If I didn't win, I'll find being far in a way the last place cool as well, especially as this has been a chart week I'll remember Also curious if you're allowed to edit your predictions if it's before the deadline as well Also wonder if you guys have a method to these guesses or it's just pure guessing or something else entirely

YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

C'mon Sam & Kim

How do they have the Scottish and Welsh charts, I thought OCC discontinued the Scottish chart cause data collecting didn't differentiate between countries, and also I never seen the Welsh charts at all that's neat, also wonder if there's a Northern Ireland chart

Hope Unholy takes it, want to see a non-binary & trans artists get to #1 and also I'm Good is horrible not sure how anyone likes it and I'm usually the first to like cheesy europop samples

Also I'm curious if you guys do research and strategies for this or just have a guess at it

Did anyone notice how RUTH's original run used to be listed separately from its 2012 and 2022 run by the OCC, and now they're listed together, I think it's a lot neater, but also confusing as to why they did it in the first place, and if they'll combine other runs for songs that are listed separately.

how likely is Kate to get the #1 in following weeks, and I don't know how many follow it, but do you think Kate will top the Global 200?

Wait, why are we sure R.U.T.H. isn't going #1?

I know genres are very subjective and stuff I only mention SugarCrash as it charted on the Dance chart

Where is ElyOtto - SugarCrash! ?
