Yes, I am liking this on first listen.

Couldn't name another song by them off the top of my head, but sure I would recognise them if I heard them.

This feels like a laid back chill dance track which is perfect for... Well... The end of Summer.

This is decent. It's no Undressed, but I don't think it's trying to be.

There is a definite 80s feel on this track.

Would like to see it do something, but no idea which way this one will go

Listening to this for first time right now... And it's okay.

Undoubtedly not expected to do a single thing chart-wise, but a nice introduction to the new album.

Very early Olly sounding, which isn't a bad thing

Yeah, I've gone for Top 50 as well.

Only vinyl and streaming won't get Madonna a massively high chart position, surely?

Going to have to be Alejandro now.

What a strong Top 4 though.

I haven't listened to this album. I don't really want to. But it looks like it's going to do okay based on the mid-weeks. Probably won't hit 20k though.

@Liam Sota - I admire your dedication to the person who appears to be your fave current act. But maybe slightly tone it down, just to save yourself some face?

Unless, of course, you are just taking the pi$$ and then job done ✅

I do really like this... But I am not expecting it to chart as Confidence Man have never had a UK top 100. With that in mind, the Wednesday release isn't a problem.

Secret.

Great song, but I thought a weak lead at the time.

Oscar is brilliant. Had no idea who he was as I never watched in when he was in it before, but he is an immediately likeable character with only a couple of clunky scenes so far. It felt a little obvious to bring in a new LGBTQ+ character just as they had axed two others, and I do wonder how "bi" they will make him in the long-run. Good casting though.

I know it was also obvious, but I like the Callum/Johnny pairing. It's hilarious how they keep telling each other they have to stop and then just immediately start getting it on. I do agree that there was no way Phil would think they were together when they were just on the landing in the pub. They're mates. Them being upstairs didn't mean that were getting it on.

And I wondered how fast Jay and Billy can move because it was literal seconds after Phil blew up that they were there.

I am so chuffed that Fleur is Top 10, and has been quite steady inside it throughout - even going as high as #5.

Not holding my breath, but would be good to finish inside the top reaches of the contest.

Thank you to @awardinary for a 12 points and @Mangø for a 10 points, and the smattering of others who gave Fleur some points so far.

She deserved to be a massive UK pop star, and Baby Don't Dance should have been the follow-up to Sax. Shocker that SyCo handled her career so badly.

I got a bit bored listening to this.

It's fine and all that, but it's just not hitting it for me.

This is okay, but no escaping that it is incredibly generic.

Have to say though, I never understand the hate for Jazzy when she gets it. I like just about every song she's ever been on!

Has anyone watched Overcompensating on Amazon Prime?

Such a good and funny series.

Sign of the Times for me.

A brilliant Harry debut, but I'd rather listen to the others

Just noticed dandy has about 3 predictions in that list ChatGPT created, he can't be that diverse can he?

ChatGPT ignoring the fact I even exist 😂

Pixie Lott to go from these

I've gone Avril here, but that's a tough choice between those three

I think janine is quite universally loved , and is one of the most popular characters the show has produced so unsure where you've got that from!

I assume you are talking about the viewers who love her, whereas I am referring to no-one in Albert Square liking her.

Would anyone welcome back the person who bumped off Mick?

I really don't want Janine to return. I'm not keen on the character, have no idea why someone keeps returning to a place where no-one really likes her and I always can't wait for her to fall and be gone again.

On the Peter subject... Couldn't help but laugh at the women in the pub talking about Waiters in the Buff and Peter overhearing them mention all the young guys on the square... apart from him!!

AOMD

Plastic Box

FUFN

IT Girl

Frozen

Midnight Cowboy

Fantasy

I think PB is over FUFN just because it's there at the moment.

The "PB dance" should go viral and it should make the song a hit.

But it probably won't.

Two of this weeks DCL-3 songs are from 2020

And one of them is from 1978!!

Going 911 as I really don't have a clue how it sounds

I'm looking forward to listening to this.

I think after 4 years he'll come back with something pretty decent.

Always liked Biebs, and there has to at least be a good 10-track album amongst the 20!!

Got To Be Certain.

Although I like it more now, Never Too Late was the first Kylie single I didn't like that much 🫣

Would be so good if this got a few weeks in the Top 100.

Had it on R1 earlier and it just sounds so good in the car in the sunshine!!
