Official Singles Chart Top 40 on 29/1/2021

This forum can't seem to go an hour without something happening

I never knew people rub this website

I like wellerman way more than I should and it's now playing on loop in my head

how many downvotes can this comment get? :)

Mr Brightside's longevity is absolutely insane

Man I shouldn't be up this late but I should be used to it

Hey guys

RIP Captain Tom Moore! 🙏

Words can’t even begin to describe what an amazing human being he was to us all. He will be dearly missed by everybody here! 😭

Let’s all learn from his heroic actions & be kind to one another! ❤️

RIP CAPTAIN TOM MOORE 🙏

Great new single from Rag'n'Bone Man "All You Ever Wanted" .
Really hope he can make No 1 on Friday. Quality Music.

good afternoon all...

i've been following this site for a few months, but never actually commented here, although since so many people are reviewing the charts right now, i thought i'd give it a go myself.

hope you will enjoy. :)

so, "drivers license" is still at number 1 with an insane lead. i really like the song personally, but i hope that overplayment on the radio doesn't ruin a really good song. that's what happened with "blinding lights" last year. :(

"wellerman" being the highest new entry shows that really anything can happen in the charts in 2021! i didn't mind the original, but i think the remix by 220kid gives it far more life and energy, so it's good to see that version get credited here.

i'm definiteiy rooting for "good days" to go top 10 soon too! sza has been making some incredible rnb for a while now, so it's so satisfying to see her finally get a solo hit in the uk. :)

as for the other new entries, "back to basic" seemed okay on first listen but will have to grow on me, "skin" is very well-written but i don't like the drama between olivia and sabrina, "lo vas a olvidar" surprised me since i didn't know that billie eilish knew any spanish, just a shame that it bores me, sorry. :/

"friday" has an addicting beat despite it being repetitive, "regardless" is very groovy and it sounds like a jax jones song more than a rudimental one... i prefer "be the one" though.

finally, i'm very impressed to see glass animals get their first ever top 40 hit with "heat waves"! any reason why it's becoming so big now? did it go viral on tiktok or something? either way, it just makes want to have summer back right away, lol. ;)

stay happy and healthy, friends. :)

Have an amazing week everybody! ❤️

omg why is sweater weather still here

upvote if you love bts

whoopty is underrated

STREAM DYNAMITE AND LIFE GOES ON

skin at #28 is a grower i hope it climbs

all girls are the same needs to go top 40, its such an amazing song :D

I hope a rock revival happens soon it would be refreshing to have a hit rock song again

somebody take that song off of #1

screw it, i’ll do points for the top 40.

amazing (5 points): 1, 11, 12, 13, 15, 18, 19, 21, 31, 37, 38
good (4 points): 4, 5, 6, 10, 17, 20, 22, 24, 25, 26, 30, 34, 40
okay (3 points): 2, 8, 33, 36
meh (2 points): 3, 27, 28
bad (1 point): 32, 35, 39
awful (0 points): 7, 9, 14, 23, 29

total: (5x11)+(4x13)+(3x4)+(2x3)+(1x3)+(0x5) = 128/200 (64%)

I hope the kid Laroi gets to number 1, that ‘without you’ track is so good!!!

It started with ‘The Longest Johns’ last week at 37, now we’ve got the Nathan Evans and 220 kid & Billon Ted remix of Wellerman. What a journey for the famous sea shanty song

Oh yeah, RIP SOPHIE.

What a great and innovative musician she was, OIL OF EVERY PEARL’S UN-INSIDES is such an amazing album.

Paradise - Dermot Kennedy was a niceee entry...

Does anyone here know why Duncan Laurence is back in the charts with Arcade?

Baby shark is still in the top 100 so im relieved🤣

High school musical movies + flirty sexting + stalkerish behaviour + JD and AL=lifestyle

Terrible, terrible chart. Utterly dead creatively. There must be a way to open it up to a better variety of tunes than this endless stream of hideous anymous rap and r'n'b. Come on, people, wake up!!!

Can't see how anyone could rate any of these song 10 out of 10. By doing so you are saying they are some of the greatest ever songs our ears have EVER had the pleasure of listening to and we will be singing these songs still in 30+ years from now. :D

This is how I would rate them.

10. Whoopty – CJ (1/10)
9. 34+35 – Ariana Grande (2/10)
8. Afterglow – Ed Sheeran (5/10)
7. Anyone – Justin B***er (2/10)
6. Sweet melody – Little Mix (5/10)
5. Paradise – Dermot Kennedy & Meduza (3/10)
4. Don’t play – KSI & Anne Marie (2/10)
3. Wellerman – Nathan Evens, 220 KID, Billen Ted (3/10)
2. Without You – The Kid Laroi (3/10)
1. Drivers licence – Olivia Rodrigo (3/10)

and finally a previously mentioned song I am rating just as reference.
I'm Gonna Be - The Proclaimers (6/10)

Top 10 of the year so far:
1 (1) Little Mix - Sweet Melody 358
2 (2) Ed Sheeren - Afterglow 347
3 (3) CJ - Whoopty 340
4 (5) Kid Laroi - Without You 334
5 (6) Ariana Grande 34+35 329
6 (7) Medusa / Dermot Kennedy - Paradise 323
6 (4) Shane Codd - Get Out Of My Head 323
8 (8) Miley Cyrus / Dua Lipa - Prisoner 300
9 (9) Taylor Swift - Willow 285
10 (10) KSI/Craig David/Digital Farm Animals - Really Love 280

10 (16) Justin Beiber - Anyone 280

There’s honestly nothing stopping Olivia Rodrigo. She’s miles ahead and I can’t see anyone catching her anytime soon at all. I’m not complaining tho as it’s an amazing song! 😃

Mr Brightside will outlive us all

I'm still being naive enough to dream that "Paradise" will make it to #1. And I am kinda mad that "Good Days" has yet to reach the top ten.

"Friday" needs another boost.

Also while expected it's disappointing to see 'It's A Sin' absent from the Top 100. I like it more every time I listen to it, really great cover.

Nice number 2❤❤. Number 3 is stuck in my head

WAIT APRICOTS IS NEARLY IN THE TOP 40???

Really surprised, it dosen’t sound anything like the rest of the EDM that’s charting right now.

Really hope Bicep can hit the top 40 next week after netting their first top 10 album this week (only just missed out on number 1 by the sounds of it!).

You already know what this is:

1: Driver’s License (4/10)

Wellerman is actually surprisingly good lol

Wellerman is just 60 sales short from #2 lol

KSI Stans Upvote me If You want Ksi to be number one

I didnt expect fredo to be more dominant on sales than streams

SABRINA CARPENTER only at number 28!! Amazing song...

And finally DERMOT KENNEDY is getting his first number 5 single!! Yippee!! I have been waiting for so long to see that!!

Who would’ve thought that this time last week, we’d have new entries for a club remix of sea shanty anthem & Billie Eilish singing in Spanish? :D

I certainly didn’t, but I’m not exactly complaining about either of them being here, haha.

Mufasa has to climb!

I think it’s kind of ironical how RAYE’s last Top 40 hit was ‘Secrets’ with Regard, but now she’s on a song called ‘Regardless’! :P

Very disappointed to see 'Wellerman' beaten to #2 tbh! It was pretty obvious from the get go that Olivia was on track for another week at the top and 'Drivers Licence' is a decent song but I cannot stand 'Without You'!

Aww, wanted Wellerman to do well and go top 2, but I guess The Kid Laroi is kinda unstoppable at the minute sadly - I don't really like him, although Without You is probably a strong 6/10 from me

‘Friday’ is in the Top 40! 🥳

Top 20 for this absolute banger next week? ;)

Chuffed to see ‘Heat Waves’ & ‘Regardless’ both made it in too, haha.

Please let ‘Good Days’ go Top 10 soon!

It’s such a grower, haha. :)
