MTE You used to need a pop remix (like Love Story and Shania's songs) to crack the top 10 as a country artist. Something changed in 2024 with Texas Hold 'Em, Bar Song, Austin, I Had Some Help and Taylor's (country) catalog smashing. This is the first song by a country artist to go #1 since Stand By Your Man in the 70s I believe, very impressive.

Here for this The Kill better be Top 10

Yeah I was surprised when the CFO of my company admitted to having botex, she looks amazing and I had no idea. You can't tell in many cases.

This is giving @nostalgia saying an actress will win an Oscar and then they lose or aren't even nominated.

Very few country songs have hit #1 in the UK so it's not surprising, she still had a good amount of hits globally considering her genre and her classics transcended their chart peaks.

Pretty amazing if it's 9 to 5 since it didn't even go Top 40 in its original chart run.

MTE 50 seasons and yet no big star Also I love Cheryl but her judging on a show called The Voice is kinda a mess, at least with X Factor you could defend her and say she had star quality but this…

Deserved for the Queen

Love both but NTLTC

I grew up in Barbados and remember when Rihanna first came out, it was definitely a huge moment for the island as previously the only artist that really had some success was Rupee. But I don't remember anyone caring about the BMAs Her rise was looked at favourably by most people but I also distinctly remember a lot of people saying she worshipped the devil as she started to get bigger It wasn't all praise unfortunately.

She's so global yet she couldn't even do 100M streams globally first week

The excuses Sabrina's albums before Emails are irrelevant and Dua not being gen z is not the reason her first week sales and streams are terrible. She's should've sold 200k minimum following an era like Future Nostalgia, the fact that she couldn't even do 100k proves she has no fanbase and her touring stats don't change the fact that she's very much a GP act who will struggle without hits, and she's not as global as you guys are acting.

Weekly Spotify debuts: Man's Best Friend - 176M outside the U.S Radical Optimism - 93M including the U.S I like Dua but I don't know why people act like she's this untouchable global force, she has bigger hits but that's it. She's a single artist with no fanbase, the fact that Radical Optimism flopped so hard globally following Future Nostalgia is a massive warning sign.

Not a new peak for Islands in the stream yet but 9 to 5 yeah. Crazy how it didn't even go Top 40 here but is still a huge classic. More proof that the charts don't mean ****. Speaking of…I like Rein Me In and both Sam and Olivia but 23 weeks at #1 for this is RIDICULOUS. Glad it's over.
