Official Singles Chart Top 40 on 10/4/2020

"I THINK WE'D ALL RATHER HAVE POPPIN BY KSI ON THERE THAN BIRTHDAY BY ANNE-MARIE, DON'T YOU AGREE?!"

Haha, no, sorry! 'Birthday' was disappointing, but 'Poppin' was infuriating... :P

I’d gladly have took I Love Sausage Rolls too, even if that was too bland and nonsensical! :P

You may be shocked to hear this, but I think Poppin has grown on me, and that’s down to KSI’s hook and the fact I freestyled to the beat. Honestly, if I didn’t do the freestyle I did in my room on my own, it wouldn’t have bumped up to a strong 6/10. Still show a dislike for “my wrist got Corona” though.

That wouldn't have been on NOW! 105 though... that's essentially a Christmas song at this point! :D

Best tracks on the album imo are Life Is Good, You Should Be Sad, Say So and No Time To Die (all 10/10s)

Worst tracks on there are Blinding Lights (2/10), Roxanne, My Oh My, and What A Man Gotta Do (4/10s).

I really wished Baby Pluto would have become the bigger hit so that could've ended up on there.

Not bragging but this comment is underrated lol.

I can see What's Poppin enter the Top 40 sometime soon, good song.

Congrats to Coolocelot101!

Hey buddy!

Hey Gordon, I hope you are well.

I’m doing well, thanks! Hope you and your family are doing well. What is the largest number of comments you’ve ever seen? Was it at Billboard.com? I joined basically before they shut it down lol.

Oh, back in the day there use to be a massive amount of comments. Especially when the pop girls were dominating in the early 2010's. I didn't come on until 2015, but I use to pay attention to the comments starting like in 2013. But I remember Gaga and Katy fans would always be arguing, they actually banned comments like for a year because it got out of hand. The most comments I ever saw though was when Gaga released her album in 2013. There were like 3,000 comments on that article lol.

Also I am doing well, thanks.

That’s insane! I joined when everyone was nice and respectful lol. If I could just read those comments, haha.

F***ing classics!!!!!!!

I completely agree on both songs! :)

I know! Bhad Bhabie is only famous for something she said as well as sounding REALLY annoying! Mind you, she was about 13 when this was released. Pompeii though, will be on repeat for all eternity.

Pompeii is a bit of a classic, yes. Can't believe it was seven years ago now! :O

But how is "These Heaux" a classic? All it is, is Bhad Bhabie just sounding like a five year old attempting to be Greta Thunberg!
"Theese haws be fayk flahsin! Fake ays juwlry wit a nehk raysh"

Unfortunately, for Bhad Bhabie, her music career is literally one big meme. I almost kind of feel bad for her, although her Snapchat documentary was actually a lot more interesting than I expected it to be!

Yeah, 'Pompeii' is almost a 2010's classic for me! I'm not sure I can call it one for definite, but it's close.

"Theese haws be fayk flahsin! Fake ays juwlry wit a nehk raysh."

It honestly took me a few seconds to realise this was even English, haha! :D

I was doing a Bhad Bhabie impression! :D

😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂I'm dead

Pompeii is a real indie classic for real though

Haha, I know you were, but it took me a few seconds to find out! ;)

1 upvote = 1 yes! :D

You already did Poppin though, but that was a rant and failed to hit the Top 40.

Haha, thanks mate! :D

My song reviews are usually a lot shorter than rants & besides, I really enjoy doing them, just usually was getting the bus back to my house from work whilst the chart show was on.

I know your raves are just as long too! And I think we all understand about the transport situation. :)

Haha, yeah, I leave work at 4pm, but don't get back to my house until 5:30pm! That's one of the big benefits of working from home. :)

Oh yeah, if my reviews are very long, they're usually a 10/10 or a 1/10, haha!

Yes, yes, yes Piran !!! I miss your full reviews of the Top 40 very much, as well as your predictions of the new entries for the forthcoming week. pS. Have a happy Easter !!!

Hey Ireneusz! Yeah, I remember you being a big fan of them, so with a huge number of likes, I'm pleased to say that I will be doing a full length review on Friday. ;)

Thanks, you too!

Timeless songs!

Hey Gordon! :)

Yeah, I love every single one of them.

Rest in peace to Bill Withers - he was an awesome singer! :(

Yeah, he had such an iconic voice too! :/

So disappointing that Bill Withers didn't reach the top 40.
RIP to Bill.

Yeah, I agree entirely! :/

By the way, regarding the German charts, Ramon Roselly isn't a name I'm familiar with, so without hearing his song, it's already interesting to see him enter straight it in at #1 (also glad it's not another forgettable Deutschrap song!).

I do think 'Blinding Lights' may regain the #1 again though, or potentially 'Roses' could get there if it keeps its momentum up! 'Toosie Slide' debuted roughly where I expected it to.

It doesn't look Loredana's latest single will last, but hey, I adore that 'Salt' made it into the Top 10!

I'm not sure if you know about it yet, but Ramon Roselly just won a very popular talent show of Germany which is about singing. It's something like "The Voice". He just became the winner last saturday and it's his first single. That's why you might not have heard about him so far. :)

Hey Penny! :)

Thanks for that information! I was curious to know why someone's debut single would have a massive debut at #1 like that, but that explains it all.

It probably would be "The Voice", considering the UK have a singing competition of the exact name, although it's been delayed until later in the year due to the current health concerns!

Hey Piran! :)
We also have "The Voice" in Germany, but the show Ramon Roselly is the winner of is another show, but it's very similar to "The Voice".

I'm not sure if I remember correctly, but didn't you have a song of Luca Hänni in your crownnote chart? He was also a winner of that competition in 2012. :)

Oh wow, that's interesting! :)

Yeah, Luca Hänni did get a song in my Crown Note chart, called 'She Got Me', which was Switzerland's entry into last year's Eurovision Song Contest.

Ramon Roselly was the winner of Deutschland Sucht Den Superstar (which is basically American Idol in Germany). The song is a schlager-pop kind of song (the type of song Helene Fischer makes).
I also think that "Blinding Lights" will regain #1 in Germany.

Ah, that's cool! Do you like his winner's song then? :)

The comparison to Helene Fischer sounds promising, since I really enjoy a lot of her music.

The song is alright, better than most of the #1s this year in Germany (aside from "Blinding Lights").

Oh yeah, nothing beats 'Blinding Lights' among 2020 #1 singles anywhere really! ;)

I'm disappointed too, but at least Bill Withers has all of these 3 songs in the current Top 100 chart !!!

I loved that song! I still remember it as the Swiss entry for 2019 Eurovision

I wouldn't have called it my favourite entry of 2019 by any means, but it was probably still Top 10! :)

'Music' by Madonna?

I am on your side I wouldn't mind if it becomes the new number 1 though still not minding Blinding Lights either lol

me too hahaha

What me to off that Dua Lipa Don't Start Now didn't get a chance to go to number 1 because of Number 1 that dosent get off

LOL. Dance Monkey was a vibe though 😂😂 I was hoping Physical would have gotten there but looks like it might suffer the same fate. :/

it has been at that position 3 because Roses /Blinding Lights didn't want to move now Toosie Slide is in the way the same in US she won't get a chance

Absolutely agree with you!

thank you baked potato would be infinity/10 for me

Did you see that Dua Lipa also broke three Spotify records in the past week too? :O

Oh yes! So well deserved!!

Wow, Dua is really doing amazing. Thanks for sharing.

Yeah, her album really earned every single one of those records! :D

Don’t start now honestly deserves an award of some sort! It’s a song which I can still see in years to come being listened to!

Reputation is underrated, especially Delicate

I can't believe 'Delicate' missed the Top 40!

'Reputation' might be my least favourite album of hers, but it's still a light 8/10, so that's saying something, haha. ;)

What would be your top 5 favorite songs off Reputation then?

Nancy Sinatra - These Boots Are Made For Walkin’

Correct!!!

Piran would probably like this GIF lol.

Haha, I love this! :D

The U.K Singles chart are finally getting more comments which is cool. Of course some of this can be factored in to the coronavirus, but it is still nice. Same thing with the Hot 100 articles lately, we reached over 900 comments on the last article.

It's Taylor applauding us, what do you expect? ;)

Of course. :D

I just hope the comments will stay at a reasonable level when this is all over (of course, I want quarantine to be over as soon as possible).

An applause if good enough, but the fact it's my favourite artist makes it even more satisfying! :D

Haha, best GIF ever! :D

They may not be as high when people go back to work and such. But hopefully it can still be pretty good over here.

I think it will! We're seeing a lot of new people here at the moment. :)

Rewind back to 2017 when you were the only one. who actually posted.

Haha, yeah, I remember almost all of the comments were from me back then, now most of them are from Frank instead! :D

I'm actually starting to lose my mind during quarantine now.

Same! My whole family has kind of gone insane, including me. :P

I don't think my family has gone insane, but I'm starting to. :P

Also lost a family member on Saturday night (not too close, but not too distant either), so that really hasn't helped matters for us! :(

Mate, I won't tell you some of the things I've done or attempted during this quarantine, unless you want me to absolutely embarrass myself! :P

I just hope the peak that has been reached in Europe will cross over to the UK as fast as possible.

Yeah, I saw your reply to Techfan about it... I'm really sorry about your loss. :(

Insane things? Won't ask because I know it'll be embarrassing looking at the description. And as for the peak, I think the UK have it the same as Italy, France and Spain. I think I'll give it a few days and maybe the peak will come.

Yeah, maybe I'll explain after this is all over, but we've collectively been going through a lot of s**t lately! :P

I agree! I think we're a bit behind all those countries as we put in lockdown restrictions later than those countries, so will have to ease them later too.

Where the heck is that Hot 100 article? I might've had a four day weekend, but I've still got to go back to work early tomorrow, haha! :D

I've been playing Madonna's Where's The Party? for an hour now. :) I've been waiting out front...lol.

I know! 7:50pm and still no article! :O

Haha, here's another one! ;)

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mW1dbiD_zDk

Articles have posted later before, but it's not even all that close between Drake & The Weeknd this week anyway.

Besides, while today was a bank holiday here, I don't think it is in the US... :P

Dua vibes

Haha, they're my two favourite female artists of 2020 so far! I somewhat agree with that comparison. :)

Mad World by....Tears For Fears

Correct answer! :)

Love this song!

The cover version hits different

I like the original and cover version!

Hey, did anyone ever answer those last 2 songs of yours? I never figured them out haha.

Aw, 'Better Off Without You' hit ACR? That really deserved to go Top 10! :/

I know! So disappointed it went to ACR this quickly :(

And I am hurt that too PIran
It's one of the biggest dropper this week I want to cry

I wouldn't go as far as crying about it, but I am very disappointed! :(

Anyway good news in South Africa because UK charts always dissapointed https://top40sa.co.za/chart947

Eh, I don't think they're always disappointing, but SA are doing better this week!

I bet you're very happy that 'You're The One' finally topped the singles chart in your country. :)

The best news ever she's only 20 years and earning her first number 1 in South Africa it's huge I wonder who will remove her soon or later but the weekend might reclaim maybe

Oh wow... she's even younger than me then! :D

Awww, thanks! :D

A motivational cat meme for you all to keep us going through quarantine! :D

You’re welcome mate! :D

Did you like 'View' by the way? :)

Yeah I heard it, and that song is so catchy, the chorus makes it sound like a chart hit... let's hope it is! :)

Awesome! Can't wait to see how well it'll do on your own charts. ;)

And I am not one of them lol. It's actually good imo.

I understand that people don't like this new song cause it isn't a serious song, but I think some people really dislike any new stuff from him. I'm a fan, i like the song, but I don't expect an album with this sound in all tracks

I honestly have no problem with Drake, I think some people are just tired of him dominating so much lol.

His music is nice on bassy speakers

I understand it too, but I think, in his head, he really took a break last year and he will try to dominate this year like 2016 or 2018. 2019 was the first year in a while that he didn't drop an album, but he was featured in some hits

But hey, if people keep buying and streaming your stuff then i don't blame him. The music industry still is a business and if he is doing well then he should keep on releasing music.

The Weeknd - Party Monster lol

You got that one! :)

Same opinion here!! AS MUCH AS I LOVE AVA MAX , i cannot stand the overrated DRAKE!! BTW Penny..do have a look in Scandinavian single chart and The Swiss one...AVA MAX is big over there...

Yeah, I know! Ava Max is very successful in Europe! Unfortunately not in the USA. But the country I live in (Germany) is also obsessed with her. Salt at #10, Kings and Queens at #52 and Alone Pt. 2 at #87. :)

She's one of those artists that hit big everywhere else except America and idk why that is.

I can't understand it too. So am I has a gold certification in the USA and didn't chart. It wasn't even bubbling under it. :o

Don't worry about that, Kylie never broke in America and she is a legend of pop music

Salt by Ava Max

Yes!!!

'Silly Watch' by Lil Uzi Vert?

You're right there! :)

I know, right? It was #5 in the mid-week update! :O

Indeed Piran....do you reckon Drake has a chance to claim next week number 1 single? Please do not say YES.....!Have a great week end BTW

Thanks Thierry! You too. :)

Unfortunately, I do think 'Toosie Slide' will go to #1 as soon as 'Blinding Lights' hits ACR, if not sooner.

SONG 1: ⚪ 🔊

SONG 2: 🇫🇷 🏙️ 2 🇩🇪 🏙️

Death Bed by Powfu featuring Beabadoobee!

Thank You Baked Potato lol.

Correct! :D

Mask Off Future

Not that one unfortunately.

No, but good guess.

Correct again! :D

Yes! :D

Royals by Lorde??

Shake It Off by Taylor Swift! :)

That's also correct! ;)

No, Coolocelot got it, but good attempt again.

That's the one! :D

The Weeknd - After Hours lol

Surfaces - Sunday Best

Correct! :D

Nice!

Haha, it is indeed! ;)

How you doing anyway Gordon?

No, but not a bad guess.

Yes! I think you've won again this week. ;)

I’m doing well, listening to music and watching a lot of movies lol. Staying inside! How are you doing Piran?

Hey Gordon! :)

I'm not too bad thanks! I'm actually working from home now, but also doing some jigsaws, watching TV, sunbathing in the garden & going for walks.

Nice! And, of course, listening to Dua lol. I’m so glad she reached #1.

Yeah, very good news on the albums chart over here! ;)

That was #1 on my new personal chart! :D

Oh wow, you really hated 'Toosie Slide' then! :O

Speed of Sound by Coldplay??

Correct! :)

Hey Jstar! :D

I really hope for the same to happen in the US on Monday, but I don't see that happening unfortunately, haha.

It looks like Drake will be number 1 in the U.S especially with billboard publishing that article about it contending for number 1. But honestly who is surprised. Pretty much anything Drake releases has a chance to go number 1 these days.

I think Drake will eventually get to #1 in the UK too, especially when 'Blinding Lights' is back on ACR! :P

I can tolerate that, as long as it's not for a few weeks, haha.

His streaming numbers are still very high in the U.K as well so it probably will reach number 1. But Blinding Lights has had a great run on the U.K charts.

Yeah, one thing I will give Drake is that he's consistent.

Oh well, at least the song's decent, but I think a lot of people will get tired of it fast unfortunately! :P

Hey Jstar! :)

Hey Marco, cool to see you on.

Hope you have a good weekend! Excited for Easter candy? ;p

I'm just excited to be alive lol.

I totally agree. haha :)

Yassss!

I really hope so!

I'm not even sure if they're going to post a chart update this week, since tomorrow is another bank holiday here in the UK.

Such an awesome tune! :D

Wonder what it means for the future 🔮:-)
