Hi there Rockmaker!
Nice to See "Choosin' Texas" at the top and "Be Her" right behind it! I wonder If she can replace herself at the top. I also Like that "Fever Dream" reaches the top 5, "iloveitiloveitiloveit" and "Drop Dead" reaching the top 10, the Michael Jackson Songs reaching a renewed success thanks to the "Michael" movie and all the top 40 Debuts are great.
Below the top 40, it's nice to See "Golden", "Stay Love" and "Boston" gain huge and the debut for "Hit The Wall".
Although I am a bit hesitant on charting Songs Like "Let Me Be" and "Another Day Old", due to them being made By AI and I banned AI-generated Songs entirely from my Chart.
Still Overall a fantastic Chart, Welcome Back! Am currently on my two-week vacation in Kazakhstan, but I did publish a new chart during vacation, due to bringing my laptop with me.
