Confirmed by the BRITs WhatsApp channel idk how to add screenshots

Sabrina Carpenter is confirmed to perform and recieve the Global Success Award.

There was a blind item before her and Barry broke up, the one that started the rumor that he cheated, and in that blind item what it said was that Barry features heavily in the video and sabrina wanted to get to January without news of the breakup getting out for the sake of the video. If that had any truth to it, maybe she scrapped it after the breakup got leaked

3x platinum Is it that sweet? I guess so Pleasex3 is coming for 2x soon

I get what you're saying, but I'd counter to say that I'd rather have a stagnant chart that reflects how successful individual albums are than I would a slightly more fluid chart that allows for essentially lifetime achievement awards for successful artists. If a big classic album re-enters and never leaves the chart because the greatest hits albums are removed, to that I say fair play, they created a successful album. 7 out of the top 20 last week rewarding artists for having a popular catalog is also incredibly boring in its way. I appreciate that a badly written rule will allow for loopholes, but i think the argument is just for a better written rule

I don't get why the solution wouldn't just be streaming a song only counts towards the album in which it first released from that lead artist. It would clear the clutter of greatest hits albums on the charts, no back and forth would happen because the greatest hits album would be neutered, you wouldn't have to worry about what album the song is listed on because they'd all just go towards the original album, and if you worded it right artists who share lead credit could both put the song on their albums and it'd count for both. Plus, these days do the charts really make a greatest hits album sell better than if it's not allowed to chart? Spotify pays the same regardless and i feel like most people get their news about physical releases of these greatest hits albums via social media or email or whatever

That didn't help, but half the weeks were caused by ILYIS having 4 weeks in the top 5 in an ACR chart but 0 in the non-ACR chart

I thought it'd be interesting to look at who was most impacted by ACR this year. I took JulianT's estimated non-ACR chart and compared it to the official chart. The way I decided to go about it is by counting up how many times each performer had a #1, a top 5 spot, or a top 10 spot. Artists who got more weeks in each bracket because of ACR, I'm calling the biggest gainers. Artists who would've had more weeks in each bracket if ACR didn't exist, I'm calling the biggest losers #1s biggest gainers 1. Beyonce +2 2. Benson Boone +1 3. Gigi Perez +1 4. Gracie Abrams +1 #1s biggest losers 1. Noah Kahan -3 2. Sabrina Carpenter -1 3. Wham -1 biggest gainers in top 5 1. Gracie Abrams +8 2. Rosé +6 3. Myles Smith +4 4. Bruno Mars +3 5. 7 way tie (Charli XCX, Djo, Gigi Perez, Kendrick Lamar, Sonny Fodera/Jazzy/D.O.D, Teddy Swims & Tom Grennan) +2 biggest losers in top 5 1. Sabrina Carpenter -8 2. Noah Kahan -7 3. Shaboozey -5 4. 3 way tie (Bobby Helms, Hozier, Lady Gaga) -3 Biggest gainers in Top 10 1. Dasha +15 2. Bl3ss/CamrinWatsin/Bbyclose +8 3. Charli XCX +7 4. Kendrick Lamar +6 5. Sonny Fodera/Jazzy/D.O.D +6 Biggest losers in top 10 1. Benson Boone -18 2. Hozier -13 3. Sabrina Carpenter -11 4. Shaboozey -10 5. Billie Eilish -6

Bed chem also has physicals coming. I like the odds for a 1 week jump into the top 5 if those both happen same week

Lol that was a stupid moment for me

rich men north of Richmond as well

Cool to see Feather and Nonsense both go platinum

Hey just wanna say thanks Julian for posting these each week, the estimated numbers have to be time consuming to put together, and it's very appreciated

I think a lot of people just hate Ava's style of interpolating everything. Nothing she does is offensive to my ears, but it does feel like she's ok with only being the person who is successful because you have nostalgia for the songs she's building off of, and I csn see why that bothers people

Hell yeah, some high school musical 2 love

I think the only question now in the top 5 is if Billie can get to Noah. 6-10 is gonna be interesting in the final 3 weeks I think

Love to see a nonsense Christmas at its peak. Hoping the special boosts it enough to chart, at least til Sabrina and Chappell release the cover of Last Christmas they did, of course

Oh cool Thank you!

Short N Sweet looks good to jump 2 spots this week I don't really expect it to be, but out of curiosity, is Emails I Can't Send in the top 100?

It lacks all substance. It comes off to me like a cheaply made song that a Disney child would perform. Like, listen to Hero off the Starstruck Disney channel movie soundtrack and tell me Who wouldn't fit right alongside it

+12 Benson Boone- Beautiful Things +10 Jimin- Who +08 Ice Spice- Think U The Sh*t (Fart) +07 Katy Perry- Woman's World +06 Kanye West and Ty Dolla $ign- Carnival +05 Gracie Abrams- That's So True +04 David Guetta and OneRepublic- I Don't Wanna Wait

Juno going silver The UK wants to try out some freaky positions confirmed

I feel like we've forgotten collectively how crazy 2024 has been. Like we can talk about how stale the charts have been at times, and it feels like these stars have been here for a long time now just cause we hear them every week. But Sabrina Carpenter went from someone counted out by everyone but her most hardcore fans to the most weeks at #1 in a year in over 70 years, Chappell Roan went from completely unknown to spending half the year in the top 10, and Charli XCX somehow had a cultural event bigger than either of them with Brat summer. Nobody could've seen it coming

Glad to see short n sweet hit platinum, well deserved

Theres exactly 1 way i can think of that she's technically eligible. And that's if they don't count ACR, and the cutoff is for the chart's w/e date. And even with all that, she's only eligible by 3 days.
