Official Singles Chart Top 40 on 20/5/2022

Typical only what to check to see if Abba gold is back in the top ten and Voyage is climbing up again 😔

They almost certainly will but hopefully it's just a temporary bounce and they will both start descending soon.

Oh dear ! Each to there own, i would love to see it back at number one, selling more copies to become the biggest selling Album of all time overtaking Queen in the process.

Thank you for this information Official Charts! :)

Madness

yup ridiculous isnt it

It's all because of Covid, The Jubilee, the cost of living crisis and Partygate - but fear not, Boris will have it sorted as soon he can find someone who knows what they're doing. That will not of course, be anyone at the Official Charts company.

You forgot UFO Disclosure.

amazing!!! he makes rap look so easy. easily my album of the year.

What would you rate it ?

I think it's a lot more mainstream than his other stuff, even more so than , but it's still quite experimental in parts. Overall it's a good listen, my favourites being Die Hard, United In Grief and Purple Hearts with a special mention to Auntie Diaries for its message, however I wouldn't pit it as album of the year.

Alright

at least it wasn’t as bad as Do It To It’s ACR fall from the same position (38 - 99)

spill

That song got old quick

at the bottom like eurovision

Wow 85%!!!! Amazing

Ooops....not so high percentage for Harry

It’s not a bad percentage, but it just happened to be the lowest out of the five albums that I covered. :/

AOTY for me so far. :)

Anyway, thanks for having time and do all these great album reviews, which I absolutely love them!!

No problem!

Glad you like reading through them every month. :)

I can count 5, Hold Me Closer, SloMo, Give That Wolf A Banana, Stefania and Space Man.

same

i like gaga but this one is not her best and definitely not like Berlin hit

Such a good song! It's at 28 in my top 40 this week (the highest eurovision entry aside from Sam Ryder)

I really love Lights Off and Snap, Die Together is really great too.

I agree with you Thierry, Cornelia and Sam have great s9ngs, but Chanel's SloMo from Spain is a banger

yeah tom grennan is underrated

Agree, they wouldn't never won if it was for the war issue

in my opinion, it’s decent

yeah mariah has 19 1s on bbhot 100

unfortunately there won’t be because of his album

Surely in Two weeks we will have a New #1

We will never know but we shall see.

Hi, like you said too many songs in a short time. My favorite was Hold me closer !

Hold me closer and Brividi are wonderful songs... Great taste bud!! 😊

Yep. Such a shame it is still at the top.

Hopefully there will be a new No.1 soon.

it would be amazing if the drake and future collab goes 1

weeks on chart - how long a song has spent on the chart!

Lights off is and amazing dance track!

Yep, I remember Gina's hitting number 1, she was massive in 1996

do you like Kendrick :o

he’s my favourite artist of all time, of course he’d have a takeover ;)

The taste of having Maisie, Maneskin, Dermot, Taylor, Latto, Sam Ryder and Tate all in the Top 10. I'll leave a full comment there later as promised :)

Maisie, Dermot and Taylor are some of my all time favourite artists so the week they all dropped was amazing! Maneskin have been great since eurovision so i love them, Tate is great as we discussed and Latto and Sam are just bangers! Thank you :)

supermodel! this love! big energy! 🔥

all bangers!!!

good to see something to someone and this love here

maybe you are the problem,big energy and this love are bops

agreed

Good top ten!!

yeah bestie

thank you!

Space Man, Lies, Heaven Takes You Home, Everything But You, Remind Me and Free are all great. Haven't heard any of the other Top 10s here what genres are each of them? [I assume Tiesto and the Alesso songs are EDM]

heaven takes you home is the type of dance music i wish to see more of in the charts ;(

everything but you and free are amazing too

Yeah both EDM :)
The new Pale Waves song is a nice slice of indie in a very pop top 10 for me
Blinkie is EDM too!

I love Free, shame it never charted on the official chart

everything but you is such an underrated song

#80 on the sales chart tho :(

its a (somewhat) funny tiktok trend but its not even a real song so i'm glad it hasn't charted

it has been released as a song 😭

that song does my head in

thank god for that 😫

Give That Wolf A Banana is the real Number 1 🥺

Hmm, not a winner for me, but still hilarious, haha. :)

My top 10

1. Lizzo - About Time (=)
2. Dave - Starlight (=)
3. Jax Jones / MNEK - Where Did You Go (=)
4. David Guetta / Hill / Henderson - Crazy What Love Can Do
5. Bad Boy Chiller Crew - BMW (-1)
6. George Ezra - Green Green Grass (up 6)
7. Latto - Big Energy (=)
8. Lost Frequencies / Calum Scott - Where Are You Now (up 1)
9. David Guetta / Joel Corry / Bryson Tiller - What Would You Do? (up 1)
10. Leah Kate - 10 Things I Hate About You (up 1)

Yeah, it's a surprisingly addictive song

I love most of the Top 10. :)

So many ESC new entries!! Hooray!!! Do not agree with the Ukranian and Norwish entries, while I love Space Man and Cornelia! What about Chanel from Spain with SloMo, I think its a banger

‘SloMo’ was #13 this week, so it wasn’t far off making the Top 10 at all. :)

Woww, she wasxso close !

omg 👀

songs

looking forward to it! the 4 singles released from it have been great, especially shes all i wanna be and what would you do, so hopefully she can get another top 40 hit

Maybe she'll include an NFT XD

Feel Like Sh*t has been my favourite of the rollouts so far and with each release there's decline in how much I like them actually lol

i do like feels like sh*t a lot, but i do really love the upbeat ones, shes all i wanna be is actually my song of the year so far and what would you do is my new #1 this week! I've also commented on your latest crownnote chart! :)

Ballads do tend to be my style so I'm not surprised feel like sh*t is my favourite but she's all i wanna be is a really good pop song too. What days do you update your crownnote charts I'll try and comment weekly on them :)

i update on wednesdays/ thursdays if theres a delay! I'll also try and comment weekly on yours too, what day do you update? :)

Fridays for me, usually midday.

ok! thanks!

a surprise ishowspeed feature 🥵🥵🥵

I’m actually so disappointed that he made a somewhat ok song... 🥺

not a big fan of tom grennan, i prefer his 2017 indie-rock stuff, but remind me is a great song 👍

based rating for As It Was tbh

most overrated song of the century

I agree with 1, but not 2.

I can tell you that it is the most overrated song the year in fact. One Dance is probably one of the most overrated songs of the 21st century in the UK.

100%

ur mentioning Drake again :O

the most overrated songs of the century are some of nicki minaj songs from queen like chun li,barbie tingz,barbie dreams,megatron,good form ect are the most overrated songs of the century

Cheese is actually my 52 this week, it was 18 points off entering :D

Great to hear, thank for supporting :D

51 was a duck stole my car which was 14 off

omg ty <3 :D

hey! i saw some people charting it, i was wondering where i could listen?!

On youtube and soundcloud at the moment, spotify coming soon when I hear back from the distributor :)

https://soundcloud.c*m/user-354210400/cheese

https://www.youtube.c*m/watch?v=Aq6hB9Qyv3M&t=12s

perfect thanks!! i'll give it a listen and let you know what i think!

I gave it a listen and i enjoyed it! Its a nice track! catchy groove to it, i could 100% hear it in a club scene of a netflix show!

same, it’s a banging tune. sounds professional for his first try at music production :)

Thank you! Had a lot of fun making it and I'm glad so many people are enjoying it too :)

it really does! can't believe thats your first try! its a very strong start!!

as refreshing as it is to see my chem in the top 40, whoever mastered the song needs to be jailed for war crimes. (fantano’s words, not mine)

i really want to like it, but the mix and master is sh*t 😭

Yeah, the song’s probably not one I’ll revisit, but it’s still cool see them with a Top 40 hit in 2022! 😂

Not the best but somehow still got in. Rock's glacially slow return to the chart nevertheless continues?

Yeah, I guess it’s another win for rock music coming back to the charts! :P

I love that song! R.I.P. Vangelis...you went to Heaven in your Chariot of Fire...

Very inspirational instrumental. :)

A classic of all times

don’t we all? the war is unnecessary

Literally! It’s not doing either side absolutely any favours. :/

Based in your comments, as usual, dear Piran!! war nowadays is never necessary, political leaders must give up on it as an option ...it never solves any issues...

It's rather sad in this ESC edition music came second and politics first ...

I think Ukraine would’ve still had a chance at winning even if it weren’t for the invasion, but as long as there’s a televote, politics will always have some influence in the overall Eurovision results. :/

Exactly! The war is only causing damage to both sides right now. :/

Absolutely agree

Share same thoughts buddy, but I think UK or Spain entry should've won the competition

Are you joking? You being a Latin texting Churchill?? While he was one of the allies with the US to allow military goverments in Latin America? Start reading history buddy!

You are right, Damian... I even thought about it,,,probably I just wanted to highlight the phrase in itself, I should´ve not mention him, but just the meaning of never giving up...sorry about it!

Chanel´s song is simply great, its choreography is spectacular!! yeah, Spain could´ve won, and I already mention that Sam Ryder was (at least for me) The absolute winner with Space Man!!

Kalush Orchestra, wow, that flute performance is epic!! absolutetely loved it!! I think despite the fact of the invasion their song deserved the win.

The flute part was incredible! :O

That's ok, I didn't want to be rude with you, gracias por la aclaración! Saludos!

I agree Gerardo, Chanel had the complete combo, song, look, dance, choreo....she was the winner. It reminded me of Elena Foureira's Fuego being robbed the first place

Yeah! Elena, unforgettable perfect performance, I had forgotten about her, thanks Damian, for bringing her back to me!! 😊

Pal, you were not rude at all, whenever you are expressing a truth the right thing to do is ponder in it, and correct if necessary... but you were and are right about this issue 😇

Your welcome friend!! Greetings!!

Thanks buddy!! 😊😊

Agree, I think Lights off deserved better. Probably being the first act didn't help.

Absolutely agree, excellent performance for the UK this time. You were top 5 of the bottom since a decade ago

Hopefully this won’t be a one-off good performance & we’ve now started a run of successful Eurovision entries! 🤞

I really hope that friend! I've always thought that British pop is the best pop in the world, Swedish pop is so close, but I miss the days when UK charts were full of pop artists and great pop hymns

Both incredible nations for pop!

No wonder they’re two of the most successful countries in Eurovision history. :)

Oh yes, you're right!!

I think I still prefer Embers tbh haha

same lol :)

Well, people say anything could happen on the Top 10. For all we know, Lizzo could take the top spot next week.

i want the new 1 as wait for u by drake and future
