We knew the time between Christmas and New Years would be unpredictable, but we didn't expect it to be this chaotic! In a stunning turn of events, Daina puts The Dead South into overdrive and gets "Banjo Odyssey" a #1 debut and "In Hell I'll Be in Good Company" at #3, blocking "willow" from a 2nd week at #1. Taylor Swift still had a good week though as her album, evermore, storms back against the holidays and takes 3 spots in the top 5 with "closure" getting her a record-extending 20th top five. "No TIme for Tears" returns to the top ten while The Kid LAROI earns Greatest Gainer as he soars 56 spots to his first top ten with "WITHOUT YOU" at #7. Aly & AJ earn their 3rd top ten with the explicit version of the 2007 song, "Potential Breakup Song", debuting at #8. "Santa Tell Me" is the sole holiday song in the top ten, clinging to #10.
Brian provides album bombs for both Lil Durk & Playboi Carti as they were the only artists to drop an album this week. Year-end lists also made some waves as "Head & Heart", "Dynamite", "Rain on Me", and "Summer Feelings" all re-enter the chart, all previously charting in the top 2 sometime in 2020. Tanya continues to discover Dua Lipa's first album as "Lost In Your Light" rises to #59 and "Hotter Than Hell" debuts at #47.
Next week only sees one new release, but it's major. "Anyone" by Justin Bieber looks set for a top 3 debut, if not #1, his first since "No Brainer" back in August 2018. Other than that, we have some small releases but nothing that will make a splash. It'll be Daina vs. Tanya as The Dead South looks to fend Justin Bieber off from the top spot. Can they do it? Can Taylor Swift play spoiler and finally earn a 2nd week at #1 with "willow"? Find out next week on the Braintree Top 40!
