So this week feels odd, sure the top ten is reasonably stable especially at the top with "Man I Need" by Olivia Dean still holding the number one spot mostly thanks to streaming because it's not dominant on sales or Youtube.
"Fate of Ophelia" by Taylor Swift spends yet another week at number two as it still has some consistent streaming, the same applies for "Golden" from K-Pop Demon Hunters at number three.
"Ordinary" by Alex Warren bounced back up one spot to number four thanks to some resurgence on streaming. The same can be said for "Where is My Husband" by RAYE which also gained one spot to number five.
Both songs pushed past "So Easy (To Fall in Love)" by Olivia Dean which fell back two slots to number six
Disco Lines and Tinashe hold steady at number seven with "No Broke Boys", a song I am really starting to get sick of...this might make my worst hit songs list.
The hold steady was also in place for "Nice to Each Other" by Olvia Dean at number eight.
Then we have what ARIA have said is a new entry but I am going to call a re entry because it's "I Run" by HVN (Haven) just replacing the AI vocals with real vocals from Kaitlin Aragon. I am going to be blunt here and say that Kaitlin's vocals do not work on this song at all...anyway it's in at number nine.
Finally holding onto the top ten by rising one spot is Sombr's "12 to 12" but I do not see that lasting.
Gains
Only major gain this week is "Phantom" by EsDeeKid and Rico Ace up ten to thirty and "Messy" by Lola Young up seven to forty three.
Re Entries
So like I said "I Run" returned in the top ten at number nine for HVN and Kaitlin Aragon but we do have three other returns this week. starting with Hozier's "Too Sweet" at number fifty, "Good Luck, Babe!" by Chappell Roan at forty eight and "Espresso" by Sabrina Carpenter at forty six
Losers
:I am sad that "Rein Me In" by Sam Fender and Olivia Dean isn't getting the traction it so richly deserves as it slipped eight to forty nine.
Tate McRae saw "Nobody's Girl" slip nineteen spots to thirty eight while "Do It" by Stray Kids slumped fourteen to twenty four (good, that song sucks)
Drop Outs
We saw five drop outs this week with "Anything but Love" and "Trying On Shoes" leaving for Tate McRae while "The Life of A Showgirl" feat. Sabrina Carpenter and "Father Figure" got rissoled for Taylor Swift.
The only exit that I am disappointed about is "Lady Lady" by Olivia Dean, it's a good song that deserved better.
New Entries
One new entry this week, let's dive into
40. "Chanel" by Tyla
Brand new song from Tyla on the chart and I have to say I am always happy to see her here especially if the song is actually good like this one, now sure the percussion can drive people nuts and I am not sure Tyla's lazy ennounciation helps the song but you know what? There's a smooth coolness to the song that's all about her wanting her lover to treat her like she's a luxury, something he isn't always going to get. Good song.
Ditching best and worst of the week this week because only one song...next week is who knows? Maybe ARIA will give dispensation for the Christmas songs to flood the top 50, we'll have to see.
