No tribute article to Mary Wilson of The Supremes? One of the best charting girl groups of all time...Mary was there from the start until the end

They actually did though.

I haven't seen any of the millions of downvotes in the last 24 hours so is that a good sign?

Just like people said the weeknd performance at super bowl definitely boost sales and also radio media video/tv programmes have such an impact pushing a song /album and or artist/band

BLINDING LIGHTS AND DANCE MONKEY ARE 2 SONGS I BELIEVE IN 2022 THEY WILL STILL CHART IN THE TOP 50

Factoid: So Far Drivers License has only shifted a slow gear of 16,392
Pure Sales in UK Within 5 weeks (So Far #1 for 1 week on Sales &
Download Charts), as the track topped the singles charts for 5 times in a
row, so the rest of the units of 409,231 is by Streaming Points

hi Ronald! how are you? Long time no speak! Hope you are fine and enjoying summer...Have you listened to KEEINO new song: SUMMER OF MY LIFE? one of the best they ever released! And the video is top notch! Have a great day and stay safe..

avatar

Ronald van Veen

Hi Thierry, indeed it's been a while!
I'm fine and my Summer holiday started on Wednesday so I'm even better now!
5 weeks off from work, whoohoo!
Hope you are fine and safe too, and less busy than I have been this past months.
I really do like SUMMER OF MY LIFE by KEIINO, I think they will release their second album real soon. They already released so many singles this year (according to Spotify).
Best wishes, Ronald

Roadtrip will hit top 50 next week

I would rather it didn’t do that. :|

I think it's good tbf. He's defo more autotune than talent but sometimes that works

avatar

⁉️

That can work, but sadly this isn’t one of those times for me. :|

Although, I am HEAVILY biased against Dream for other reasons, so maybe that’s why I hate it this much.

avatar

🧡 oliviasnoodles 🍜

1

unfortunately i don’t see that happening. it’s a shame tho since the song is decent and i’m starting to really like dream as a youtuber, especially his minecraft manhunts.

avatar

Half Giant- Ethan

And dream is top 100 too. They've not just taken over youtube gaming but the top 100 too lol

avatar

⁉️

1

OH MY GOD NO I THOUGHT HE WAS GONNA MISS THE CHART! :|

Probably because of his stans, I doubt anyone else would listen to it.

i’m not exactly a dream stan, i’ve only just got into his videos. that being said, the song is good in my opinion.

Still no bang :( #STREAMBANG

I’ll delete my account if Bang! goes Top 10.

Not even kidding.

avatar

Half Giant- Ethan

Oh itll never be top 10 i just want it to hit top 100. The next song of theirs which will come out wednesday is rigged to blow up in america. 8 radio stations over there have listed it as their top pick and it's not even out yet! It's gonna be good, and if it's big over there I hope its big over here.

avatar

⁉️

1

I hope it flops, I’m really sorry but there’s no band I hate more right now.

Also, randomly, I’m really annoyed that they’re releasing an album the day after my birthday. :|

avatar

Half Giant- Ethan

1

Bruh why does everyone hate AJR XD

avatar

⁉️

2

Because they are PAINFULLY generic, they feel the same as like 100 other bands.

I also find their lyrics to be completely cringy and non-sensical.

I just can’t take them seriously in any capacity.

Sober Up even slightly ruined Weezer’s good stuff for me.

avatar

I already said it earlier but here are my predictions for next week

10. Goosebumps (Travis Scotland and HVME)
9. Paradise (Coldplay XD)
8.Get Out My Head (Shane Codfish)
7.Save your tears (The Weekday)
6.Without You (The kid LAROI)
5. Wellerman (Some scot)
4.Don't Play (JJ and a pig)
3.The business (Tiesto)
2.Driver's license (Nini from HSMTMTS)
1.We're Good (Two lips)

Very disappointed that Rag'n'Bone Man's new single only came in at No 80 and has dropped out the chart this week.
On The Airplay Chart it came in at No 30 and has dropped out this week.
Come on Radio Stations be fair and play it, only heard it once.

avatar

Yeah, I definitely agree that it should be higher.

Airplay doesn’t affect the charts, by the way.

Not over here, but it does in america

Yeah, it’s the reason country and bands people don’t really like get in.

Money Talks dropping out of the top 10 after just one week kinda .

At least it got replaced by Goosebumps though.

Save Your Tears jumping up that high is insane. I didn't think the Superbowl has much of an effect on the charts here?

Sometimes it does, depending on a) how good the performance is and b) who the artist is

I assumed it was more to do with Capital picking it up and running with it.

Often as a song climbs Capital pick it up the song and the song accelerates.

yeah they performed on super bowl, last weekend, but the sales and streamed has always had huge impact weeks before (Weeks in fact), it just the playlists has grown and added higher recently to zoom back up the charts and these days for ACR it takes a few weeks to have a impact a bit later on.

I noticed that he has a Greatest Hits album at Number 2 this week.

That probably helped more.

Excited to see where the new Dua tracks and Love Story may land next week

avatar

⁉️

3

I wonder if Love Story will be credited as the original or not though.

If it isn’t, it’ll probably be Top 30 or so.

As for Dua, I think We’re Good will go Top 5, and two other songs (probably If It Ain’t Me and That Kind Of Woman) will be at the low 30s.

with the DaBaby Levitating remix on the album, it might give that a boost too :P

The song that has spent the most weeks at #1 after debuting at #1 was Shape of You by Ed Sheeran which spent 13 consecutive weeks (14 non-consecutive weeks overall) at #1 in 2017, interesting to see how many weeks Driver's Licence will be #1 for

Don't really know how Don't Play is still in the top 5 - I thought it would slip away very quickly (as is the norm), but it's held up. If that was Really Love, then I'd be all for it, but I don't mind Don't Play as such

avatar

ACR had a real impact on this week’s chart, but I’m pleased that ‘Really Love’ somehow managed to avoid it.

I was really hoping that would hit #1 & it’s still a 10/10 for me to this day! :D

Can you tell I use Rate Your Music?

🧡 oliviasnoodles 🍜

yes! another beatles & pink floyd fan. both are legendary bands. :D

wap deserves to be on the singles list, same with stan, and i knew kanye would be at number 1 on singles and albums. tpab at number 4 on albums is amazing!! 😍

also i don’t care for rym 😬

avatar

⁉️

1

Yeah, The Beatles and Pink Floyd are some of the best bands, although none of the latter’s Top 3 best albums went to Number 1.

Really, what made you think Kanye would be here? 🤔

Totally not the reason I added a limit of 1 album per artist or my favourite artist artist of all time.

As for Rate Your Music, I see why someone wouldn’t like it, it gets quite annoying sometimes
