Thank god, I hated the fact that Popular was Madonna’s latest new top ten.

Omg Kylie and Madonna top 8

why is Unwritten suddenly back in the top 70?

This has been one of the slowest climbs to platinum of a 2010s number one right. 465,000 pure by January 2012, 566k by December 2012. If my math is right, ever since then it averaged out one 57 sales unit every week for the past 14 years.

Even if it did need Spider-Man to get there, I am so glad Steve Lacy has another big hit, especially one thats happening in at the same time as Malcolm Todd, considering he broke out by pretending his music was leaked Lacy demos.

Tate McRae is teasing a new album, first likely single out for the VMAs in late September. Wild chart but Troye Sivan is also releasing Q4 as well (only teasing so far) and after his most successful era last time, I imagine there will be more interest to potentially go at least top ten.

"Vindicated" by Dashboard Confessional is the closing credits song from 2004's "Spider-Man", a terrific emo ballad.

Thank you Tracy Chapman I would stick up for about a half dozen or so of his big hits (Even Though I’m Leaving, Doin This, Going Going Gone, Fast Car, Where the Wild Things Are) plus the entirety of his "Fathers & Sons" album which tanked for some reason.

Lowkey a streaming force 7 platinum songs 3 gold songs 10 silver songs

You put music on television and people engage with it, what a concept.

Some of those capital inclusions make sense (Rag/Pink, Beatles, Encanto, Wicked, 3 Lions). I don’t get why Backbone, Tattoo, Who, & Abracadabra (Wes) wouldn’t be play listed though.

OCC Top ten placement for KATSEYE?

would Hips Don’t Lie be eligible for a reset ?

I can’t believe people actually like this, genuinely thought this was one of the those early 2010s hits that would be lost to time.

At least Capaldi finally got to strain his voice by singing a good song off key, for once.

Some nice impact from their current uk tour.

Also such a sign of the times that Rebel Heart got blocked from No.1 in the US by the Empire soundtrack.

Benny Blanco (the song’s producer, and the future Mr. Selena Gomez) shared some bts on the song in a podcast interview recently, as he was the main producer behind Kesha’s debut album and EP (surprise surprise Dr. Luke was credited in name only). Every track on Animal/Cannibal was exactly 120 BPM because he was that much of a novice he didn’t know you could change the BPM settings on the tech. The bridge consisting purely "DJ Turn It Up-Up-Up" repeated with more autotuned vocals every time was because of a deadline crunch. Kesha’s was touring and didn’t have time to record the actual bridge and the label needed a finished product by midnight to send to the CD press. So Benny took the very first line she sings in the song "DJ Turn It Up" and made that the bridge instead.

I assume Unfaithful was back at #60 because the X factor effect?

has the ‘new’ Beyonce song (it’s been a unreleased fan favourite for over a decade now) showing up on Apple yet? The only global chart (according to kworb it’s appeared on so far is AM Brazil at #22, {#6} without the Madonna album bomb).
