Before I sign off for the night, I’m gonna leave you guys with one of my favourite music videos right now. If I made a music video chart, this would be number 1! :)

Thanks a lot for hitting 1k for the second week here on OCC. To celebrate, here’s a 9/10 smash from KSI & Nathan Dawe:
https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=Di0nAk2_Tpw
🧡 oliviasnoodles 🍜
We got to 1k again?! :O
Cameron
1000!!!
⁉️
We hit 1000 comments again! Also my 1000th comment.
Cameron
Robbie Williams' best song
https://youtu.be/BnO3nijfYmU
Cameron
Saw a Facebook post which said to name a band for every letter of your first name so here's mine:
Coldplay
Aerosmith
Maroon 5
Electric Light Orchestra
Red Hot Chilli Peppers
Oasis
New Order
Cameron
One of the best duets
https://youtu.be/fKBiYBWRYDM
Cameron
Just noticed that Christmas Day is a Friday this year so the Christmas number one will be announced on Christmas Day
⁉️
That'll be interesting.
That means All I Want For Christmas For You dosen't have a much of a chance this year for the week after, seeing as it relies on Christmas and the lead up to it a lot, and most days of sales are past that.
Cameron
I really want All I Want For Christmas Is You to be number one, it has reached number two for the last three years in a row
⁉️
I'm pretty sure it would've been last year if it wasn't for ACR. I really want it to get there this year too, kinda surprised it hasn't yet.
Cameron
Yeah I have no idea how Ellie Goulding reached number one last year
⁉️
It was a massive controversy last year. Apparently the data was miscounted, over other songs.
There's also a theory that Amazon (it was an Amazon exclusive) payed the OCC to try and get it to Number 1.
I kind of believe it, it wasn't doing well midweek, and suddenly shot up. It wasn't even Number 1 on Amazon, nevermind the fact it wasn't anywhere else.
I'm pretty sure there were people who quit the site over it, which I don't really blame them for, regardless of which one it was.
Cameron
The song wasn't available on any streaming or download platforms which makes up most of the chart so it's strange that it managed to get to number one
⁉️
Yeah. I'm really not sure how it did it.
EDIT: My previous comment has been set to be approved. That's a little suspicious. D:
Héctor Palí Maldonado
what are The Killers doing in there!? I mean no problem cuz I love Mr Brightside so much but wtff? care to explain to a Mexican?
⁉️
I don't know either, it's just had insane longevity here for some reason.
Cameron
This song was number one when I was born
https://youtu.be/IobNcpiwpSc
Niall Cunniffe
According to Spotify, Dancing in the Moonlight was released in 2018. Why is it only charting now? Has it been re-released or suddenly gone viral or something?
https://open.spotify.com/track/5ow0sNF1zSqp71Ix5jEXWU?si=KpsCBwinQ764Crw7baiurw
⁉️
Yeah, it got popular on TikTok. Should've charted when it first came out, it's a great song.
Cameron
Shakira's best song
https://youtu.be/DUT5rEU6pqM
Cameron
Beyonce's best song and her and Jay-Z's first UK number one
https://youtu.be/ViwtNLUqkMY
⁉️
My favourite Beyonce song is either 6 Inch with The Weeknd or Brown Skin Girl with Saint JHN, but this song is pretty good.
Also, I thought Jay-Z would've had a few Number 1s by that point of this songs release, I could've sworn he did.
Cameron
Jay-Z has had four UK number ones and Crazy In Love was his first
⁉️
I meant I thought he had some before this, but I guess he didn't.
Worthy song for a first Number 1 though.
🧡 oliviasnoodles 🍜
Here’s the 900th comment! :)
Piran
Less than 100 to go now! ;)
⁉️
We're definitely hitting 1000 comments again this week! :O
We might even get it today, and I think we'll beat next week.
Piran
Do you think we’ll get more comments than we did on last week’s article?
I would be on here tonight, but I’ll probably be busy with the Hot 100 article, haha! :P
⁉️
Yeah, I think we will, we hit 900 on Tuesday last week ai think, and we have it on Monday this week.
I'll also be on the Hot 100 tonight, though I might be semi active.
Also, it's kinda weird seeing this place more active than Headline Planet, it used to feel double the size and now it feels the opposite way.
Piran
Yeah, it would be cool if we could do it a day earlier this week, but I'm just happy that we'll be reaching that milestone for a second consecutive week! :D
I'll wait to see how many people they are on it, but it's still usually fairly busy on a Monday night, even if the numbers aren't anything like they were a few weeks back like you said.
⁉️
Yeah, though I'm not complaining if we do it even on Thursday. I hope we can get there consistently.
As for Headline Planet, it usually has the same first day activity as here, but there's basically no one past Day 1.
It'll be even less active this week seeing as coolocelot won't be on tonight.
Piran
Yeah, unlike OCC, there seems to be a rapid drop in the number of comments the night after the article posts.
⁉️
I wonder why though, they're really similar communities.
J
Jstar
Amazing, keep up the good work everyone.
Piran
It could be because the chart movement is a bit more exciting in the UK, where #1's generally don't tend to last as long, there's a mix of genres in the charts (due to far less trap) & ACR tends to shake things up a bit more?
That might change with 'Folklore' coming next week though, because for as much as "album bombs" are a thing of the past in the UK, they're very much not in the US! ;)

Piran
I'll probably do it again in about a month. Until then, I'll stick with mainly individual ones! :)
⁉️
Cool, either are fine with me.
Piran
That's good! Glad you like the Emoji Challenges in general. :)

There's a bit at the bottom of the page that tells how to register the music for the chart I think.
gabriel ronzetti
FROM ITALY AND THE REST OF THE WORLD WE SEE SADLY HOW THE BRITISH CULTURE DIES DAILY ... IN THE INFLUENCE OF HIP HOP AND TRAP IN THE CHART, IT IS NOT REAL, THIS IS NOT JUST ... THE WORLD DANCED WITH THE POP AND DANCE BRITISH AND EUROPEAN ... WHAT HAPPENED TO US ??
gabriel ronzetti
THE DARK SIDE, THE ELLITE., PUT AGAIN A LOT OF MONEY IN THIS CHART !! IS A SHAME.... UK PEOPLE LET S GO, AGAIN FOR THE LIGHT THE DANCE THE POP................ THE NUMER ONE IS PERFECT........................ !!!!!!!!!!!!! THIS SONG HAD DESERVED TO BE NUMBER ONE
JoeNak
Yes! Head and Heart at #1 and Watermelon Sugar at #5! Rain on Me should be on ACR next week, and Rockstar in two weeks.
Cameron
The original Dido song which was sampled in one of Eminem's best songs - Stan
https://youtu.be/1TO48Cnl66w
⁉️
It works better in Stan in my opinion, kinda boring alone.
Cameron
Yeah it does work better in Stan. I like how Eminem took a happy and calm song and used it for a song about an obsessive psycho and it still works.
⁉️
Yeah, it's weird how well the sample works.
Rector
Fun facts:
- Head & Heart is the 20th #1 hit to mention the word 'heart' in the title, the first since Rixton's Me And My Broken Heart back in 2014.
- Selling 61.4K, Savage Love claims the highest sale for a #2 single in almost four months.
- Fewer than 700 sales separate the #6 and #10 albums.

Invisible String by TS?

Invidible strung
Piran
Yes! :D
Piran
Dami's got it now... it was 'Invisible String' by Taylor Swift! ;)
Piran
Correct, but Dami just beat you to it! ;)
Damián
hahah..yessssss
Piran
Oh, I heard 'Say Something' for the first time today... it's good! Hopefully it can make the Top 40. :)
I would put it in my personal chart, but Taylor's album bomb will probably stop that, haha!
Damián
Wowwwwww! Thanks Piran!! So glad you liked it!! I really do hope it breaks the top 40! I know it's kinda difficult for artists such as Kylie who isn't so popular on streaming or you tube views as the young ones. But I hope it does!! Is having rotation on UK radio's??
Piran
You're welcome! It's doing very well on iTunes over here, where I saw it peak inside the Top 5.
I don't think it'll get a lot in the way of YouTube sadly due to her age & I've only heard it once on Capital FM over here, but then again, it's only been out for three days so far!
Damián
Yes I understand! She's such a legend and deserves to have another top 40 hit as in her golden times. I remember that a Kylie new single was such an event back in the day. Let's see what happens mate! Thanks for the message!!
Piran
You're welcome! :)
I hope you had a nice weekend.

It really does improve the song. Original would be a light 5/10, while the Joel Corry remix is a strong 8/10 from me.

'Sandstorm', it was a massive dance hit across Europe! :)

I know lol, that song though use to be such a meme, whenever people would ask for a song they would say it was Darude Sandstorm. But I did the opposite haha.
Back to December is my 3rd favorite Taylor song though.

You listened to it already, I am shocked 😉.
Glad you could be treated to such an amazing surprise this Friday.

Have you heard it yet?
J
Jstar
I will try to listen to it later or tomorrow. I am waiting for a package so I can't have music playing right now unfortunately until it arrives.
Piran
Fair enough. I think you'll be impressed with it! ;)
It's a indie-folk album, haha.

same :( she's only had 1 uk no 1?
Piran
Shame it had to be with one of her worst singles to date, but hey, at least it finally gave her a long overdue #1! :)
Cameron
Neither did I
new acc - disqus.com/afrog69
I wouldve thought shed have got more. she has on bigtop40 tho
Rector
She has so many songs better than this that deserved to be #1!
Piran
Yeah, I know 'Gorgeous' was definitely a #1 there! :)
I think either 'Call It What You Want' or 'You Need To Calm Down' was her third.
new acc - disqus.com/afrog69
ME! went to bt40 no1
Cameron
Love Story, I Knew You Were Trouble, and Shake It Off all reached number 2 as well
Piran
Oh yeah, of course it did! :P
Piran
'Love Story' is my all-time favourite song! It really was robbed of hitting #1.
Cameron
It was beaten to number one by Kelly Clarkson - My Life Would Without You which is Kelly Clarkson's only UK number one
new acc - disqus.com/afrog69
I had no idea who TSwift was then. It was either Now music or BT40 that introduced me to her and that would be Gangnam Style era
Piran
Ah, well that's still an awesome song (I was listening to it a couple of days ago), but it's nothing compared to 'Love Story', haha! :P
Piran
I've been listening to her on repeat since her self-titled debut album, haha! :D
Cameron
Also just checked that I Knew You Were Trouble was beaten to number one by will.I.am & Britney Spears - Scream & Shout, and Shake It Off was held off number one by Meghan Trainor - All About That Bass
Piran
'Shake It Off' not going to #1 is still the biggest shock for me! :O
⁉️
Too bad it's one of her worst songs. I wish her long deserved Number 1 was one that people actually liked.
I mean it's better than her never getting one, but still.
At least it wasn't Ready For It or You Need To Calm Down, two 0/10 songs.
Piran

Marcothedonjuan
Exile is one of the most beautiful and sad break up songs I have ever heard. Excellent. Feels real. 👏

Only heard the Bon Iver track so far, but if it's anything like that, it's going to be amazing. :)

Glad you love 'Exile', as that's still my favourite track so far! :D
Let me know when you get a chance to hear some of the others.

I'll have to wait a few days as my laptop isn't working right now, and I want to the rest as a full album (I'm a Spotify user)
Kinda annoyed about that, it was supposed to be ready this time last week. >:(

That's annoying! Can you not listen to the YouTube audios through your phone then?

I could, but I prefer using Spotify because I like archiving everything I listen to on last.fm, which I can't do on YouTube mobile.

Ah, fair enough. Trust me, it'll be worth the wait! ;)

9. SAINt JHN - Roses (Imanbek Remix) (-3), HP1x8
10. StaySolidRocky - Party Girl (+5), HP10
Reece Allen
Here's one of my favourite new releases from today - it would be great to see MK in the charts again
new acc - disqus.com/afrog69
Have u heard Nathan Dawe's new track?
Reece Allen
Yes! That's another one I've been listening to a lot today - what were your thoughts bevaue I'm liking it a lot personally, although its not as catchy as Flowers
new acc - disqus.com/afrog69
No I can't remember it and I had it on repeat all morning! still, good track :) I think it'll climb quicker to no 1 in my chart than 'Flowers' did. SAINt JHN was miles ahead of it, but Joel Corry is narrowly beating it currently
Reece Allen
Absolutely agree here, there's a lot of potential here for it to become a late summer hit!
Reece Allen
Here I am commenting on the EDM music in the charts and the first thing to point out obviously is that Head & Heart has beaten Savage Love to the coveted #1 spot meaning that it's both Joel Corry and MNEK's first number one in their careers - and a well deserved one too! It also feels like the first EDM song to top the charts in a while!
Topic & A75's Breaking Me has dropped from #5 to #20 so its fair to assume that it' ACR. However, its great to see Heaven On My Mind rising to #23, although I'm unsure on whether it will do as well as Wish You Well, which reached #8.
Also, Fake Friends has risen to #31 which is fantastic news, especially as it spent so long bubbling under the top 40 - I'm hoping that this one can reach the same successes as Breaking Me and Don't Need Love. Speaking of which, the latter song has completely dropped out of the top 40 :(
Finally at #40, Kygo & Tina Turner debut with their latest single - I've had this one in repeat so much so I'm really hoping that it can have the same success as Higher Love!
Outside the Top 40, my favourite song right now Looking For Me rises from #74 to #61, so I'll keep praying for this one to do extremely well as it seems to have worked so far - keep streaming this one!
Finally, Calvin Harris also comes in at #83 with Live Without Your Love under his alias Love Regenerator - its a good song and I'm really liking Calvin's new direction, so I'm hoping that this one gains some traction over the coming weeks!
new acc - disqus.com/afrog69
Breaking Me hasn't had a huge ACR drop compared to others, probably because it's not leading on streaming. According to Rector we only have Rain On Me on ACR next week... Fake Friends, Dancing In The Moonlight, ily, WHATS POPPIN & Looking For Me rising is awesome!!!!!!!!
Reece Allen
That's definitely worth noting, especially when it's compared to Don't Need Love. Honestly I'm so happy to see Looking For Me rising, Paul Woolford is incredible and its about time he had some recognition!
new acc - disqus.com/afrog69
Yeah! If it goes top 40, I'll be a happy man, if it goes top 10 I'll be EXSTATIC!
Joshua Sombra
I don't think there should have been another No.1 this week.
🧡 oliviasnoodles 🍜
But Head & Heart is much better than Savage Noise...
Piran
What music do you like then?
I'm just curious because most of the reviews I've seen from you on the #1's are negative.

Only Rain on Me is going to ACR next week!
Rockstar, Don't Rush, I Dunno and the two Frozen 2 songs are declining for the second week.

wow. a week ACR doesn't have much affect, but I think the comments will be a riot zone next week. out of interest, how do u know this?

Nothing much to say yet.

I expected Whats Love Got To Do With It to debut higher, but it’ll be a slow burner anyway.

I like it, but it's not my favourite single by any means. I like Kygo's new singles, but only for a bit and then they become a bit boring.

I watched some American news reporting his death today. I wish I hadn't.

Does anyone else think DJ Khaled is terrible

nah but the songs are
🧡 oliviasnoodles 🍜
I like him personally.
Cameron
I just don't think his songs are very good and it's annoying when he screams his name at the beginning of every song
⁉️
His albums as a whole, yes, but he's had some great songs.
Cameron
I'd say I'm The One was his best song but it still isn't great
🧡 oliviasnoodles 🍜
At least when he’s on the radio, he yells his name so you know when to switch to another station haha.
Cameron
Good point haha

HEAD & HEART NUMBER 1!!!!!!! Get in!
Joshua Sombra
I didn't want "Head & Heart" to be on No.1 because let's just it does not even sound like a No.1 hit and tbh he does not deserve it. This is my opinion.
R
Riley
Why don’t he deserve it?
Joshua Sombra
Tbh I am not really a fan of this song. I am sorry to all the lovers of this song.
Joshua Sombra
I have only heard this song fully once. Maybe I need more time with this song because after a few more plays of "Head & Heart" I think I will like it. So I need more time with this song.
R
Riley
I respect that but I don’t think that means he don’t deserve number 1?

I’m a bit pushed for time to do a full review today, so instead, here’s a Traffic Light System for this week’s Top 40…
🔴 (Negative):
1) The two new DJ Khaled songs are the two highest debuts of the week! His production is incredibly basic on both tracks, but my concern with Drake, who sounds absolutely terrible due to his whiny delivery.
2) ‘On Deck’ isn’t that good either sadly! My issue isn’t really with Abra Cadabra flow, but the deep & swampy production drowns out anything he says. Seriously, all I could understand from him was “jiggy-jiggy”!
3) Joy Division completely missed the Top 40! Not surprised though, given that a majority of their sales came from vinyl. Still would’ve been cool seeing them here though!
4) ‘Don’t Need Love’ hit ACR, causing it to crash out of the Top 40 completely!
5) ‘This City’ didn’t do anywhere near as well as either update was indicating! Oh well, at least it didn’t fall back.
🟠 (Mixed)
1) ‘Savage Love’ falls from the top spot! Honestly, while I predicted a while back that this would be the Song Of The Summer, I actually hope I’m proven wrong! I still like it more than most regulars here, but it’s one of those hits that’s getting old fast thanks to extreme overplay.
2) ‘Watermelon Sugar’ rises to a new peak of #5. It’s still not bad by any means, but I can’t escape it, haha!
3) ‘Who’s That What’s That’ is back in the Top 40! The hype has kind of faded for me, but hey, congratulations to Niko B for getting his debut song onto NOW! 106.
4) ‘Dior’ also comes back! The song has grown on me a little & I appreciate how hard Pop Smoke goes in this, but that bubbly bass beat has still not been able to win me over.
5) Drake did at least redeem himself this week with his feature on ‘Only You Freestyle’ alongside Headie One! Looking at the huge streaming numbers, I wouldn’t rule out a climb to #1 for this next week (although a midweek release might hold it back).
6) ‘Breaking Me’ is on ACR! It actually dropped less than expected & while it’s cool that the song became massive across Europe, it’s time to move on from it now.
7) ‘Blinding Lights’ has dropped back a bit from where it was a few days ago. I can’t really complain too much though, given it’s longevity!
8) Woah… where did ‘Go Crazy’ come from?! I like Chris Brown’s part, but Young Thug’s is just okay.
🟢 (Positive):
1) Obviously the best news of the week is that Joel Corry & MNEK are #1!!! I generally think the quality of the chart-toppers in 2020 are okay, but this one is head & shoulders above them all… or should I say “Head & Heart” above them all, haha.
2) ‘Rain On Me’ is still sticking around in the Top 5!!!
3) AJ Tracey has two songs in the Top 10 (‘West Ten’ & ‘Dinner Guest’) for another week!
4) ‘Heaven On My Mind’ keeps moving up! I think it’s going to be a future Top 20 hit, probably either next week or the following one.
5) ‘Fake Friends’ climbed nine places almost into the Top 30! Honestly, if clubs were open right now, this song would be played everywhere. Let’s keep the momentum for it going!
6) ‘What’s Love Got To Do With It’ just sneaks into the Top 40! Obviously, it doesn’t top the original, but Kygo has proved for a second time that he can effectively remake 80’s disco classics.
7) Not related to the singles chart as such, but Ellie Goulding is back with a #1 album with ‘Brighter Blue’. It’s her first studio album in five years & I really wish she got some successful tracks from it!
8) Speaking of albums, Taylor Swift has gone indie-folk on us & I’m all for it! I’ll post my ratings of each track on the album in a few minutes.

You should keep a traffic light system! Drake is AWFUL on the new songs. Haven't heard the new Freestyle yet. 'Don't Need Love' is crushing to see go ACR. Hope Nathan Dawe goes top 40 with his new single next week! Niko B is overjoyed to be on Now 106, and I'm glad to have him back in the top 40. Plus... PRETTY MUCH EVERY EDM SINGLE CLIMBS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Piran
I actually liked this new format, so I'm glad you do too! :)
Yeah, it was a really amazing week for EDM.

Hi Piran
Wat a week for Lewis Capaldi Someone You Loved now holds the chart record for the most consecutive weeks in the top 75 beating George Ezras record he held with Shotgun of 80 weeks
Lewis is on 81 wow can he make 100
I hope so i bet he doesnt know he holds this magic record.
Piran
It's interesting that you mention that Mark! Lewis' & George's longevity in the Top 100 will probably continue for a few more months yet, as even ACR hasn't allowed them to drop out of the chart. :)
Damián
so glad about the new format Piran!! i loved it, so simple to read divided into the bads, the goods and the middles..I agree on every word you say. Its annoying how those Dj Khaled´s singles debuted so high and the ones from Dua LIpa and Anne Marie ft Doja Cat so low

FROM ITALY AND THE REST OF THE WORLD WE SEE SADLY HOW THE BRITISH CULTURE DIES DAILY ... IN THE INFLUENCE OF HIP HOP AND TRAP IN THE CHART, IT IS NOT REAL, THIS IS NOT JUST ... THE WORLD DANCED WITH THE POP AND DANCE BRITISH AND EUROPEAN ... WHAT HAPPENED TO US ???
⁉️
I love the new format, it works so well.

Always a pleasure to read your comments on the chart. A great new Number 1 which is dance inspired but to be honest the U.K. singles chart now is basically a Rap and RnB chart made up of solo artists. Where are the groups? Will any of these songs be remembered in 5 years time?
Gerry Adams is a modern day pr
Dj khaled isn't actually a dj. He doesn't make the songs, he just organises them

Jack Brooks
Fake Friends is great, hope it rises further up the charts.
new acc - disqus.com/afrog69
amazing year for EDM!
Piran
Yeah, it's definitely making a comeback! :D
'Head & Heart' is the first original EDM song to reach #1 since October 2018, when 'Promises' by Calvin Harris & Sam Smith was at the top of the singles chart.
Piran
I love it too! :D
I've been listening to it a lot today actually, haha.
JB
Jack Brooks
I've been listening to it a lot recently too, maybe too much aha. Don't think i've been this taken with a new "club hit" since Piece Of My Heart last year.
Piran
'Head & Heart' is actually my favourite EDM song at the moment! So happy it's #1, haha. :)
Piran
I know he's not literally a DJ despite the name, but does he not produce the songs either?
Piran
Thanks Graham! :)
Yeah, there's so much urban music in the charts at the moment, but at least we finally got an original EDM song at #1 for the first time since October 2018! That's at least looking promising.
I think 'Blinding Lights' & 'Don't Start Now' will definitely be remembered in 2025, but yeah, not many other hits from this year will!
Piran
Thanks! I've decided that I'll stick with it. :)
Cameron
No more Savage Love please
⁉️
I wish it never became big in the first place.
Piran
WE DID IT LADS!!! :D
