[[ RECORD EXTENDED - Most M.P.Artist #1s: Taylor Swift (25) ]]
[[ RECORD EXTENDED - Most M.P.Songs #1s: Taylor Swift (19) ]]

 

  

 

FUN FACT: Taylor was the first artist to pass 6,000 scrobbles on my Last.fm this Thursday.

She is currently 980 plays ahead of #2, which is Lady Gaga with 5,046.
FORECAST: The next battle for #1 could be another big one as Friendly Fires are still going very strong, plus MUNA's album just dropped

and they will be gunning hard for a 3rd week on top. There's also plenty of new releases from people I love that could have a strong start.

 

Most Played Songs (Continued):
13. Friendly Fires- Offline [12]
12. Red Hearse- Red Hearse [12]
11. Natasha Bedingfield- Touch [12]
10. Taylor Swift- Paper Rings [13]
09. Lana Del Rey- Ride [13]

Lover song blocked  one of my personal favorites from album

Shame on You in top 10 I'm so glad Skylar is back  

Tove falling hard with both songs  

It's probably around #11 or #12 in my ranking  It's really pretty but she's not THAT girl for me.
Right  She always knows how to deliver... well, at least for her albums. Sometimes her random releases and soundtrack appearances aren't the best.
Well luckily Sunshine Kitty is on the way  So they should rebound (assuming both of them survive.)

Lover (album) slaying this week's chart 

 

Lover (song) debuting high  Me! >>>> Lover >>>> YNTCD

Well, it slayed pretty much every album-related chart in existence last week

ME! being your #1 is... a choice  So many people dislike/hate it but I still think it's cute, just a bit messy overall.
Mine would be: YNTCD > Lover > ME! ~ The last two aren't even in my top 10 from the album.

Good As Hell is so old but it's a great song, I hope it has a chance to do well here.

I don't think it's gonna happen  Red Hearse (song) would've had a strong chance though.

Right  I've heard it in several movies and stuff over the years. It's so wild how she got a #1 hit with a 2 year old song and now she could be coming for another smash that will be 3 years old next month. Honestly GAH probably won't last too long but at least it made the countdown, which Truth Hurts failed to do.

Thanks  Feels like I've been doing this for a bit longer, actually. Probably because this isn't my first countdown but it's easily the longest lasting one.

Doin' Time returns + Good As Hell debuting 

[MusicLoverDude]

Lover Top 2 and Normani/5SOS in the Top 10

[Brandon]

 

????' ???? ??????? & ????? ?? ??? ??? ? 

[Mr. Loco]

Lover stuck at #2  hope it gets to #1 next week 

Also HDYS falling a bit 

[Green]

"Doin' Time" returns and "Good As Hell" debuts 

[T.O.A.D.S.]

Ooh another chart where Doin Time returns ?

Lover is doing so well. Good for ha 

I hate to admit it but How Do You Sleep? Is such a bop

[Pinkoverblue]

11/25

 

 

Taylor still missing out on that #1 spot. Maybe next week?

 

Good debut from Lizzo. Doin' Time returning back into the countdown, hopefully to getting a higher peak. 

[potent]

Good as Hell debuting

Not much a fan of Doin Time, it's just a plain cover, it's nicely produced though I guess. I prefer the other 2 singles she released.

 

OneRepublic music this year is so bland and uninspired, I don't even feel like listening anymore

[Kevin2803]

Lover still at #2 & Lana returning

FUN FACT 1: This is the first time where 4 artists have crossed 100 plays in the same update! The 2 side lists (and AOTW)

were very competitive all week long, while Friendly Fires & MUNA were the only ones fighting for #1 on the main chart.
FUN FACT 2: This week, Broods "Sucker" became the 3rd song of 2019 to pass 100 plays, and Foals "In Degrees"

became the 4th shortly after. Aly & AJ "Church" and "Star Maps" are still #1 and #2, respectively, with significant leads.

Probably not  It was Friendly Fires vs. MUNA this week and will likely be the same thing next time as well. Plus it doesn't help that I haven't listened to 'Lover' (album) as much as a whole, I've mainly just been picking a group of tracks to bop to.

Could be doing better but since it's not even in my top 7 from the album, #2 is great

Now why would you hate to admit it?  And this ain't even his first time releasing a bop!

It's cute  Plus it's nice to hear her do something more "upbeat". Doin' Time is one of the few songs from NFR I can revisit (NFR, Doin' Time, MAC, Happiness is a butterfly & California would be my top 5 in that order.) I know Venice Bitch is highly praised but it is truly a chore to sit through, sorry to Jack's production.

 

Yeah a lot of these recent releases have either been easy to ignore or I only care to play them once or twice, and Wanted is fine but definitely fits in the latter category.  I also HATE that they've been putting out so many singles that are less than 3 minutes long. Ryan needs to leave these alone when it comes to forming the album tracklist.

John Mayer + Billie debuting

How is Lizzo already dropping??? Sad to see Taylor lost that #1 spot chance... Tove Lo doing well with both songs.

[potent]

Good As Hell falling already

Well it might not peak too high on mine since I already played it a lot before it was re released. Still a great song though.

 

Billie debuting

I listened to Wanted and I think it was better than Rescue Me, but still pretty weak/forgettable for their standards.

Shake It Off was the first song to reach 8 weeks at #1 back then  Lover would be doing better if it was Fall or Winter time. Maybe it'll rise when the temperature goes down.

Well get on that immediately because it's really great

The song is fun though I've never been a massive fan of it or anything, plus the chart is highly competitive right now (especially the upper half.)

Well it's only one for now  I thought BATB was single #2 for weeks but it looks like that's Sweettalk My Heart since she immediately performed it on TV and gave it a music video. So I had to remove ha.

Truth Hurts is decent & GAH is nice but I wish she was focusing more on her latest album. I want Soulmate or Tempo to be the next smash - and there's even more options to explore after those. A majority of the CILY tracklist is better than GAH for me.

 

Not sure which one I prefer but yeah, I agree

[MusicLoverDude]

Hailee has a song called Afterlife AND a song called Back to Life? She really likes dead stuff  

 

Normani Top 6

 

Lover falling :(

 

Good Things Fall Apart just grew on me. Very late. Lol
