I don't normally say this but with open consideration of Love Nwantiti (Ah Ah Ah), I suggest you guys to listen to "Beggie Beggie" by Ayra Starr. It's a lovely R'N'B afrobeat song that can make you feel emotional and happy at the same time. It features Ckay, so that should be a convincing point. Did I forget to mention that she's 19 !!!! :O..... Such a beautiful voice and if you like that song stream her album "19 & Dangerous" it includes the popular song Samaritan too :)
K
Kiesling
The Motto also debuted this week and Tell It To My Heart dropped but it seems Remember and Black Magic could stay for a while

K
Kiesling
All I Want For Christmas Is You re-enters into the Top 70. The Christmas invasion has started. I didn't expect this till late November.
But on more Optimistic news, Last Christmas has also re-entered. This song was played a lot on radio last year and I got hooked to it. I don't normally bother with songs outside of the 2000's but this song got my Christmas feeling extra special and jolly last year; let's hope it can do the same this year. Plus the MATTN & Dino Warriors remake last year was dope 😁😁
K

Kiss My (Uh Oh), How Will I Know, Knife Talk and Especially Out Out & 2055 (My Favorite English Lingual Rap Song Of The Year) have been Slapped By ACR 😭😭😭

If You Really Love Me (How Will I Know) Got hit by ACR bad this week!! It's definitely not my fave Guetta tune he's released this year but I quite liked it, shame it fell so much!
⁉️
Well , guess the Christmas songs are back. 😩
Too bad that most of them (including the 2 that re-entered) are terrible. 😳
🧡 oliviasnoodles 🍜
congratulations to abba for their monstrous number 1 debut - over 200k?! okay, i knew it was gonna be big based on the pre-order sales but that’s immense. huge congrats. now the question is: could adele overtake that amount?
Damián
Amaaaazing
🧡 oliviasnoodles 🍜
the christmas takeover begins… i wonder if all i want for christmas is you could go back to number 1? other than that, it’s GREAT to see kali uchis and summer walker - two underrated female artists ive been rooting for - debut in the top 40. the rise for seventeen going under is really unexpected, not complaining though as it’s still great - it kinda cooled off on me, but i still really like it. better days is another song that deserves to be a hit leading into 2022. do it to it though, absolutely stinks and it’s one of the most sinister and annoying hits i’ve heard all year. might rival talk about and without you to be my worst song of 2021 at this point!
as for travis scott, the astroworld incident is a story for another day, but i’m gonna say i’m devastated by the situation for now. mafia > escape plan, but i love both. they’ve both been on repeat for me since they dropped.
also, happy red day! ❤️
Aaron
Sad to see Goodbye by Nathan Dawe drop out of the chart, it’s my favorite edm song right now :P
Mrsliver
I don't know how to feel about Do it to it being in the top 40 it's a rare case of me wondering if i should like or hate it
Piran
The Christmas songs seem to be re-entering earlier & earlier each year, don’t they? 😂
Mid-November might be a bit early for me to start getting into the festive spirit just yet, but when the classics from Mariah & WHAM! are as iconic as they are, I’m more than happy to see them already back in the charts. :)
C
Conor
I'm glad there here as hopefully they'll climb soon and push some rubbish out the chart!!!
Piran
What do you consider to be the "rubbish" in the charts right now? Just curious. :)
There are so many songs that could fit in that category for me!
C
Conor
ATM, Bad Habits. I doubt it'll fall but I'm so sick of it. I also hate Coming For You. they are the worst tracks in the chart in my opinion, along with the new Travis Scott and Summer Walker songs. I don't like Travis's music in general and I found Summer's tracks boring!
Piran
Agreed on 'Coming For You' & 'Bad Habits' (although for different reasons), I liked one Travis song but didn't like the other, while Summer is very underrated in my opinion. :)
R

Think The Motto has potential to become a smash after Christmas!

WEEKLY CHART REVIEW (11/11/2021 – 17/11/2021)
🔴 (Negative)
1) ‘Coming For You’ went up a few places! Honestly, I’m just more disappointed than I am angry at this point. Thankfully, there’ll be a huge surge in holiday music soon which will hopefully kill of the momentum for this before it gets any kind of run inside the Top 10! Unfortunately, I get the feeling that it might have a second wind as we go into 2022, but that’s a bridge we’ll cross when we come to it.
2) ‘Mafia’ sneaked in as the second Travis Scott song! I felt that the production seemed very hollow on this, Travis Scott sounds way less engaged & hyped than he normally does, while his somewhat monotonic chanting in the ad-libs kills the vibe of this any further. I normally don’t mind the heavy use of autotune either, but it’s really being overused here! It leaves me with no real reason to revisit this sadly.
3) ‘24/5’ falling a few places this week! Britain, why are you letting this tank? It doesn’t deserve it!
🟠 (Mixed)
1) ‘Flowers [Say My Name]’ is the highest debut of the week! I’m honestly not too sure where I sit with this one. I can hear where ArrDee is a competent MC, but I’m not sure really sure if that reflects on his rapping skills here! Much to my surprise, the samples of ‘Say My Name’ by Destiny’s Child & ‘Flowers’ by Sweet Female Attitude are interpolated as well as they can over a drill beat. I think I’d like this a lot more if it was by a different rapper though, because this is far from ArrDee’s best performance!
2) ‘Escape Plan’ entered the chart & I honestly don’t even feel comfortable fully reviewing this one given the background behind what happened last week! I mean, it’s decent overall with the more haunting production & much tighter flow from Travis Scott, but this doesn’t sit at all well with me when you look into everything that happened last Friday at his Astroworld Festival, but that’s a discussion we can have in the replies if anyone wants to discuss it. RIP to the nine people who tragically lost their lives at it though! 🙏
3) ‘No Love’ is here! I’m really surprised that Summer Walker didn’t have more of a presence in this week’s chart, especially how well she was doing on the Apple Music charts all weekend. That being said, I can definitely see why if any song of hers was going to make a splash in the Top 40, it would be this one! The romantic R&B vibe relaxes me a lot, even if the lyrics are incredibly raunchy. For as much as I think Summer Walker is incredibly underrated, SZA definitely carries this slow jam for me! I don’t see it sticking around sadly, but I hope I’m proven wrong, because I could see this growing on me enough for it to become a future positive section contender.
4) ‘Sad Girlz Luv Money’ made it! Honestly, I can tolerate this a lot more than I should. Sure, the vocals are screechy & the production is incredibly basic, but the voices are layering in a way over the bubbly beat to the point where the whole mood of the song feels kind of elevated! I also repeat the content of how women in today’s society should have full independence in what they do & the chemistry between the two acts in somewhat convincing too. Yeah, this turned out a lot better than expected! I wouldn’t say I love it exactly, but I completely understand the appeal here.
5) ‘Out Out’ gets placed on ACR! For as much as I like Joel Corry, this is definitely one of his weakest singles. It had a really solid run anyway, so I’m not that bothered about it crashing in this new chart!
6) ‘Voyage’ debuted at #1 on the albums chart with the biggest opening week of 2021 so far! Again, it’s good to see ABBA finally back making music together after nearly 40 years, but this is nowhere near as good as some of their 70’s classics.
🟢 (Positive)
1) ‘Easy On Me’ somehow pulls back yet again to spend a fourth consecutive week at #1! Interestingly, this is also the second week in a row where it’s ended up retaining despite an Ed song leading in the mid-week update.
2) ‘Drive’ is officially a Top 20 hit! This has an undeniably warm groove to it that just keeps me coming back to it almost every single day.
3) ‘I Wish’ also made it into the region! Okay, I’m even more fine with ‘Out Out’ being pushed out if it means that this gains some traction instead. This is so much better in my opinion!
4) ‘One Right Now’ is here & man, The Weeknd’s really been on a roll with his 80’s pop anthems, hasn’t he? I absolutely love the tight synths combined the shimmering reverbs give this is a somewhat nostalgic feel back to the disco days from a few decades ago, even though this song only came out last week! It also has to be among one of Post Malone’s consistently solid vocal performances. That hook is an absolute earworm too & I think it could’ve been my new obsession of the week if a certain album hadn’t dropped today, but we’ll get into that in another post.
5) ‘Seventeen Going Under’ not took a massive jump this week, but it’s at a new peak! Does anyone know why it’s back? I don’t recall it getting an ACR reset! So happy about it regardless though, haha.
6) ‘Smokin Out The Window’ charts higher than I personally would’ve expected! Funnily enough, while critics will look to ‘Leave The Door Open’ & ‘Skate’ as the classy Silk Sonic hits that show how well Bruno Mars & Anderson .Paak work together, I actually feel more intrigued by this one. What interests me is that both singers have enough smoothness & pristine in their voices to make this sound like a love song, even though the content is actually about finding that a former lover has been sleeping around with multiple people, therefore causing you to stress smoke! That, along with the 70’s funk instrumentation, turns an otherwise bad situation into something a fair bit more uplifting. I’m actually curious to check out their new album to came out today, because this got me very interested to see what else they’re capable of together!
7) ‘Better Days’ (NEIKED) moved up again! I wasn’t expecting it given how many new entries there were this week, but it’s my favourite EDM song right now, so I’ll definitely take even a climb of one place for this.
8) ‘Do It To It’ cracked the Top 40! It was a big ask trying to match the level of quality from the 2006 R&B original by female group Cherish, but Acraze somehow managed to do it! I love how the beat is perfectly synchronised with the catchy vocal hook, along with the pulsing bassline & bopping drums that hit exactly at the right over the drop. A lot of big DJ’s have been hyping this up at their sets over the summer & honestly, given how it’s impossible not to sing or dance along to this, I can see why, because this is a banger!
9) ‘Red [Taylor’s Version]’ was released today & honestly, I’ve got plenty more to say about it in another post, but right now, I’m still too overwhelmed by the insane quality on it to even do a long piece of commentary of it! All I’m going to say is, if you haven’t already, check it out. It might effectively be a double album with 30 tracks on it & a running time of over two hours, but trust me, it’s worth it!
My latest personal chart (replace the * with an “o”): www.crownnote.c*m/charts/piran/pirans-top-50-14
P.S. Sorry if my analysis of the songs was a bit blunt today! I had a very busy week with work & a lot going on personally, but just let me know if you’d like me to elaborate on anything here & I’ll try to give more of an explanation over the weekend. :)
⁉️
I don’t know how to feel personally, but I would very much be interested in a conversation about the Astroworld festival.
R
Riley
The rules changed in summer if a song gets a 25% boost it gets an automatic acr reset instead of waiting a week and this has happened to Sam fender!
C
Conor
I love this review, I agree with basically all the points!
Piran
I guess the controversy that I've seen arise lately is people debating on how much Travis Scott is to blame behind it!
On one hand, it appears that he attempted to stop the show several times, but on the other hand, I've seen some sources claim that it was apparently because of losing his shoe rather than the nine people who tragically lost their lives that night or the dozens of others badly injured in the crush! Either way, it seems like he was completely oblivious at the time to the extent of the danger in the crowd at that time.
Personally, I think more of the blame lies with the organisers & security! Yeah, for as much as I'm against it, it's generally easy to smuggle drugs into a festival, but how on earth did it get to stage that the event went well over its capacity? It seemed like fundamental health & safety policies weren't followed there, especially based on some people trying to break in hours before the incident!
Sadly, I get the feeling that a lot of people are going to be put off rap festivals for good after this, but I hope if anything, what happened taught everyone a lesson regarding large-scale outdoor events like this one. :/
Piran
Ah, so it got an ACR reset already? I didn't even know it became big on TikTok until today! :O
Piran
Thanks Conor! How are you doing anyway? :)
Carl Mefkintallica Foxall
The charts are fixed That's how Drake recently got a number one album just 24 hours after Iron Maiden were leading by 8,000 sales
R
Riley
Yea it’s got an acr reset, happened to summer 91 twice in the summer and bad habits last week, auto reset . And I’ve noticed it creep up the Spotify chart so I imagined it did!
⁉️
Yeah, I definitely agree that it mostly wasn’t his fault, although it’s still a sad situation.
It won’t really change my opinion on him or his music though, I still like him. :)
Piran
For as much as I still think ACR should be scrapped entirely, it's at least nice to know that songs can get immediate resets from it now. :)
R
Riley
Couldn’t agree more, one good thing to come out of a terrible system!

good thanks! Escaping this afternoon with the chart as I have mocks for the next two weeks :(

Good luck with your exams! I'm sure you'll do amazingly well with them. :)
Piran
To be fair, looking at the songs themselves, 'Escape Plan' was decent even if I didn't like 'Mafia' that much. :)
Piran
The best thing will be the day it's got rid of. :)

thank you so much! The charts will be my form of escapism!!!

i saw a clip on youtube where linkin park stopped performing for a moment in london because people were passing out, so they went to check if they were ok. i also saw a clip on reddit of ksi halting his show because of a similar incident.
look, i love travis scott, i still stream his songs on repeat (i’m loving his two new songs atm), but i dunno, he could’ve handled it better. 😥
Piran
Music really helped me this week too. :)
Piran
Yeah, like I said, I don't think Travis is entirely to blame for what happened at all, but he definitely could've done more. :/

I really hope they remove ACR and the 3 song rule entirely one day because there are unnecessary dropouts and it really triggers me because I am a fan of these charts and I literally got upset once I found out that ACR and the 3 song rule was introduced. The Billboard charts don't have it so why should we have it.
john o brien
what's the 3 song rule
eternalricardo
That's interesting, I actually thought the opposite - I loved 'Mafia', but thought 'escape plan' was pretty boring and formulaic lol
Joshua Sombra
Basically where only three songs are allowed as a lead artist but there are exceptions for more than 3 entries of the same artist if they are featured as an artist. To be honest with you, it is kind of unfair that the number of songs allowed as a lead artist is limited. I know the last album bomb Divide was chaotic but it was interesting to see all the tracks on the Top 20. If this and ACR was removed now, I would doubt that all album would occupy the whole Top 20 and it could be less likely.
Joshua Sombra
Yes it will. This rule really triggers me because songs have unnecessary dropouts which really puts me off and same goes for that 3 track rule (this rule caused enough unnecessary dropouts as well).

Did you read about the 10 year old little kid who also passed away in the festival? how could they let in such a young person?... the video that kills me is the one where the girl yells at Travis that somebody is dying...he gets panicked...but continues to sing...the girls yells again at him, and he stops another 10 seconds, but goes back to sing....Selena Quintanilla didn´t wait for a second call...she calmed her people...hushed them....controlled them, and then indulged them with the great hit "Como La Flor" which was a precious prices for an in control mass...her scenery was already breaking when she took action...Travis never understood...
Luis Gerardo Amador
just like sixty-nine, he is going to be taken to court, will be found guilty and will go to prison no less than 5 to 7 years...he is a direct partner in the crime for simply continue singing, whatever the emergency he ignored it...
Luis Gerardo Amador
I agree with you...but I do will change , I already did, my opinion as a person...as a human..his mind will haunt him for a good while...he will feel guilty...he saw directly the first girl that died...his eyes were on her...he wont forget that easy...poor little fellow...
Luis Gerardo Amador
Piran, The Live Version of "MEET ME AT OUR SPOT" by ANXIETY/WILLOW/TYLER COLE is simply beautiful...if you already heard it you will agree with me...it is stuck at # 10 🤔😣
Damián
Loved the review buddy, as always! Agree with most of your thoughts, especially the Mimi Webb's single
Piran
Thank you for the kind words every Sunday! :)
I’m glad that we agree on a lot of points here, especially ‘24/5’, haha.
Piran
I actually prefer it to the original version. :)
Piran
6ix9ine deserves to be behind bars for longer than that in my opinion. :/
Piran
I thought the youngest was 14! That’s so sad to hear though & yeah, it’s not his fault for what happened, but obviously public safety is way more important than delivering a performance, which I don’t think Travis understood at the time. :/
Piran
Each to their own! How’s everything going anyway? :)

Bit much to read on ere I like it short meself.
Piran
Blame the insanely high number of new entries this week for that! :P
eternalricardo
Good thanks mate - Although uni has been so time consuming, its such a drag at the moment! That being said I only have around 6 months until I graduate, so maybe there is light at the end of the tunnel :) how's things with you?
Piran
I’m sure you’re going to smash it! Good luck with the final few months there. :)
Things are good for me thanks! I’m working as a statistician now actually. It’s challenging but fun at the same time!

Hey! :)
Back in August, we made a Discord server for the charts, and we’re still expanding now.
Come over to talk about the charts, music in general or just life.
Here’s the link:

Woah, what happened with ‘Seventeen Going Under’? :O
I wasn’t expecting this to even climb this week, let alone hit a new peak.
Amazing song regardless!
Mrsliver
It got a tiktok boost albeit it was very minor
Piran
It's big on TikTok now? Honestly, it's got a ton of potential going into the New Year! :O

Spit Of You deserves a Top 40 position.
Why are Radio Stations aloud to get away with not playing it.
Piran
Radio 1 played it a lot lately, but yeah, it seems like the general public weren't really interested in it outside of the album. :/
Rob Parkinson
I do think 'spit of you' is the best track he has done so far but at least he is getting some great success right now
Piran
An interesting point to note this week regarding ‘Easy On Me’ is that it matches ‘Someone Like You’ as Adele’s longest consecutive run atop the singles chart (both four weeks).
The latter eventually got a fifth non-consecutive week at #1, so maybe we’ll see the former match or even surpass it with the release of ‘30’ happening next Friday!
This is turning out to have more longevity than we were all predicting upon its release. :)
GA
Gerardo Amador
Yeah... The release of an album usually puts up the first single released, so, it might happen to "Easy on me".... Hey, does anyone here recall what were the numbers of "Hello" by Adele? For a moment I thought it had done better than "Someone like you"... 🤷
🧡 oliviasnoodles 🍜
how many weeks did hello get?
Piran
Incredibly, only three! :O
Piran
The first week figure for ‘Hello’ was 333k! :O
🧡 oliviasnoodles 🍜
ONLY THREE?! i would’ve guessed four or five…
Piran
Yeah, the craziest part is that it opened with 333k combined sales! :O
That’s how much more competitive the singles market was in 2015 compared to now.
