ACTUAL Chart Review 02/08/24

[insert a joke that sets up the script for this review here]

Isn't the summer grand? The endless heat-filled weekdays, the lack of school to put you off your M&Ms, and the feeling that you're never one holiday away from a major sporting event. Yes, the Olympics have been blaring from my TV (who needs a Discovery+ account when you have an Amazon Fire stick?) and I've been loving every minute of it. Well, apart from the same-old countries doing well, the whole world going mental anytime Israel do anything, and a situation where you can't go 5 minutes on Twitter without someone with a single-digit IQ raving on about The Last Supper getting massacred. Listen, geezers. No one asked you to sit through an opening ceremony with Lady Gaga, Zinedine Zidane and the Minions in it. The last thing you should be complaining about is an overgrown Smurf with his "reliable" out.

But I'm here to take a break from rooting for the likes of Hong Kong and Guatemala to state that Radio 1 wasting 80 hours of my life with annoying dance cloggers like NewEra and Majestic is not ideal. And also, the Top 40, after I sacked it off yesterday. It doesn't take a genius to determine who ended up on the porcelain throne this week, Sabrina Carpenter continuing to prove that nobody is allowed to whisk her away to the Tower of London for crimes against British music. So it's yet another week for Please Please Please, meanwhile Eminem is also untouchable on the albums as well, his "I'm Dead, Honest" effort snatching a 3rd week at the top in the face of every female superstar you care to name. But there's more to the charts than this ya doofus.

Thus, speculation has carried over to who will end up victorious at the end of all this tomfoolery in the next few weeks. You could be forgiven for betting all your life savings on BIRDS OF A FEATHER by Billie Eilish, considering it's finally usurped Sabrina at the Spotify top spot, but nope. She slips to 3 today, to accompdate the kind of song that will be sang by our descendants WAY past our funeral dates, the kind of hit that will aggravate certain people on this forum (you know who you are). And most importantly, it's probably not even peaked yet. So salutations to Chappell Roan for receiving another dollop of praise from my HQ, as Good Luck, Babe is now sitting pretty at No.2. Just a shame that, knowing my luck, she probably won't even reach the promised land in the end.

Given how static the Top 10 has ended up by this point, you would think I'd give the latest newcomer to the best-sellers a chance to show us what it takes. Except when that track is Kisses by BL3SS, CamrinWatsin, bbyclose, and probably about 20 uncredited writers that we'll never hear from again because the TikTok generation are very picky when it comes to success. For every Mimi Webb or PinkPantheress, there's Kenya Grace. 21KGoldn. Ckay. Belters Only. GAYLE. I could go on all day. So take your pity points guys, 'cause I desperately hope to never hear from you lot again. The fact it's climbed to 7 is hardly my cup of tea, and I just know it's headed for the Top 3. In a dull world, anyway. Which I live in. And I hate it.

So yeah, the future of music is in some horrible hands, but maybe Charli XCX can come and save us? What with 360 and Apple knocking on the glass ceiling, anything is possible. Jimin only slips to 11, certainly better than the 29 he was positioned in on Monday, but you can blame the army of fangirls and their multiple accounts for that stability. Oh, and JADE falls to 13. Which is fine, I guess. Ignore the fact her Spofity hopes have gone to seed, and you have probably the most successful solo career from the Little Mix girls. Potentially. Don't get your hopes up.

Considering I couldn't care less about uploading this yesterday, I'll fly through the 3 new hits as if my life doesn't depend on it. Post Malone's 3rd effort in his country extravaganza lands at 26, doing better than his last collab which is all well and good, but this one has Luke Combs on it so maybe I should stop giving him false praise. Central Cee is back. AGAIN. And I genuinely couldn't tell you what gen z luv sounded like for the purposes of this review. And I've just listened to it. Maybe there's a good reason he's limped to 34. And at No.36, Calvin Harris takes this week's award for "Bottlejob Of The Day" by a massive landslide. Maybe it's because he keeps collaborating with Ellie Goulding, or maybe it's due to the slight issue that it's so workalike it could give Paul Weller a run for his money, but Free is just, SO BORING, that I'm not surprised it's flopped.

It's gonna rocket up the charts now I've said that, isn't it. 😰

But don't fret, folks. Because at No.30 is the latest in a long, long line of old songs suddenly getting a second wind this year and becoming hit-worthy all over again. You know how Stray Kidz roped Ryan Reynolds & Hugh Jackman for the video to their hit from last week? (down to 68 today, which is better than I thought.) Well, yeah, there's a good reason for that. Deadpool & Wolverine has been inescapable the last few weeks, and no, it's not because one of them owns a football club that's marginally better than Mansfield Town. Inevitably, the soundtrack is gonna have a few shocks and gasps, and who better to lead us to Nostalgia Land than *NSYNC. Remember those lot. They were the (somewhat boring, thinking about it) boyband that Justin Timberlake used to be in before he starting upsetting Britney Spears supporters and making songs that went on forever and ever (Mirrors, I'm looking at you). Bye Bye Bye originally reached No.3 in the heady days of 2000, so to see it suddenly rocket up the streaming charts and land at 30 today is nothing short of miraculous. It's like Florence + the Machine all over again.

Outside the 40 and we have newbies from Sonny Fodera, Gigi Perez, Charli XCX, mgk, Aitch and D-Block Europe, Pharrell Williams, Gordo, and Tom Odell ruining the legacy of Black Friday for anyone and everyone. So onto next week I guess, and one of the above has duetted with Billie Eilish on a remix of one of their songs. Take a wild guess. And no, that pun wasn't intended. Honest. They'll be competing against Mimi Webb, Mura Masa, FLO, Sub Focus, Polo G and Khalid for chart supremacy, meanwhile over on the album chart, Jack White's surprise thingy he put out for no reason has to square up and brace itself. Because Kanye West is back with the 2nd of his VULTURES schtick, and I don't wanna be here for the fallout again. Except I will be. Too-da-loo.

(P.S. I can confirm from the early Spotify updates that some very funny things are about to happen for the ladies that made stuff like Ily2, ilomilo, and L'AMOUR DE MA VIE. Safe to say, here come the girls.)

i think sabrina is gonna do what justin bieber almost 10 years ago

Surely Chappell Roan has to be number 1 next week! Jade will hopefully move up now that she has been added on the Radio 1 playlist but I really don't like the new remix that has just come out.

this week, pop music was in the news for the wrong reason, because recently a lunatic went into a taylor swift dance class with a knife and left three people killed and seven more injured. not only that but these people were literal kids. my thoughts lay with the families of these victims, as this will undeniably be a tough time for all of them.

the responses to this, however, were absolutely shocking. these families and witnesses are not only in devastation but the place they call home is now subject to riots on streets flooded with armed police, and the people rioting have been fed through misinformation and a fascist agenda. the murderer was identified as a 17yo rwandan, but there was no indication that he was muslim, yet people started attacking mosques. for the racist pieces of sh*t that decided to willingly attack a town that’s already in outcry over the loss of three little girls’ lives, i hope you know there’s a special place in h3ll waiting for you. you’ve been brainwashed and fed misinformation.

music is not just a sound, but an expression. it ties into our emotions and identity which no one should be shamed for. we shouldn’t have to picture young people being killed for the music they appreciate, not only because that’s downright ridiculous, but because of the racist outcry that just happened. stay safe out there, and once again, rest in peace to the three young lives that were taken in southport. 💔

Chart Review except it isn't 02/08/24

I can't be bothered posting my overlooking of the UK Top 40 today. Not that I caught the heebie-jeebies or suffered mental health issues of any sort, but because the Olympics are FAR too important. Who wouldn't want to watch Tajikistan win a medal? My review will be posted tomorrow though, so stick around for that if you wanna see me run around in my back garden at the sight of Chappell Roan being No.2, BL3SS and CamrinWatsin giving me PTSD, Calvin and Ellie flopping to high heaven, and also *NSYNC returning to inspire childhoods all over again thanks to Deadpool & Wolverine. Oh, and Sabrina's No.1 again. Not like you'd notice.

Here's my rankings and new hits though. They won't be posted with the review tomorrow however.

AMAZING TIER:

Chappell Roan [2], Charli XCX [12] (What do you mean she's 32 years old!?), Chappell Roan [23], Shaboozey [10] (So ACR hasn't worked then. 😅)

GREAT TIER:

Charli XCX [14], Bruce Springsteen [35], Kendrick Lamar [9], *NSYNC [30] (I'm guessing Fergie's Glamorous and I'm With You by Avril Lavigne were too obvious to chart then.), Sabrina Carpenter [8]

GOOD TIER:

Chappell Roan [38], Billie Eilish [3], Dominic Fike [40], Adam Port/Stryv/Everyone On Planet Earth [18], Sabrina Carpenter [1], Taylor Swift [27], Jordan Adetunji [15] (A remix with the actual Kehlani dropped today, if anyone was wondering.)

OK TIER:

Eminem [6] (I can't be bothered saying he has the No.1 album this week.), Central Cee ft. Lil Baby [17], The Blessed Madonna/Clementine Douglas [25], Post Malone & Morgan Wallen [28], Ice Spice/Central Cee [21], Noah Kahan [32], Teddy Swims [24]

AVERAGE TIER:

Coldplay [31], Calvin Harris & Ellie Goulding [36] (Ouch. That's all.), Myles Smith [4], Central Cee [34] (He's got 27 hits and you'd barely recognise him if you saw him on the street.)

DISLIKE TIER:

Dasha [5] (Oh, so NOW it peaks. Typical, eh?), The Kid LAROI [33], JADE [13], Post Malone & Luke Combs [26] (The inevitable collaboration with prog-rockers Yes is only a few years away, gentlemen. 😓), Hozier [19]

BAD TIER:

Benson Boone [16], BL3SS/CamrinWatsin/bbyclose [7], Jimin [11] (Man, iTunes can get lost.), Majestic/The Jammin Kid/Celine Dion [39]

AWFUL TIER:

Benson Boone [22], David Guetta & OneRepublic [20] (Who is actually still streaming this? Apart from Capital listeners, the fans and the bots?), NewEra [37], Teddy Swims [29]

NEW ONES (and other funny stuff):

Post Malone & Luke Combs - Guy For That [26] (Yeah this isn't worth it. My hatred of Luke Combs ain't stoppin' now, chaps.)

*NSYNC - Bye Bye Bye [30] (Their best song in my opinion, but it sounds better right now than it did in 2000. Probably because it seemed generic back then.)

Central Cee - gen z luv [34] (As unidentifiable as a bottle of Pepsi. NEXT.)

Calvin Harris & Ellie Goulding - Free [36] (Yeesh, this could've gone better. Their worst collab yet, and for good reason. It's formulaic as all heck.)

Sonny Fodera/Jazzy/D.O.D. - Somedays [42] (This time last year Sonny Fodera was gearing up for Top 10 supremacy. His new one is kinda bad though.)

Gigi Perez - Sailor Song [53] (This guy's trying to be Noah Kahan, I can tell before I even listened to it. I just have a hunch, y'know?)

Charli XCX - 365 [63] (It may be 360 with different lyrics, but boy is it ACE.)

mgk/Jelly Roll - Lonely Road [67] (I preferred him when he was making Misery Businees soundalikes.)

Aitch/D-Block Europe - Gold Mine [71] (Nowhere near the level of success that UFO had, and for good reason. It's LAME.)

Pharrell Williams - Double Life [80] (Ah yes, the traditional Despicable Me/Pharrell collab. At least it's faring better than his contributions to the 3rd film.)

Gordo & Drake - Sideways [85] (Didn't he produce Massive that one time?)

Tom Odell & Lost Frequencies - Black Friday (Pretty Like The Sun) [88] (So much for me ever liking the original again.)

here’s a dozen songs ive been listening to this past week because i don’t wanna make personal charts anymore:

• honey im home - destroy boys
• kaisarion (live at the forum 2023) - ghost
• apple - charli xcx
• set it off - audioslave
• head cheerleader - pom pom squad
• nikes - frank ocean
• roadkill - vial
• fade into you - mazzy star
• becca - the sukis
• velvet ring - big thief
• obsessed - olivia rodrigo
• (you) on my arm - leith ross

my music takeaway for the night: 🥡

• please please please can we get a break from sabrina? she’s overexposed at this point, and the song she’s at the top with is so mid. i hope chappell roan doesn’t get smacked with acr before she hits the summit, because it’s looking closer than ever rn.
• kisses being a top 10 hit is an excruciating move for our charts. in a year where no mana released the best edm album of the decade so far, why did we have to make an edm song with all its worst parts a hit? if you want a good song with the same name, stream kisses by slowdive instead <3
• brat summer is well and truly in full force, as not only are apple and 360 edging ever closer to the top 10, but charli xcx has only gone and secured the FIRST billie eilish feature ever for a remix of guess. there’s no doubt that will debut high next week. also, “charli likes boys but she knows i’d hit it” is such a mood lol
• and 365 has also scooped a debut which leads me to this - charli, PLEASEEE drop the shygirl & easyfun remix!! don’t think i haven’t heard it!! that drop is unreal
• also nice to see kehlani on the rise! i’m really liking it rn
• i am really looking forward to seeing the new deadpool & wolverine movie, and the fact it’s caused a nostalgic pop classic to re-enter is awesome.
• even though i really don’t like post’s country era, guy for that is my favourite of the three singles from f-1 trillion and it’s the only one i can listen to. i’d probably say it’s a strong 5/10. while we’re on the topic of luke combs though, i surprisingly liked ain’t no love in oklahoma 👀 can’t wait to see twisters very soon!
• we did not ask for another central cee debut 🫣
• i’m not the biggest fan of the kid laroi but nights like this is such an ethereal song, i really like it and it’s been added to my monthly playlist. didn’t see that coming haha
• im surprised bruce springsteen is having some longevity, but its welcome! same goes for smalltown boy (like that one a lot too) but i dont know the reason behind that song’s resurgence
• i love you, im sorry is my favourite song off the new gracie abrams album, so to see it rise is amazing
• look, i haven’t heard the jimin song yet, but the fact he occupied the entire top 8 on itunes with different remixes at one point makes for a very saturated number 4 peak
• on the albums side of things, ghost dropped a live album which is obviously amazing because their songs were MADE for arenas. the fact this and blur were both robbed of the top spot by a modern eminem album is shameful. elsewhere, porter robinson dropped an album that was quite different to what i expected based on the singles but still awesome, and ice spice dropped a project that’s so full of “bars” about p00p they sum up the album quality. a VERY bad album. it’s kinda telling how ice spice’s one good song this year wasn’t even her own song (fisherrr remix).

have a good weekend everyone! (and hope you’ll be streaming the new destroy boys album on the 9th!) 💞

‘Kisses’ is heading in the wrong direction. ‘DNA (Loving You)’ did this sound so much better, so the former outpeaking the latter is really disappointing! 😩

Oh well, at least ‘Guy For That’ got a decent placement (probably my favourite of the three recent Post Malone country songs) and I’m pleasantly surprised that *NSYNC are back in the Top 40 with an absolute classic.

Top 40 Rankings: https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/795fd2d723a652d0e1ad94170a6952c4943a433e7eb19dd4393a0178eb41d12d.jpg

I’m surprised ‘Free’ didn’t debut higher. Hopefully it’ll climb in the weeks ahead now that the summer holidays have started. It may not be on the same level as Calvin and Ellie’s other collabs but I still love it! ❤️

Speaking of addictive dance anthems, I’m rooting for ‘Somedays’ to eventually get into the Top 40. :)

It’s looking like we could see a Top 10 hit (maybe even two) from Charli with this new era. Would be awesome to see ’360’ and ‘Apple’ both make it! 😊

‘365’ debuting is good too, even if I’d personally have preferred ‘Rewind’ or ‘Talk Talk’.

‘Austin’ is definitely the slow burner of the year in terms of chart success. 17th consecutive week in the Top 10 but its first in the Top 5.

Kind of wish it would go on ACR soon though. The overplay really got me with this one. :/

I hope Sabrina’s takeover doesn’t result in lots of other amazing artists getting denied the top spot, especially when it’s with one of her weaker singles for me.
