Honestly was expecting a larger drop considering how uncommercial this is. Can’t wait for it to have a resurgence in 5 years time à la Vroom Vroom & Party 4 U.

It was supposed to cover the 1993 allegations. The director is on record saying the opening scene was supposed to be a police raid on Neverland and him being stripped searched. They filmed a lot of stuff post-bad, Jaafar posted BTS pics of him in the Dangerous era. They had to stop midway through due to legal issues and then Frankenstein-d whatever footage was left into the theatrical released film, in that sense it’s very similar to what happened to the 2017 Justice League film.

It’s been a hot minute since an R&B song by a British artist took off. Rooting for this.

Urgh, I really want Human Nature to chart top 40 for the first time.

Not quiet the same imo, since all of those tracks except Ordinary had legitimate cultural moments allowing them to re-enter the top 40. That’s different than RMI just narrowly managing to avoid ACR every other week.

the concept of Shakira needing Zara Larsson’s help to get her 2nd top 40 hit of the past 12 years.

Capital FM Summertime Ball 2026
Guys I know DOMO is Robyn’s song, i put the eye roll emoji in my post because that’s what I imagine the average summertime ball goer will think when she performs it. Speaking from experience as the amount of people I know who are disappointed she ‘ruined it’ by ‘making it uptempo’. 🙄

Thought this was forgotten in the grand scheme of things vis-à-vis MJ songs, colour me shocked to see it here.

Robyn is such an odd choice for this. Correct me if I’m wrong I can’t recall the station playlisting her in at least a decade. I’m 99% the audience would think she’s doing a cover of the Callum Scott song (🙄) when she performs Dancing on My Own.

I wasn’t familiar with this Take That song but I can hear the similarities even if there isn’t an official sample credit. If this song occurred post-Blurred Lines then a sample credit would’ve absolutely happened.

not surprising Human Nature is the track rising so fast after seeing the film. Its one of only two songs where the entire track is performed in the film (alongside Bad).

2026 BPI Certifications
Thanks, I haven’t tried it on iPad yet (and not have a desktop pc) but will do later. Literally the trying to access to search bars (main one & artist) and the site just isn’t allowing that at all.

I need this to avoid ACR just for one more week until the Girls Trip remix with PinkPantheress (out May 1st) sends the song into the top ten.

Does the BPI certified site just not work for anyone else now on mobile and tablet devices? I tried to get into the search bar features and it just kept not allowing it.

The BuzzJack Friday Chart Show Thread: 24th April 2026
If I had a penny from every best one of the best pop songs of the year (Click Clack Symphony & One Of Your Girls) rose to #11 in it’s second and was blocked from the top ten by a song featuring Jung Kook at #10 in its debut week. I would have two pennys, which isn’t a lot but it’s weird it happened twice.

I think that was purely on technicality though. Since there was four versions of the songs that gained significantly - LAP album, Immaculate collection version, Celebration version and the choir version on D&W soundtrack.

112 Top 100 on OCC probably guaranteed.

I completely forgot about Bieber’s features also charting due to the 3 song rule as well. Eenie Meenie & Let Me Love You are probably safe for a reset. Maybe Where Are U Now and Stay as well depending on how OCC decides to class those.

Actually yeah, but it’s called “bedroom pop”.
-
Streaming Services Chart Discussion; W/C 10/04/26
Oh that’s basically one uptempo dance pop from 2008-2013, usually with an emphasis on “tonight” and “partying”. Think most of early work from Kesha, Pitbull, LMFAO, Jason Derulo, David Guetta. And individual songs like Dynamite by Taio Cruz, Just Dance by Gaga, I Gotta Feeling etc. Never associated the genre with Beauty and The Bieb before but yeah does make sense, Zedd’s drop, the production, the lyrics. All stereotypical recession pop.

How high do we think House Tour can go if retains its music video/coachella boast?
