Official Singles Chart Top 100 on 1/12/2023

We should all get 'Palestine Will Never Die' by Lowkey and Mai Khalil.  Let's get the Palestinian issue to the top of the charts.  Bring awareness to the 15000 people being killed in Gaza including over 8000 children by the Israel Armed Forces (IDF).

My top 5 this week

1. is it over now?- taylor swift

2. dance the night- dua lipa

3. on my love- zara larrson

4.cruel summer- taylor swift

5. houdini- dua lipa

Checking the Top 40, I notice it is simply a copy/paste of the 40 first songs from the Top 100.

Example for this week: #38, Jorja Smith - Stay Another Day shows in for the second week.

Last week (it's first appearance) was at #75... that is correct for the Top 100.

However, in the Top 40 it is its very first appearance, thus should be marked as [NEW], exactly like it was in the old chart.

If this continues like this, why then having 2 lists? Sorry to say but IMHO this should be changed.

Check out "Christmas Number One" by James Farrant. Available in all major digital stores, it's a new Christmas anthemic song on track to be amongst the classics!

Shakin Stevens should be higher 

I never understood the reason why the brilliant DARLENE LOVE never made the Top 20 or even top 10 with the beautiful BABY PLEASE COME HOME!!!

Such an underrated Xmas song!!

Always so happy to see LEONA LEWIS back in the chart for Xmas but really hope to see her with a brand new song and album soon!! Long overdue!!

With so many great Xmas songs taking over the chart this week, i am extremely happy to see the brilliant LOSE CONTROL by TEDDY SWIMS still climbing 7 places this week!!

Really hope to see SIA finally making the Top 20 this year with her brilliant SNOWMAN!!

Surprised not to see MIMI WEBB's brand new Xmas song making the Top 100 this week!!

Nor ELLIE GOULDING or JESS GLYNNE!!

BRENDA LEE already in the Top 15 so early this year!!

So happy to see that..love that song and she just as well released a new video with 2 of the biggest US country music singers!!

So happy to see so many Xmas songs back in the Top 40 this week with my 2 favorite tracks in the Top 10!! i am surprised to see LAST XMAS ahead this year of ALL I WANT...

And so over the moon to see THE POGUES making the Top 20 so early this year and fingers crossed their beautiful FAIRYTALE OF NEW YORK can finally claim the number 1 spot this Xmas or even before!!

I would have loved to see either PRADA or STICK SEASON claiming the number 1 spot this Friday!! LOVIN ON ME is nearly as bad as SPRINTER !!

Merry Christmas Everyone has got to be the worst Christmas song of all time lol

I really don’t mind most of holiday music here, but it does make the charts relatively uninteresting to follow throughout the next month, especially in this capacity.

Literally, nearly half of the songs in the Top 40 are Christmas ones already and this is still based on tracking for late November… 😐

Top 40 Rankings: https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/9cb87382b25de2d0f7d3871473092e9931d41638f0976efc4dd15d4b7fb2a43c.png

Man, I love ‘Houdini’ but the timing of its release and promotion was really bad for a lead single. Any momentum it has over the next few weeks is effectively going to be cancelled out by the huge festive takeover.

Hope it can at the very least recover and challenge for #1 again in the New Year!

‘Stick Season’ in the runner-up position is fine, but I really wish ‘Dial Drunk’ or ‘She Calls Me Back’ could’ve seen this level of success for Noah Kahan! 😩

Rest in peace, Shane MacGowan of The Pogues. I knew he was unwell, but him passing at only 65 still comes as a real shock to me, especially when he was released from hospital only last week.

Hopefully we can finally get ‘Fairytale Of New York’ to #1 this month (maybe even Christmas Number One?) as a tribute to him. My thoughts are with his family and friends at this difficult time! 🙏
