Official Singles Chart Top 40 on 23/4/2021

trash

and mates, lemme know if you have any requests for any hot 100 chart retrospects of any uk acts from back in the day. it don't matter how big the hit was over here, i'll gladly take everyone a trip down hot 100 memory lane *to the best of my knowledge* and find out what happened :D i'm off again this coming weekend and i'll have another hot 100 chart retrospect of another uk act ready ;) talk to you all soon!

oh and if the girls of mis-teeq are out there reading my posts...i in no way want anyone's feelings to be hurt ;). i wanted to give the uk fans an idea on what was going on with the hot 100 chart and u.s. music scene @ the time. nobody's a failure, ok? i've also seen huge u.s. acts like britney spears struggle to get into the hot 100 top 10 back then...and even after awhile usher himself couldn't notch anymore hot 100 top 10 hits.

so i just wanted to clear that up! and same for any future uk acts i do u.s. hot 100 chart retrospects on...i don't think ANYONE is a failure! i just don't want mis-teeq to feel bad or have any regrets....there were also huge selling u.s. acts back then that couldn't compete with usher in the hot 100 top 10...so just wanted to tell the girls that :) i totally dig their music and couldn't be more happier and prouder of them for all their success in the uk and in europe. the u.s. is just too hard sometimes to make it for many international acts. esp. pre-social media and pre-internet.

so 'scandalous' peaks @ #35 on the hot 100 chart for the wk of 7/10/2004....here's the link: https://www.billboard.c*m/charts/hot-100/2004-07-10

now what was going on this wk here in the states is usher! as you can see he has the #2, 3 & 7 positions. his #7 song *yeah* was a huge #1 smash and you couldn't miss him on the radio. in 2004 billboard still hadn't made the comments section...it's too bad, cuz i could've passed along some ideas and suggestions for mis-teeq. see, just like today, when an artist is dominating the hot 100 top 10 with 2+ spots, it'll be awhile before they fall out of it ;)...but they won't be in there forever. as soon as usher falls out of the top 10, would've been a better time to release 'scandalous' in the u.s. or even a re-release ;)

it's too bad mis-teeq never went on trl back then...i personally didn't know who they were or heard this single too much on u.s. radio. i also would've suggested they go on the disney channel and nickelodean and try to connect with the u.s. teen and pre-teen market. *and if they did, i would've had them go on repeatedly!* so to me, this was bad timing...cuz after usher's first single...he's never gonna leave the top 10 for about 1 year...his 2nd single *burn* will go in the top 10 as well as the 3rd single 'confessions' while 'yeah' is still in the top 10. even @ the end of this year, he'll have a big hit with alicia keys' 'my boo'....but again, all momentums cool down and the top 10 will continue to fluxuate. and all you had to do was follow the hot 100 chart for about a month to see usher dominate and stay put in the top 10.

but congrats to mis-teeq for achieving great success in the uk. and scoring a top 40 hit over here is no easy feat.... usher! LOL! but i do love 'scandalous' and maybe, if their label tried one more time the following year after usher's momentum cooled down, maybe the results could've been different.

hey what's up mates! so sorry i couldn't do my mis-teeq retrospect last time *had to upgrade my cable boxes*. ok, so mis-teeq had one hit over here in the states 'scandalous' (which i've been totally diggin'!!! and very addicted to it). let's take a look back on the hot 100 chart to find out why this wasn't a bigger hit over here ;) and thanks again to thierry hieron *sorry mate if i misspelled* for recommending that track to me ;)

'scandalous' enters the hot 100 chart on 5/22/2004 @ #82-68-61-51-50-43-39-35-peak*-40-45-52-62 (and then falls off the chart not too long afterwards)

ok, so like most songs, 'scandalous' enters @ the bottom of the chart and works it's way up (very normal back then, i've seen destiny's child back in the day go thru the same thing)...and it takes about 7 wks to crack the top 40. so what that tells me, the top 10-20 just isn't budging! and/or 'scandalous' just can't make a bigger impact on u.s. radio. it stays in the top 40 for about 3 wks but starts falling down the chart. i'll put up the hot 100 chart *hopefully!* for the peak week in my next post.

The Top 40 just seems to get Worse and Worse as the time goes by. Too much Boring R&B dominated by Auto Tune. We need some Rock / Indie back so we do.

Happy to see "Summer 91" climbing, Hope it reaches top 40 :) Love that song!

EDM 10 Charts (My Personal Charts) 23/4/2021

10. (-1) NOTD & Catello - Nobody.

9. (-1) Rudimental, Morgan & TIKE Ft. Digga D - Be The One.

8. (+2) Don Diablo & JLV Ft. John K - Problems.

7. (-2) Tiësto - The Business.

6. (-) Riton, Nightcrawlers, Mufasa & Hypeman - Friday

5. (+2) Ofenbach & Lagique - Wasted Love

4. (-) Nathan Evans - Wellerman (220Kid & Billian Ted Remix)

3. (-) HVME - Goosebumps

2. (-) Meduza & Dermot Kennedy - Paradise

1. (-) Shane Codd - Get Out My Head

My Head & My Heart still at No. 19 it's like the 4th week in a row. TBH, the song did also peak at No 19 in Switzerland so.. 🤷

Once again the UK has better taste than US! Most of this entire top ten is a 8 or higher!

Who the is Tom Greenan?? His voice is immaculate!! That song Little bit of love is a 10 at first listen! his voice sends shivers down my spine!

I don’t know why but I feel like ‘Starstruck’ is going to be a really big hit. Also, hopefully with the remix being released yesterday ‘Save Your Tears’ can finally make the top 10!!

Dance Monkey will spent at least 3 years on chart. Blinding lights 4.

lllllllllol Rag n Bone Man Duet with Pink Falls out ,Yet the Whole Top 10 Hardly moves Terrible

Aurora in top 40 💕

Beautiful Mistakes for Top 40 next week 😄😄

Somebody stop "Latest Trends" from dropping

Hey guys, nice to see "Kiss Me More"still in the top 10, I feel like this song was a salvage for Doja & Sza after "Streets" & "Good Days" didn't make top 10

#LeavetheDoorOpen

HEAT jumping from #94 to #69 gives me hope that, with the weather picking up as we head into summer, Paul Woolford will get a much deserved second Top 40 hit. I'm also hoping that Noizu will break into the Top 40 with Summer '91!

Top 10 of the year so far - week 17:
1 (1) Tiesto - The Business 1062 (994)

2 (2) Kid Laroi - Without You 1006 (972)

3 (3) Olivia Rodrigo - Drivers License 965 (927)

4 (5) Anne-Marie/KSI/DFA - Don't Play 956 (898)

5 (7) Nathan Evans - Wellerman 953 (883)

6 (4) Shane Codd - Get Out Of My Head 925 (909)

7 (6) Meduza/Dermot Kennedy - Paradise 905 (892)

8 (8) Travis Scott/HVME - Goosebumps 872 (839)

9 (10) Riton/Nightcrawlers/Mufasa/Hypeman - Friday 868 (797)

10 (11) Weeknd - Save Your Tears 838 (783)

Weeknd overtakes himself to get a 2nd top 10 of the year within a month. All 10 are still in the top 75 and all 6 hits to be on chart every week of the year are too. They are (in order of chart impact):

Kid Laroi - Without You (2)

Shane Codd - Get Out Of My Head (6)

Meduza/Dermot Kennedy - Paradise (7)

Weekend - Blinding Lights (12)

Dua Lipa - Levitating (13)

Joel Corey/MNEK - Head & Heart (15)

Loving the gains for positions 53,54 & 55 all are growing loads on me and rising, I'll even give a little credit to 56 but it's not quite on par yet with the other 3

time to do this again. i haven’t heard much of the top 100 as i’ve been so obsessed with aj tracey’s new album and “flower boy” by tyler the creator so i’ll do this based off the tracks i’ve actually heard.

the entire top 100:

Is Wellerman going on ACR soon, it's so annoying now

Shy Away massive drop 😭

I reckon Deja Vu and Save Your Tears will hit top 10 next week, and RAPSTAR and Wellerman will drop out

Finally, ‘Let’s Go Home Together’ joined ‘Little Bit Of Love’ in the Top 10 after all!

Most people I know prefer the latter, but I honestly think both are equally as amazing, haha.

It looks like ‘Deja Vu' will probably make it here next week & I’m also very excited about the possibility of ‘Good Without’ getting there soon too!

Is Save Your Tears on ACR?

AVA MAX stuck at 19 for 5 weeks!! that can't be real.. i really hope she will claim a new peak this week!!

Super excited to see TOM GRENNAN having 2 Top 10 this week with new peak for both singles: yippee!! And finally MIMI WEBB is climbing back the chart!!

Evening everyone! Hope you all have a wonderful week end..

What a good week! LGHT is now in the top 10, Bed has reached 3, Heat Waves is top 20, this is fantastic!

Honestly, in a week as quiet as this one, I think the thing I’m happiest about is Aurora getting another Top 40 hit, haha.

‘Blinding Lights’ is back in the region again & it’s been out for nearly 18 months now! :O

Ava at #19 again! :P

‘Bed’ is now a Top 3 hit! 😍
