Will the OCC change the rules again?
To be fair we have had some expected "big releases" from Harry Styles, Drake, Olivia R, Ariana and BTS - they just haven't had as much long-term domination as you'd expect. The Weeknd/Taylor released last year, I'm not sure who else who hasn't released could possibly outdo what has already come this year. (Adele maybe?)

Will the OCC change the rules again?
Radio is absolutely not the solution, it means songs by indie artists or songs that don't fit what an executive wants their station to sound like have an instant disadvantage. Not to mention radio is nowhere near as big as it once was and it would just prolong the chart runs of songs that are already past their peak. The best part about the UK chart is that it has no direct radio influence and it truly is the "people's chart". And yes curated playlists on streaming services are similar but at least in that case the listener has the option to skip a song.

They only need to sell around 5k more to seal the number one, I think they'll manage it!

The Reytons don't seem to be pushing for number one nearly as much as in the past, if they're in a position to challenge I hope they start rallying their fans on socials!

Based on what's left there may be another surprise entry (or one of the songs predicted to go to ACR has avoided)

It'll be interesting to see if Madonna/Kylie hold on to the top 40 but given first look sales are so low and it's all downloads it's unlikely. Would be interesting if they did!

It would be quite sad for a song based on generative AI to hit the top but it was gonna happen eventually...
