These are basically my 40 favourite songs! Updated weekly. The rule is that each song has to have been in either the Official UK Top 40 or the Vodafone Big Top 40. Enjoy!
This week Camila Cabello stays at #1 for a ninth consecutive week with Never Be The Same. Camila still has 3 of the top 4, Jax Jones' Breathe occupying the other, at #3. Mabel & Not3s climb two to #5 with Fine Line, and the same pair reach #12 with My Lover. Those are two songs gaining in performance for me each week, and i think the two artists have loads of chemistry and are great collaborators!
This week's highest of four new entries is Hailee Steinfeld, Alesso, Florida Georgia Line & Watt's Let Me Go. The track came out way back in September 2017 and I've loved it pretty much since release, meaning it's well past its peak in performance, which would've come in October or November. It could've reached around #3 had it charted then, but #9 is still a pretty good return for 5 months after release!
J Hus gets his first top 10 appearance with Bouff Daddy at #10, and there are four-place climbs for Sigrid and The Chainsmokers in the top 20, both tying with Not3s & Mabel as this week's highest climber. The Weeknd and Kendrick Lamar enter at #20 with Pray For Me, and Kojo Funds and Raye debut at #27 with Check. There is one more new entry: B Young's Jumanji at #34.
The lower reaches of my chart are starting to get a bit worse right now due to a lack of top-quality new entries, especially below 30, so i hope for more entries in the charts over the next couple of weeks!

Hey Calum! Great chart, as usual :). My favorite Camila song on your chart would be 'Havana'!. I love "For You" at #6, "Finesse" at #8 and "Let Me Go" at #9!! Those songs chart quite high for me, so it's great to see them on your chart as well :). Not surprised to see "Bad Things" once again, 54 damn weeks! Wow. There are plenty of songs I like on your chart that I haven't mentioned, such as: "River", "Let You Down", "Tip Toe", "Say Something" and more! Can't wait for your next chart! See you soon!
Hey Calum! I love seeing Camila stay at #1, #2 and #4, and 'Breathe' and 'Fine Line' completing the Top 5 is amazing as well. I love all 5 of those songs, and they've all reached Top 5 on my chart as well!
I like seeing 'Let Me Go' and 'Bouff Daddy' reach the Top 10 as well, and the climbs and debuts for 'My Lover', 'Strangers', 'Sick Boy', 'Pray For Me' and 'Check' are all really great as well.
Out of the debuts this week I'd rate them: 'Let Me Go' (76/100), 'Pray For Me' (90/100), 'Check' (81/100) and 'Jumanji' (61/100).
Have you heard the Black Panther soundtrack yet and, if you have, what do you think of it? I'm really liking it at the moment!
Overall, great chart again! Speak to you soon! :D
Hey Gameskiller, thanks for the comment! I'm glad you like most of my debuts and climbers!
no, I haven't heard it yet, I'm a bit bad with listening to albums soon after release as I don't often have the time to listen to one in full. I saw it had a huge effect on the Spotify charts yesterday though, so I have high hopes especially after seeing some of the artists on it! :)
'Pray For Me' and 'All The Stars' are definitely still the best 2 songs on the album by far for me, but it does have a good amount of other good songs on there. For now I'd give it an 8/10, but that could rise or fall as I listen to it more (not that I haven't already listened to it a lot). :D
Hey Calum! Amazing chart as usual. :)
'Never Be The Same' still being #1 is cool, but the best chart for your chart is 'Let Me Go' debuting inside the Top 10!
It's also nice to see 'Bouff Daddy' & here's my usual rating of your debuts: 'Let Me Go' (10/10), 'Pray For Me' (8/10), 'Check' (6/10) & 'Jumanji' (3/10).
I'm going to upload a new chart a bit later, so I'll let you & the others know in the group chat when it's ready!
See you soon.
Hey Piran, thanks for the comment! yeah, Let Me Go would've got much higher had it charted a few months ago, and I'm not sure how long it'll stick around, but to get to #9 after this long is still good! it's quite similar to when There For You finally charted last year, as that was past peak in performance but still got #9 too, although that wasn't quite as long after release. i cant wait to see your chart when it's up! :)
I like seeing "Havana", "Wolves", "Finesse", and "Let Me Go" in the top ten. "Wolves" is somehow still around on the Hot 100 to my surprise, but radio is probably the main reason.
Outside the top 10 region, I like "Let You Down", "Sick Boy", "Pray For Me", "Say Something", "Filthy", "Tip Toe", and "Bad Things".
Hello Calum!
I like the Top 10!
As for your debuts:
"Let Me Go" (Good)
"Pray For Me" (Great)
"Check" (Good)
"Jumanji" (Decent)
Great chart overall!
