17th June 2022: https://www.rte.ie/radio/2fm/clips/11419193/

Presented by Aindriú de Paor, who played all of the top 30 except this one:

Ne 17 Joji - Glimpse of Us

followed by all of the Homegrown Top 20 except these ones:

Re 08 2 Johnnies - Noel's Creamy Pints
14 16 D15 Yz Trigz - Counter Attack
07 19 Eden - Modern Warfare
Re 20 Sean Monaghan - An Dreoilin



24th June 2022: https://www.rte.ie/radio/2fm/clips/11421598/

Presented by Aindriú de Paor, who somehow managed to play all of the top 30, followed by all of the Homegrown Top 20 except these two:

Re 13 2 Johnnies - The Streets of San Francisco
20 16 Sean Monaghan - An Dreoilin



1st July 2022: https://www.rte.ie/radio/2fm/clips/11423862/

Presented by Blathnaid Treacy, who spouted so much drivel in between the music that she didn't have time to play, and in some instances didn't even mention, these hits from the top thirty:

06 03 Dermot Kennedy - Something To Someone
22 17 OneRepublic - I Ain't Worried
Ne 27 Drake - Sticky

and all these hits from the Homegrown Top 20:

02 02 Belters Onlly - I Will Survive
03 04 Cian Ducrot - All For You
04 05 Shane Codd - Rather Be Alone
05 06 John Gibbons - Edge of Seventeen
10 09 Coronas - Strive
16 17 Sean Monaghan - An Dreoilin



I'm baffled by the reappearance of "Slow Down" by Maverick Sabre in the 160th week of the Homegrown top twenty, the week ending 23rd June 2022. It had first appeared in weeks 21 to 29, well over two years earlier - but the rules for eligibility include "All singles and all albums that first publish the track, must have been released within 12 months."

And another bizarre show! PK back for the 2nd of 3 weeks and still getting the name of the chart wrong Twice during the first hour he interrupted the chart to look at the albums which involved playing Good 4 U by Olivia Rodrigo from her album at number 7 and then Harry Styles - Music For A Sushi Restaurant from the number 1 album. There was no mention at any point of any other albums or positions so I'm not sure what the significance of these was. He made it sound like the album chart was looked at every week whereas it has never been mentioned in all the time I have been listening to the show, not even when PK was presenting it last week. Even more randomly he proceeded to play Don't Stop Believin' by Journey before the top 2 simply because like RUTH it had become a big chart hit after being used in a TV show. As a result he didn't have time to do the Top 10 countdown ahead of the number 1.

The chart host doesn't sound very good.

It's good that there's no ACR on this chart. I'm not sure if I've asked this before, but who compiles the chart? If it is the OCC I wonder if the publisher of UKChartsPlus would be able to obtain the rights to publish it (and therefore get the older charts too).

No, there is ACR on this chart. Billboard's Ireland Songs chart alone confirms this:

It's the NI (Northern Ireland) Hit 40 that was posted above my comment that I was referring to, the one that still has Kate Bush at number 1. It looks like there's no ACR used on that chart. I'm curious about who compiles it.

My sincerest apologies. It does look like streaming is incorporated unlike the Scottish chart.

[braindeadpj]

Kate is no.1 on the OCC Irish chart too this week (https://www.officialcharts.com/chart...singles-chart/) even though it does include ACR, meaning either a) Kate increased in streams in Ireland during the previous 3 weeks thus resetting the SCR or b) is streaming/selling enough in Ireland to be no.1 even on ACR.

If you let me know who compiled it I can ask.

..
49 GRADUATION KANYE WEST 32

The No. 50 is PIANO MAN - THE VERY BEST OF BILLY JOEL which has a listed peak position of No. 1. While this is true and predates the OCC's involvement in the Irish charts, a lot of the other peak positions that they credit outside of No. 1 are not correct. U218 has been number 1 since Billy Joel for instance so it's not like they couldn't have noticed, as has Teenage Dream. The Beatles 1 was a huge No. 1 hit. It would make more sense to tell us what their 2022 peak position to date is.

[Shakyfan]

I searched and didn't find it. Good spot !

It was already on my spreadsheet and I didn't have to add it this week so I knew from that that it had entered previously!

The chart host doesn't sound very good.

That would be "PK" (Paul Kennedy) on the NI Hit 40 - while last week on the Official Chart Show on 2fm the truly dreadful Diarmuid O'Brien was back for a second go. As bad as before, if not worse - with so much extraneous, inane and repetitive waffle in between the hits, more even than from Blathnaid Treacy on her worst days. This is the link to listen again, if anyone wants to undergo such torture:

https://www.rte.ie/radio/2fm/clips/11426144/

Hit songs are typically shorter now than they used to be - such that Aindriú de Paor was able to play almost fifty in the three hours when he sat in just a fortnight earlier. Although the vast majority of what was in the charts then is still there now, Diarmuid only played forty, skipping (but at least mentioning) all of these:

12 12 Jax Jones ft MNEK - Where Did You Go
16 16 Dermot Kennedy - Better Days
14 18 Drake ft 21 Savage - Jimmy Cooks
24 28 Billie Eilish - Happier Than Ever

CLASSIC COUNTDOWN

Anyone know whether Kate is on ACR in Ireland and selling enough to be no.1, or did she avoid ACR by increasing streaming during one or more of the prior weeks?

Anyone know whether Kate is on ACR in Ireland and selling enough to be no.1, or did she avoid ACR by increasing streaming during one or more of the prior weeks?

I do feel like Running Up That Hill would be hovering more around the top 3/5 if if were on ACR with LF System at #1.

[braindeadpj]

So does that mean (without ACR) Harry would be no.1?

I often read czb's criticisms of some of the Irish chart show presenters in amazement but nothing prepared me for this week's NI Hit 40 show which I finally got to hear last night having been out on Sunday afternoon.

Despite having stood in for 2 weeks already PK seemed to get worse this week. First major gripe was the lack of actual introductions and links between songs. In fact after introducing the number 40 we didn't hear from him again until after the number 34 had finished. At this point he launched into the album chart again and played..... Green Green Grass from the number 5 album (and which would be played again at number 6 on the singles chart) and afterwards mentioned that he would be playing a track from Paolo Nutini's number 1 album later. After Deep Down was played at 33 we didn't hear from PK until after Joji when he introduced Je M'appelle as being next on this morning's countdown. The chart continued until the top 20 in much the same vein and only for Shazam I would have missed the number 28 as it was missed off the show's playlist and again there was no mention of it other than the position jingle.

Ahead of the Top 20 PK moved back to the albums and referenced all the legendary artists in the current Top 40 before playing Another One Bites The Dust from "the Best of Queen" and trying to figure out why they are all back in the chart. Then we had a track from Paolo Nutini's album (Through The Echoes).

After playing the number 3 song PK asked could Kate Bush stay at number 1, could Harry Styles climb back to the top or could something else go straight in? And to keep us in suspense he then randomly played the most streamed song ever on Spotify - Ed Sheeran - Shape of You

Like last week there was no time for a Top 10 countdown - by this stage they even seemed to be cutting many of the songs short.

Thankfully DJ Hix returns next week. Although he does regularly break from the chart it's to play new tracks / breakers and he clearly identifies them as such.

Somehow I just knew, as soon as I saw the chart published last Friday afternoon, that this was the one Blathnaid Treacy would completely ignore in the Official Chart Show later than evening:

58 24 Metallica - Master of Puppets

However, she played everything else in the top thirty in the right order, then all of the Homegrown Top 20 except these four:

02 02 Belters Onlly - I Will Survive
06 04 Shane Codd - Rather Be Alone
Ne 11 Eden - Balling
Ne 14 49th & Main - Up To Something

The link to listen again: https://www.rte.ie/radio/2fm/clips/11428702/

Ne 14 Ryan Ennis - Close
Ne 16 49th & Main - Up To Something

Note that these two are the wrong way round in the above post - they should be:

Ne 14 49th & Main - Up To Something
Ne 16 Ryan Ennis - Close

[CZB]

While searching for something else on the Official Charts Company website just now, by chance I discovered a commentary on the latest Irish top fifty:

https://www.officialcharts.com/chart...t-hill__36956/

It begins with the observation that:

" Kate Bush makes it six weeks at Number 1 on the Official Irish Singles Chart with Running Up That Hill, as LF SYSTEM close in with Afraid To Feel. The 1985 single still hasn’t budged from its place at the top, but it finishes just 500 chart units ahead of Afraid To Feel at Number 2."

I'm not really sure what that equates to in "old money" - but it certainly makes it sound as if they are pretty close together....
