Not really too much to say so far this week, but I love 'Senorita' is set to remain at #1 & 'Higher Love' could be a Top 3 hit by the end of the week! :)

It seems like both 'I Don't Care' & 'Bad Guy' will be placed on ACR again.

Hi piran!
The chart so far is looking really good. I like how higher love and 3 Nights are looking at going into the top 5 for the first time. It was only going to be a matter of time as higher love peaked at 2 in downloads. Senorita still at number 1! It deserves its reign and doesn't look like there will be much competition. Listened to aitchs new song and unfortunately am not a fan. Strike a pose is a good single but taste (make it shake) has something off about it. I'm a massive fan of aris new single boyfriend. I was expecting it to go at least the top 3 so I'm kind of disappointed at the fact it could fall this week. I'm also sad to see bad guy go on acr but it only went back in the top 5 because of the jb remix. Lastly, you've said you've been a fan of Taylor swift since the start. I'm also a big fan of her music but she's not my favourite artist. What's your favourite taylor song? Mine is either 'trouble' or 'style'

Hey Tony! How you doing? :)

'Higher Love' actually reached #1 on the sales & downloads chart this week, meaning it becomes Kygo's first ever Top 5 hit & Whitney's fourteenth! While I'm happy for the former as he's one of my favourite DJs right now, I did think the latter would have way more Top 5s than 14 (but that's still impressive!).

'Taste [Make It Shake]' is indeed underwhelming, but it looks like it could contend for #1 in the coming weeks. I'd much rather '3 Nights' got there instead, but ideally, 'Senorita' gets as many weeks at the top as possible, since it's still such an incredible song. :D

'Boyfriend' got old for me really quick unfortunately & I'd still rate it no higher than a 6/10. I feel like it's not going to stick around for very long.

There's so many Taylor Swift songs that I love! My absolute favourites so far would be: 'Love Story' (actually my favourite song of all-time!), 'Should've Say No', 'White Horse', 'You Belong With Me', 'Fifteen', 'The Best Day', 'Change', 'Begin Again', 'I Knew You Were Trouble', 'Style', 'Wildest Dreams', 'Getaway Car', 'Dancing With Our Hands Tied' & 'The Archer'. They're just the standouts that would get a 9/10 or a 10/10 rating from me, haha! ;)
