The non Xmas songs ranked week 1

1) Anti Hero - need I say, shame lavender Haze fell as bad as it did
2) Made You Look - Meghan’s comeback tho
3) Hide and Seek - awwwww
4) Escapism - I don’t want you is way better but I like it
5) Messy In Heaven - cool!
6) Calm Down - grown on me
7) Rich Flex - Mid but drake is on and off with me
8) Out Of Nowhere - mid
9) Another Love - TikTok if you want to bring back a song from 2012, make it Taylor Swift’s I knew you were trouble (Taylor’s version) or literally any song off red (Taylor’s version)
10) Psycho - red velvet’s slayed more and that’s why it just reached my top 10 lol
11) Unholy - annoying and overplayed at this rate
12) Miss You - scooter Braun who? I only know these music stealers
?) Pointless - ain’t heard it yet
?) Creepin’ - ain’t heard it yet

Analysis: RIP Lavender Haze, Lionheart and Lift Me Up

Omg Santa Tell Me at #13? Will probably be lower by the end of the week however I'm glad to see that it will most likely hit a new peak this year! Raye will defo pass Taylor by Friday tho, as she should. I mean last week in this update she was #15, but then finished at #6, so she will be without a doubt in the top 5 this week. She has a real shot at #1 in the new year tbf. Also idk how fire babe is that far up.

I feel like Hide and Seek is not going to drop as bad as it suggests on the midweek charts. It will probably drop 8 places instead of 18 dreadful places. I believe this is all amazon streams and therefore the widweek chart is not accurate.

mkay there’s like 14 non-christmas songs and december has just begun. bets on the whole top 40 being covered in snow on the nye chart? anyways…

step into christmas: a lot of fun to listen to
it’s the most wonderful time of the year: this song is alright i guess. the sprite cranberry version tho, is one of the greatest songs of all time
i wish it could be christmas everyday: don’t get me started on this absolute mouthful 💀
wonderful christmastime: an absolute bizarre and odd song, i don’t know if i love it or hate it. it’s so weird
one more sleep: a modern pop classic! this deserves to be as big as it is
let it snow: pleasant enough
holly jolly christmas: the spawn of satan, just like anything else by this man
merry xmas everybody: i used to hate this song but it’s grown on me a lot
sleigh ride: another fun track
feliz navidad: annoyingly repetitive but very catchy
happy xmas (war is over): it’s decent but nothing special.
snowman: i hate sia’s music but i can’t get enough of this for some reason lol

happy december everyone!

holly jolly christmas: much worse than his other song, but still not too intolerable
merry xmas everybody: the worst christmas song i actually like omg slay
sleigh ride: nah
feliz navidad: the best christmas song omg what a slay

Amazon and it’s fraud oml

C

Conor

tbh its not fraud, its just the others didn't submit their data soon enough! spotify took ages to refresh tho so by friday all the data will be there and it'll be much more accurate

avatar

rayever

1

Escapism. should be above Anti-Hero, it’s been above for THREE DAYS with the original alone, and combined with the sped up it’s been ahead for about a week! This is bs OCC and you know it! Shame on you for letting an independent artist down

C

Conor

1

tbh its not exactly the occ's fault if they don't recieve the data in time

avatar

rayever

I’m not talking about Amazon, Anti-Hero shouldn’t be ahead of Escapism.

avatar

rayever

Escapism. is ahead of Anti-Hero on the 2 big streaming services and yet somehow the latter is still ahead which is total bs

avatar

Piran

1

Exactly! Besides, it’s still early days, so a lot of things can (& probably will) change before the final chart, haha. :)

avatar

rayever

again I wasn’t talking about Amazon here

C

Conor

1

no i get you, but from the data they've recieved (amazon mainly) anti-hero is ahead - once the data from everywhere else is included it will be more accurate and raye will almost certainly be ahead! this is the first update, theres plenty of time and it'll be sorted by the final chart! :)

avatar

Piran

2

I don’t get this, I never said anything about Amazon?

Besides, Christmas songs have historically been known to chart higher in midweek updates than in the final chart!

I’m like 95% sure RAYE will be in the Top 5 by Friday & therefore reach a new peak. :)

avatar

rayever

0

you were agreeing with the comment which was talking about Amazon… under a comment unrelated to amazon

avatar

Piran

1

My main point is that ‘Escapism’ will be higher by Friday, even taking Christmas completely out of the equation!

‘Escapism’ overtook ‘Anti-Hero’ on streaming & is starting to take off on sales (but this update includes data before the latter) & I can’t find any reason as to why ‘Firebabe’ is still climbing like it is. 🤔

avatar

⁉️

0

there’s more to the charts than just the spotify charts lol. also with the amount of versions of anti-hero, it’s possible that raye doesn’t even lead there (#200 has about 65k, so each of taylors remix could potentially be doing that)

also why are you getting so mad over the chart? 😭

stfu I don’t need your bs rn

hun were trying to explain it to you, just cos your (and currently mine too) fave isn't where youd like her to be doesn;t mean you can be annoyed at us. maybe put the device down, go for a walk and come back when your not so pressed

you’re acting like I know nothing about the chart 💀 I wasn’t just talking about Spotify either if you’d be bothered to READ

C

Conor

1

simply, raye is at #6 due to the data coming mainly from amazon where escapism isnt doing as well as on spotify or apple. by the end of the week, all the data will be included and she'll almost ceretainly be higher, remember this is an UPDATE not an official chart

C

Conor

ok but your getting unnecessarily annoyed at others who are making the same point

why are you even starting on me 💀💀 mate I’ve never done anything to you, sorry didn’t know I’m not allowed to be annoyed anymore 🥺🥺

I said it a few times and then moved on, which is what you should do.

I would be over this if you didn’t keep on at me but clearly you want to start on me for no reason so 🤷‍♀️

considering as you’re shaming me for being annoyed, it can pretty much be inferred

also the fact you’re being all nice to donda shows me that you’re not worth my time 😭😭 one day you’ll learn to not be stan Twitter in a nutshell I believe in you

Still not over the fact that it missed the Top 40 last year!

yes psycho could've been such a smash if it had some more support!!! deserved top 10 for sure!

, RAYE down from yesterday. :/

C

Conor

this update is very amazon data heavy, as spotify took ages to refresh so i'm assuming theres lots of missing data

avatar

rayever

ngl I think this update is total bs

C

Conor

theres loaaaaaads of missing data from it so its not v accurate!

Piran

It seems odd, like a Christmas Top 3 isn’t that surprising, but ‘Firebabe’ as the biggest non-festive hit? How? 🤔

avatar

Piran

1

Most Christmas songs often fall back by Friday, so I guess we’ll have to wait & see. 🤔

it’s total bs

amazon orchestral version of it on their xmas original playlist

Firebabe is a Xmas song but not a traditional one

They seem to have exploded on spotify now, looking like a very festive year or perhaps thr ACR is removed for loads of them?

No, they didn’t get reset. It’s just shaping up to be an incredibly festive year! 😳
