Liam.k.

As said already it does highlight how week downloads are now but 10 years ago the soaps were boosting songs to the high ends of the chart too. I remember Gods and Monsters by Lana Del Rey made the official Top 40 in 2014 after it’s use in an EastEnders advert and Yours by Ella Henderson had a big boost the same year due to its use in a poignant Hollyoaks scene.

Kasabian's album breakdown: 12,773 physicals, 711 downloads, 889 streams

First words will definitely be “gaga” 😂

Sienna Spiro sales: The track now has 195,088 sales to date. Spiro’s biggest seller remains Die On This Hill (865,150), the song that started it all for the artist. Her other biggest sellers include Maybe (540,371), You Stole The Show (396,254), Material Lover (315,886) and The Visitor (286,618). Spiro’s debut album Visitor charted in the Top 10 this week and has 99,236 sales to date, while Die On This Hill and Pure are also in the singles Top 40.

Did ‘We Could Be the One’ get #1 on iTunes eventually or was it stuck behind ‘Padam Padam’?

Not to say Kylie wouldn’t get a big reaction, but Everybody Wants to Rule the World sometimes pops in and out the UK Top 100 and seems to have made itself extremely popular with younger audiences. I could imagine the reaction would be massive. They’d no doubt recognise more Kylie songs though.

To be fair I can imagine 'Everybody Wants to Rule the World' getting a bigger reception at a Harry Styles concert than any Kylie song.

That’s better! 😂

From Music Week: The tour is in support of the singer’s fourth album Kiss All The Time. Disco, Occasionally, which was released via Columbia and debuted at No.1 in March. It is the biggest-selling album released in 2026 so far in the UK, with 383,055 sales, and has spawned two No.1 singles, intro track Aperture (555,436) and American Girls (645,225).

Wow, pretty huge news!

‘Amazing’ by INNA has become one of my summer staples so I like to think I contributed a lot to its Silver certification! Didn’t realise it was anywhere close!

I’ll start with Here Come the Drums and go from there!

#1 on Australian iTunes now! I’m liking this! I love those hard-edged synths. Could definitely do with an extended mix! I’m only familiar with Rogue Traders through ‘Voodoo Child’ - an absolute classic - but I could definitely do a deep dive with them.

Out a day early apparently!
