Listened to the HAIM album this week and well, let's just say i wasn't that into it. 

 

Daydream being in the top 20 for 18 weeks, but only peaking at #11 

I've heard a few singles here and there from them but they didn't grab my interest until I Know Alone. I listened to snippets from the first 2 albums and only grabbed 3 tracks from each, meanwhile with Pt 3 I think 9/16 are generally solid  So at least they seem to be improving.

 

Daydream was really unlucky everytime it sat in that spot  But the funny thing is despite its underwhelming peak, it's definitely in my 2020 top 20 at the moment. It actually has a chance to repeak right before it retires now that the album is out.

Foxes out of top 5, but she had a great replacement (I think I like Foxes song a little better though)

Is James Bay new song out already?

Save a Kiss with potential to debut is great, I prefer Spotlight though

I have the same preferance for now

Yep it came out last Thursday

Spotlight is cute but it can't compete with gorgeous  Also I like the radio edit more, the album version is a little too long.

Rain On Me losing that #1, at least they've had a great run at top. 

 

HAIM having a cute debut. I'm glad Chvrches is getting a recover

For sure

 

Well... about that  (x2)

In your eyes a few weeks from retirement 

Power stable & Watermelon sugar having a little boost 

It's gonna be really close for IYE, there's a decent chance it could get unlucky & end at 19 weeks

Well... about that  [2]

The Superior HAIM song debuting this week.  

 

Hope Watermelon Sugar rebounds now, and it's a sign of times to come.  

It came and went real quick due to all the new entries  Don't Wanna is definitely not coming for I Know Alone!

 

Well... about that  [3]

Imma need Dua Lipa and Zara Larsson to debut! Wow, "Rain On Me" truly slays your countdown!

They did  And pretty much this whole section

 

[JGibson]

11/25

 

James Bay debuting 

[potent]

Let me give Easy some more listens, I heard it a few times and honestly wasn't crazy about it, but hopefully it grows on me

Great top 3 debuts, need to hear that FTP one

Inside Out is a good single choice

Dont Wanna out already though

CHVRCHES going to be out soon too, I thought maybe they'd serve more longevity (although they didn't in my chart lol)

[Alldeezy]

14/25! 

[Kevin2803]

Jessie, Zara & Dua debuting 

 

The Aces - Queens of peaking just one or two spots below the top 10 

[jbstatic23]

I like the new entries! 

[Mezik]

Your top-five is just stellar, 5/5.  

 

So many songs tumbling this week, but I am all for it if that's how Dua debuted so high/  

 

Still fail to see how people like 'I Know Alone' over 'Don't Wanna' ... like I just can't listen to IKA as frequently as Don't Wanna..  

[Mr. Loco]

One of the best is a highlight from 00s, I'm not sure if I like it more than Teenage Dream tho, but are great pop pieces 

Rain on me still top 2 

In your eyes still has enough power for retirement, it would really be a shame if it stayed with 19 weeks 

[Green]

High debut for Dua at #8   

 

One of the Boys   Lost is one of my favorite songs of the album

It already started growing on me. I was a little underwhelmed the first time around but after that I was enjoying it more. Plus "this house is on fire, WOO!" was stuck in my head for most of the week.

It's fine but I was expecting better from the instrumental snippet they posted. The song could've been trimmed down.

They didn't really have a lot of other options, honestly 

3 months is pretty good for a random quarantine single at the end of an aleady dead era  At least it seems like we're getting a 2020 release for sure so they'll be back for blood.

Well now Daydream can't relate  Meanwhile MPITTKM is definitely not gonna repeak.

Now match me by putting all 5 on your countdown

 

Don't Wanna is good but I Know Alone gives me that buzz!

Period  I think TD is just a little weaker, I'd actually say OOTB had slightly better single choices as well. 

 

I hate to say it might actually happen

Foxes, Gaga/Ariana, and Aly & AJ still in the top 5! Ellie Goulding and HAIM still holding on well. 

 

The Killers retiring tomorrow! 

[JGibson]

13/25

[potent]

Foxes made it into the top 5 again, even if she probably won't go any higher

Good to see Ellie and Jessie climbing within the top 10 too, and Troye getting a good debut just outside of it

I'm really liking My Own Soul's Warning these days, not as good as Caution but it's pretty close imo, I wonder if it can get a chance to go top 10 when their album comes out

Didn't know Ashe had released something new, let me check it out

Honestly Grouplove probably won't debut on my countdown with anything else, Inside Out is cute though

 

[Lord Of Countdown]

12/25

 

Glad to see "Joan of Arc" snatched a week at #1! <3

[jbstatic23]

Harry resurging? 

 

Rain On Me's longevity here is impressive!

[Brandon]

??????????? & ????? ?? ??? ??? ?? 

[Kevin2803]

The Aces finally climbing into the top 10 

 

Easy could MAYBE debut on my countdown, too 

[Mr. Loco]

In your eyes still holding on 

Watermelon sugar rising some spots 

Codes is a highlights from the album, it deserved to be a single 

[Mezik]

No Taylor yet on your chart?    

 

As usual, your upper half of your chart is still flawless - Aly & AJ is serving longevity.

 

Is Harry going to see a second-coming?  

[Green]

Watermelon Sugar climbing again 

 

I liked the new Troye song

Easy is cute, so nice debut
