Hugel somehow snatching number 1 away from Sam/Olivia would have made this rough chart week feel better, shame.

I’m not being delulu in thinking she’ll come back in right? The Dolly entries were bound to push some songs out, but the song is everywhere, moreso than the Temper City and Malcolm Todd tunes which I personally hear nowhere and still linger like a ketchup stain on a t-shirt. Plus her album will be out next week which could get a few extra streams in there (not that I’m expecting the album to do much chartwise).

If Adela has dropped out then I hope it won’t be for long. Her album’s out next Friday so that could see her jump back in the week after if she doesn’t come back in next week.

Joy added 😍 Manhattan removed already 💔💔 Movin To The Sun too but to a lesser extent as it’s had its run.

Tickets go live tomorrow for her next London gigs and one is on my ACTUAL birthday omg

I’m so interested to see what happens in this series and see how different it is to the second book after how different the first series was, regardless it really was such a gripping watch and Ella is an absolute star!

People are being disgusting towards Ginger after she posted a picture and tribute to Dolly Parton (who she actually did meet) and a parody page used AI to replace her with another woman and even though you can tell by the hands and arms that it’s fake, Ginger had hit back at these people making comments and instead “fans” are doubling down saying that she deserved it for being a pathological liar. I may not be the fan of hers that I used to be, and why she made so much stuff up prior to this astounds me, but it really has me wondering why twinks of a certain headspace find the need to be so rotten to people they don’t even know. People have also sent loads of hate and death threats to Art just because she’s being pushed on vs the World and she’s clearly not a bad person, but it’s really affecting her. I can list so many queens who get this kind of hate and aside from those who have been predators (Sh*rry/S*ju), bigots (Sh*ron/N*na B*nina) or nasty bullies who behave the same way these so called fans do (Plane/Mistress) there’s little reason for people to act so vile. These kids weren’t raised right.

Ugh I wish I was wrong about Abigail but I saw it coming. Definitely shows how good Brooke is an actress though with how she often has me fooled into thinking she’s lovely and doesn’t have an ulterior motive. It’s also interesting to see this angle used for this kind of storyline, as uncomfortable as it can be.

I think it was "I'll love you until the day I die, Ste" - James arranged these cupcakes and got Beth to deliver them but she dropped them outside of his front door. Absolutely incredible if you ask me 😭

I would personally LOVE for Faith to make some sort of resurgence as it’s my favourite thing she’s put her name to, an absolute banger! I don’t think it would happen in any way though.

This doesn't feel real, I genuinely thought she'd be someone who would outlive all of us. I don't think there'll be anybody like her ever again - her heart always shone through with the work she did to build up communities and minorities and she served as an inspiration to so many of our faves who wouldn't be around if it wasn't for her.

I CAN’T BREATHE LMAOOO 😭😭😭

Her making Ain't In LA the final song on the tracklist making it close out on a banging note omg the brain she has!! I couldn't be more excited for this and I'm gutted that I'm not seeing her this evening 😭

So excited to see the video for this as it looks like a lot of fun!

I think we can make a new thread for it yes! The three of them being filmed for an upbeat looking video and the song being a tune of the week on Radio 1 should be proof enough. This song grown on me so much after hearing it outside of an album playthrough listening deeply to how powerful the words are although it’s actually Absolutely’s bit that makes it so special for me! Glad it’s getting a push

About time! Hollywood next.

Clocks next, not a bad song by any means but not their best either. Heard It All Before is an absolute banger! Shame it's on its way out but glad it got this far.

Not the Missy Booth from Ackley Bridge treatment 😭

I really wasn’t keen on first listen but it’s grown on me, really gets better when the non-distorted vocals kick in even if it’s quite a bit into the song. This song is like if Guess was actually good lol. I still prefer Too Easy though, don’t get the hate for it at all!

+5: Movin To The Sun +4: On 2nite +3: Hate That I Made You Love Me +2: Man I Need +1: Great Expectation -1: Dai Dai -2: Choosin Texas -3: The Cure -4: Rein Me In -5: Boston

I'll take it after once again being outside of the top 40 in the mids, but god damn it can this please get a rise!

The best song losing in a tiebreak to the worst 🙃

Another random thought just occurred to me that the new Hawkins kid is called Ryder Roper… this has similar energy to Miss Bumble 😭

Something random just occurred to me, surely Mini Kat would have been a better name than Mini Mo taking into account her species.

At this point I refuse to believe that this will be less than a top 20 hit bare minimum as it challenges Nightingale Lane as song of the year for me, I can’t get enough 😭
