Including Michael in mine tonight, as this is my first one. I never thought I’d enjoy a Tory, but he came across lovely and very entertaining.

You all need to remember that 'Die With a Smile' entered low 20's at the start on Spotify, and it wasn't until a good few days in it started to rise, and people were saying it was flopping in the first few days it was out, and then ended up being one of the biggest hits of the year. As soon as I heard the new Ed one, I thought it definitely sounded like a hit, we have to give songs time sometimes. I think the more people hear it, the better it will do.

I adore this so much. It sounds EXACTLY what they should be doing, along with the big in-your-face pop bangers like ‘Jungle’. Its left of field, lushly produced, harmony led neo-soul. It’s the perfect mix of Siobhan’s love of the more complex melodies from her solo stuff & Keisha and Mutya’s love of R&B/Alternative R&B. It feels mature and it feels like they really know how to make the most of their combination as a three here. No other line up combination could ever do this song, which is why it’s so special.

I honestly hate Ed Sheeran, but for me it’s probably his best single ever? I hate that I really like it.

‘IT Girl’ lost 442k streams between Friday to Sunday (697k to 255k)… this has lost a considerably less 338k streams (647k to 309k). That shows this has much better replay value for the GP, and I expect the streams to remain stable and rise this week a bit from where we are. Also it being the highest she’s been on Apple Music since AOMD suggests this has a lot more potential. I think it’s place on Apple, and the relatively stability on Spotify in comparison to ‘IT Girl’, should mean surely it’s going to be fine to stay top 40 (even if it’s 30-40 region).

Hoping JADE can at least stay top 200 on second day… that will be the tell tale sign. I think she could do it, as even half of Friday’s streams should be JUST enough to stick top 200. I do believe the song has much more commercial appeal and replay value, than her last few.

Answer to my own question is 67,000 streams on Spotify from yesterday - with today’s playlisting I’m hoping for an extra 80-90k for today worldwide, which is a great start. Also the music video has only been up for 27 hours and is already on 88,000 on YouTube. Should hit 100,000 views by the morning, which is BRILLIANT for a day and a half, for a so-called “legacy act”. People are absolutely checking this out!!

I adore the song, but for me it’s her worst video so far. I love the storytelling, but it lacked a little energy for the song. I was really glad that finally she danced in the last part, I would be appreciated much more of that up front. I think it needed it to sell the song.

Apparently the earliest she’s showed up on Apple thus far?

I can’t stop listening… the replay value is insane! Mutya’s part is the pop moment of a f***ing lifetime… I know we aren’t expecting too much here on charts/streams but I’m interested to see the worldwide streams for first 24 hours. Am I crazy in hoping that, 100k worldwide could be possible? Maybe I’m aiming too high.

I love her but I would be happy if I never heard this again in my life

The more I listen, the better it gets! Today’s streams do count towards next weeks charts, just not today’s downloads right? I was under impression that the streaming week was counted Thurs-Thurs? Or am I wrong?

Why would SNL impact UK charts? It's not as if it's gone viral, it has received just over 1 million YouTube hits in 48 hours globally, so I would imagine only a very small amount of UK residents will have seen it. It has also had great playlisting throughout... it was always going to decrease throughout the week as album streams tail off a little.

Great to see Ravyn Lenae continuing to rise... such an unexpected hit from one of the best albums of 2024. Every song on the record is gold. Also amazing to see Doechii up to 5. 'Anxiety' isn't my favourite but it's clear she's coming for her second top 10 within a month. Her star just keeps on rising, and can't think of anyone more deserving.

This sounds so much more authetic from her! It is very Rose Gray's latest album and as thats been one of my favourites this year, I am on very on board with this sound...

Am I delusional to think we should be expecting this one to debut top 40 right? It just feels like the timing is right - hype after The BRITS win and performance, much more commercial sounding big pop song, physicals alongside on release week and hopefully they have music video ready to go for release day. That, all along with the fact the singles chart sales is a lower threshold than for a while. I don't want to get my hopes up too much, and we know that chart placement doesn't mean quality, but she deserves a second charting single this time!

Wow at Ushers lead and at how much SFG have fallen off already! Hope Kelis can overtake Prof.G, not too far off it now :w00t: although I think Plan B is putting her back into #4 when combined (#5 & 32) And also Kate must be around #11 combined, no? Thats great seeing as how badly it was doing last week when it was released :o

Thanks guys :D!

Hope its Naked tbh

Personally I would rather have seen Monster, SHICD or Speechless tbh.

Christina - #79. Hope it hits top 40 soon :D

Don't think it will be massive imo, more like a 09/10 hit and will have a similar chart run to Rock That Body.

Shes not, there is a rather big climb between 12 and 10. When it hits top 10 it should climb faster. Oh yeah, i'm team Kelis!

Yes, it was only in the 60s on Monday.
