The Biggest Songs Of The Week

It’s a surprise no.1 this week as WizTheMc, bees & honey & Tyla all grab their first no.1 on my chart with “Show me Love” which climbs to no.1, dethroning Ariana Grande’s “Twilight zone” down to no.2. Tyla also has the highest new entry this week with “Bliss” entering at no.9. Better news for Ariana Grande as she remains at no.1 on the album chart, gaining an 8^th non consecutive week at no.1.

It’s a great week for the members of BLACKPINK as JENNIE has her biggest hit on my chart with “like JENNIE” climbing to a new peak at no.3. Meanwhile ROSE gains her 4^th top 20 single on my chart with “Messy” entering at no.15

It has been 25 years since I can recall listening to music in my childhood and therefore as a 25^th anniversary this year, songs which reach 25 years old may enter my weekly top 40. On this week, 25 years ago, Faith Hill entered the Uk charts with “Breathe”. She has a healthy new entry this week at no.26. Meanwhile Britney Spears with “Oops!...I did it again”, Mandy Moore with “Candy” and Watergate with “Heart of Asia” impressively remain in the top 40.
