I'm very much in the minority unfortunately. The first half is very much what I wanted/expected from it, but then it just goes into silly territory about half way through and becomes a bit of a mess tonally. Jodie Comer absolutely shines in it though (hardly surprising). She's great! But unfortunately, it didn't do anything for me on the whole. I'm gutted I didn't connect as much with it as I would have liked to.

Bop! <3

Yeahhhh! Ugh. I assume her signal is rubbish atm

OMG she's confirmed physicals are likely on their way! She didn't realise until a couple of days ago that there wasn't any and she doesn't like that she has done physicals for everything else but nothing for this right now. She said they're probably gonna do special bundles for it to make it worthwhile.

Finished work and finally got around to watching the video. I love it! She just understands the whole popstar schtick. I love her so much!

Up 10 to 46 in the US!

Omg. They really should’ve given us a start/middle of the Summer album release. I still don’t understand why they chose THAT week in September in particular. Plastic Box doing it’s job and selling the album! 😍

Radio 1 have been INSANE with their support for her. This is straight to B List for them. Expected for Capital. They’ll use artists for clout and then drop them upess it becomes a WW smash… Pathetic. Expected level of support from Spotify, sadly, but what can we do, eh? I’m at work so can’t view the video yet. But hype!

She's 6 for 6 for me... that's INSANE! One of my favourite release runs ever.

I'm kinda annoyed this looks like it won't be getting a physical release just for completion sake lmaooooo! Grrr. But anyway... I'm ofc obsessed. It's beautiful.

Central Cee feat. Sexyy Red Fred again... feat. Skepta & PlaqueboyMax HAIM Benson Boone Loyle Carner Ed Sheeran (F1 Soundtrack) JADE Order of the New Music Friday Playlist. If I followed the new releases closer and knew all of these were releasing I'd have probably assumed she would be where she is tbh.

Yep. Every bit as lush and STUNNING as I expected. The production is GORGEOUS!

Disco Lines & Tinashe up to a new peak of #49 on Spotify!

Looks like it's Kesha!

No more spoilers aha *just in case* It's only fair to get through on the merit of the song in comparison to the rest of the field!

I very nearly did think about changing to 'Not In Love'! I love that song and feel that it's forgotten about in the grand scheme of things. However, I decided against it as I needed to save the biggest hitters he had left, for the live shows otherwise I would be utilising this song in the live shows instead! (In hindsight probably wouldn't have been a necessarily bad idea)

SO hyped to see this tomorrow. I assumed it'd have great reviews. Looks like horror could be in for it's best year (at least critically) possibly ever?

Fifth Harmony & CHVRCHES with another great choice! This round will be tough... went for RD for Enrique, coz I need the other more obvious big hitters for later if I was to succeed... however, I never thought I'd get through the Golden Wagner stage with anything tbh, but on the very unlikely choice I would get through, I wanted the rest of them available! Hope I get to use them, but I agree. I think Addison is winning this part.

So this is apparently produced by Oscar Görres! He has credits on: Troye Sivan - My! My! My! (!) Troye Sivan - One of Your Girls (!!) Ariana Grande - supernatural (!!!) Carly Rae Jepsen - Run Away With Me (!!!!!!!!!!!) MY GAHD. Friday cannot come soon enough!

TikToker/Popstar Eli is set to release her debut song 'girl of ur dreams' on Friday (20th June) and it's been building in hype for well over a month now. Co-signed by Troye Sivan, Doechii, Lizzy McAlpine and reposted by various other TikTok influencers. It's very early 00's, meets Troye and it sounds like a pop banger! Can't wait to hear it in full! I think it could be pretty big.

I'm honestly not sure any competition would really change JADE's chart fortunes with this tbh. I'm expecting it to just miss the top 40 (although with no physicals to boost it... maybe worse?). I'm not even sure it'll hit the top 200, release week on Spotify for some reason. Honestly, I think RobBot is right in that NMF will have this below Benson, HAIM and Cardi and I reckon there will (as usual) be a couple of "WTF?" above her (and don't forget NMF has basically little to no impact anymore) But ultimately just enjoy the music <3

Zara for me and Sabrina in the tie-break!

Expect big things for Eli - Girl Of Your Dreams which is (finally) released on Friday. Huge Tik Tok hype and major stars have been supporting it for weeks and weeks. I mean, a chance for it to ofc not do anything, but I think it’ll be big and will be worth keeping an eye on.
