Congrats on the triple Q streak Deandria! 👏

8 spots left - and probably at least 8 songs I'd like to see through across both semis!

Freidland Q streak 👏 another goodun from The Spodic Empire too (from a quick SF2 listen through earlier)!

Hurrah for getting points on the board in 2026! Congrats Lentyll on the Q streak too 👏

Hurrah, there were some DNQ predictions for the last two so I'm glad they were off! (albeit as someone who has DNQed more often with 100% Q predictions than without, I try not to put too much stock in them...)

Switching to 'Stutter'

Votes sent! Next stop: Club Bizarre...

Bella heading for a 2-3-2-3-2 trajectory... ...and 'Rein Me In' is looking more likely by the day to be the song to break the 'Thinking Out Loud' record run of 54 weeks Top 40 before 'Man I Need' has a chance to do so itself.

'Man I Need' is set to become the first song to spend 8 consecutive weeks in the Top 10 while on ACR - it managed 7 before Christmas as well as its current run ('Despacito' and 'Bad Habits' also had runs of 7).

BTS would be more likely to drop out I think

Yeah can't see either of these dropping out. Tame Impala with a Top 10 hit!

Was expecting this maybe Top 10, still time I guess. Looks like 'Dracula' and 'Babydoll' are in though!

Would be nice if this could still go Top 10 again

'Ordinary' climbing as many places as 'Where Is My Husband'

'Rein Me In' finally makes #1 on both the Audio Streaming and combined Streaming charts, having spent the last 4 weeks at #2 on each. No new peaks on the former chart for anything on ACR or starred out, although 'Bitter Sweet Symphony' comes close (a place below its #90 peak last August).

'Rein Me In' reaches its #1 peak on day 282 of a continuous streak 👏 New peaks also for '(When You Gonna)...' at #33 and 'Choosin' Texas' at #64.

Voted for everything bar the 'Don't Go' thing. The Sienna and Noah songs took a few listens to click, but both hold up well against the hits they're following up.

That was one of the easier choices I might have had to make, 'Big Hoops...' is quite a tune!

Sad to lose The Corrs without anything from Forgiven Not Forgotten turning up for them, but they had a good run.

1 HAIM - If I Could Change Your Mind 2 David Bowie - Ashes To Ashes 3 Nelly Furtado - Big Hoops (Bigger The Better) 4 ABBA - Super Trouper 5 Delta Goodrem - Believe Again 6 Kelly Clarkson - Never Again 7 ROSALÍA - PIENSO EN TU MIRÁ (Cap.3: Celos) 8 Florence + The Machine - Hurricane Drunk 9 Lily Allen - Madeline 10 Atomic Kitten - Be With You 11 The Corrs - Irresistible 12 Conan Gray - Maniac 13 Scissor Sisters - She's My Man 14 Troye Sivan - Bloom 15 Chappell Roan - Red Wine Supernova Another Bowie classic, this time pipped by one of HAIM's best songs which itself wears its 80s influences. Never been a fan of this Chappell song so the timing of her placement here is entirely unrelated to the whole saga (breakfastgate or whatever it ends up being known as).

They never read the title on air and would usually play the B-side 'No Man Army' instead. I think once they played an edited version on the chart show which cut out all the vocal sections.

Also #7 at one point: Olivia Dean - So Easy (To Fall In Love)

Nice one Grandwicky closely followed by 'There Is A Light...' it's my favourite Smiths song. I hope it didn't get too many low scores due to Morrissey going on to be Morrissey.

Switching to 'Have A Nice Day' as I got sick of hearing it in 2001 and never recovered.
