What is it with the lazy sods on this site that cannot keep it running properly. Fix it you idiots.

No Chart
AG
Alison Green
Where`s the Chart
青
青木修
I also want to check the music of the old charts for the New Year, so please restore it as soon as possible.
AlexanderMach
The album chart has been broken for days now. A few days ago, it was only the official album chart top 100 missing, but you could still see sales / vinyls / physical etc. Now everything is gone including all the history. I wonder why it takes that long to fix it. Come on, we are waiting for year end lists too, this has to be fixed ASAP.
Neil Morgenstern
Your site is totally broken. Too busy trying to spy on me with totally unnecessary cookies (why do you need to know who I am if I'm just browsing historic charts?)
I don't want to view the current chart, I asked for the chart of 8 December 1979. It hasn't change for 42 years, why doesn't your site just show it to me?
AG
Andrew Green
It looks like it's pointing to a page that doesn't exist. If you change the date in the url from 19721230 to 19721224, it should work! I've noticed this a few times on this site, very frustrating, especially as there's no easy alternate way to get the charts.
Naftali Morgenstern
I am getting it when I use the menu. I also just searched for Blink
182 under Artists and it came up with no results, but of course there is
a band of that name who had many hits. I also got to the chart I was
looking for and hit the + sign and it didn't expand the chart run.
Lots of things that previously worked and now are not.

Gerardo Amador
Well.... At the very end of this year, I am so grateful that I got accepted, not by the page, but by you guys... Thanks Piran, you were the first to answer me and made me feel accepted thou I am from Honduras in Central América, never asked any strange questions I might have expected, but you included me in, so naturally, I felt so confortable... Thanks again Piran... Every week since I joined I was looking forward for your either 3 ways of ahowing your likes and dislikes in the every week chart... Then Coolocelot started answering my replies... Thank you Coolocelot, you are very nice people... And then Mateusz was also including me, thou with very short answers, but you included me... Then I have to thank Damian and also Thierry Henon, and Dave Jackson... Thanks to all of you guys... My best wishes to each and every one... Merry, merry Christmas ☃️🎄 and a very Happy New Year!! 🎄🎁☃️🥳🥳🥳. Much can be said about England... I just can say I have a nice bunch of beautiful people I chat with every week, and that makes me happy!!! Love you guys, you are teaching me about a nice combination: Friends and music... My best song for 2021: “My Lovely Friends from England" by the best band in the world; You guys!! C U next week...
Piran
Aww, this has honestly made my day. :)
T
Trebor
Total top40 Xmas songs...just for 1 week... Or 2? That's what I'd like to see!!!
Damián
There's a new absolutely wonderful new song from Norwegian superstars Astrid S and Dagny, 'Pretty' , which is a banger!!!
Damián
The Christmas official charts is extremely boring
KF
Karl Frost
MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYONE has now peaked at no. 6 for 3 years running. In total it's spent 6 weeks there during that time.Is it baned from the top 5?
🧡 oliviasnoodles 🍜
nope, it went to number 1 in 1985. :)
S
Simon
So Saint Etienne are no 1 and 3 in the sales singles chart but not in the top 100. What a situation.
Have both charts but class the single which ever it reached its peak whether that is in the sales or official chart, and take the highest number of weeks it spent no matter in which of the 2 charts.
EDB
Ed Derek Bo
Sia's Snowman reaches a new peak yay

Alone with you on ACR and burn by juice wrld missing the top 40 :(

Trebor
I hope Sir Elton can get "step into Christmas" into the top ten this week... 2 number ones this year already... Maybe 3 with ladbaby 🤞🏻 Would love to see him have 3 top tens... 4 would be pushing it with "cold heart" but that would be outstanding!!!
Luis Gerardo Amador
I thought the same!!!
thierry henon
JESS GLYNNE "THIS XMAS" deserves better than 86 this week!
thierry henon
i really like SIA "SNOWMAN"..weird as it never managed to reach the Top 40 in the UK but is at number 1 right now in NORWAY!
🧡 oliviasnoodles 🍜
agreed, i don’t really care for sia but definitely agree with you on snowman. great jazzy tune :))
thierry henon
was hoping to see the newcomer OLIVIA DEAN reaching the Top 20 by now with her wonderful version of THE XMAS SONG!
GA
Gerardo Amador
I thought the same... The song is very nice in her voice... But that happens constantly.... Nice Christmas songs take time to grow on people's taste... They take years so we will ssurely see Olivia Dean in the top 20 maybe next year!!! 😩
thierry henon
Really hope to see the amazing LEONA LEWIS reaching the Top 20 next week!
Luis Gerardo Amador
I think she will, but in 2 weeks...next week is still for Christmas songs, which will start to leave by the first week in January...by the second week it will be a miracle if any is still in it...maybe MERRY CHRISTMAS
ED SHEERAN & ELTON JOHN will be around the last 10 positions...
thierry henon
and finally BOBBY HELMS has reached a new peak with JINGLE BELL ROCK! About time! great song! should have made the Top 10 ages ago!!
thierry henon
Really hope to see BRENDA LEE reaching a new peak next week? After Mariah's, Brenda's xmas song is definitely my fav of all time...
AR
Anthony Rogers
Hi Thierry Happy Christmas, I think that it will be really pushed next year on it's 60th Anniversary.
thierry henon
Merry Christmas Anthony! hope you are well and ready for Christmas and the celebrations next week? Have a wonderful week end.
thierry henon
Happy to see Elton John at number 1 this week but i am afraid the sausage guy with their own version of MERRY XMAS will be our Xmas number 1 next week!!
thierry henon
Happy Friday everyone! How are you all? Ready for Christmas? Have a great week end and be safe!
eternalricardo
Roddy Ricch 'LIVE LIFE FAST' - possibly the most disappointing album of the year imo. Maybe my expectations were too high but this new album seems to disregard everything that made his last one so great. It's mid I'm afraid

CJtheDJ
I've said my views on your Top 40 already, but #47, #85, #86 and #95 really stand out from the one in the bottom portion!
Piran
It doesn't have to be songs that were released in 2021! It just has to be any song that I liked enough that I heard this year.
Most of these are carryover hits from late 2020 too, but that'll probably the same with the UK Chart Of The Year that'll get put out in a couple of weeks from now! :P
Piran
Tom Grennan had a really successful year on both of our charts. :)
🧡 oliviasnoodles 🍜
fair enough, i’m currently indecisive on whether i should put sugar on my year end list or not
Piran
If it helped define your music taste in 2021, then go for it! :P

Some great songs on here. I don't have a top 100, but my favourite song released this year is "Sky Love" by Foxes. :)

So surprised to see you charted the following songs so low in your countdown: 93) Billie Eilish - Happier Than Ever (I thought it was going to be at least in your top 20) / 86) Lost Frequencies ft Calum Scott - Where Are You Now (I expected this to be on your top 50) / 81) Maisie Peters - Boy /Another top 20 to me) / 66) Anne-Marie & Niall Horan - Our Song (A top 40 in my consideration for your taste) / 63) Jonasu - Black Magic (This one a top 30) / 62) Ed Sheeran - Bad Habits (A top 40 at least) / 49) Adele - Easy On Me (A top 30 I thought) / 40) Clean Bandit & Topic ft Wes Nelson - Drive (A top 20) / 38) Shouse – Love Tonight (Another top 20) / 36) Ava Max - My Head & My Heart (A little upper than you ranked it) / 34) Dua Lipa - Levitating (A top ten, I thought) / 27) Glass Animals - Heat Waves (This I thought you would rank it below the top 50) / 23) Maisie Peters - Villain (A top 15 I thought) / * Your top 5 was more than predictable, not the same with your top ten, most of them I thought well, but I missed with 7) Charli Adams - Didn’t Make It and 10) Miles Away ft Claire Ridgely - Bring Me Back, both of which I thought were going to be top 20....just my opinion from I am learning from you...now I can say something nice (To me) about you: Piran, you are unpredictable!! I say this with a warm feeling in my heart. Greetings from the other side of the world, Honduras!!
Luis Gerardo Amador
You mean like, "Levitating" or "Blinding lights"??
🧡 oliviasnoodles 🍜
that’s right! head and heart is there too and that’s from 2020
Piran
Hey Luis! :)
Thanks for your very kind words on my Year-End list & yeah, outside of the Top 5, there were a lot of surprises going on here, haha.
Looking forward to seeing what 2022 will bring us in terms of music!
Piran
Ooh, I'll have to check that one out! I've been obsessed with 'Sister Ray' by her lately, haha. :)
Tak Opidisc
I love "Sister Ray" too! :D
Luis Gerardo Amador
😁😁😂😂 Sugaaaarrr, yes please...so, com´n and put it down on me!!!
Luis Gerardo Amador
Head & Heart & My Head & My Heart are both in Piran´s 2020 year-end list...both are wonderful songs!!!
I remember that in a given moment this year both songs were back to back in the top 50 - 60 positions...
Piran
A very good couple of years for "head & heart" songs in my own charts! :P
🧡 oliviasnoodles 🍜
oh god ladbabys new song is horrible, i thought it’d be so bad it’s funny but no it’s just awful and one of the worst things i’ve ever heard

CJtheDJ
I feel like I'm the only one that hasn't heard it yet

Track 5, by any chance? :P
🧡 oliviasnoodles 🍜
unlock it is a tune
Piran
Whenever Kim Petras is credited, you know that my expectations are going to be high! :P
⁉️
, can’t say I agree, but fair enough. :)
I would type out a review, but that’s a bit redundant when I give everything on the album a 10/10. 💀
Luis Gerardo Amador
Best?? worst??
Damián
I guess is the lowest points of all your reviews
Piran
Yeah, it sadly wasn't my taste. :/
Piran
Best was 'Come Together' & worst was 'All Too Well', but I didn't dislike a single track from this album, haha. :)
Piran
Yeah, it wasn't really my taste, but again, I love Charli XCX in general, but it's cool that you liked it at least. :)

Gerardo Amador
I already checked Diana's album... I average it 83%...I love Diana, and her songs "Come together", "Tomorrow", and others, but my fav is "The Answer's always Love"!!!!! And "If the World just dance"
Piran
Woah, 83% is a very high average! :O
C
CJtheDJ
You should all be streaming the new The Kunts song!
Piran
Banger. :)
C
CJtheDJ
Also what is everyone's favorite remix of it?
C
Conor
NOT the sausage roll ones - gives ladbaby ptsd haha
C
CJtheDJ
You and me both buddy lol
🧡 oliviasnoodles 🍜
yes!!
Piran
There are 24 songs in this week’s Top 40 (60%) that are holiday songs, which I believe is the most ever for the chart a week before the Christmas countdown itself! :O
Sidney Lovecraft
Christmas songs you mean
Piran
Yeah, that's what I meant by "holiday songs" in this context! :D
C
CJtheDJ
Well, let's all act shocked for number 1 next week
Piran
What do you mean? I have absolutely no idea what it could be. :/
C
CJtheDJ
I think it'll be Oliver Tree after the new version of 'Life Goes On'
C
Conor
Me neither! Who could it possibly be?!!! Maybe someone particularly annoying who keeps flogging a dead horse by singing about sausage rolls each year and easily gets the christmas #1, but who knows, it could be anyone, wham, mariah, even the pogues all definitely have a chance
Piran
No, Taylor decides to release 'Message In A Bottle' as a single tonight, it gets a massive amount of sales & streaming from all of us & it becomes Taylor's first ever Christmas #1 single! :P
C
CJtheDJ
I wouldn't actually be mad!
Piran
That'd be a bad start to the new year for me! :P
Piran
I think you know what my reaction to it would be like! :P
C
Conor
that would be amazing! Or she remixes christmas tree farm with ed sheeran and it goes to #1
Aaron
You dont like that song? i think its a banger lol :) the music video is kinda weird tho
🧡 oliviasnoodles 🍜
i listened to the remix and watched the video on youtube and i can’t even give it a score out of 10 cause i had no idea what was happening 😭
Piran
I can hear the appeal, but the vocals are way too annoying for me to get on board with. :/
Piran
That would honestly make my entire year, haha. :)

At least D-Block Europe got another Top 40 debut with an above average song coming from them, but I’d still much rather have Juice WRLD here instead. :/
RIP! 🙏
🧡 oliviasnoodles 🍜
it pains me to say this, but as a huge fan of juice wrld, fighting demons wasn’t a good album. i don’t dislike it though, i just feel that his record label are milking him and using his unreleased music as a cash grab. basically like faith and bad vibes forever. i do love not enough and already dead though!
Piran
Yeah, I think the morality of it is controversial (as is the case with a lot of posthumous albums), but I've had a lot of emotional connection with Juice WRLD's music lately that I never really had before & 'Already Dead' might even be my favourite solo song of his to date! :O
⁉️
, I can’t agree at all apart from the last word.
The new D-Block Europe is probably their second best to chart, and I hate everything I’ve heard from the new Juice WRLD album.
Piran
I only really like two D-Block Europe songs, those being 'Ferrari Horses' & 'UFO'! :P
Piran
Seven Christmas songs in the Top 10 & ‘Seventeen Going Under’ is back in the region yet again! 😍
We love to see it. :)
Rob Parkinson
Looking after Xmas be exciting to see how well Sam Fender does and expecting imagine Dragons and lost frequencies to get big boosts doing so well amongst all the festive tracks
Luis Gerardo Amador
...and we still have one or 2 more weeks to go, Piran!!
Luis Gerardo Amador
And by the way...a couple of weeks ago all of you guys were endeavored in commenting how the Singles chart was mostly being a listeners list, more than a real average among downstreams, downloads, and airplay...wel, I wanted to express my opinion in the matter, and I know is late...I just wanted to say that I agreed with all of you, and also you were predicting how the chart was going to be full of the festive songs, which is already here with a 70% of the top ten with Christmas songs plus the ones that are getting in next week like DO THEY KNOW IT'S CHRISTMAS - BAND AID, or COME ON HOME FOR CHRISTMAS - GEORGE EZRA that may as well grow to be included in it...I see clearly your point in halting with your Stoplight comments (Which I so eagerly wait for)
Piran
Yeah, there's nothing really to say about the singles chart other than Christmas songs, but I'm sure there will be again after the festive takeover dies down in a couple of weeks!
I'm definitely looking forward to bringing back my analysis of the Top 40 every Friday night, haha. :)
Piran
Yeah, we'll find out what this year's Christmas #1 is in just five days from now! :O
Piran
I'm happy for both Sam Fender & Lost Frequencies both holding up fairly well despite the festive takeover, but much less so for Imagine Dragons. :/
Rob Parkinson
Do you not like Imagine Dragons's music? I loved them as soon as I heard 'Radioactive' and then heard 'Demons' which led to me buying their debut album 'night visions' which every track is amazing. I then went to see them live and they were phenomenal and then when I looked into them more with Dan Reynolds the lead singer a straight man with children who actively helps gay Mormons come to terms with their sexuality and fights to get them accepted in that religion and the band members all actively go out of their way to help people with mental health issues as many of them have suffered with mental health and used music to overcome and so help others easily made them one of my favorite bands, not just for the amazing music they make but also what they give back.
Piran
I liked their older hits, but their recent ones just aren’t doing it for me. :/
