here we go again with the olivia rodrigo thing.

first, we saw drivers license drop out to let traitor in, then traitor dropped out to let drivers license back in, then vice versa.

then we saw deja vu get put on acr to allow favourite crime to enter the charts, thus knocking out deja vu.

this week, jealousy jealousy knocks favourite crime out. this three songs rule is an absolute joke and should be removed. olivia rodrigo has proved that this rule doesn’t work.

have a great week everyone btw! 🧡

I am not sure if Ed Sheeran's fifth studio album will have a mini album bomb. It would be a shame if it will experience the same thing as the No.6 Collaborations Project did.

I hope 'You Right' will re-enter the charts soon and reach a new peak.

I agree, Ain’t Sh*t is close to ACR so it should re-enter in 2 weeks.

No, we can’t lose ‘Mirror’ this soon! 😭

‘Life Goes On’ got really unlucky with it peaking one place below the Top 40. :/

Next week is going to be one of the worst we’ve had in ages. That’s including the mini Dave album bomb. So many good songs like I Wanna Be Your Slave, Beggin, By Your Side, Heartbreak Anthem, Dumb Love, Higher Power, Summer 91 & Life Goes On going on ACR. The only upside is that Out Out (hopefully) will chart.

Sigrid's Mirror is so good!! How does it didn't make the top 40???

Why ?? It hasn't declined. Only fluctuated over the past few months...

I’m well annoyed. Like it climbed SEVEN, to a new peak. And then they’re going to do the song like this. It’s pathetic.

That means. It won't make it to the top 40 ??

A few weeks ago i would have expected the amazing MIMI WEBB to easily claim a second Top 20 this year with the perfect pop single "DUMB LOVE"...What happened?! I mean the single is top notch, the video is amazing but she never got higher than her 12 position entry: so unfair!!

avatar

thierry henon

ANNE MARIE "OUR SONG" should have easily been a Top 10!! Can't believe it only peaked at 13!!

Anyone heard of LIZZO brand new single? Loving it!! Not her best single but still a great song and even so i can't stand cardi b..her verse is sublime! Welcome back LIZZO: 2 years away was too long!!

avatar

🧡 oliviasnoodles 🍜

2

yes, i heard it just before i left to go on holiday.

it’s so nice to see lizzo return, even if the song isn’t her best like you said. wasn’t expecting the cardi feature but her verse was decent enough. hopefully the song grows on me further. have an awesome week!

avatar

thierry henon

2

I do agree with you..As much as i despise cardi b, her verse is quite nice and i just love the video..do hope the single makes it to the Top 5 in the USA..she has more success there than in europe...i wonder why as she is so talented and a free spirit! How was your holidays by the way or are you still enjoying it? take care.

avatar

🧡 oliviasnoodles 🍜

thanks thierry! based on what i’ve seen two years ago, it definitely seems like she’s more successful in america, however it’s set for a top 20 debut here as the first look shows.

thanks thierry! i’m nearly home now, my short holiday was decent. :)

a new peak for DOJA CAT "NEED TO KNOW"..So hopefully next week she will claim another Top 20!! Yippee!!

It is next week, finally.

BEGGING by MANESKIN was so close to reach the Top 5 like I WANNA BE YOUR SLAVE! That band is so talented and so deserves a number 1 single!!

avatar

thierry henon

If i am right LITTLE MIX with the powerful HEARTBREAK ANTHEM has claimed her 12th consecutive week into the Top 10? I do believe it is now her longest reign single into the Top 10...Love that single!!

On ACR now :(

Over the moon to see BECKY HILL claiming another Top 5 this week! I really didn't expect her great new single to reach the top 5 that fast!! So looking forward to the release of her new album!!

As much as i dislike justin bieber, i really didn't expect to like his new song STAY with the talented KID LAROI: very catchy song but far too short: not even 2mn40s!

I’m so f***ing sick of all of you. Piran is practically schizophrenic at this point, and goes ‘oh I can’t handle this I want to kill myself’ the second anyone fights or changes their tone.

•Mat is a fickle, short tempered bozo who acts like what he says has to go and everyone else is always wrong

•Ben has lied to us so many times and yet you invite him back time and time again. He impersonated Frank and sent you all n*des of men and also Selena gomez, and then blamed me axing me out of this. You said you wouldn’t invite him back, he said he didn’t want to come back. Guess what. He comes back. Fast forward another month, he impersonates frank again on Disqus. You said you wouldn’t invite him back, he said he didn’t want to come back. Guess what. He comes back.

•Ocelot has no trouble insulting other artists but the second Dillon said he didn’t like Olivia Rodrigo, Ocelot called him a ‘Slimy evil c*nt’

You can’t keep blaming all of your fights and stuff on Frank. As much as I hate the guy, I think I’d take him over you lot. Your server is a mess. It’s you guys that make this community no fun, not the trolls. Dillons chill tho. I like him (even if he can’t rap. Looking forward to the upcoming EP tho)

Piran

I never said that at all, but if you want to keep making up lies about everybody that nobody is going to believe, then go ahead, as it's only your time that you're wasting. :)

Another thing, don't you dare bring Mateusz into this, but he's been the peacemaker in all of this & the fact that you're talking s**t about him shows how stupid this comment is!

Piran

Anyway, stream 'White Light' by B Minus! 😍

avatar

🧡 oliviasnoodles 🍜

i woke up to see this comment and i am disgusted. don’t you DARE start making fake rumours about me, i never said anything along the lines of “slimy evil c***” and never will, plus me and dillon are back on good terms. leave mateusz out of this too, he can’t control himself, like sure he needs to see a therapist to help him control his anger issues but he’s human after all and everyone has their issues at the end of the day. this was all fake news and the fact that you’re trying to bring me, ben and mateusz down is just appalling.

avatar

Piran

2

I honestly wouldn’t worry too much about what he has to say!

Why would the opinion of someone who promoted killing rich men & mocked family members of people in our community matter to us anyway?

Anyway, I hope you’re having an amazing holiday. :)

Anyway I'm glad Happier Than Ever reached a new peak, hopefully Love Again (best song on the entire chart imo) goes Top 40 soon, and Let Them Know deserves sm better!

Yes Dua needs to get another hit already.

Love Again, Life Goes On and Mirror not being top 40 is a sin. I like Fake Friends but Life Goes On is way better. Body can literally die, same with Clash and every Fredo song like drill is garbage imo. Let Them Know NEEDS to be Top 10 like now because it slaps.

Joshua Sombra

I honestly think that 'Life Goes On' will narrowly miss the Top 40.

2

Yeah but we’ve been having really good weather and EDM is doing really well in the charts because of that so if it continues, I think it might go Top 40. However, unfortunately I don’t think it will peak above like 30 though due to ACR.

Hello Piran!!! I have been so very busy with our going back to school tomorrow...I was pending on asking you about "Take my Breath" but I never found the moment...so glad you like it as much as I do...I hope BE get to the top next week for at least 1 week, because I feel The Weekend is taking over the top spot in a couple of week...also glad with "Stay" topping the chart this week...but then "Black Magic???...Happy you drove back home safely and sound...10 hours!!! long driving, huh?

I honestly think 'Bad Habits' could be #1 for another three weeks yet, since the drill remix of it will boost it next week, allowing it to avoid a decline for ACR, although I hope either 'Stay' or 'Black Magic' can sneak at least one week in at the top!

I actually don't travel back home until tomorrow, but thanks for the good wishes anyway. :)
