Unless you were talking about what we said after he told Electrix to die, which was warranted. 🥱

afrog69, let me make a few things clear with you.

how DARE you publicise this drama?! i actually thought you were ok until people started manipulating you and turning you against ben. how hard is it to just move the on???
not only that, but you’re driving him to the point of suicide and you have no care. that’s selfish, ignorant, insensitive and plain disgusting. no user here would accept someone who sends death threats to innocents.

and to edward, i wanna like you, i really do. but my god, you’re only digging this deeper. you’re way too young for this anyway, so why bother? move on.

i guess the last hope is gone, i am so done here. i am sick and i am tired of constantly being dragged in drama. i guess you’ll be happy to see me wedge a knife through my neck.

bye.

You know, A bully once stuck a needle in my but your making them seem like a angel.I wanna like you too but I'm afraid I'm not too young to stick up for myself. And Dillon did absolutely nothing wrong

nah you were right. she’s a 2 hit wonder now.

I think we have to wait a few years to decide that to be honest.

Most one-hit wonders do have other songs that charted, but they aren’t remembered, and there’s a shot that’s what happens here.

Why does it say World In Motion by New Order peaked at 22 when it was clearly a number one?
Strange thing is Wiki also says it peaked at 22 but also says it's New Order's only UK number one and their discography says number 1 too. :D

How come Diana Ross's new song THANK YOU is #1 on BBC Radio 2 - but not on the hot 100 UK Chart?

What is really happening to the amazing RITA ORA'S CAREER?! i mean she is so talented but her last 3 singles really flopped big time! YOU FOR ME is such a great tune and i was hoping that SIGALA featuring on it will help make the single into The top 20 easily! But no, she is only at 53 this week and i reckon it won't break the Top 40 anytime soon! Shame!

avatar

🧡 oliviasnoodles 🍜

yes, so surprised and disappointed that the song missed the top 40. thought it’d get there, it has sigala on it too!

avatar

Damián

2

Absolutely agree, not so long ago she used to have plenty of top ten hits and now barely gets top forties. Her Bang project with Imanbek was so good and none of the songs entered the 100

avatar

thierry henon

4

and after 16 weeks in the chart GRIFF "BLACK HOLE" is out of the Top 100! I really hope that her latest 2 singles can enter soon the single chart: ONE FOOT IN FRONT OF THE OTHER or even one of my favourite of hers: SHADE OF YELLOW!

one foot in front of the other grew on me a lot actually, hope it charts soon.

I really hope MABEL new single can bounce back next week! I mean, come on , LET THEM KNOW is a great single and deserves better than a 38 peak!

At least 1 of my favourite song is climbing this week: DOJA CAT: ain't xxxx.....and back into the Top 40...

RASPUTIN by Boney M were so close to get another Top 10 under their belt but i guess getting another Top 15 is still an amazing feat for a song that is nearly 50 years old!!

I was expecting TONES & I to easily claim her 2nd Top 20 this week but again one of my favourite song dropping this week!

Not a good week for me in the chart: all my favourite artists are dropping! : Tom Grennan, MIMI WEBB with both her singles, LITTLE MIX, BECKY HILL, ANNE MARIE, DOJA CAT...

ATOMIC KITTEN were so close to get their first Top 10 in nearly 2 decades! Shame it won't happen now that they hype for Euro cup has "gone"..

I know a lot of people out there really like JONASU "BLACK MAGIC" and i usually love that kind of music but i really can't stand that song!

avatar

I do hope MANESKIN can climb back the chart next week! I am a bit surprised that both her singles are already dropping the single chart..

they released an ‘IWBYS’ music video, so hopefully that’ll gain more momentum for the song and push it was up to top 5

Black Magic so close to the top 10! I’m sure it will get there next week. Disappointing to see no new Shane Codd in the top 100 but I’m sure it will be a grower and just take a bit of time to get here. Also loving ‘Clash’ and ‘Stay’, delighted to see them both debut top 5 😊

I know you all want to forget last week's final to Italy but 2 things.

1. I told you so 😂😂

2. I want to say it's disgusting the racial abuse Saka, Sancho and Rashford and I hope they do something to combat this because it means as black people, we can't get something wrong and not be chastised for it online. I wish this nightmare would just pass and racism of any race would end 🤦

Singles or albums? :P

If it's the former, then they have no chance, especially not with Ed blocking everything in his path.

If it's the latter, then they need to beat KSI, Pop Smoke & Olivia Rodrigo! Given that they've not had a #1 album since 1991, that seems very unlikely too!

Yeah, no it won’t. 😭

It’s bad anyway, they fell off in 90s...

What did you guys think of All Over The Place by KSI and Faith by Pop Smoke?

It’s cool to see JJ working with more EDM producers a lot more lately. Madness would have to be my favourite track from it so far though.

Surprised to see a feature from Dua Lipa on the latter album.

Honestly, you’d think we won last Sunday with how many football anthems are in this week’s chart! 😂

Seriously though, this week shouldn’t be a commiseration of England not bringing it home, but a celebration of us making our first final since 1966!

The whole tournament finally brought everyone in the country together & that’s what we all needed given how the past 16 months have gone. :)

avatar

Rob Parkinson

Imagine what the chart would have looked like if we had of won! Would have been crazy, I'm still hearing people playing football songs so I don't think 3 lions will drop out of the top 100 next week just a huge drop.

avatar

Karl Fursey

1

Don't forget when England made the semi final of the world cup three years ago, Three lions climbed to number 1, then dropped to 97 the next week.
I still think it'll drop out of the 100 next Friday, but does hold the record of biggest drop from number1 in a week NOT to go out of the 100.
Last Christmas by Wham had the unwanted honour of being the first single in chart history to drop from 1 out of the 100 at the start of the year.

avatar

MrDannyDoodah

2

And the majority of streams for those football anthems are just from the first three days of the chart week, so if we'd won they'd have carried on being streamed at that high level for the rest of the week and probably more than doubled their tallies, putting several of them top 10, and Baddiel/Skinner probably #2 (or at a push #1, but it would have been close).

avatar

Piran

1

Yeah, although the football anthems seemed surprisingly stable from where they were in last week's First Look (an hour before the game started).

Besides, they'll all probably re-enter the chart again next winter if we perform well in the World Cup anyway! :P

avatar

Piran

1

Yeah, the takeover was even bigger on the Big Top 40 last week, where there were three football anthems in the Top 5 & that's potentially what the Official Chart could've looked like without ACR! :O
