Ed Sheeran spends way too long in the upper region of the charts. Like, Ed Sheeran could literally record himself breathing for an odd 5 seconds and it could get to number 1 on the charts, stay there for as long as ACR will let it, win a Grammy and so on. His songs never leave.

Yeah, he could do anything and make it last way too long. It's really annoying, even most of serious stuff is horrible.

Oh dear god, there’s now a part 2 of Kings & Queens. The first one was horrible and due to the lyrics in that one making me feel weak, put down, and insecure about myself, I’ve had to blacklist Ava Max from my playlists.

Seriously, the lyrics in the first K&Q were horrible towards men.

avatar

⁉️

1

Great, I really hated the first one. The lyrics and production were really, really boring. Probably one of the worst hits of the year, even worse than Savage Love.

Agree about the lyrics being sexist as well, I don't get how it can be about gender quality, it's more just the toxic side of feminism.

avatar

🧡 oliviasnoodles 🍜

Oh yeah, the production was really bland, basic and computerised. Don’t get me started on how terrible the GarageBand-like guitar sounded.

Honestly, you took the words right out of my mouth regarding the lyrics! So Am I made me feel happy, but this one completely killed the mood and made me feel like I was weak.

Because of that, Ava Max has been blacklisted by me and I won’t check out her new album. Clap Your Hands remains on my pop playlist, but only because she’s a featured artist.

Lyrical Lemonade always drops bangers. I love that channel, they made Juice WRLD, Lil Tecca etc. Even Eminem has a video on there! Only bad thing about it is the videos from The Kid LAROI, who I hate and think is similar to Trippie Redd.

avatar

⁉️

0

Yeah, really like their stuff, especially Juice WRLD and most of the people I've never heard of.

Disagree on The Kid LAROI though, I think he's decent. Far from their best regular though. Also I kinda like Trippie Redd, which I agree he sounds a lot like.

I can’t go on Crownnote anymore.

I just find making a chart there a really long and repetitive process. My top 100 favourite songs of all time was my retirement, I just forgot to mention it.

So from now on, I’ll be downgrading to a top 25 and posting the chart here every Friday night.

Format is like this;

The lyrics are so deep and I relate so much to them, plus that beat hit hard. This is my track of the week! Solid 9/10! :)

RANKING UPDATES:

Rockstar by DaBaby & Roddy Ricch has upgraded to a 10/10!!
Heaven On My Mind by Becky Hill & Sigala grew on me a fair bit, maybe a light-solid 7/10 now.
Holiday is one of Little Mix’s few least detestable songs, getting a light 6/10.
Fishy On Me (a viral song) has unfortunately been heard by me. It’s the kiddie Skechers - strong 1/10! :(
Breaking Me by Topic & A7S has grown on me a bit, but it’s still nothing special, so... solid 4/10?
Senorita got knocked down a bit due to radio not leaving it alone, but it’s still good, so strong 7/10.
Kings & Queens by Ava Max and Savage Love by Jawsh 685 keep grating and grating on me...

UK Chart Thoughts part 2:

Someone You Loved: I hated this song when this song came out and still hate it now that voice is like nails on a chalkboard it’s that bad

Take Care of You: now the only song I’ve ever really known is her biggest hit Ghost back a few years ago but I’ve heard Yours and her collab with Sigala in We Got Love too and that’s pretty good 😊😊 and this song is also pretty awesome 😊😊 I like the beat and her voice is amazing as always and the sentiment in taking care of someone you love is very sweet 😊😊 overall it’s a great song

Take You Dancing: now this may enter the hot 100 so I’ll try to keep it brief but overall it’s a great song the beat is pretty good & I’m really glad Jason is back in the mainstream with this and Savage Love

Rain: now this song is a frigging banger I’ve heard of Aitch before on the remix of Ed Sheeran’s Take me Back to London with Stormzy and Jaykae and he’s a pretty good rapper and he has a good flow and technical skill and he has good chemistry with his collaborators as seen here with AJ Tracey.

This song is so good the production provided by Tay Keith is very good the piano added in to that trap beat and Aitch and AJ are killing it on this track their verses are on point and they have good interplay and are having fun which is awesome overall it’s a great song 😊😊

Un Dia (One Day): ill have more to say on the hot 100 when it comes out because this will well crack through the folklore bomb no sweat 😊😊 but this song is pretty great. The beat is good and Dua sounds amazing & J Balvin and Bad Bunny are great as usual.

Lose Somebody: it’s so weird to not see One Republic on the charts anymore I feel like they have a hit song every couple of years to stay relevant and this song with Kygo is pretty good 😊😊 the beat is good and Ryan Tedder sounds good as usual it’s a decent song overall

TKN: I love latin music so much and even I like latin trap and reggaeton some of my faves include Natti Natasha, Anitta, Becky G, J Balvin, Maluma, Nicky Jam & even heavyweights like Enrique Iglesias, Shakira, Daddy Yankee, Pitbull, J-Lo and many others and I like Rosalía as well I love Yo Ti Tu Mi with Ozuna and this one is pretty good too 😊. I like the latin trap beat and both Rosalía and Travis Scott sound great it’s a decent song it’s not my favorite overall but it’s good

Giants: I love Dermot Kennedy’s music some of my faves include Lost, Outnumbered and Boston 😊😊 Taylor actually introduced me to his music thanks to her playlists that she posts on Spotify & Apple Music. This song is amazing I love the upbeat production and instrumentation and Dermot’s voice sounds great as usual 😊😊 definitely gonna be a song for my summer playlist

Own It: This has been one of my favorite songs from last year. I’ve been a fan of Stormzy since he showed up on the remixes of Power by Little Mix & Shape of You by Ed Sheeran and speaking of Ed Take Me Back to London was another good song they did together and this song as well 😊😊.

I love the beat provided by Burna Boy it’s fun and dark at the same time. Stormzy’s verses are so good he’s probably one of the best British’s rappers around right now and Ed sounds amazing in his verse and provided some great backing vocals too. Overall a great song I’m sad it never gained any traction in the US.

Say Something: I’m such a HUGE fan of Kylie Minogue I mean if we are looking at a queen of pop on an international scale then (with all respect to Madonna) Kylie would of course be it. Some of my favorites are Come into My World, Get Out of My Way, Stop Me From Falling with Gente De Zona, Timebomb, All The Lovers, I Should be So Lucky, Spinning Around & of course Love at First Sight, Locomotion & Can’t Get You Out of my Head the hits are just endless and with a 30+ plus year career under her belt she certainly can do no wrong at this point 😊😊.

I just love the song I love that she’s going disco with her next record (simply titled DISCO) after doing a country folk EDM-ish sound on her last record Golden. Say Something certainly does the job right here the disco groove is perfection, I love the percussion, the synth touches with the added guitar riff it’s blended so well with Kylies voice which is amazing as always disco certainly fits her like a glove and the lyrics about finding the courage to say something to the one you love is simplistic but sweet at the same time. Overall it’s one of my favorites outside of Folklore 😊❤️

Nobody’s Love: this might end up on the hot 100 too so this will be brief but simply put I’m sick of Maroon 5 always chasing trends and relevancy like the song is just bland and generic.

Break Up Song: another favorite from Little Mix. I love the fast almost pop rock beat, the group sounds amazing as usual and Little Mix certainly knows how to make break up songs like Shout Out to My Ex and No More Sad Songs and this is no exception. This song is pretty decent all round.

Shotgun: I’m surprised this didn’t become another hit for George Ezra after the highly successful Budapest from a few years back. This song is true indie folk at its finest. I love the indie alternative production and instrumentation it’s fun and upbeat and George’s voice is so rich and soothing and the lyrics apparently describing a trip where he spent most of his time relaxing and just having fun and I think that it’s pretty cool it’s basically a song about living life to the fullest and enjoying the little moments. It’s a great song

Memories: the song is in the pile of okay Maroon 5 songs but it’s certainly not their best nuff said...

And that’s part 2 of my thoughts on this chart sorry for the lateness again btw I just had a 7 day stretch at work done and now I’m exhausted thank god im off tomorrow anyways hope y’all like it 😊

But I also googled and was quite surprised to see that 7 singles entered the Billboard Top 100. But only 2 of tem went top 10: The Locomotion and Can't Get you Out Of My Head (I guess I'm the worst Kylie fan ever because I never have liked and still do not like CGYOOMH).

I really liked it apart from maybe KSI, who I'm really mixed on. Definitely his best appearance on anything though.

I feel like KSI didn't need to be in the song, I do agree that it is his best appearance though

I really like it too that beat & Ella’s voice is infectious and I don’t think KSI is bad at all his verse is decent & the added trap beat really helped the song then ruin it in my mind

That is true, it probably would've been better without him. Though that's probably because I dislike most of his music.

Back in the day, not so long ago, a Kylie new single would have been a sure top ten hit. Because of streaming, you tube, ageism or whatever, the spectacular electro pop disco Say Something only debuted at 82. FAIR or Kylie, an OBE, an icon, and international pop star for 33 years + its a totally unfair item.

avatar

🧡 oliviasnoodles 🍜

iTunes supported it when it came out, but Kylie’s music is really underrated on streaming. I like a lot of the songs in the top 40, but yeah, Kylie should have got in the region. She’s had a lot of hits.

Totally agree with you Coolocelot, she's never did well on streaming and you tube views. I think cos most of her fans, including me, belong to the sales era, when everything depending exclusively just on sales.

I remember my dad listening to a song called 'Barbados' by Typically Tropical from the 1970s and when I was listening to it I thought it sounded familiar. Then I realised the Vengaboys used it but changed the lyrics for their song 'We're Going To Ibiza'. Both songs reached number one in the UK.

UK CHART THOUGHTS:

Sorry I’m so late with this: So here’s my thoughts on the UK chart I got a lot to say because most of these songs are either songs I haven’t heard before or in a while or songs that were on the hot 100 for a time but I haven’t given my thoughts on it. So this might be in 2 parts haha so here we go:

Head & Heart: so this has been introduced to me by Piran (thank you man) and this song is literally my new fave outside of Folklore. The beat is banging it’s so fun and catchy and the lyrics are decent too and vocally they sound great overall it’s a fun summer dance song and I’m glad it’s a number one hit in the UK let’s hope it crosses the Atlantic soon and I’m sure it will given the success of Roses.

Lighter: another fun dance song (EDM must be very popular there) it has a fun beat, Ella Henderson (who’s uncredited sadly) is amazing vocally and KSI has a pretty good rap verse with that added trap beat in the middle and the lyrics are decent but I mean it’s a dance song so it’s not really gonna matter haha overall a great song.

Only You Freestyle: you know with all the songs involving Drake I’m surprised this didn’t get any attention in the states it’s somewhat popular in Canada (which is typical given he’s Canadian) but I’m glad it’s successful in the UK because Headie One is a UK drill and trap artist and honestly I don’t mind this I love the trap drill inspired beat and Drake has a good verse and rides the beat well it’s the best I’ve heard from him since Nice For What honestly and Headie One is a pretty good rapper honestly I really should explore drill music a little more it sounds pretty good.

West Ten: this song is pretty good. I think AJ’s rapping technique is impressive and I love Mabel’s music (Don’t Call Me Up is a bop and I love Cigarette with RAYE & Stefflon Don) and she sounds great in this song and the beat is actually pretty great too

Is this what drill is?? What classifies a song as drill?? Because the beat is very fast but it has some sort of eerie feel with a hint of trap can Piran or any other person from the UK explain that because I know it’s not really a huge genre here across the pond I’m interested

Secrets: Now I’ve heard of both these artists before. Regard obviously had that big hit this year with his remixed version of Jay Sean’s Ride It thanks to TikTok which is a decent dance hit and I’ve heard of RAYE before with songs like again Cigarette, Love Me Again with Jess Glynne and my favorite Decline with Mr. Eazi (that really used that Ja Rule, Ashanti sample of I’m Always On Time very well)

and as for this song well I like it I love the dance beat and Regard & RAYE sounds great in this song 😊😊 it sounds another summer jam for Regard hopefully it becomes a hit outside the UK.

Dancing in the Moonlight: I really like this song too the beat is pretty good definitely a song to listen to in the night near the end of a big party it has chill night time vibes haha it really that we don’t have a lot of dance songs becoming hits in the states or Canada.

Holiday: I’m a HUGE Little Mix fan I have all their albums and know all their songs some of my favorites including Hair, Private Show, Reggaeton Lento with CNCO, Think About Us, Wings, Move, Weird People, Touch, Love Me Like You & so many others and I love this new song by them.

I love the tropical beat and vocally they sound amazing as usual with their beautiful harmonies and lyrically it’s a song about having a fun time with your lover it’s a fun song overall 😊😊

Breaking Me: I didn’t say anything on the hot 100 about this song when it debuted I thought it was okay but I needed a few more listens to get into it and my final thoughts well I like the beat and the lyrics are decent but I don’t know there’s something missing and I don’t know what it is it’s just okay to me but I think it could be a grower on me maybe.

Heaven on My Mind: I Love Sigala 😊😊 some of my favorite dance songs recently have been by him like Came Here For Love with Ella Eyre, Just Got Paid with again Ella, Meghan Trainor & French Montana, Sweet Lovin, What You Waitin For with Kylie Minogue & many more

As for this song?? Well I love the beat it’s so fun and upbeat Sigala really knows how to create a good dance beat for his music he’s very talented as a DJ & Becky Hill sounds great in this song and lyrically it’s pretty good too. The UK really knows how to party haha

This City: I like this song. I like the acoustic instrumentation and production it’s very Sam Smith/Ed Sheeran-esque and he sounds great and the lyrics are very sad about feeling different at a party in the city and not fitting in it’s a great song

Kings and Queens: you know I’m really surprised that Ava Max haven’t had any success after her big debut hit Sweet But Psycho now it wasn’t my favorite of last year but it was a decent pop tune nonetheless. I’m glad she’s getting some type of success in the UK with this song.

I like this song I love the pop production and instrumentation and Ava sounds great in this song and the lyrics are decent it’s a nice step up from her debut single

What’s Love Got to do with It: this is one of my favorite 80s songs and Kygo basically killed it with this remix I really believe that he didn’t ruin it the dance production is sweet and Tina sounds great of course haha

Perfect: this is still on the charts?? Either way it’s one of my favorite Ed Sheeran songs

Hallucinate: one of my favorite songs on Future Nostalgia and I’m so glad she’s making this her next single I love the nostalgic 90s EDM beat courtesy of legendary producer Stuart Price and Dua’s sounds amazing & the lyrics about falling for someone so hard that you feel like hallucinating is definitely a relatable feeling.

And that’s it for part 1 I’ll have a part 2 up tomorrow 😊😊

Uktop40 is the worst i hate this list is not fair...

avatar

Piran

How is it not fair that Taylor got three songs in the chart?

Hundreds of thousands of people across the UK either bought, streamed or viewed each of the songs here, so they deserve to be as high as they are!

In fact, she could actually be having a lot more songs in the Top 40! If it weren't for the nonsensical rule about artists having a limited number of simultaneous chart entries (which there shouldn't be, given that removing it would accurately reflect what's popular, which was the whole point of making music charts in the first place), Taylor would probably have almost every track on 'Folklore' in the region.

Fun facts:

- Boasting 76.3K sales, 'Head & Heart' claims the fifth biggest sale for a #1 single so far this year, and the first to achieve 75K since 'You'll Never Walk Alone', which achieved over 80K some 14 weeks ago.
- Bon Iver claims his first chart entry since 2009 with 'exile.'
- Taylor Swift is now the fourth female artist of the modern era to enjoy three simultaneous Top 10 hits, following Rihanna, Ariana Grande and Dua Lipa. She is also one of the five women to have topped the albums chart at least five times.
- Other album tracks from 'folklore' would've charted at #13, #15, #18, #21, #24, #31, #36, #37, #40, #42, #45 and #51 if they didn't get "starred-out".
- Selling 37K, 'folklore' claims the third highest sale for a #1 album this year.

First thing worth noting is that Head & Heart remains at #1 for it's second week - Joel Corry is an amazing talent and I'm extremely happy for MNEK, who really deserves this run after years of amazing work!

The massively addictive Lighter debuts at #4 and is the highest debut of the week - it's already reached higher than Flowers, making it both the highest position for Nathan and KSI, a big well done to them both!

Dancing In The Moonlight continues rising to #16 - having heard this song when it was first released, its fantastic to see it getting a lot of success!

My last note is on what is still my favourite song at the moment, Looking For Me, which has continued rising to #50, and has also been in Spotify's Viral Top 50 all week - at this point, I'll be extremely disappointed if it doesn't hit the Top 40, especially as it's already in Vodafone's Big Top 40 now!

What is your favourite song from each of Taylor's albums? :)

Mine would be...

Taylor Swift: 'Should've Said No'
Fearless: 'Love Story'
Speak Now: 'Back To December'
Red: 'Everything Has Changed'
1989: 'Style'
Reputation: 'Dancing With Our Hands Tied'
Lover: 'Cruel Summer'
Folklore: 'Exile'

avatar

David N'jama

1989: Bad blood
Lover: miss Americanana and the heartbreak prince

Everything else. Is the same with yours

avatar

Piran

2

Glad we mainly agree! :)

Regarding 'Bad Blood', I wasn't really a big fan of the original album version, but the remix with Kendrick is awesome & a huge improvement.

'Miss Americana & The Heartbreak Prince' certainly grew on me, but not enough to be a highlight from 'Lover', at least for me!

avatar

David N'jama

2

Yeah. I agree on that, the remix was better.

I actually liked Lover along with the version featuring Shawn Mendes

avatar

Piran

1

'Lover' definitely needed a duet, even if I do think Shawn struggled with his upper range on the remix.

avatar

David N'jama

2

But it wasn't so obvious. :)

avatar

Piran

2

Yeah, although because Taylor's voice was so beautiful on that song, the original is slightly better for me, haha! :D

K

Kevan

2

Fearless: Love Story
1989: Style
Red: We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together
Reputation: Delicate
Lover: You Need to Calm Down
Folklore: Exile

avatar

Piran

1

Good taste! :)

I love that we share: 'Exile', 'Style' & 'Love Story' in our lists.

What about her self-titled album?

K

Kevan

2

I've only started to really like Taylor after the release of "1989"😜, hence I haven't really listened to her older albums much :p

avatar

Jeremy Dove

2

OMG THIS IS SO HARD 🤔🤔 I gotta do a top 3 as it’s impossible to pick just one:

Taylor Swift: I’m Only Me When I’m With You, Stay Beautiful & Mary’s Song

Fearless: You Belong With Me, Jump Then Fall & Superstar

Speak Now: this is toughest because it’s my top favorite album along with Folklore so I would go with...Haunted, Ours and a toss up between Enchanted & Superman

Red: All Too Well, Starlight & State of Grace (this is also a tough one haha)

1989: Style, You Are In Love & I Wish You Would

Reputation: Getaway Car, Call It What You Want & New Years Day

Lover: another tough one...Cruel Summer, Lover & Paper Rings

Folklore: (this may change at any moment where it’s new haha) August, The Last Great American Dynasty & a toss up between Cardigan & Mirrorball

As for other Taylor Swift songs outside of the main albums my favorites are:

Beautiful Eyes (from the Beautiful Eyes EP)
Safe & Sound (from the Hunger Games)
Beautiful Ghosts (from Cats)
Highway Don’t Care (with Tim McGraw & Keith Urban
Babe (with Sugarland)
And of course Thug Story with T-Pain 😂😂😂

avatar

Piran

1

Haha, 'Thug Story' is my second favourite Taylor Swift meme (after the 'I Knew You Were Trouble' goat, of course!). ;)

Anyway, your choices are amazing & I especially like how you did your favourite songs of hers that weren't from her studio albums (especially 'Safe & Sound').

As for the albums themselves, I probably agree with you most on 'Lover'!

avatar

Jeremy Dove

2

The IKYWT goat was hilarious 😂😂😂

Thank you 😊😊 yeah I include every song when it comes to Taylor haha 😊😊 Safe & Sound is just brilliant through and through 😊😊 Folklore is like Safe & Sound x16 and even better 😂😂

Lover is definitely in the top 3 ❤️❤️

WEEKLY CHART REVIEW (31/07/2020 - 06/08/2020)

🔴 (Negative)

1) No… ‘Rain On Me’ is on ACR! :(

2) ‘Kings & Queens’ is starting to fall fast now! Oh well, at least it became a Top 20 hit here.

🟠 (Mixed)

1) ‘Lighter’ debuted in the Top 5 on the overall chart & reached #1 on sales! The song is definitely growing on me, but I really wish Ella Henderson got an official credit here.

2) ‘Holiday’ debuted lower than first anticipated! I can tolerate Little Mix way more than most regulars here, but this song just did nothing much for me at all.

3) The chart show was reduced to 45 minutes due to Radio 1’s weekend of EDM! I mean, come on… I enjoy the genre a lot, but 70 whole hours of it?!

4) Among the DJ Khaled songs, ‘Greece’ held up way better than ‘Popstar’! The former is definitely the better of the two collaborations, but that’s honestly not saying much.

5) ‘Hallucinate’ still isn’t in the Top 40! I think it’ll definitely get there next week though.

6) ‘My Future’ by Billie Eilish will probably get a huge debut in the next chart! The transition was interesting, but the first half of the song needs to grow on me.

7) ‘Secrets’ & ‘Dinner Guest’ both dropped out of the Top 10!

8) ‘Mood Swings’ re-entered the chart out of nowhere! I remember giving it a slightly positive review, but it’s not Pop Smoke’s best.

🟢 (Positive)

1) ‘Head & Heart’ remains #1 for a second week! I don’t think any amount of overplay could make me tired of hearing this, haha.

2) One of Taylor’s best songs of all-time just about debuts in the Top 10, that being ‘Exile’ with Bon Iver! ❤️

3) As ‘Cardigan’ & ‘The 1’ both made it too, Taylor’s total number of Top 10 singles in the UK is now up to 16! For the first time in her career, she makes three simultaneous appearances in the region.

4) She also secured her fifth consecutive #1 album (she’s topped the chart there with every album for one week since ‘Red’ from back in 2012).

5) ‘Party Girl’ dropped back, even with the release of the EP! Sorry to any fans, but this song is really boring in my opinion.

6) ‘Dancing In The Moonlight’ moved up five places to a new peak of #16! Hopefully it’ll be in the Top 10 soon.

Have a good weekend everybody! ;)

Try to learn what a reviewer is before claiming, falsely I might add, that you are one. You also may want to learn and understand and apply the word "Impartiality".

avatar

Completely agree on the chart show - what a total joke! It's bad enough that they don't play anything like the whole 40 at the best of times but they only played 11 songs in total and missed out loads of new entries.

Radio 1 just don't take the chart show seriously anymore, it's time The Official Charts licensed it to someone who gives a about it GRRRR!!! :-/

avatar

Piran

1

I think the EDM special was just a one-off, but including the chart show in the 70 hour dance marathon is just overkill! :/

It would be better if they either went back to the three-hour format & played every song, or did what they did beforehand & briefly run down 40-26, while playing the Top 25 in full (hence, the show would still last an hour & three-quarters).

I still listen to it each week, but as a regular, even I can say that the Radio 1 chart show is slowly losing its magic sadly!

avatar

Piran

You clearly don't follow the charts, nor the community surrounding them.

Where did I claim that was a serious "reviewer"? I said that this was a "chart review", yes, but that's completely different! That's like me saying I'm going out to play a game of football with my friends, then somebody calling me a professional footballer because of it, which is absolutely stupid logic.

Ultimately, I'm just stating my opinion, which I'm completely entitled to do & kind of the point why Disqus was installed here in the first place!

Also, if you ever saw my posts before about two weeks ago (which you obviously didn't), then you would see that I went into a full analysis of the production, lyrics, songwriting, vocals, delivery, etc. of a song. The thing is, in busy weeks, it would get up to two pages long on MS Word, so other contributors to this page wanted to see a new format that is more compact, but still communicates my thoughts. Hence, that's what I did here!

Besides, a lot of other people are doing the same, so if you can't respect anyone's music taste, then maybe this site isn't the right place for you.

'Mr Brightside' dropped out?! Oh well, knowing that song, I'm sure it'll come back again soon, haha.

The comment I was replying to was actually about Billie Eilish's new single, but speaking of Ava Max, I really hope her new single does well (although she did just release a new version of 'Kings & Queens', so that might that song off ACR for another week or two at least).
