Never made the Freya / Florence connection but I can clearly see it now. Florence won my chart back in 2012 with Spectrum.

Thanks both. I must say I think "Freezing" is a phenomenal tune and really grows on you with each listen. I'm a huge fan of Laura Marano who I believe has never charted here - she has such a great likeable personality and her music is pretty decent too. Also very happy that Can't Tame Her has finally reached the Top 75 - it was about time!!!

Eurovision entry Mae Muller expected to appear next week. Morgan Cole and Inji both have a tune of the same name !!!

Cheers Sergej. Your appreciation is always welcome!

At least TWO new entries due next week. Zara Larsson back on the top spot with Pink in her highest ever placing. If Tiesto wins this year, he will be the first artist EVER to win two charts of the year, following on from his win in 2016.

Not looking likely after a 6 place fall in one day. Anything to get Never Gonna Not Dance Again up another place!

Yes I know it's had a reset, but how on earth is Green Green Grass charting so high again. And why? Who on earth is listening to it in vast numbers? Pretty sure no-one wants a song that's already had its Top 10 ten time back AGAIN.

WEEK ENDING 18 FEB 2022 - CHART 7 of 52 ********************** 1 (1) TIESTO ft TATE McRAE - 10.35 (4wks at No.1) 2 (2) Zara Larsson - Can't Tame Her (1wk at No.1) 3 (3) Tinashe - Scandalous (2wks at No.1) 4 (4) Jonasu & Alex Hosking - Who Cares? 5 (5) Caity Baser - Kiss You 6 (6) We Are Domi - Alive 7 (7) RAYE - Escapism 8 NEW Freya Ridings - Weekends 9 (9) Pink - Never Gonna Not Dance Again 10 NEW Tiesto - Lay Low ---------------------------------------------------- 11 (10) Mimi Webb - Red Flags 12 NEW Harry Styles - As It Was 13 (8) Rita Ora - You Only Love Me 14 (11) Metallica - Lux Aeterna 15 (12) Taylor Swift - Lavender Haze 16 (14) Ava Max - Dancing's Done 17 (17) Tiesto & Solardo - I Can't Wait 18 (18) Charli XCX - Baby 19 NEW Mimi Webb - Roles Reversed 20 (15) Pink - Trustfall 21 (13) Laura Marano - Bad Time / Good Time 22 (16) Clean Bandit & Elley Duhe - Don't Leave Me Lonely News Tiesto and Tate McRae hold on to the top spot in a week of high ranking non-movers. If Tiesto wins this year, he will be the first artist EVER to win two charts of the year, following on from his win in 2016. Harry Styles appears for the first time, after his impressive Brits 2023. Eurovision tunes on the way...

Potentially yet ANOTHER stagnant week in the Top 10 with six tunes already having notched up 10+ weeks on the chart. I can't understand how week after week the Top 3 songs keep generating streaming values in the same order. And it's not just these current tunes, the amount of stagnation on a regular basis is astounding.

With the entry of "Trustfall", Pink achieves two contenders in the Chart of the Year for the first ever time.

Completely agree. The exclusivity of a rare studio track from one of your favourite artists that can't be found anywhere else is highly appealing, especially if it's not put on YT. There are many tunes that don't make the final cut, understandable if they don't fit with the rest of the album. These could be lost for ever so why not attempt to make some money out of them - it used to be one of the main reasons I purchased certain CD singles.

Oh good. Seemingly yet ANOTHER tune from Central Cee. Just what the chart needs.

Pink finally makes the actual Top 40 with 'Never Gonna Not Dance Again' and also makes her appearance here. Her new single 'Trustfall' may not be far behind. Zara Larsson powers her way to the top with The Weeknd-esque 'Can't Tame Her' re-establishing her place as an exceptional re-inventor!

I'm not saying all women of a certain age can't be successful. Taylor Swift, Miley Cyrus and Adele clearly operate on another level and do have a huge fan base hence their ongoing success, and probably heavy label support. The likes of those I've mentioned plus Carly Rae Jepsen, Mabel, Nina Nesbitt, Maisie Peters as further examples are just never going to punch heavy which is a real shame as some of their music is really quite decent.

Female soloists in their mid-20s and upwards just don't seem to garner any streaming support. Rita Ora, Ava Max, Freya Ridings, Zara Larsson just don't have any chance of making the Top 40 nowadays which is a disgrace. But don't worry we have a stagnant Top 5 AGAIN. Oh, and let's have Rema still at No.6 after 22 weeks on chart.
