's not on very many NMF lists? Because it's "only" a remix. It's a good remix, but anyone else thinking that once Kylie gets going on it that you can hear her more than Madonna for the rest of it?

Sheila finding Jordan's passport in less than a minute and then sitting with it on the table in the cafe whilst chatting on the phone to his serial killer father. As you do.
