13/25! Joan

[Mezik]

So I can't even comment on anything else, because you got me obsessed with Joan of Arc on the Dancefloor.

The production is everything, the sultry vocals, the killer chorus.

I truly am not worthy of such an impeccable pop song. It is amazing, Aly & AJ came and served.

[Mr. Loco]

In your eyes kicked from #1 

Blinding lights retires & Physical is close 

Taylor Swift has had only 8 songs reaching the top? She's had 14 songs at top of mine 

[Pinkoverblue]

13/25

 

Aly & AJ getting to the #1 spot! (Though they're barely staying on with Attack of Panic) Love the debuts, both so good. Simmer and Honest getting closer to retiring  

[Green]

Great debut of Watermelon Sugar   

 

I liked that Foxes song

 

Blinding Lights had a great run   

[Kevin2803]

Aly & AJ finally at #1  

 

Foxes debuting  i didn't like it that much in the beginning, but it did grow on me a lot

 

Daisies really hit me this week  it has to debut in the top 25

[Remmy]

Joan of Arc #1 a certified banger

Absolutely  But that's fully expected of them by now

I didn't know FTP and TNAF released something, I kinda doubt they'll top Worst Nites/Pick U Up and Bury Us though

I heard some songs from Rina's album and it sounds like I could like them, but not sure yet

Joan of Arc by Madonna >>>

 

I tried her album once but I have to listen to it more before I decide, there were some pretty good tracks though, as I remember I really liked Cinnamon and Sugar on the Rim too

They didn't  But both songs are still good.

It really depends on which songs because she goes through several genres/sounds on the album

I forgot how that track sounded but it's cute... not much of a competition though

 

I feel like I've seen a good amount of people who either don't like or don't fully appreciate SOTR so I'm glad to see someone else thinks it's a highlight  Overall I'm very satisfied with her debut, there's not much I can complain about.

Physical is 100% making it

Well "luckily" for me, Florida has been getting warmer since like, early April

And that's that  They've been serving WAY too hard ever since they came back to music in 2017, it's absolutely insane... like I loved them as a kid but they're on a whole new level these days.

Well you've had soundtrack/droplet songs like Beautiful Ghosts & Only the Young, so there's been more opportunities on your chart  She would easily have over 10 if my countdown started during the Red era.

Both will not make it  Well, unless New Music Fridays continue to be pretty empty like this week's.

Daisies really hit me this week  it has to debut in the top 25

She could've hit a bit harder with her comeback single, but I enjoyed it on 1st listen and still do now  Just happy to finally have her back.

 

Maybe I'll give it another try  But don't expect it to make an appearance.

[JGibson]

8/30

 

ilomilo on-deck 

 

 

Rain On Me #1 

[potent]

Lamb's Wool is definitely good as I listen to it more, still haven't heard that TNAF song though

Looks like Dua is heading for retirement, albeit not as high as Blinding Lights but still great for her

Cute climb for Harry and great for Foxes, surprised Honest has lasted this long

Also feeling like I'm pretty low on new music...

[Kevin2803]

Another #1 debut for Lady Gaga & Ariana 

 

Ellie debuting + Foxes climbing 8 spots  

 

Daisies already gone 

[Alldeezy]

14/25!

[Mr. Loco]

I wonder how many of Gaga's earlier singles would've reached #1 if your chart had started sooner 
200 plays in a week  My most played artist of each week only gets around 20-30 plays 

Quote

Well you've had soundtrack/droplet songs like Beautiful Ghosts & Only the Young, so there's been more opportunities on your chart  She would easily have over 10 if my countdown started during the Red era.

That's right, I like to debut all songs that deserve to shine 
 

[Mezik]

 

Welp, it's over for Physical & BMH.  

 

Ellie debuted, Power is so good & far better than the other singles she's released during this era (if you can call this mess one). 

 

Your top two are pop royalty.  

[Topmaster 2]

That top 2 sis!

[Pinkoverblue]

Rain On Me debuting at #1

 

Foxes getting a big jump on the countdown. Aly &* AJ still holding on well

FUN FACT 1: For the 1st time this year, women have completely taken over the top 5.
FUN FACT 2: "Chromatica II" is the 2nd ever interlude to appear on the Most Played Songs list,

following 2018's "Tension (Interlude)" by BØRNS. The power of an amazing transition!

3rd time someone has passed 300 plays in a week (only after Taylor Swift & Allie X.)
FUN FACT 4: Gaga missed the Most Played Artist record by just 3 scrobbles (Taylor hit 341 when 'Lover' dropped last August.)

She is

Well it didn't start feeling old for me until maybe 2 weeks ago. Very great replay value, especially thanks to Queen Georgia Nott

Yeah it's getting a bit rough  And now plenty are too afraid of releasing right now when there's way bigger issues going on, which is understandable.

I think Just Dance, Poker Face, Paparazzi, all 3 from The Fame Monster, Born This Way, Judas, The Edge of Glory and maybe You & I would've made it there. So she'd have 19 in that case 

I used to be the same way back when I first started

I'd love to be as generous but I feel like keeping this chart singles-only is the way for me to go

Depends on what your definition of over is  They're not leaving yet, but they're also not coming close to their peaks or anything like that.

 

For sure  I'd say Close to Me might be a little better - aside from that, it's not a competition.

 

Aly & AJ and Gaga & Ari, two incredibly powerful duos

It's a fun one  I've heard other songs before but they didn't grab me like this did. Their album was supposed to come out today but they pushed it back a week, RIP...

Hate Me & Worry About Me didn't make it here, Flux started in the bottom 3 and I feel like Close to Me appeared at a similar position, so it's definitely one of the stronger debuts of the era

Simmer likely won't unless new releases keep slowing down, Physical will definitely retire.

[JGibson]

10/25

 

ilomilo debuting 

[gagacasanova]

Miss Chromatica dominating. and the second interlude making it on the chart. we love a good transition.
