  1. Yeah a rare occasion where I'll also pick "none of the above", none of these do it for me. PUNK ROCKY is superior to all three of these A$AP songs. Didn't hate the Wizkid & Asake or Jeff Buckley songs but didn't care for them either. NO BATIDÃO was an odd song, AI or otherwise. The AI Papaoutai cover might actually be a nice listen if it were made by real artists putting in the hard work. The "vocals" on this are unfortunately rough anyway, borderline shouty in parts, but the vibe is nice. Won't be listening again out of choice.
  2. 22 The Well Season 2 Episode 3 Doctor: 15th Companion: Belinda Chandra Also featuring: Mrs. Flood First aired: 26th April 2025 Writer: Russell T Davies & Sharma Angel-Walfall Another Doctor drops out of the running as the 15th Doctor's highest placed episode features here, and it's a very respectable position for such a recent episode. The Doctor and Belinda join a group on a mission to the planet 6767, who are sent to investigate the loss of contact from its mining colony. Inside, they find every mirror is broken, and only one remaining survivor, but the most terrifying discovery for the Doctor is in the history of the planet itself. This episode was already one I was excited for, as so little was known about it beforehand. The tension was strong from the start, and Rose Ayling-Ellis delivered a knockout guest performance from the beginning, with some strong commentary on the treatment of deaf people and how easily it is to leave them out of conversations. I had seen whispers of the Midnight connection beforehand, but it still gave me goosebumps when the word "Midnight" was uttered on screen - what an exciting episode to give a sequel to! This episode manages to portray the Midnight entity in a new way, whilst still revealing next to nothing about what it is. It's definitely the creepiest episode of Ncuti Gatwa's tenure, and whilst it couldn't quite live up to the original episode, I still enjoyed this one thoroughly, and it's a keen reminder of just how great Doctor Who can be under RTD.
  3. Also confirmed not to be performing this year, but hopefully next! (with a load of nominations too x)
  4. I said it in Harry's thread but Taylor's tickets went on sale a couple of years back now, the ticket situation's escalated since then. Harry's tour is a notable one so it's getting the coverage, but it's pretty much applied to all arena and stadium tours recently, the prices have gone through the roof.
  5. The prices are bad though it's indicative of a general trend in the touring industry - companies pushing prices up continually (Eras tour went on sale a while back now, it's become worse since then), and this is just the next step in that trend unfortunately. I'll pay whatever for Harry and many others will too, which is why he'll still sell out the tour, but it does unfortunately penalise those who may not have the funds available for such expensive tickets.

    Updated the post on the previous page now the website page has updated again
  7. Wonder if As It Was was on a playlist that was promoted on Sunday so got a boost through that? Aperture rising back to #1 is great, was hoping for a more stable update today, shows the song has its fans!
  8. Back up to #1 on UK and US Spotify!
  9. 23 The Day of the Doctor 50th Anniversary Special Doctor: 11th Companion: Clara Oswald Also featuring: 10th Doctor, War Doctor, "Bad Wolf" Rose Tyler, Kate Lethbridge-Stewart, Osgood, The Curator First aired: 23rd November 2013 Writer: Steven Moffat Arguably the biggest event episode of the modern show's run, The Day of the Doctor marked a milestone 50 years of Doctor Who. The timelines of three Doctors converge - the 11th, the 10th, and another incarnation, one that later incarnations tried hard to forget. Together, they are faced with an enormous choice about the Time War, and how to end it, risking the whole of Gallifrey in the process. This episode did everything it needed to, and made for an excellent celebration of 50 years of the show. The comedy between all three Doctors was top notch, and a special shoutout must go to John Hurt, who excellently embodied the role of an older, more to-the-point Doctor, and notably one who was carrying the burden of the Time War on his back. I loved the twist of Billie Piper playing the Bad Wolf version of Rose, as the form chosen by the Moment, rather than an expected return as the real Rose. Clara also has her best episode yet, keeping all of the Doctors in check, and her quiet moment with the War Doctor was lovely. The Zygons were an inspired choice of enemy, too - a classic villain, but not one we'd seen in the modern show. And, to top it all off, after a small cameo from incoming Doctor Peter Capaldi, a surprise appearance from Tom Baker as the Curator, which gives me goosebumps every time I hear his voice. A phenomenally ambitious episode that hits every mark it needs to, and perfect for the event it marked!

    Yes this will play a part too (notably on the singles update where there isn't a top 200)

    Not quite - it's higher than Walls' first full week already. Faith in the Future was on 21,190 at this point in the week, ended on 35k.

    This is normal for sales vs streaming nowadays - it just shows how low downloads are across the board.
