ARIA Top 50 Singles Chart Review. 26th September. The one where Calvin turns up

 Sigh. This week feels a bit pointless given we're likely going to see an influx of Taylor Swift songs from the encore of The Life of a Showgirl" (more on that next week), it almost kind of feels superfluous to even write this but anyway let's go to our top ten where for a fifteenth week, it's "Choosin' Texas" by Ella Langley at number one, now it'll probably lose the top spot to Taylor Swift next week but held number one this week thanks to it's margins on sales and streaming. 

Especially ahead of what have been our number two and three for months with "Rein Me In" by Sam Fender and Olivia Dean at number two and "Man I Need" by Olivia Dean at number three. 

Both these songs are set to come under pressure from "Nicole Kidman" by Adela which rose ten slots to number four thanks to strength on streaming, it had the impact of pushing "Ordinary" by Alex Warren back to number five and "Boston" by Stella Lefty back to number six.

Rising six slots to number seven on a good week for Adela is "Ain't in L.A" while "Stupid Song" by Olivia Rodrigo fell back two to number eight and "Earrings" by Malcolm Todd slipped two to number nine.

Rounding out the top ten is the return to the top ten of "Self Aware" by Temper City at number ten.


Losers

"Oh Yeah?" by Steve Lacy fell eight to thirty nine while "Love Me Not" by Ravyn Lenae slipped seven to fifteen (Coold be charting any song from her most recent album, Australia...just saying).

Drop Outs

Sp we did see five songs leave this week and I am mostly okay with all of these leaving? Sure I like "Undressed" by Sombr but it's had it's run on the charts now and "Noble" by F3miii has worn out it's welcome for me so I am glad to see it gone especially if it's taking "Carry You Home" and "Fever Dream" by Alex Warren and "Risk It All" by Bruno Mars with it. 

Gains

The biggest gain of the week unfortunately belongs to "Moving to the Sun" by Hugel, Imael Angel and Ultra Nate which climbed twenty to a new peak of twenty seven.

"The Fate of Ophelia" by Taylor Swift jumped ten to fourteen...it could return to the top ten next week with the release of the encore/deluxe edition of The Life of A Showgirl. 

"No Broke Boys" by Disco Lines and Tinashe rebounded seven to eighteen.


Re-Entries

Four returns this week beginning with "Victory Lap" by Fred Again, Skepta and Plaqueboy Max back at number forty eight.

"Stateside"  by PinkPantheress and Zara Larsson returns at number forty six while I am thrilled to see "Willing and Able" by Noah Kahan back at forty one (finally one of the good songs from that album is getting some decent traction)

Finally "My Body Isn't Ready" by Sombr returned yet again at number thirty six.


New Entries

One new entry this week...

42. "Blessings" by Calvin Harris feat. Clementine Douglas

So this is a song that was on Calvin Harris best of album last year and this is a pretty solid dance/electronic song about a parasocial relationship that ends with the person walking away with maturity and self respect in tact rather than diving into bitterness or resentment which is something that i do like. It's a fine enough song that doesn't give me a lot to say.

And that will be in stark contrast to next week...because...ugh...it's going to be all about Taylor Swift. 


Pretty Fly (For 1999) 26th September If I Let Dophin's Baby Back Forever

So this feels like a less and more week at hand here...we got the usual clatter of new entries but for the most part it was a pretty calm week with none of the craziness of previous weeks however there is still a little bit going on in our top ten where for yet another week, it's "Mambo No. 5" by Lou Bega at number one, it held sway over "Last Kiss" by Pearl Jam holding steady at numbe two.

Rising two spots to number three is "Genie in a Bottle" by Christina Aguilera while "When You Say Nothing At All" by Ronan Keating has somewhat stalled out at number four, I don't see this song moving any higher.

It was a straight swap though because "If Ya Gettin' Down" by Five slipped two to number five. while Smash Mouth rebounded one spot to number six. 

"Boom, Boom, Boom, Boom!" by Vengaboys slipped one to number seven.

Tal Bachman has his first top ten hit as "She's So High" climbed five to number eight while "2 Times" remains at number nine for the second week in a row for Ann Lee.

Finally "Wild Wild West" by Will Smith slipped two to number ten and seems to have peaked. 

Loserrs

Not much in the way of big losers this week apart from maybe "Say It Once" by Ultra down seven to fifty and "Nookie" by Limp Bizkit down ten to thirty eight. 

 Gains

So we did see "Everywhere You Go" by Taxiride get a nice ten place boost to twenty nine while "Smooth" by Santana and Rob Thomas climbed six to sixteen (this song is absolutely huge in the US). 

New Entries

Five new entries beginning with...

49. "Forever" by Tina Cousins

First of two newcomes from out of the UK this week, the first being Tina Cousins with this song being the fifth single from her debut album "Killing Time" and yeah, this is pretty damn good! Cousins definitely has a presence about her in terms of her vocals because my gosh she sounds phenomenal here and the lyrics hit hard here too, a relationship on the verge of breaking up and Cousins just asking to have one final forever moment with this person before they go their separate ways for good. Hope this sticks around, don't mind this. 

49. "The Dolphin's Cry"  by Live

Brand new Live single from "The Distance to Here" and it's another hook ridden song from this American group and I suspect that the hook is probably what this song is going to be remembered for because man, that hook is damn sticky as hell and for once most of the vocals aren't completely buried behind the instrumentation on this song which is nice and Ed Kowalczyk is definitely a solid presence behind the microphone, he makes this song work.

The content also works decently here, all about finding a connection with somebody special be romantic or spiritual. I do like this, check it out!


47. "Bye Bye Baby" by TQ

Kind of surprised that it has taken so long to follow up "Westside" for YQ but we did finally get it and...wow,,,this is A LOT, it's a piano led R'N'B song where  TQ describes being out in a car with his girlfriend when attackers fatally shoot and kill his girlfriend leaving him with feelings of intense grief and anger that quickly crystallises into wanting revenge against those who killed his girlfriend and threatening to hunt those responsible down and shoot them with his gun. Now I do wish the music was a little darker to match the content of the song. that's all, it just doesn't quite hit for me.

39. "Bring It All Back" by S Club 7

Last two songs new this week are from UK acts with this one being the debut single from a manufactured to some degree group featuring both men and women called S Club 7, four girls (Jo, Rachel, Tina and Hannah) and three men (Jon, Paul and Bradley) and this song is a complete contrast to the TQ song because for one thing, it's a bright sunshiney song about how we shouldn't give it up and strive to reach the top and not letting the little things bother us, its a pretty cute empowerment song led by the girls especially Jo and Rachel who do have the most powerful voices of any of the female members especially Jo while Bradley does do some adlibs on the final chorus...pretty fun little pop jam...check this out!

13. "If I Let You Go" by Westlife

So given the success of "Swear It Again", it's no surprise to see Westlife back with a follow up single and I actually like this one a bit better than "Swear it Again" mostly because unlike "Swear It Again", this song has a hook that absolutely soars with the boys voices for a change, the hook actually sounds anthemic and yeah, the content is your standard guy wondering how he is going to cope if he lets his love interest go but at least Westlife can somewhat sell it? Decent song.

But yeah, this was a pretty good week, I don't think it's worth doing worst of the week so let's go straight to best to of the week, that's going to S Club 7 for "Bring It All Back"...yeah, it's an empowerment song but it's one that made me smile.

ARIA Top 50 Singles Chart. 21st September. The One With references to Nicole Kidman

 Nopreamble this week because there's ust not much to say, as per usual, it's "Choosin' Texas" by Ella Langley ruling the roost at number one, it's pretty much had sales and streaming on lock every week and that may not change until Taylor Swift's new single that's being released on Friday.

The top six held position with "Rein Me In" by Sam Fender and Olivia Dean at number two, "Man I Need" by Olivia Dean at number three, "Ordinary" by Alex Warren at number four, "Boston" by Stella Lefty at number five and "Stupid Song" by Olivia Rodrigo at number six. 

Unfortunately "Earrings" by Malcolm Todd rebounded two spots to number seven while "Love Me Not" by Ravyn Lenae returns to the top ten up three to number eight (seems faitly endemic of what is wrong with the charts), it did force "Loser" by Tame Impala back two slots to number ten and "The Cure" by Olivia Rodrigo down two to number ten.

Losers

So the biggest loser this week was Bruno Mars wth "Risk It All" down twenty four to forty three and "I Just Might" down fourteen to forty one.

Meanwhile "Fever Dream" by Alex Warren down ten to forty nine.


Drop Outs

So we do have two drop outs this week with the biggest being "Dai Dai" by Shakira and Burna Boy (miracle it lasted this long on the top 50, the other being "My Body Isn't Ready" by Sombr.


Gains

There isn't much in the way of gains this week with the biggest being the eleven place gain for "Stop the Wedding" by Ashe to thirty six.

Re-Entries

Just the one return this week with "Undressed" by Sombr back at number forty eight. 

New Entries

14. "Nicole Kidman" by ADELA

So I still don't like "Ain't in LA" all that much, it's still this wispy insubstantial song that is below the grade of song that Adela is capable of as proven by her EP last year "Mr Provocateur" and look this is only slightly better than "Ain't In La" because it yet again feels like she's playing down to what her label thinks are acceptable non challenging standards for the mainstream with that sample amd that cooing vocal delivery that plays more for Ariana Grande. Ugh. I think I am going to skip this one too. 

That wraps our week. Next week...well I would have said something from Miley Cyrus but that doesn't seem likely so we'll have to see.

Pretty Fly (For 1999), 19th September. One More Tasty Chance Everywhere

 Alright, let's get this party started because we have a new number one, knocking Pearl Jam's "Last Kiss" from number one is Lou Bega's catchy as hell "Mambo No. 5", now this song is selling like hotcakes as it climbed the six places to reach the top of the chart summit.

It had the impact of pushing "Last Kiss" by Pearl Jam back to number two as it just couldn't compete on sales and places "If Ya Gettin' Down" by Five down to number three in an awkward place...it's run for the top might be over at this point.

Slipping one to number four is "When You Say Nothing at All" by Ronan Keating while "Genie In a Bottle" by Christina Aguilera climbed one to number five.

It pushed "Boom, Boom, Boom, Boom!" by Vengaboys down one to number six while the big loser in all the reshuffling is "All Star" by Smash Mouth which tumbled three places to number seven. 

Rising one spot to number eight is "Wild Wild West" by Will Smith while up four to number nine is "2 Times" by Ann Lee, still not a fan of "2 Times"...just sounds a bit twee to me but anyway.

Finally slipping two to number ten is "Sweet Like Chocolate" by Shanks & Bigfoot.

Losers

So we begin with "Westside" by TQ diving ten slots to forty nine while "Love's Got a Hold On My Heart" by Steps fell seven to forty four. 

"Animal" by Jebediah slipped nine to forty.

Former number one "Kiss Me" by Sixpence None the Richer tumbled ten to thirty one while "Nookie" by Limp Bizkit fell nine to twenty eight. 

Finally, Killing Heidi's "Weir" fell ten to twenty four. 


Gains

We got a decent amount of gains this week beginning with "She's So High" by Tal Bachman up from thirty two to thirteen. 

We also saw Enrique Iglesias get a nice twelve place boost to fifteen with "Bailamos" off that debut last week (More on the Iglesias family in the new entries) while the absolutely excellent "Unpretty" by TLC rose from twenty nine to sixteen this week. 

"When I Grow Up" by Garbage jumped seven to thirty five.


New Entries

Six new entries starting most interestingly with...

50. "Forgiven" by Ben Harper and The Innocent Criminals

Ben Harper is an American singer song-writer and multi instrumentalist, he has been active in the music scene since 1992. This particular song coming from Harper's album "Born to Shine" and well...I am not a fan of the production here especially when the guitars somewhat bury Ben Harper's vocals in tbe mix and leaves the song feeling somewhat underweight.whch is a shame because the content is actually really damn good, the narrator is opening themselves up to forgiving whatever this other person has done and giving this perosn space to come back into the narrator's life. 

I wish this was better that's all. 

46. "One More Chance" by Julio Iglesias Jr. 

So we have another member of the Iglesisas family on the chart, this time it's Julio Iglesias Jr who is the son of Julio Iglesias and brother of recent chart debutant Enrique. Julio Jr's song here has a lot of elements that do work like that incredible backing vocals from the woman at the beginning and the slow build but I feel like it's Julio Jr's vocals that are the problem here, they just don't impress me, they sound like somebody who has been smoking twenty packs of cigarettes a week and that's a shame because I really like everything else about the song here. Not going to lie...bit disappointed. 


45. "Tasty" by Ilanda

First of three Australian songs this week comes from Ilanda, with this the follow up to "It's Our Time" and well.. this song is somewhat worse even if this sounds likr an *NSYNC song with more sound effects than is necessary and I do suspect that this song is all about getting the freak on between the sheets aka eating bis partner out and he likes her being tasty and nasty at the same time which makes the production feel somewhat less sexy...actually screw that...makes the song feel horribly gross and not as sexy as anyone in Ilanda thinks...eww...let's move on.


39. "Everywhere You Go" by Taxiride

Oh hey, it's the second single from Taxiride and given how much I think "Get Set" is great, I was hoping that the second single would be as good and you know what? I think this does get there, this is a soaring pop rock song that still features some pretty terrific harmonies and a sticky central hook, also this song goes through some gear shifts and changes in sound that make this song somewhat compelling melodically. Also the content is pretty sweet with it all about reassuring a person that no matter where they go, somebody will always be with  them in spirit without holding them back. First really damn great song of the week and Taxiride are on fire right now! Check this out.


26. "Bills, Bills, Bills" by Destiny Child

The newcomer to the ARIA top 50 of the week is Destiny's Child...an American R'n'B girl group out of the good old US of A, they've had two previous singles peak outside of the top 50 in Australia with this single from their second album "Writing's on the Wall" being the first to chart inside the Australian top 50 and I hate saying but this song is kind of lousy, I just hate how slimy and kind of gross this beat sounds paired with the voices of the girls, the only one who can remotely sell this is Beyonce who proves to have some serious vocal chops but yeah, they can ask others to pay their bills because I ain't comng back to this. 


17. "Miss You Love" by Silverchair

Finishing a long week with the newest single from "Diorama" by Silverchair and it's probably one of Silverchair's better ballads especially with the way instrumentation allows for Daniel Johns vocals to shine here, he sounds incredible. As for the lyric cntent of the song, its aimed at discussing the societal expectations of what showing love looks like and what affection looks like emotionally or feeling numbness. Really,there isn't that muh to say givn how good the song is. Check it out.

That wraps thhe week with the worst of the week going to "Bills, Bills, Bills" by Destiny's Child. Best of the week is going to "Everywhere You Go" by Taxi ride but it was a close go between it and "Miss You Love" by Silverchair.

ARIA Singles Top 50 Chart Review. 14th September. The One Where AI Messes Up Sun Dreams

Alright diving straight into the top ten where for yet another week, it's 
"Choosin' Texas' by Ella Langley at number one and there's no end in sight for this song's reign at the top especially now with a Drake and Don Toliver remix on the way (I have heard some of it...it's not good). 

The top six remained the same with "Rein Me In" by Sam Fender and Olivia Dean at number two, "Man I Need" by Olivia Dean at number three, "Ordinary" by Alex Warren at number four, "Boston" by Stella Lefty at number five and "Stupid Song' by Olivia Dean at number six.

Rebounding one slot to number seven is Tame Impala's "Loser" which swapped places with "The Cure" by Olivia Rodrigo. "Earrings" by Malcolm Todd and "Self Aware" by Temper City both held position at nine and ten respectively.

Losers

So we did see "ILoveItILoveItILoveIt" by Bella Kay fall thirteen to thirty while "Animal" by Katseye continues its slow tumble down nine to thirty one.

Drop Outs

So we did have four songs drop out with Sombr's "Undressed" perhaps the biggest of the four and he did take "White Keys" by Dominic Fike and "Die on this Hill" by Sienna Spiro with him so that's all good. Also taking its exit is "Weren't for the wind" by Ella Langley.

Gains

So our gains are an odd mix, Bruno Mars saw sizeable gains for both "I Just Might" and "Risk It All" due to his tour of Australia. "Risk It All" climbed nineteen slots back into the top twenty at nineteen while "I Just Might" jumped nine slots to twenty seven. 

Adela's "Ain't in LA' climbed twenty seven spots to be the biggest gainer of the week and breaking into the top twenty at fifteen. 
Also breaking into the top twenty is "Midnight Sun" by Zara Larsson up nine to seventeen. 

Re-Entries

So two songs returned this week with Sombr's "My Body Isnn't Ready" back at number forty nine and "APT" by Rose and Bruno Mars back at forty four. 

New Entries

Two new entries this week beginning unfortunately with...

50. "Moving to the Sun" by Hugel, Imael Angel and Ultra Nate

So in the last few weeks or so, ARIA made a change to the charts that banned tracks deenmed to be 100% AI from the Australian charts, any tracks that have an element or two of AI in them hence i was surprised that this song showed up because this song started life as 100% AI track out of the notorious SUNO AI studios.
French producer Hugel heard the AI version and remade it from scratch in a stadio using actual instruments complete with Afro house grooves and adding vocals from 90s/2000's act Ultra Nate  to the song so hence ARIA allowed it to chart as a result and well...the song still sucks even with the fact it was rebuilt by humans mostly because the lyrics still have that very AI feel to them and there's only so much that Ultra Nate can do here vocally to make the lyrics make sense because what the hell is "I'm moving to the sun, I did it all the time"?
Yeah, the sooner this song is off the charts the better for all concerned. Hugel needs to find better songs to jump on here because this ain't it. Fuck AI.


47. "Stop the Wedding!" by Ashe.

Took long enough for Ashe to land another charting song on the ARIA singles chart, she charted with a Niall Horan remix of her song  "Moral Of the Story" back in 2020  which peaked at number forty four. .Now she's got this song going viral and this song has one hell of an interesting premise that you don't often hear in a pop song, a song that's all about someone wanting to stop the weddbecause they realize that the relationship feels wrong and going to a commitment for life to that person would be a mistake and the production does play up some of the tension and drama around taking such a decision to stop or cancel a wedding with the faster guitars on the verses etc, I am not crazy abut the chorus of this song but you know what? It's solid enough song with a premise you don't often see on the charts which is probably why it's going viral right now.

That ends our week and "Stop the Wedding" by Ashe is the easy best of the week. "Moving to the Sun" by Hugel, Imael Angel and Ultra Nate is the easy worst of the week.

Next week, I imagine we'll probably see Adela with a song or two from her album chart...

Tuesday, 15 September 2026

Pretty Fly (For 1999). 12th September. Mambo Genie of My Castle in a Bottle No. 5 All I Ever Had

 We got a wild one this week, got two shiny new entries in the top ten this week and they both might be worth keeping an eye on so let's dive straight in, there's no movement at the top as "Last Kiss" by Pearl Jam continues to hold sway at number one ahead of "If Ya Gettin' Down" by Five at number two and "When You Say Nothing at All" by Ronan Keating at nunmber three. 

Smash Mouth are the first of our movers this week as "All Star" climbed to a new peak of number four., it switched places with "Boom, Boom, Boom, Boom!" by The Vengaboys at number five and appears to be on the way out.

Then we have the first of our two new songs inside the top ten with "Genie in a Bottle" by Christina Aguilera at number six, it's here thanks to sales really giving this song a huge lift.

Right behind it is the second of the new songs to debut in the top ten that being "Mamb No. 5" by Lou Beg at number seven, like with "Genie in a Bottle", I'll go into this song's quality in the new entries but this looks like a hit in the making maybe more so than "Genie in a Bottle" but we'll have to wait and see but right now those numbers are looking solid for a run at the top.

It did cause "Sweet Like Chocolate" by Shanks & Bigfoot to go slightly off down one to number eight while rising two slots to number nine is "Wild Wild West" by Will Smith. 

Finally "Baby Did A Bad Bad Thig" by Chris Isaak fell one slot to complete our top ten for this week at number ten. 

Losers

A lot of big losers this week with a couple of former top ten hits suffering big plunges this week, take "Man! I  Feel Like A Woman" by Shania Twain down from twenty six to forty five while "Say It Once" by Ultra down from forty three to twenty five.

"When I Grow Up" by Garbage slipped eight slots to forty two while "Saltwater" by Chicane featuring Maire Brennan fell seven to thirty eight, it was a similar story for Steps with "Love's Got a Hold of My Heart" down eight to thirty seven. 

Sadly, "Dig" by Mark Lizotte fell hard off it's debut down from eighteen to thirty three while "Livin' La Vida Loca" by Ricky Martin fell seven to thirty. 

Gains

So we did see a few gains and I am mostly fine with the big gains we got like "Bailamos" by Enrique Iglesias climbing twelve to twenty seven. 

"Smooth" by Santana feat. Rob Thomas up eleven to twenty two however the biggest gain of the week belonged to "Sing It Back" by Moloko which jumped from forty one to twenty four. 


New Entries

Five new entries this week beginning with...

47. "King Of My Castle" by Wamdue Project

So we're starting this week with what seems like our weekly new electronic music entry this time coming from an American music producer Chris Brann who goes under the name Wamdue Project with vocals supplied by Gaelle Adisson. 

Now this song is fascinating because it actuallt references Sigmund Freud's theroy about the unconscious being that the human ego is not actually free but is controlled by the unconscious mind (which to a degree does explain a lot about human behaviour recently) which makes it a shame that I am not really all that impressed by the production here, the vocals from Adisson are buried in the mix which is not great given I am not sure her vocals are all that impressive to begin with! The instrumentation doesn't change all that much or do anuthing all that interesting...ehh, we can do better.


44. "Mambo No. 5" by Latin Lou + The Mambo All Stars

See number 7 for my thoughts on "Mambo No. 5", this is just the same song with a Latin touch.

35. 'She's All I Ever Had" by Ricky Martin

So after the party that was the previous single "Livin' La Vida Loca", we're going into ballad territory with this song from Ricky Martin and while this instrumentally sounds great, I cannot help but think this strips Ricky of his charm and charisma, it  sounds like something Bryan Adams would have madei in the early nineties especially on the hook but at least Ricky sounds somewhat believeable here in that this woman in his life is all he has ever had or needed. It's fine, I just wish it felt a little less Bryan Adams and more Ricky Martin...just saying.

7. "Mambo No. 5" by Lou Bega

The second of three newcomers to the chart this week and it comes from German singer David Lubega Balemezi but goes by Lou Bega, he has taken a classic 1949 instrumental piece by Prado to remake it into this song and well...this song is just sold on Lou Bega's charisma and effortless charm alone and it makes sense considering how many women he has on his arm in this song. In the first verse he mentions he can't beer bust like last week before talking about women that he likes and how flirting is a sport, he sounds like he is having fun flirting with Angela, Pamela, Sandra, Rita, Jessica, Monica, Tina and Erica!

Then he gives out the instructions for a dance on the second verse and the song immediately tilts into being this insanely silly but fun dance song. I dig it, this is hilarious, check it out.

6. "Genie in a Bottle" by Christina Aguilera.

Third and final newcomer of the week is from American singer Christina Aguilera, she got her start around the same time as Britney Spears did on Mickey Mouse Club and is now releasing this song as her debut single and well...it's okay? I don't think its anywhere near as good as Britney's "Baby, One More Time" but I do like the piano and Christina is definitely a talented singer...there's more to her range than she shows on this song. 

As for the content, she's telling this dude that if he wants to get with her than he needs to pretend she's this genie in a bottle and has to rub the bottle the right way to let her out...the Aladdin trope in full there, only surprised there was no mention of giving the guy three wishes. In short, the song is fine, Aguilera has potential but she can do better.

That ends this week and while nothing was too egregious, I am giving worst of the week to "King Of My Castle" by Wamdue Project. "Mambo No. 5" by Lou Bega is getting the best of the week because yeah...that song is so much fun.

ARIA Top 50 Singles Chart. 7th September. The One Where There's Very Little To Say

 Alright, this one is going to be brief because there were again no new entries and...I am kind of disappointed by the fact that Alex Warren's "Emerald Eyes" didn't debut.but anyway let's get into the top ten where of course there's no change at the top where "Choosin' Texas" by Ella Langley rules the roost for yet another week, it's still a monster, sales and streaming.

Hence it held up easily over "Rein Me In" by Sam Fender and Olivia Dean at numbder two which effectively swapped positions with "Man I Need" by Olivia Dean which slipped back to number three. 

Same goes for Alex Warren's "Ordinary" jumping back up one slot to number four and "Boston" by Stella Lefty falling back to number five.

"Stupid Song" by Olivia Rodrigo held steady at number six while Rodrigo's other top ten hit right now "The Cure" rebounded two slots to number seven. 

"Loser" by Tame Impala also held firm at number eight although I really would like to see this leave the top ten quickly now. the same goes for "Earrings" by Malcolm Todd which fell two to number nine.

Finally remaining steady at number ten is "Self Aware" by Temper City.

Losers

Former number one "Animal" by Katseye fell nine slots to twenty two while "Oh yeah?" by Steve Lacy hit a thirteen slot rough patch back to twenty nine. 

Olivia Rodrigo's "Drop Dead' slipped eight to thirty five while F3miii's "Noble" suffered a ten place skid to forty nine. 

Drop Outs

So we did see four songs drop out, those being "Some of Your Love" by PartyNextDoor, "Petal" by Ariana Grande, "Baby Steps" by Olivia Dean and maybe the biggest drop out of the four..."Stateside" by PinkPantheress and Zara Larsson.


Gains

So most of our big gains were for older songs however "Midnight Sun" by Zara Larsson climbed ten to twenty six.

Bruno Mars tour of Australia also saw "I Just Might" rise fourteen off it's return to number thirty six. 

The two older songs that saw major boosts were "Back to Friends" by Sombr up twelve to sixteen and "Where is My Husband" by RAYE up ten to fifteen. 

Re-Entries

Four returns this week with album release impact seeing Alex Warren's "Fever Dream" back at thirty one although he also saw the return of "Carry You Home" at forty six.

Bruno Mars had "Risk It All" back at number thirty eight while finally Sombr's "Undressed" is back at fifty.

With there being no new entries to talk about that wraps this week. Next week could be as quiet as this week because unless streaming picks up...I do not see the new Miley Cyrus single charting but we'll have to see.
