Thanks Seltin! Katy's song is great, as you can see it's already shooting up my chart! Benson's song is pretty good, yeah I really thought it was going to smash, weird that it hasn't. And as for Sombr... well see for yourself

Hi Jordan! 1. Teddy Swims – Mr. Know It All [26-13-5-1] Well this is a very worth number one I must say! So catchy! 2. Gracie Abrams – Hit The Wall [30-15-2] I don't find this anything special, it's fine to listen to but I doubt I'll remember it well in years to come. 3. Olivia Rodrigo – Stupid Song [11-3] 4. Ariana Grande – Hate That I Made You Love Me [3-4] 5. Olivia Rodrigo – The Cure [1-5] 6. Sombr – My Body Isn’t Ready Oh yes very deserving of highest new entry! I don't get the negative comments I've seen about this, I think it's a brilliant song and he sounds great on it too 9. Olivia Rodrigo – Drop Dead [16-3-4-9] Wow three Olivia songs in your top 10, when did an artist last achieve that I wonder? All three are brilliant songs but this one remains my favourite 12. Anotr & 54 Ultra – Talk To You [32-26-16-12] 13. Taylor Swift – I Knew It, I Knew You [21-13] 22. Shakira & Burna Boy – Dai Dai This is undeniably catchy! I'm glad it's given her another smash so late in her career but I'm equally surprised at it hanging around long after the World Cup has finished 25. Benson Boone – The Time Of My Life I kinda want to love this, but as it is I just quite like it - if that makes sense! 26. Gracie Abrams – Look At My Life Pretty much the same comment as for 'Hit The Wall' 27. Bruno Mars – Risk It All [17-22-5-10-27] 29. Harry Styles – American Girls [8-4-9-8-29] 30. OneRepublic – Need Your Love [27-19-14-30] 34. Bebe Rexha & David Guetta – Sad Girls 38. Sombr – Homewrecker [2-1-5-6-12-38] 39. Alex Warren – Fever Dream [15-13-7-20-39] There definitely appears to be less I like from your chart this month but I think it's a case of me not having heard a lot of the ones that I've removed!

Hell freezing over it would seem.

Of the previous 8 Script albums, including a GH, 6 of them went to #1 (the other two were #2) so I imagine they'll try to push for another #1, but I do think they'll be frontloaded so I wouldn't be surprised to see Phoebe hang on, I guess it depends if her streams can hold up throughout the week. I don't know how strongly either of them are playing the variants game though.

I'll be voting against tighter criteria - as long as the song isn't too well known I don't think it should matter that it charted for a week at #37 in 1993 or whatever. I guess a Spotify streams threshold is a better way to do it but even then it doesn't give the whole story of how well known a song is.

I spy a definite top 40 hit in there despite the "no charting songs" rule! Not complaining though as I really like the song. An interesting list of artists anyway, some I know, many I haven't heard of - looking forward to giving them a listen this week.

Because it wasn't an official single.

Wow this is really good! Go Natty B! Do we know if an album's coming?

OMG 'Hootie Fruitti' is brilliant, so much fun! Pure unadulterated pop, this is what we want from them. The whole EP is decent, 'Bel Air' is decent too, it's only the 5th song which feels a bit weak.

The album is decent, maybe even my favourite from them! Really loving 'Someday, Somewhere' in particular at the moment.

Yeah it's a "thanks but no thanks" from me.

Guessing the record label have only now decided to send it to radio as a single? That's how it always used to work, not sure if things have changed.

I haven't had my morning coffee yet

Thanks, I wasn't paying too much attention to last week's and I haven't updated my spreadsheet yet so she didn't come up when I searched for her! Anyway I've removed the first time tag for her in the OP.

Calvin and Harry finally off, about time. Thanks to everyone who kept the playlist going in my absence!

It was also an eclipse of the sun rather than the heart but there you go - if only the song had been called 'Partial Eclipse Of The Sun' it would be number one by now

Hey dude! Well watch this space but justice may be coming to be served next week Yeah Becky has done well, the next single sounds promising too so maybe that will go top 10 too. I think the main reason for charting Katy this late is that I've been on holiday so my chart's been frozen for 3 weeks. I do like the song, I think top 20 is a given, while top 10 is a possibility at this stage, we'll see Thanks Thanks Sergej, good to see that there's plenty taking your fancy this week

What's his birth month got to do with anything? Do people listen to an artist more during their birth month?

They definitely ignored 'Hips Don't Lie' at the time. 'Spinning Around' I'm not sure about, I don't remember it being ignored but I might be wrong, maybe someone with a better memory than me can confirm.

I can see FLO ending up at #4 now, unless they have physicals not yet counted.

4 singles in 4 months, she's really throwing them out there this era!
