Official Singles Chart Update on 10/12/2018

So while "Bad" was okay, as I saw the Kanye West feature, I was interested in hearing it. Kanye did good in the first verse, but X just screamed in the second one, ruining it. If only for Kanye it would've been a 8/10 but now it's only 4/10 for me. Haven't heard others than "Bad" & "One Minute" so can't say more

I personally didn't like 'Bad!'. In fact, I gave it a 3/10 when I reviewed it in the week that it first charted.
'One Minute' doesn't sound promising, but I'm not surprised that XXXTENTACION managed to chart all three songs inside the Top 40 of this midweek update.

I liked "Bad" a bit more, it might even hit #10 in my Top 10 songs of the week. Even though I know it's nothing spectacular and won't remember it for long.

Yeah wasn't surprising, people stream him like crazy. My opinion of him is quite neutral. I know of the controversies that he was in and don't respect him for them, however he has a few songs I somehow like; "Changes" even was #33 in my Top 50 songs of the year, "Jocelyn Flores", "Sad" and "Falling Down" would've propably been in my Top 100 had I gone that far.

I think he was a troublesome human being, but at least unlike most criminals, he did have the intention of changing for the better. Either way, him being murdered is still sad news!
'Changes' is probably my favourite song of his, but that was only okay. 'Falling Down' isn't too bad either I guess. I don't really care for any of his other songs.

Is crazy but I do wonder where these old xmas songs would be without acr? Would mariah be no.1 every year? If it was would we all actually get bored of it every year? Any song on its way down from no.1 has a huge drop when acr hits, would be interesting to see how xmas songs from previous years are actually doing.

Did ACR affect last year's chart too? If so, it's highly possible that she could've beaten 'Perfect' to Christmas #1 one of these days (although WHAM! would've had a better chance in 2016 & 2017).
I'm still convinced #1 for 'All I Want For Christmas Is You' for #1 is coming soon, if not this year!

Yes acr was in place last year. Is crazy as the 3 highest charting returning songs each year all maxed out at no.2 and have never reached no.1. That's mariah, wham and the pogues with kirsty McCall. Wonder if any new tracks will become as popular over time too as Leona track seems to do well each year and Chris rea's driving home for xmas seems to reach a new peak each year and this year brenda lee seems to be having one of the best years she's had for a while and still more time to go yet!
