taylor and peggy

Ugh please

[AidanUnderYou]

9/10 of the Top 10 being women 

[IBeMe]

Dua isnt getting it sadly

[jamiko1230]

But read it's only around 1k difference. 😬 Wonder how.

 

Take it it's only 2 full tracking days? (Fri. & Sat.)

 

Dunno how Billie did w/ streams Fri. but didn't she fall pretty hard yesterday? Maybe they added remaining cassettes that weren't counted last week?

based on you and I are some of the members who know just how cursed Dua is when it comes to peaks. Billboard HATES our girl  

[Ivan_brit]

Release Cassettes Dua NOW!!!

Dance The Night Feels like #1

[mojitos]

i dont see how dua isnt getting it... billie streams were close to DTN last week but currently it just keeps falling more and more everyday, maybe vampire could get it with cassettes but i dont think olivia fanbase has the same mass buying power as dua's and the streams are far behind too

Omg haha but it's not Billfraud tho uh...UK getting a similar stench lately 😆.

 

Trying to be positive & put out different vibes/waves vs. last week.

 

Billie got ruthless Tues. I think. IF by Tues. Dua pulls ahead & no sign at all of Olivia/Taylor etc..dropping cassettes we're fine. 

 

As of now, Olivia seems pretty set in stone, throwing kitchen sink w/ that Sept 8th date.

I hope they send the Vampire cassettes this week  

 

If not Olivia, I hope Doja gets it over DTN, she's doing amazing on streaming platforms

You are so dedicated. Really hope DTN gets it because I would be curious for your reaction.

[BGood2Me]

Cmon Olivia

[Assassin]

I couldn't care less  Olivia & Doja both deserve it, sorry for rooting for the better songs I guess...?

Rooting against something happening implies that you do care very much.

[Bloodflowers.]

Charli XCX getting another UK hit

 

BRIT Awards better not rob her again 

 

Now we need Rina Sawayama to get pushed in the UK next!!

What's hard to read in "Olivia & Doja both deserve it"? Not my fault if the leading song is... Dance The Night so I have to take it into account in my wording

Once again implying that the leading song right now doesn't deserve it, PTTR wasn't even mentioned as a Top 5 contender in this update. This would be believable if it wasn't coming from, well you.

I personally think Olivia & Doja's songs deserve it more than the leading song in the race yes and what about it? I give my opinion if I want to and if you're not ok with it, you can just blacklist me, your "problem" will be solved  

 

Also, not sure how PTTR not being in the top 5 is irrelevant to the discussion, especially when it's #7 (+8) in the first midweek and #3 on Spotify UK. Whether it's currently inside the top 5 or not doesn't prevent me from hoping it can climb to #1
