Io's Weekly Top 100 - 02/03/2019

"7 rings" spends a third week on top of the charts, but only barely manages to hold off the debuting "bury a friend" by Billie Eilish. Eilish could score her first number one in the coming weeks as her first studio album approaches. "bury a friend" becomes her joint highest peaking song at #2, together with "WHEN I WAS OLDER", which drops to #3 this week. "Swan Song" becomes Dua Lipas first top 5 hit of the year, as the song shoots from its #9 debut last week to #4, overtaking "Nothing Breaks Like a Heart", which stays even at #5, and the waning "Sweet but Psycho", which drops to #6. Lipa is still waiting for her next solo #1, a feat she last achieved in February 2018 with "IDGAF". It looks as though Grimes run at the top is over, at least when it comes to competing for the top spot, as "We Appreciate Power" drops all the way down to #7, meaning the former #1 debut spends its first week outside the top 3. "DODI" impressively stays at #8 with a gain in performance, fending off "bellyache" which re-enters top 10, and this weeks top 10 closer "when the party's over", both by Billie Eilish, who lands 4 songs inside the top 10 this week, achieving that coup for a second time.

Gesaffelstein & The Weeknd drop to #11 with their collaboration "Lost in the Fire", still barely fending off MERO's "Baller los", which falls to #12 from its #10 peak. Post Malone continues rising up the ranks with his newest single "Wow." now being all the way up to #13. Similarly chart newbie JOJI keeps on steadily climbing up the chart, as "SLOW DANCING IN THE DARK" achieves a new peak for the fourth week in a row, this time at #15. Bring Me The Horizon & Grimes rise to #16 with "nihilist blues", which is traced by another skyrocketing collab in Sam Smith & Normani's "Dancing With a Stranger" which surges to #17. Another big winner this week is "Giant", the collaboration by former chart topper Calvin Harris and British singer Rag N Bone Man, who previously appeared on the charts with "Human". Calvin's third single shoots all the way from #51 to #20. The greatest gainer honors however go to J. Cole this week, whose single "Middle Child" debuted at #100 last week. The track zooms up an astounding 58 places, landing at #42.
