Luke’s Top Tracks — Ethel Cain is back at #1 following a huge release

Well, it’s been a huge week of change following Lady Gaga’s tremendous seven-week run at the top! Ethel Cain’s “American Teenager” vaults a huge thirteen spots, giving it a fourth non-consecutive week at the top. This comes following the indie artist’s entrance back into the spotlight following both the announcement of her second upcoming studio album and a huge vinyl release of her debut album, “Preacher’s Daughter”! This is indisputably the album’s biggest song and deserves its return; this marks its third consecutive year of taking the #1 spot, a huge new record. Following closely behind is a massive climb of nine places for Fleetwood Mac’s “Gypsy”, which now reaches a new peak of #2 following a rapid climb up the chart the past three weeks, matching the success of “Everywhere” which also peaked at #2! And rounding off this week’s top three is another climb for Chappell Roan’s “Pink Pony Club” which reaches a brand new peak of #3 on its twenty-ninth charting week, matching the success of “Good Luck, Babe!” and becomes her biggest sleeper-hit yet!

Who could threaten the success of Ethel Cain next week? While she’s taken the top spot with gusto this week, she still faces external pressures from other huge songs. “Punish”, another huge single of hers and previous #1, rises three places; she also sees massive climbs from “Onanist” (up 16), “Amber Waves” (up 12), “Sun Bleached Flies” (up 9) as well as many re-entries. Let’s also not forget this week’s highest new entry at #22 - “twilight zone”, from the deluxe edition of “eternal sunshine” is proving to be a big hit at the moment - can it gain even more momentum? We’ll have to wait and see.
