I have been trying to put this off and off for a couple of days mostly because I do not want to talk about Morgan Wallen who had a muted impact on the chart this week and the chart has been as stale and as boring as it is but anyway let's get on with the top ten where for yet another week, "Ordinary" by Alex Warren remains at number one and again I don't see what is going to beat it anytime soon as it is dominant on streaming and sales.
Sombr remains at number two with "Undressed" but its really only got streaming traction driving it forward while Sombr's other top ten hit "Back to Friends" climbed seven spots to number three and again...this is purely because of streaming.
Same goes for Ravyn Lenae's "Love Me Not" which climbed one to number four however it did push
"That's So True" by Gracie Abrams back to number five while "Pink Pony Club" by Chappell Roan fell back two to number six.
"Birds of a Feather" by Billie Eilish seems to finally be falling apart as it slipped one to number seven while "Die With a Smile" by Lady Gaga and Bruno Mars rose one spot to number eight.
The final two songs in the top ten both fell two places with "APT" by Rose and Bruno Mars down to nine and "Beautiful Things" by Benson Boone down to number ten.
Losers
"Not Like Us" by Kendrick Lamar slipped eight to forty eight while "Indigo" by Sam Barber and Avery Anna plunged seven to forty three.
"I Love You, I'm Sorry" by Gracie Abrams took a fourteen place hit to stumble to number thirty six. Doechii's "Anxiety" down seven to twenty five. 44
Gains
So outside of Sombr's "Back to Friends" rising seven places to number three, the only other major gain we had was for "Party 4 U" by Charli XCX which rose eleven places to number twenty seven.
Re-Entries
Shame the one return this week isn't any good with "I'm The Problem" by Morgan Wallen benefiting from the album release to return at number thirty four.
Drop outs
Three drop outs with Lady Gaga's "Abracadabra", Lorde's "What Was That?" and Luke Combs "Ain't No Love in Oklahoma" all leaving this week
New Entries
Two new entries, both of them by Morgan Wallen, beginning with...
45. "Just In Case" by Morgan Wallen
Let's begin our laborious exploration of the two new Morgan Wallen songs to hit the charts courtesy of the album dropping with this being one of the pre album release singles and honestly compared to the absolute worst on the album, this is fine if not forgettable...it's a song where Wallen is saying he is keeping other women at bay just in case the woman he wants comes back to him and honestly there's just not a lot of charm to this, it just feels gross especially when the cardboard production can barely sell miuch of anything but at least it's better than.///
17. "What I Want" by Morgan Wallen feat. Tate McRae.
So I have a couple of problems with this song, namely the use of trap sounds in Wallen's music, a sound that he said he was going to be steering away from on this album yet it's used in a way here that's not flattering and doesn't help the overall sound especially when that trap percussion comes in...yikes.
Also Morgan, could you really have not gotten a rising female star in country music to feature on this limp song but had to go for the nearest popstar instead? Could have afforded to help women in country music over a person who is cashing in off being a limp Billie Eilish knock off...ugh.
Anyway, disposing of best of the week this week because neither song is vaguely good enough for that but I am going to give worst of the week to "What I Want" for being a boring husk of a song.
