Official Singles Chart on 11/9/2020

Aaay joint 2nd!

Yeah, it came down to time in the end, but there were literally seconds between you & Unverification! :P

Thanks a lot for doing this!

Glad to see it’s mostly positive points here.

I’ll send a longer reply regarding this later & maybe even do the same for your new chart! :)

thanks for the reply. :)

yeah, your chart was a good one. something tells me head & heart might not get another week for you though.

can’t wait for your traffic light review on mine if you have the time! :)

Honestly, I'm struggling to look at screens for very long with my headache at the moment, but I'll take a look tonight if it improves, or tomorrow if it doesn't. :)

It's still close enough for everything to change on my chart, but yeah, 'Looking For Me' is looking likely to become the new #1 on Thursday!

Replying to each point...

🔴 (Negative)

1) I could see this going up for the next couple of weeks, due to Ava's new album being released this coming Friday.

2) 'Exile' shouldn't fall as far on the next chart, but my love for EDM just outshined my love for 'Folklore' this week apparently.

3) 'Dancing In The Moonlight' lost a lot of radio airplay everywhere this week, so that caused me to listen to it less too!

🟠 (Mixed)

1) Only Megan's verses are keeping it afloat this week, along with the clean edit picking up a lot of radio support now, but it probably won't last any longer!

2) A lot of foreign language songs tend to do this for me! They'll stay on repeat for a few days, then they'll end up just getting mostly forgotten. The trend didn't change this with song among the Dutch ones!

🟢 (Positive)

1) It probably won't spend any more weeks at #1, but at least you got to see this song become my longest EDM leader of all-time!

2) Both of these are going to climb next week, even if topping the charts is a bit beyond reach for either of them.

3) I don't know what happened this week, but I'm obsessed with it now! It's looking like it'll go all the way next time.

4) 'You Broke Me First' being the biggest climber of the week shows you how much I've really warmed to it! The same is happening to 'Midnight Sky' at the moment & 'Greece' to a less extent. While I don't really like TikTok as an app, a remix of 'Love Story' is getting popular on it, hence the big move up my charts!

5) The song as a whole is decent, but that final minute is so relaxing! I needed that this week, hence why it's back.

see you on discord (if you’re available then)! ;)

I should be on there tonight (if Taylor will let me!). ;)

billie says bye... ;)

... both Juice WRLD songs are leaving the Top 40 next week then! :(

No, we can't lose 'Fake Friends' now! :/

Right, left, drip, cono! I actually liked this one from Jason Derulo, haha. :)

mood swings is going in a few weeks time?! 😭

mood swings going is even worse... 😭

At least Pop Smoke got a Top 5 hit, but yeah, that too! :(

What about ta ta ta ta ta ta? That one's great too :P

No, that one ! :P

no it isn’t lol.

😭

Maybe it needs time to grow on you 😂

No not Fake Friends!

ikr :(

Such a banger that slowed down...

boooooo...

ah well, acr will never change that legends never die is absolutely amazing.

I don't think it will grow on me! :P

Yeah, thankfully, this is the only chart that ACR really affects! :P

Thanks for writing coÑo as it might be, not with the N

Urgh... it's playing on Capital FM now! :(

Agree :)

dermot is very underrated indeed! :)

So happy you came back posting Thierry!

Great chart :) love the top 5!

Thank you! :)

i’ll make a traffic light review for your chart in a bit. ;)

I thought you did a really good job with it! :D

I'll respond to your thoughts on it more detail a bit later.

Great chart :)

Awesome chart! ;)

I love the songs at the top & the bottom of it in particular! ;)

thanks! yeah, the lakes is great, i can see it climbing up the charts with time. :)

thanks :)

A much better album closer than 'Hoax' was. :)

As promised, here is my "traffic light review" for your chart...

🔴 (Negative)

1) 'Ain't It Different' dropped out of the Top 10. I'm actually starting to get into it a lot recently, especially with those awesome reactions videos!

🟠 (Mixed)

1) 'Easy Life' debuted in the Top 10! Unfortunately, being a fan of recent indie-pop hits in this lane, this one was slightly underwhelming.

2) 'Heather' grew on you enough to actually make a debut! I don't think it'll do the same for me, but I get why people like it.

3) I'm happy that 'Nobody's Love' is dropping fast, but I'm disappointed that's it is still here... or how it even got here in the first place!

🟢 (Positive)

1) 'You Broke Me First' spends a second week at #1!

2) 'Mood' takes another boost to land inside the Top 5.

3) 'Exile' got a small rebound! It's now higher in your charts than mine for the first time.

4) 'Holiday' made a debut, which is a really pleasant surprise, given how much you usually don't like Little Mix!

5) There's more good news for Taylor Swift, as 'Invisible String' rebounds slightly & 'The Lakes' sneaks in a debut.

thanks for the feedback! i’m glad there’s mostly positive points, it’s more than mixed and negative combined! :P

regarding number 4 on positives, yeah i’ve just got into it a lot, it’s very summery! and that’s coming from someone who doesn’t like little mix. i’m not sure where aint it different will land on thursday though.

Yeah, I'm really pleased that more than half the points were positive! That's partly because of the amazing week that Taylor had, haha. :)

mines either “sad (imanbek remix)” or “nightmares”.

Mine is At Least I Had Fun scoobydoobydoooo

I haven't heard either yet! :P

Check out the Sad remix!

'At Least I Had Fun' would've been mine if I did this last week! ;)

I heard the Afrojack remix (which I liked), so I have high expectations for the Imanbek remix! ;)

sad is an edm/club remix of that lame xxxtentacion song, remixed by imanbek.

nightmares is a weird indie-ish song by a group called easy life. i first heard it a while back but it picked up on itunes for a moment.

i can link both songs if you want? :)

Yeah, please do! :)

here you go:

I timed getting to this perfectly, as 'Take You Dancing' just came on the radio when I reached this reply! :P

The 'Sad' remix is definitely better than the original, but I feel like Imanbek just used the same beat from 'Roses' to be honest.

'Nightmares' though... I'm not sure! It sounds like the kind of song Radio 1 might be play with its indie feel, but it's just probably not going to stick with me unfortunately! :/

We'll see if either one of them can grow on me though.

Thanks for sending me these! :)

Guess I'm not going to be "blinded by the lights" after all then! :P

In the words of DaBaby "lets go"

Haha, we won't be f**king any cop cars though! ;)

SONG 1: “There was a time, I met a girl of a different kind.”

SONG 2: “No damsel in distress, don’t need to save me.”

SONG 3: “Tryna make a difference, tryna make you stay.”

SONG 4: “Excuse me, but I might drink a little more than I should tonight.”

SONG 5: “I’m coming out of my cage & I’ve been doing just fine.”

SONG 6: “Marry me Juliet, you’ll never have to be alone.”

SONG 7: “Ding dong, call me on my phone, iced tea & a game of ping pong.”

SONG 8: “When your legs don’t work like they used to before & I can’t sweep you off of your feet.”

[MusicLover got it first, but his comment somehow got deleted!]

SONG 9: “Here's the thing, we started out friends, it was cool but it was all pretend.”

SONG 10: “Our hearts were ringing, in the key that our souls were singing.”

Mr Brightside?

Dynamite?

Hey Unverification! You're right. :)

Love story?

Correct again! :)

Thinking Out Loud?

My current favourite song apart from WAP lol.

Wooooah not WAP lol i had to spend 2hrs today listening to someone sing that

Correct again! ;)

give me everything?

Thanks!

MusicLover's comment got deleted by OCC, but he got it first! :P

How come?

You're doing well so far! :)

That's right! ;)

I don't know, but when I tried to reply, it said; "You cannot reply to a post that is not active." :/

I might not be a huge fan of 'Wap', but I'm so glad that you love 'Dynamite' too! :D

Since U Been Gone

I think it was guessed by someone else beforehand, but you're correct! :D

How did you spend two whole hours listening to the exact same song?! :O

No I had 2 hours of art and for the whole lesson this girl (who coincidentally takes drugs) kept singing the same verse of WAP and even asked me if i knew what it meant 😂🙄

Oh, fair enough, haha! :P

Forget 'WAP'... I just feeling sorry for you for having to do two whole hours of art! :P

Haha I love art (comic art and animation) but the lesson was awful and I have to sit in front of the new teacher and on my table are Two people who I dislike! 😫

Yeah, the biggest issue with school is that you didn't have any say in who you were sat next to! :P

I do in my form tho :D but one of my friends said you have covid if you randomly coughed and then he randomly coughed! Continuously! :O

Did he test positive? If so, that's very ominous! :O

i have no clue i don't think he took a test!

He should if his symptoms are still continuing! :O

I know a lot of schools are actually sending children home if they start coughing continuously.

No offence to him but he's in bottom set for everything and he didnt take any subject for GCSE that i do so im not in any classes w him so i haven't really seen him much but he usually coughs once in the morning and once at lunch 😬

He could just have a cold, but still, you really should be getting a test if you're coughing that much. :/

still number 1, still awesome.

Ew! :/

Sigh

Is it tho? I Had to sit for 2 hrs next to someone singing "wet a** p****" over and over

Loved Fix You, it's more than a song,it's an stadium hymn! I really like you by CRJ was a great pop song!. Don't you worry child is one of the best EDM has ever recorded! I'll always love it and Best of you is absolutely amazing, it has an extra energy that turns you wild!!haha. Great list this week!!!

“Loved Fix You, it's more than a song,it's an stadium hymn!”

yeah, it’s really good. coldplay are actually my favourite group of all time and that song is one of their best! :D

Absolutely agree Coolo!!! One of my fave groups too mate!

Thanks for the comment Dami! :)

Yeah, I haven't gone too far back this time (with the oldest song being from 2005), but the years that I would follow still brought us some absolute classics.

Me too! :P

It felt like xmas the other day lol

I anticipate it all year round. 😂

yeah it’s such a fun holiday haha.

You're like supermarkets in my country that start decorating like Christmas on October...😢😢haha

i haven’t decorated the house haha! i’m just really looking forward to it, it’s my favourite holiday. :P

Yeahh, I was just joking on the idea! It's my fave holiday too, hope we have the covid vacuum for Xmas!!

I too am sad about Tap In especially since it got a remix. The way she says Tap In is so satisfying for some reason... Lemonade came out of nowhere lol but that song is a banger and makes up for Tap In! It deserves top 10!

"This is the definition of ear r@pe and is already in my top 3 worst songs of all time."

Man, that escalated quickly! :O

Good review as usual though! ;)

thanks! :P

You're welcome! ;)

that just goes to show how much of an aching noise that “song” is. “lemonade” is much better.

'Lemonade' is actually so forgettable that MusicLover reminded me to put it in my review! :P

yeah, the way she says “tap in” really is interesting haha. :P

i’m happy about “lemonade” too, hope it has longevity!

Even less than two hours later, I can't remember at all what it sounds like! :P

lol i’m listening to it right now. :)

Yea its all Four of thems best UK Hit

I have no desire to listen to it again! :P

i really wish gunna would get more uk hits. if the mediocre d-block europe can enter, why not him?

tbh I really like D-Block's music for some reason especially Free 22 which i still stream on repeat

i’m usually in the mood for a good trap song though lol.

Great review coolo!!!!!

thanks dami! hope you’re okay. :)

Welcome mate!! Hope you're fine too! Everything's fine on this corner of the planet 😂

Haha, fair enough. I know you're a much bigger trap fan than I am anyway! :P

Great review mate!!
