I guess because GA had more albums/singles?

I wouldn’t, this forum is full of Raye fans it seems. I just don’t get why we are predicting NEXT weeks number 1 is Raye. Some superstar might release and “block” her. I can see SZA getting more attention next week too…

People are assuming she will but it’s a week away still and SZA may increase in streams

Hope SZA stops Raye getting to number 1

As per my previous post, it’ll scrape top 50 EOY. You don’t know any better than me! Have a fab Xmas x

Great but SM went to number 1 in Jan and ended up 47th so that’s my comparison. Again, feel free to disagree and move on.

Sweet Melody did similar and came out at 47th… Just a prediction, you don’t have to agree.

Taylor Swift to continue Midnights era and releases 2 TVs (Speak Now and 1989) during Rihanna to release greatest hits with new singles leading up to Super Bowl ABBA to release new material following from winning AOTY at Grammys Escapism to do a Sweet Melody and go to number 1 on low sales week in Jan and scrape top 50 of 2023 Eurovision act for U.K. goes to number 1 but drops quickly Olivia Rodrigo returns with number 1 single and album Dua Lipa releases new album

Forgetting the rules here but All I Want For Christmas Is You is a perfect pop song and a wonderful Christmas favourite. Deserves number 1 every year

The Queen of Christmas is extending her reign! Long live the Queen

Ah I see! I looked on the official charts website and only saw 23 weeks as the single song

Surprised Last Christmas only has 23 weeks in top 10

Iconic song and richly deserved record breaker

The better song won

On a website like statsforspotify I have loads of Christmas songs in my top played but on my “on repeat” on Spotify, it never shows them. Not just this year either. Anyone know why?

Niall Horan, Mabel, Sam Ryder

I liked her first album but since then… what’s happened? She went from a 10 to 2 and desperate to be a 7. I haven’t even heard her viral song but she’s not doing the same numbers as she was 7/8 years ago. It’s just and odd career.

People forget you can buy 3,4,5+ CDs at a time and it’s counting as a sale. 90s wasn’t a golden era. Artists will do what they need to do…

Meghan Trainor’s career baffles me. She went from best news artist to flopstar/cringestar

Taylor will go to number 1. It’s original material and she’ll pull some tricks out of the bag. She won’t move the date either. The last album did really well and was a glorified re-release.

Consumers aren’t passive, if they buy multiple versions then it’s a sale for each. They want to do it. If you bought two copies of a CD and gave one away as a present then why should that not be considered two sales?

Didn’t no good advice go to number 2?

Don’t Cry For Me Argentina

So Susan Boyle sold really well for 4 weeks (?) and then just dropped. Didn’t she sell less than 2 million overall?

Yes it is
