Luke’s Top Tracks - Lorde dominates the top ten and spends a third week at #1

After an interesting and eventful week of streams, Lorde’s “What Was That” spends a third consecutive week at #1! The song appears to be turning into my personal song of the summer and is doing incredibly well! Following closely behind is a non-mover for Lorde’s “Solar Power”, again matching its same peak from summer 2021. And rounding off this week’s top three is a MASSIVE climb for Lorde’s “Perfect Places” at #3, reaching a new high following its former peak of #13 in 2021!

It’s been a huge week for Lorde; she occupies four spots in the top ten. An honourable mention goes to “Green Light” which reaches a brand new peak of #5 having previously reached #11. It is also this week’s highest climb, vaulting a mammoth thirty-six places; we haven’t seen a climb like that in a long time! But who could compete with Lorde? We’ve got some other impressive climbs this week, including;

• Lorde - Perfect Places (#3, up 21)
• Charli xcx - Sympathy is a knife (#7, up 10)
• Fontaines D.C - Bug (#21, up 12)
• Ethel Cain - Vacillator (#31, up 11)
• Magdalena Bay - Image (#35, up 10)
• Addison Rae - Headphones On (#39, up 11)

But it’s very unclear as to who will claim next week’s #1! We’ll just have to wait and see.
