Official Singles Chart on 23/7/2021

ikr you two look nothing alike, also who dares to downvote you when you did nowt wrong? this place is a joke sometimes istg.

no he looks more mature than you :P

what did george ever do? 😔

i won’t point fingers but i will say this - it’s not george.

but yeah, we should’ve moved on by now.

ok, im just sad, im trying to move on and i get p*ssed easily

Yeah

sounds fair, but please don't do anything bad to me again.

yeah im ready to move on, i specifically want to mend things with you coolocelot, also can you recommend some tracks from dave's new album for me pls lol im too lazy to check it all out but maybe some day soon

i'll chat with you later tonight, i'm going for dinner shortly. love my chicken.

i would recommend you some of my favourite tracks from the album (one of them is a 100/100) but a majority of the albums tracks is so long lol, i don't know if you'll have the patience for them. XD

probably not XD i might see if i can find some radio edits of them

Ok, I'll be honest that maybe one or two of my comments were a bit unfair on you.🙂

Save the rest for george 🤭

Ok this is a message to all of you

I’ll grow the up if you do

⁉️

you what? XD

get vaccinated y'all

🤨⁉️

Intense interrobanging

Absolutely. ⁉️

Have you heard Therapy yet? If not could you recommend me some songs from Dave's album and I'll recommend you some songs from Therapy. 🙂

our resident ocelot isnt a big fan of birthday or way too long if that helps XD

it was polarising from the 4 songs i’ve heard so far!

don’t play is fantastic, beautiful is good, our song is mid and way too long is terrible haha. i’d appreciate some recommendations, as i’m planning to listen to a few albums over this next week!

as for dave, there’s a few long songs on we’re all alone in this together, but they’re all awesome. if i were to recommend three, i’d recommend verdansk, in the fire and survivors guilt to you before you can crack on with the rest of the album. :)

Thanks for the recommendations.🙂. I'll try to give them a listen very soon.

I think that from Therapy, there are a couple of songs in around the 7-10 song point which miss the mark but there are definitely three songs I can recommend. Tell your girlfriend is a great song and to me sounds like a newer version of 2002, kiss my(uh oh) with little mix is the best pop song from the album and is very upbeat(I would listen to this watching MV as I found it quite cringy but at the same time funny), and my final over is X2, it's a great opening to the album and is actually quite like let them know only slightly slower and at times without a beat but still a banger. Hope you like my recommendations-judging by your great music taste I think you will like X2 the most.

Hope you are well and I'll try to give my thoughts on your Dave recommendations by Saturday.🙂

Birthday isn't on the album anyway🤣, unfortunately.

birthday ain’t even on the album lol.

OCC have a rule called ACR which means after 9 weeks in chart and 3 weeks decline in streams a song's streams will be halved :/

8/10 for me, shame the album it’s from is really disappointing. :)

aay banger

didn’t expect you to like it tbh since it doesn’t seem like your thing 😂

i haven’t got any plans to check out the album though, so i’ll just stick with that particular song.

i was surprised too, i first heard it and didn't like it but didn't dislike it either, someone close to me liked it along with piran and that sort of made me like it lol, just outside my top 50 rn

8/10 for me, but still not the best "willow" that we've seen in the Top 40 over the past year! ;)

yeah, i think you know which willow i prefer... ;)

Probably the same one that I prefer! ;)

yeah clash is a bottom 3 track on that album but it’s still a light 8/10, showing you how much i loved the album.

in the fire, both sides of a smile and heart attack are by far my favourites, with the latter getting a strong 10/10. :D

Agree with you on Heart Attack, it’s incredible. especially the last couple minutes

royal blood are so underrated on the singles chart... 😩

Yeah I heard it, one of the people that work for the chart would have edited it beforehand although it was an awful job they would have been better off not playing it lol. I’m pretty sure I heard a swear word sneak out at some point tbh. I hope they don’t play that version in the future.

yeah, the clean version sounded terribly edited lmao.

Aint That by who please? Curious about the song you guys are talking about

doja cat.

the lead artists for swerve and don’t play are jay1 and anne-marie respectively so it counts towards their tally, jj is a featured artist on both so that explains why. :)

I always thought Don't Play was also JJ's song because of the KSI x Anne Marie instead of a feature.

Don’t play belongs to AM and Swerve belongs to Jay1

True, but they listed Anne Marie first on OCC so that’s what they go off. I’m fairly sure there was another case in 2018 when Shawn Mendes released Self Titled, because he had four because he had Lost In Japan listed under Zedd

omg my comment finally got posted 😅

Were you posting the real name?

yea... it took me a while to figure taht out 😂 i haven't had a disqus account in a hot minute & i forgot some words are censored hahaha

Most racist song I've ever heard. Should be banned!

hmm ok

how’s it racist? i’m not a fan either, kiss me more is better but i don’t see how it’s racist. 😂

That’s what makes it so good. 😍

Exactly

omgg i love them! i've been a fan ever since the eurovision finals and i don't even listen to rock... 😅😅

Don’t they just. Haven’t heard Beggin yet but Zitti E Buoni is easily one of the best singles of 21.

Hopefully

You like Dance Monkey ??.. most people here will give anything for it to go 😂

I love dance monkey

As long as Fly away becomes a big hit and she isn't just remembered for Dance Monkey I'm fine with it being here

Me too

It's due to a chart rule called ACR. If a song is 10 weeks or more old and has been decreasing in streams for 3 weeks in a row then its streams are halved.

The UK chart have a rule called ACR, where if a song declines in streams for 3 weeks in a row and has had over 9 weeks in chart it goes on ACR, meaning its streams are halved

omgg thank u sm!! i wonder why that is a thing though 🤔🤔

thank u!

ed sheeran placed 17 songs in the top 20 in 2017 which stuck around for ages so that and the 3 single rule (3 songs per lead artist only) were invented :/

ooh is that ariana in ur pfp? love ha sm ❤

OCC have this rule called ACR where If a song has been charting for 10 weeks and has decreased in streams and sales for 3 weeks it falls but songs can reset if they get a big enough boost

ooh thats unfair though... maybe it's just me but i think the charts should reflect whats truly popular no matter what... billboard has the recurrent rules and i hate it 😔

thank u!!!

lol i was about to explain but people below did it for me. 😂

oh same, but the recurrent rules are much better than what we have here :/

yee :D

yea true... the 3 single rule sounds worse than the recurrent rules on bb thats for sure 😔

taste!!

I think it's to make room for newer songs on the chart. I don't like the rule though since it makes the charts less accurate regarding what people are actually listening to.

100%, if it goes top 10 again soon i think it can prevent ACR for a few weeks :D

They've released an acoustic version this week so I would imagine it should get a little push, just not sure what other tracks are heading up to the top 10 next week to challenge

Interesting an acoustic version

He

Yes

EDM :D

that’s a lot of longevity for get out my head haha. you must really like it! 😂

I always post this every Friday :)

i need to check here more :D

Yes... You should :)

It's been on the charts since October but Calabria is fighting it hard

Still don't understand why the UK sleeps on EDM tracks from other countries honestly. Wasted love is one of my favourite songs of the year

The best genre

Mine too... Wasted Love actually charted about a month ago but quickly fizzled out

Thank You Very Much.. Exactly

probably at the bottom 100. that's sad

Yeah at No. 80 or so

girl i've barely heard of any of these artists (sans bebe rexha)... i guess u brits love edm/techno so much😅

I like EDM and also I'm not British 😂

ooh right haha 😂😅 i do like some edm but i think i need to get into more songs 🤔

I'm also into Rap and some Alternative

the only rap artists i listen to are doja (surprise!) and megan thee stallion 😂 i need to get on board with rap & edm for suree

-is pop 😂😅 fr though edm is very good!

What kind of music are you into

I do love 'get out my head' so much still but I must say 'always on my mind' is slowly starting to grow on me so I really hope Shane Codd can get some exposure for his latest track and it can climb into the top 100 soon. Took 'get out my head' over 4 months to finally do it

i listen to pop music all the time! also i like r&b and alternative pop

Oh.. okay

Oh yeah. He released a new song. I completely forgot

YES i love jessie ware... what a queen 🤩 what do u think of what's your pleasure?

what’s your pleasure is such a fantastic album, it’s such a nostalgic, groovy, fun album! i opted for the deluxe as that means more bangers. strong 8/10 album!

anthony fantano didn’t score it a 9 for nothing... :)

favourite tracks are the title track, save a kiss, adore you, in your eyes, mirage, remember where you are, please, eyes closed, overtime and hot n heavy. 😻

yes it's my second favorite album from last year (first is folklore) and i loved every second off of it... 🤩😂

i LOVE save a kiss!!
spotlight, step into my life & please are my favorites

folklore was actually my second favourite album of last year behind legends never die by juice wrld! it’s also her best album to date. ☺️

GH

sh*t sorry didnt mean to send tha tlol

The absolutely incredible taste here though! 😍

‘Folklore’ was actually my third favourite album of 2020, but it was Taylor’s follow-up that was the best one of last year for me, haha. :)

omgg yes! i also loved evermore... though i still prefer folklore cause that album means alot to me 😅 i love ur pfp too!! fearless is very very good

Totally agree

Thank you! I really like yours too, haha. :)

I feel like 'Folklore' has a few amazing songs, while 'Evermore' has more good songs!

'Exile' is definitely the best song that she's released so far this decade though.

How did they even survive. 😔

Dear lord :/ ig some of africa it isnt economically possible so maybe thats why

We downloaded off other websites. That's also the reason why most African countries don't have music charts

South Africa has had Spotify since 2018 though. The other countries had Apple Music and deezer

Fair enough, that makes sense. :)

But we also have our own Streaming Sites too

Only SA and North Africa that had Spotify. It was just released for most of Africa this year

wow, that’s weird. 😩

i remember chatting to some bulgarian dude in 2019 where amazon doesn’t run in his country too... :I

No Amazon either. No Disney +, HBO or anything like that 😔

, i remember when you gave beggin a 9/10, now it’s a 4. haha.

at least we agree that “slave” is the better maneskin track. :)

Yeah, I don’t know what I was thinking, it’s just a boring cover. 😭

I Wanna Be Your Slave >>>>>> for sure. 😩

Elderly genes kicking in 😂😂 https://media2.giphy.com/media/lTcVpVbtFNX1K/giphy.gif

I Wanna Be Your Slave supremacy, I hope it never leaves the charts😂
