Official Singles Chart Update on 8/1/2024

The charts are ruined. "Murder on the dancefloor" no.3? I know buying habits have changed but the algorithm needs to change to represent new music as it always has done.

I find it weird that journalists are saying that Liam Gallagher might get his first solo Number 1 when it is not a solo record. It is like saying Paul Simon got a solo Number 1 when he recorded with Art Garfunkel. It is an equal collaboration so not a solo record. Like Adam Lambert + Queen

My thoughts about the 2nd week of the 25th year of the century.

• Noah Kahan has about 5 days to live, given Ariana Grande's imminent arrival.
  
• Sophie Ellis-Bextor and her red lipstick (circa 2001) will end the world.
• The power of the 7-inch compels you. Still, I didn't expect Liam and John to do THIS well.
• Clearly I'm the only person here who dislikes Teddy Swims.
• Bring Me The Horizon are back, and by the looks of things, still ripping everybody's ears off.
• Sabrina Carpenter isn't going away in a hurry.
• Can The Weeknd just stop trying to clog the charts? 'Cause I don't get how Popular is, well, 'POPULAR' again.
• The Saltburn epidemic is still lingering.
• Did you want a man to rap over a Britney Spears instrumental in your charts? Tough.
• The Lewis Capaldi album tracks (thankfully) aren't up to much.
• Big things are expected now for Flo Milli. In other news, YET ANOTHER FEMALE RAPPER.
• I don't know why the BBC Sound of 2024 winners had to be so eclectic, but if it gets The Last Dinner Party into the charts, then so be it.
• D-Block Europe will never stop trying.
• Same with Potter Payper, but a loss less banal and monotonous.
• Does anyone have a clue how Natasha Bedingfield has stormed up the Spotify charts? Because I'm just lost.
• Cat Burns continues her quest to become a wasted promise, as shown by the performance of this Goddard collab.
• Li Tecca's here. Remember him? From Ransom? Yeah, me neither.
• Does anyone outside of the states want Something In The Orange back?

oh wait.

Anyways, see you on Ariana Granday. ;)

Good to see 'Murder On The Dancefloor' move into the Top 3.

This could seriously be a future #1 with the streaming momentum it has! 😊
