Spotify & Apple Music Chart Discussion
I think they could too, although I think it will obviously depend if they can reach #1 on Spotify by Monday and if they can get a decent lead. Unfortunately we don't know what kind of lead they have on itunes at the moment. And of course, even if Lewis does reach #1 on its first week (which is quite likely) that doesn't mean it will be #1 for ages or I'm Good won't overtake at some point.

iTunes Weekly Thread w/c 2nd September 2022
David/Bebe with I'm Good is now #1 on itunes
-
Lewis Capaldi - Forget Me
That sounds decent from the preview. It will be interesting to see if he can get a #1 with it? His album will reach #1 either way though.

Spotify & Apple Music Chart Discussion
Could afraid to feel actually end up reaching number one in a few weeks as it's climbing very quickly? I did feel lizzo had a chance originally but she won't make it now unless she is lucky with ACR with Harry.

Sweden (Melodifestivalen) · Eurovision Song Contest 2022
Does anyone know if SVT are doing English commentary tomorrow for the final like they did last year?

Goya Menor & Nektunez - Ameno Amapiano
Hopefully this will come back to Spotify soon. I read that it is a licensing issue but weird how it is still on Apple/Itunes? Its looking likely to go top 10 on itunes soon so hopefully it will be back soon.

Måneskin - Teatro d'ira: Vol. I
Have they mentioned anymore about Volume 2 coming out this year?

Måneskin - Teatro d'ira: Vol. I
Has there been any word if there is going to be a video? If not, if I was the label I would re-edit the studio live performance from Youtube and use that instead.

Goodboys - Bongo Cha Cha Cha
So this is finally out today, it's stayed the same length but the sample has changed (presumably they couldn't use the original). I hope this is big still, can see radio 1 supporting it.

Eurovision winner odds (top 10)
France are favourite again? I still don't see it myself. I can definitely see them close to the top of the jury vote but is it really going to be top 5 on the televote? Am I right that it looks like Iceland has shortened again?

Eurovision Song Contest 2021 · Running Order Discussion
Alot of people seem to think they may bury Iceland so they don't win which would be a shame. I have no idea who is going to win at the moment so the order will be interesting. Shame Iceland, Malta, Cyprus and Switzerland are all first half really but obviously they still have a chance to win from the first half.

Goodboys - Bongo Cha Cha Cha
Oh this does sound big to me too! Can see it being big in Europe over the Summer. They better hurry and release it though, I've noticed that rival versions are already appearing on Spotify.

Sweden (Melodifestivalen) · Eurovision Song Contest 2021
Any reason why you think Tusse to win? Does any one remember where dotter came in the twlevote and jury last year? I remember it was sooo close

Monrose
It's the same with No Angels. Some of their songs could have easily become UK hits (if covered by a UK act). I know No Angels were hoping to be launched in the UK and they even appeared on GMTV but it never came to anything. Hot Summer could have been big here.

Miley Cyrus feat. Dua Lipa - Prisoner
Love this also. It looks like this is getting supported on Spotify too, its the first song on Today's Hot Hits and Hot Hits Australia so far, I would imagine it will be first on Hot Hits UK later.

Fever (with Angèle) • Sixth Single
This has debuted at #1 in Wallony and #3 in Flanders

Miley Cyrus - Plastic Hearts
If it does it would have been brought forward to avoid Ariana

New Zealand Chart Thread - 2020
I've been enjoying the NZ chart again the last couple of years. Whats the record for longest stay in the top 10? In the Air has been quietly building its stay and is moving down quite slowly. I am a bit surprised that it hasn't been launched worldwide actually and that its stayed a local (massive) hit. Any idea why its been so big? I really thought earlier in the year it would cross over, even if it was just Australia.

Australian Chart Thread 2020
It will be interesting to see where BTS land at the weekend. I know the digital #1 can't be selling more than 1,000-2,000 nowadays but it has an incredible lead on itunes and its top 20 on Spotify. If it wasn't for WAP's massive streams I would have bet it could have been a #1 for them.

Club Future Nostalgia • Remix Album
I'm a bit gutted that If It Ain't Me isn't on there. Didn't Dua say that it would be coming at some point? I wonder if there is a plan to released a deluxe edition towards Christmas?

iTunes Weekly Thread W/C 27th March 2020
I am not sure if this questions has been asked before but I have been using LivePopBars for many years. However, I have recently noticed that's figures (bars) don't match Kworb like they used to. Therefore, does anyone know which one is more accurate? For example, Little Mix is doing double on Kworb but on LivePopBars its only 0.73. Its different in all countries, not just the UK though.

Thrown away winners/huge smashes
What about Danny Amazing in 2012? I would imagine that could have won the whole thing too if that had been chosen and not Loreen. I would imagine that would have gone to Eurovision any other year.

Top of the Pops - Christmas/New Years 2019
Did they count down the top 10 of the year like they have the last few years?

Global hits that charted low/flopped/weren't released here
What a great idea for a thread. I thought about doing a similar thread. Some great examples. Friends forever and is passion would have been massive here. I am always surprised some songs are never pushed here. I've always wondered why? Or even why Ireland get them and we don't. How about daddy dj? Massive euro hit in 2001 Also aicha by outlandish. Big hit in 2003 and thought it had lots of potential here. I also why uk labels don't cover euro songs more. For example no angels had some big pop songs and whilst they were geared to the German market some of their songs could have easily been covered by a UK group. Break my stride by unique ii is one of my fav songs. I still can't believe it wasn't pushed here. In 1997 it would have easily gone top 3 in my opinion

Rat City - Kind of Love
I discovered this song last week and feel it has the potential to be a big summer hit here (if given the chance). Its already been a big hit in Norway and #1 on airplay there. I could see radio getting behind it here too.. lxp1Qju9qog?list=RDlxp1Qju9qog
