We finally got some change to our top ten this week! Just a shame that this week also brought one of the worst songs to debut on the chart in recent memory but we'll get to that because let's get to the top ten where of course for yet another week "Ordinary" by Alex Warren remains at number one and really at this point, it's so strong on sales and streaming and while that is the case, I don't see anything getting near it.
However there is a new number two this week with "Undressed" by Sombr climbing nine places as it also has strong streaming, it's just a question of if it's sales can catch up to it's streaming. It did help push "That's So True" by Gracie Abrams back one to number three and "Pink Pony Club" by Chappell Roan to number four.
"Love Me Not" by Ravyn Lenae climbed up seven places to number five and seems to have some decent momentum behind it which I am absolutely delighted about. I still like this song a lot.
All that was enough to see "APT" by Rose and Bruno Mars slide two places to number six while "Birds of a Feather" by Billie Eilish held steady at number seven.
Finally looking to be on the way out of the top ten is "Die With a Smile' by Lady Gaga and Bruno Mars which stumbled two places to numnber eight while former number one "Messy" by Lola Young fell back one place to number nine.
"Beautiful Things" by Benson Boone continues to cling to the top ten like a poo on a string refusing to fall into the toilet but it did fall five places to number ten.
Gains
Sombr's gains continued outside the top ten as "Back to Friends" climbed seven places to number twelve.
Gracie Abrams tour of Australia sees continued gains for "I Love You, I'm Sorry", this time up fifteen places to eighteen.
Alex Warren's "Carry You Home" climbed eight places to twenty four which makes sense as people are looking to hear other songs from the artist currently at number one.
I don't really have an explanation for why "Stargazing" by Myles Smith is up twenty places to twenty nine or "Too Sweet"by Hozier is up sixteen to thirty two.
Losers
It would seem the public are finally done with Dasha's "Austin" so that's down eight to number 50.
Tate McRae's "Revolving Door" collapsed ten spots to forty. I am surprised this has stuck around this long considering how uninterested people have been in 2025 music.
"Sorry I'm here for Someone Else" by Benson Boone slumped seven to forty one while "Abracadabra" by Lady Gaga also slid ten places to thirty eight. "Iris" by Goo Goo Dolls fell nine to thirty three.
Finally and most unsurprisingly, "What Was That?" by Lorde tumbled twelve spots to twenty one.
New Entries
One new entry this week...shame it's...
31. "Blue Strips" by Jessie Murph
I was dreading this song turning up on the chart having heard what a few critics have had to say about it and yeah, let me add this blog to those critics because this song absolutely blows blue strips and blue whatever else...that's how miuch this song absolutely sucks, Jessie Murph sounds nasal as hell and that multi tracking tacked to her vocals isn't improving her "singing" in this revenge fantasy where she's wanting to get back at somebody and the instrumentation cannot sell any of it convincingly. This is one of the worst songs of the year to chart thus far. Please do not let this crap become a hit.
Yeah obvious worst of the week here. There's so much better music that could be charting instead of this like Tyne-James Organ's "One Way Ticket"
