'party 4 u' is not one of my favourites from that album but I'm happy to see anything from it gaining traction really, criminally overlooked album commercially even by pre-BRAT Charli standards!

Voted! I thought I was fairly happy with the 10 songs I had in my votes on first listen but there was one song that grew on me a lot on second listen so had to make a painful cut to accommodate. I have 13 or 14 vote-worthy songs from this semi so hopefully none of the 3 or 4 that missed out DNQ by like 1 point etc. (am I delusional or is Scotland 2 a win contender this month xx)

4 more of my former song contest artists showing up here (3 from BJSC and 1 from Club Bizarre) me being such a tastemaker this month

The Ting Tings are not DNQing on my watch x

https://sync-tube.de/room/ApAM3t-I Semi 1 listenthrough from a little after 8pm

Davido does have genuine popularity but the Spotify showing today definitely looks like bots oop - all of his entries from yesterday have dropped out and he has 3 new entries which are the last 3 songs on the album, 2 of which have debuted higher than his highest entry yesterday.

I've never had problems with the site crashing/being slow on desktop! (It's not great on mobile though...) The chart history pages are riddled with errors and inconsistencies but tbf the old website didn't have those pages at all so it's still an improvement.

I was hoping a Fontaines D.C. deluxe release could finally get to #1 but I think this release is a little too lowkey (and seems to not have any physicals), shame as it looks like the bar for #1 is going to be very low so a decent deluxe push could have done it quite easily! I don't think I see Davido doing enough to hit #1 (his last album debuted at #10 with 5.3k, I don't think he's going to be more than doubling that) so assuming it'll be Sabrina back at #1 this week unless I'm really underestimating the physical sales for one of the other new releases.

Oh right. Were you just listening to the embedded version on here then? In that case yeah will need to play a different upload on SyncTube so thanks for the info x

Burial video definitely works fine for me - what was happening when you tried to play it? (And yes sorry anyone who wanted Monday for the semi 1 listenthrough but following discussion in the Pop Forum Song Contest thread it is gonna be today with the PFSC listenthrough coming tomorrow x)

Imagine creating this thread and not even mentioning his magnum opus ('Tribute').

I was thinking either Sunday or Monday but I will do Sunday if you're doing Monday

Oh yes... I demand justice for 'Spider Pig'!!

Keep the count going (until 2 more people vote for Robyn x)
