If "Dance Monkey" charted earlier in the year, I'm pretty sure it would top the year-end list, but since it peaked in October, I think it'll make the top 10 at best, but too late for #1.

The Weeknd's new singles are definitely better than some of his previous songs so I'm looking forward to seeing what he'll be putting out next. I just wish however that "Blinding Lights", the song that doesn't have the modern day trap in it, was the single that peaked higher, seeing how it's selling more on iTunes. I do like that song more.

Just waiting for Dance Monkey to hit ACR again tbh. Really hope it's not the Christmas #1!

Yes please don't ruin another Xmas thanks to humbug Radio 1 teens who don't understand the true spirit of an Xmas no.1..Charity ones are always worthy even last years tongue in cheek sausage roll song .

I was expecting this week to be quiet & that’s indeed how it’s looking to turn out!
Both songs from The Weeknd debuting in the Top 10 are better than I predicted & 10 weeks at #1 for ‘Dance Monkey’ surpassed even what I thought it was capable of.
