My Charts - week 19 - Eurovision craziness

[heppolo]

Yes, the song has been a nice grower for me, I'm really enjoying it now. Though I still wish she would've used the operatic voice a bit more because I'm always here for opera meets Pop (or Rock).

I hope it may be used more in a live version, she has to win over the public vote after all against pretty stiff competition from the well-known male singers like Ott Lepland (Estonia 2012) and Stig (Estonia 2015). It's really an all-star Eesti Laul this year in terms of names at least.

I just saw that it only continues in February, that's a long gap! So fingers crossed she does some promo now, I would love to see her winning again. Though I imagine someone else will represent Estonia... there are many national pre-selections with many known names but it's often times the unknown people who win in the end.

Ok that's an amazing chart-run. The certs are based on plays right? What's your threshold? Because I tried the link below and it didn't work for me.
I thought of adding certs as well, but I think I'd either put it too high for anything to be certified, or I'd make it extremely easy instead. xD

Btw haven't checked anything K/DA / LoL related since they released that EP, I'll have to check the new stuff (it doesn't include the "original" KDA members I guess).

Yes, by far the most successful EP on my charts ever and I'm still not having enough of the five songs!
The link is not working, sorry. I need to re-work on the certification database and haven't had the time doing so yet.

But the certifications are not based on plays but points. My charts is points based... a weekly #1 on the album charts gets 20 points, #2 gets 19 points and so on to #20 getting 1 point. Gold for albums is 100 points (basically five weeks at #1), Platinum is 200 points, 2x Platinum is 400 points and so on. For singles it's a bit different, with #1 getting 40 points, #2 getting 39 points and so on... and Gold for singles is 250 points, Platinum is 400 points, 2x Platinum is 800 points and so on

Finding the right threshold is really difficult and I had to try out some things first and this is what worked the best for me over the years. Sometimes I'm still not fully happy with it, but overall it works.

Sadly, there were no new releases with K/DA ever since this EP came out which is sad, because the EP is awesome and I love the idea behind K/DA. I'm only familiar with a few other LoL related stuff, especially Burn It All Down with Pvris sounds great IMO.

Singles Top40

Spoiler!

We’re back from the Christmas break – Happy New Year to everyone and I hope you all enjoyed the holiday season!

Even though this week basically covers two weeks, it’s still far from being a busy week, as only three new entries find their ways to the Top40, while there are also six re-entries that come back, mainly due to some hype from the year-end countdowns. One of the new entries takes the lead and all things considered, it’s probably not the biggest surprise, as it’s Narben, the new single by Katja Krasavice. It’s a collaboration with newcomer Marwin Balsters, making Narben his very first chart notation, while it’s already Katja’s lucky 13th entry to date and third to top the charts following Friendzone and Raindrops. Speaking of the latter, the song is on track to become Katja’s most successful song ever, as it’s still staying at #11 and also gets certified with Gold this week.

A rather unexpected contender for this weeks top spot was Taylor Swift’s All Too Well (Taylor’s Version). The song peaked at #3 following its impact last year and rises back to its peak by jumping 12-3 this week.

Grimes’ Player Of Games stays at #2 and completes the Top3.

Other new and re-entries this week: The second highest debut of the week goes to When I’m Gone at #5, a collaboration by Swedish DJ and producer Alesso and Pop goddess Katy Perry. Surprisingly, this is only the second charts appearance for Alesso, who was previously part on Hailee Steinfeld’s Let Me Go (#4 in 2017), while the song is Katy’s 35th chart entry and highest since Never Really Over debuted and peaked at #3 in mid 2019. Just Look Up by Ariana Grande and Kid Cudi, a soundtrack single to a newly released Netflix movie, is the final debut of the week at #9.

As mentioned, there are six re-entries and the highest of these is the only one that isn’t linked to the year-end countdowns. The animated fantasy series Arcane: League Of Legends was already released on Netflix last november and while Enemy by Imagine Dragons & JID served as its title track and already made it all the way to #5 a few weeks ago, the series only makes its big impact to the charts this week, mainly with its soundtrack on the Album Top20 and some of its songs on the Bubbling Under chart. This also causes Enemy to return back to #15. Finally, the year-end countdowns bring back Demons Are A Girl’s Best Friend by Powerwolf feat. Alissa White-Gluz (#21), Monument (#22) and Unbreakable (#34) by Keiino, Shum (Шум) by Go_A (#28), and The Baddest by K/DA & Co. (#32) – though the last is actually also linked to the League Of Legends universe.

Other talking points this week: Besides the mentioned re-entries for some of 2021’s biggest hits, the year-end effect also kicks in for other songs such as Halsey’s I Am Not A Woman, I’m A God, that returns back up 15-8, Pvris & League Of Legends‘ Burn It All Down, that moves 24-23, Agnes‘ Fingers Crossed, as it recovers 37-31, and Glass Animals‘ Heat Wave, by increasing 40-37. There are further good news for FKA twigs & The Weeknd, as their Tears In The Club reaches the Top20 (25-20).

Taylor’s All Too Well is the biggest climber while Tiësto & Ava Max’ The Motto (21-33) and Angèle & Damso’s Démons (23-35) both drop twelve spots each as the biggest losers this week.

Album Top20

Spoiler!

Similar to the Singles Top40, the album charts is also not the busiest despite covering the last two weeks. It’s a mixture of some new arrivals, Christmas still having its impact, and some treats from 2021 – and the new, old number one definitely goes into the final category, as it’s Red (Taylor’s Version) by Taylor Swift that rises back up 3-1 for a fourth non consecutive week atop the charts and seventh consecutive week in the Top3. Other treats from 2021 are definitely If I Can’t Have Love, I Want Power by Halsey (5-3), the never-dying All Out EP by K/DA (14-6), but also Agnes‘ Magic Still Exists (18-15) and the compilation for the Eurovision Song Contest 2021 (19-16). Blackmore’s Night’s Nature’s Light (6-7), Anette Olzon’s Strong (9-8) and Taylor Swift’s Evermore (11-12) also hold up extremely well and were already extremely successful in 2021. Nature’s Light even gets certified with 2x Platinum this week, making it Blackmore’s Night’s very first release doing so.

As for Christmas releases, while their moves are all over the place, they are all still next to each other on the charts. Kelly Clarkson’s When Christmas Comes Around… stays really stable (8-9), though Blackmore’s Night’s Winter Carols already falls 2-11. Meanwhile, Saara Aalto’s Fairytale: Joulun taikaa makes a totally unexpected comeback at #10. The album was originally released in late 2019 as the first Christmas release by the Finnish singer, and following a rather random re-discovery, the album immediately re-peaks this week.

Finally, there are three new arrivals and especially one made a surprisingly big impact: the soundtrack for Arcane: League Of Legends. League Of Legends is actually a game that has been making impacts for over a decade now and it’s been already successful when it comes to music in the past, as K/DA is a virtual girlgroup based on that game. Following the release of its first animated fantasy series on Netflix, the soundtrack arrives at #2 with potential to even top the charts soon. Next up is German Medieval Rock band Feuerschwanz, who just released their tenth studio album Memento Mori that becomes their very first chart entry ever at #5. Last but not least, R&B singer Summer Walker also gets her very first chart entry as Still Over It is new at #14.

Bubbling Under

Spoiler!

It’s basically all about the Arcane: League Of Legends soundtrack on the Bubbling Under chart this week, as there are seven new entries and they’re all part of it. It’s still a very diverse list, as there’s a good mixture of artists – Bea Miller’s Playground takes the lead at #1, Pvris & Miyavi are new at #2 with Snakes, Bones UK’s Dirty Little Animals makes it to #3, and Denzel Curry, Gizzle & Bren Joy’s Dynasties and Dystopia debuts at #4. While these are the clear frontrunners, Woodkid’s Guns For Hire (#6), Sting feat. Ray Chen’s What Could Have Been (#8) and Curtis Harding & Jazmine Sullivan’s Our Love (#9) also made it rather easily to the list this week.

Besides the Arcane slayage, Alicia Keys owns all three other entries, as she keeps charting with Nat King Cole (1-5), Only You (3-7) and Plentiful feat. Pusha T (2-10).

Great re-peak for "All Too Well". I must admit that "Just Look Up" is just okay for me.

...

All Too Well really got me back over Christmas & also due to listening to it through the year-end countdowns. What a stunning song!
Yeah, I actually feel similar. Saw the movie over Christmas and really enjoyed it, but I got over the song rather quickly so a big drop is incoming...

Singles Top40

Spoiler!

Following their arrival right atop the Singles Top40 last week, Narben by Katja Krasavice and Marwin Balsters spends a second week on top of the charts, making it also the first chart-topper of 2022. This also gives Katja already her third number one song with two weeks atop the list each, as her previous number one hits Friendzone and Raindrops both already spent two weeks each on top last year. And speaking of Raindrops, the collaboration with Leony keeps charting well, too, and even returns to the Top10 this week (11-9). With 300 chart points, Raindrops also just became Katja’s most successful song ever, surpassing Highway (with Elif) from early 2020.

Katja’s strongest competition is a rather surprising one, as it’s the Queen of all Drag Queens, RuPaul. Ru released her new album Mamaru this week and while two songs already reached the Top20 last year, Just What They Want makes a stellar comeback at #2 now. The new single Smile also arrives at #12 this week.

Halsey’s I Am Not A Woman, I’m A God keeps rising back up the charts and jumps 8-3 this week to complete the Top3.

Other new and re-entries this week: A total of seven new and two re-entries are on the charts this week, and the highest of the new arrivals belongs to The Weeknd, as the Canadian singer has just released his brand new album Dawn FM. To go with the album release, he chose Sacrifice as its new single that debuts at #5, his highest appearance since Save Your Tears (with Ariana Grande) peaked at the same spot last year, and his 24th chart notation ever. Additionally, Take My Breath makes a comeback at #22, as the song is also part of Dawn FM. It’s a strong week for The Weeknd overall, as he is also featured on FKA twigs‘ Tears In The Club that jumps 20-11.

We’re just two weeks away from the release of Aurora’s new album The Gods We Can Touch and while Heathens (14-21) and Midas Touch (16-24) keep charting, the Norwegian singer gets an additional two entries this week, as she released two tracks at once as the final singles prior the album release. The Pomme assisted Everything Matters does slightly better by arriving at #13, while A Dangerous Thing just reaches the upper half by debuting at #20. This already makes The Gods We Can Touch Aurora’s most successful album ever, even though it wasn’t even released yet. Next up is Country starlet Maren Morris, who already had two successful album cycles with her debut Hero (2016) and its follow-up Girl (2019). It looks like she keeps going in a three years cycle, as Maren just put out Circles Around This Town, a new song that is likely to be the lead single to her upcoming third studio album that is expected to be released later this year. Circles Around This Town makes a solid debut at #19, becoming Maren’s ninth chart entry and fifth to make it to the Top20. The final two new entries go to newcomer Gayle and her breakthrough hit abcdefu at #27, and Ella Henderson and her new track Brave at #28.

Other talking points this week: While Little Mix’ No may still be on a decline and falls 13-17 this week, the song gets certified with Gold, being just their second song scoring a certification following their Platinum certified hit Sweet Melody from late 2020. There are also further good news for Swedish singer Agnes, as her Fingers Crossed refuses to die and jumps back up 31-26 instead.

FKA twigs & The Weeknd’s Tears In The Club is the biggest climber while Ariana Grande & Kid Cudi's Just Look Up already drops 9-36 as the biggest loser this week.

Album Top20

Spoiler!

New year, new number one, and the first lucky album to top the list in 2022 is the soundtrack to Arcane: League Of Legends. The set already scored a strong debut a week ago and rises 2-1 now, giving the League Of Legends universe a perfect score so far, as the game already produced the chart-topping All Out EP that keeps smashing as well over a year after its release (6-9).

At first it looked like Halsey may have the first top album of 2022 though, as the singer released a deluxe edition to her latest album If I Can’t Have Love, I Want Power in the middle of the week and since the album has already been charting high in the past several weeks, it was a huge contender to get back to the top for a second non-consecutive week. However, the soundtrack to Arcane: League Of Legends ended up too strong and so Halsey finally rises 3-2 instead.

Three new entries are on the charts and the highest completes the Top3 - Mamaru by RuPaul. The Mother of all Drag Queens has released her new album this week and debuts at #3 with it. It’s her second chart entry on the Album Top20, as she already peaked at #3 with American in mid 2020, though that was a late discovery back then, making Mamaru the first actual new release for the Drag superstar.

Other new and re-entries this week: The second highest new arrival goes to Romanian Dance-Pop queen Inna, who released a mini album called Champagne Problems #DQH1 that enters the charts at #4. It becomes Inna’s eighth chart entry since making a first impact with I Am The Club Rocker back in 2011, with all of these eight albums having peaked in the Top5 so far. Though with that being said, Inna’s first five entries all peaked in the Top2 and got certified with either Gold or Platinum, while her past two albums Yo (#5 in 2019) and Heartbreaker (#3 in 2020) didn’t get a certification so far. Finally, the third and final debut of the week goes to The Weeknd, who released a new album called Dawn FM. The concept album debuts at #6, being his sixth chart notation so far but first to miss out on a debut in the Top2.

There are also two re-entries on the charts, the first being Folklore by Taylor Swift. The set keeps coming back from time to time and does so at #16 this time. The other re-entry is a rather surprising one, as it’s Khalid’s Scenic Drive at #17. The album only charted for one week at #15 in late 2021 and therefore hasn’t been a big success, but it kept being close to the Top20 since it left and finally makes it back now.

Other talking points this week: Taylor Swift’s Red (Taylor’s Version) drops 1-5, leaving the Top3 for its first time after seven consecutive weeks. Besides the re-entry for Folklore, there’s still another reason for her to celebrate, as Evermore rises back into the Top10 (12-10). Finally, Summer Walker is also about to reach the upper half, as her Still Over It increases 14-11 following its arrival a week ago.

Bubbling Under

Spoiler!

The soundtrack to Arcane: League Of Legends looks to be a first big highlight of the new year, as besides topping the album charts this week, half of the Bubbling Under chart also comes from it. There’s a very clear frontrunner though, as Bea Miller’s Playground was easily the biggest song of the week overall (singles charts included) and tops this list for a second week in a row. It’s still followed by Pvris & Miyavi’s Snakes (2-2), while Dynasties And Dystopia by Denzel Curry, Gizzle & Bren Joy (4-3), Dirty Little Animals by Bones UK (3-5) and What Could Have Been by Sting feat. Ray Chen (8-9) are the other three entries from the soundtrack.

Besides Arcane, it’s definitely also RuPaul’s week. The Mother of all Drag Queens has released her new album Mamaru this week and scores a good debut on the Album Top20 with it, but also gets a high charting single on the Singles Top40. Additionally to these, Fascination stands out as an early highlight on Mamaru and debuts at #4 on the Bubbling Under chart.

Joining Arcane and Mamaru in the Top3 on the Album Top20 is Halsey, who released a deluxe edition to her latest album If I Can’t Have Love, I Want Power, so it’s not too surprising to see her getting the second highest debut on the list this week, as the new track People Disappear Here is new at #6.

A third and final debut goes to Michael Schulte, as the German singer has released a new single called Remember Me (#10).

Alicia Keys completes the Bubbling Under chart with Nat King Cole (5-7) and Only You (7-8).

All Too Well really got me back over Christmas & also due to listening to it through the year-end countdowns. What a stunning song!
Yeah, I actually feel similar. Saw the movie over Christmas and really enjoyed it, but I got over the song rather quickly so a big drop is incoming...

I was actually watching the movie while I was reading this comment and I really enjoyed it, too. I believe that's exactly the course of action that would be taken if a comet were to directly impact Earth, which is kinda bleh.

...

I was actually watching the movie while I was reading this comment and I really enjoyed it, too. I believe that's exactly the course of action that would be taken if a comet were to directly impact Earth, which is kinda bleh.

...by The Weeknd? I'm afraid it's not a standout on the album for me... but glad there's still a lot you're enjoying on the latest chart!

And yes, the movie is really good and the actors all did so well there. It's funny seeing this as someone who lives in Europe because the movie came across as how the US government handled the Corona pandemic until the president changed... I mean Meryl was basically playing a female (and funny) version of Trump. But yeah, it would definitely go like that which is so sad but yet not so surprising...

Singles Top40

Spoiler!

2022 already starts with a bang, as an impressive 11 new entries are on the Singles Top40 this week from nearly 20 new tracks that were close to making the chart. And all but one of them even arrive in the upper half of the Top40. That makes the new entry atop the chart probably even more impressive, as it’s a song that was already released in mid 2020 and finally finds its way to the Singles Top40: Ding by Feuerschwanz feat. Melissa Bonny. Feuerschwanz is a German Medieval-Rock band who already made their very first chart notation across all three lists with their new album Memento Mori two weeks ago, while Melissa Bonny is a Rock singer from Switzerland. They teamed up to cover Ding, which was originally released by Reggae band Seeed back in 2005 and has been a big hit in German speaking countries back then. The combination looks weird at first, but as a fan of the original song and as a fan of the Medieval-Rock genre, the cover works perfectly and immediately debuts at #1 as the first chart notation on the singles charts for both artists.

Additionally, Untot im Drachenboot gets Feuerschwanz a second entry this week at #12. It’s been released as a single of their current album Memento Mori already last year and finally finds its way to the Top40 as well.

RuPaul was already a contender for the top spot a week ago when Just What They Want made a strong comeback, and even though the song falls 2-7 this week, the Mother was still a strong competitor this week as well, as she arrives at #2 with the new single Catwalk feat. Skeltal Ki. The song also serves as the new runway theme of the 14th season of RuPaul’s Drag Race that just started. Furthermore, RuPaul also keeps charting with Smile (12-20).

German Pop singer Leony completes the Top3 with her new single Remedy that arrives at #3. It’s her fourth chart notation to date and all have reached the Top10, with Faded Love having made the start in Spring 2021 (#2), while Raindrops with Katja Krasavice (9-16) and Pieces with AVAION & VIZE (23-28) are still charting.

Other new entries this week: A fourth new entry makes the Top10 and it’s coming from German Pagan-Folk band Faun, who are preparing the release of their upcoming new album Pagan. They actually already released three songs from the record and two appear on the charts, with Wainamoinen (#9) having a slightly better debut than the Lindy-Fay Hella assisted Galdra (#14). The band keeps being hit or miss, as they already released tons of singles, but only three made an appearance previously with Federkleid (#2 in 2016), Feuer (#3 in 2018) and Sieben Raben (#2 in 2019). Them and Feuerschwanz are not the only artists from the Rock genre to impact the charts this week though, as British Rock band Muse also do a comeback with their new single Won’t Stand Down. While the band has gone into a more Electronic or Pop route lately, they finally return to Rock with the new song and enter the charts at #11 with it. It’s just their fifth but highest peaking song to date.

French mastermind Stromae is up next with L’enfer, the second single to his upcoming third album Multitude. The song debuts at #15, which is slightly better than the #22 peak of his previous single Santé. Years & Years also does better than previously, as his new single Sooner Or Later makes it to #17 this week. His third album Night Call will be released next Friday and while Sooner Or Later is already the fourth entry from it, the previous two songs only peaked at #30 and at #40. Also making the Top20 is Gjon’s Tears’ Silhouette at #18, the long awaited follow-up to his Eurovision hits Tout l’univers (2021) and Répondez-moi (2020). The 11th and final debut goes to Avril Lavigne, who teamed up with blackbear on I Love It When You Hate Me, that serves as the second single to her upcoming new album Love Sux. The song enters the charts at #26, which is an improvement over the #38 peaking Bite Me from late last year.

Other talking points this week: Following the release of her new mixtape Caprisongs, FKA twigs finally scores her first Top10 hit as a lead artist with Tears In The Club rising 11-8. It’s her second Top10 appearance overall, as she was featured on Ty Dolla $ign’s Ego Death that peaked at #4 in mid 2020. Taylor Swift may leave the Top10 with All Too Well (Taylor’s Version) this week (6-13), but the song gets certified with Gold, making it her 12th certified song to date. Finally, there are several big drops on the charts this week, but Aurora probably suffers the most, as all of her four chart entries have relatively big drops, with Everything Matters (13-22) and A Dangerous Thing (20-29) both leaving the Top20, while Heathens (21-32) and Midas Touch (24-38) are even about to leave the chart completely. But this may already change completely next week, as the Norwegian singer will finally release her highly anticipated new album The Gods We Can Touch then, what may give the songs another boost.

FKA twigs & The Weeknd’s Tears In The Club is the biggest climber for a second week in a row while Within Temptation’s Forsaken (The Aftermath) (15-36) and Maren Morris’ Circles Around This Town (19-40) both fall 21 spots each as the biggest losers this week.

Album Top20

Spoiler!

2022 continues with being surprisingly busy, as there are another four new arrivals on the charts this week. But despite that, the three most successful albums from a week ago continue with being the true standouts of the year so far, with the soundtrack to Arcane: League Of Legends also spending a second week atop the charts rather easily. Meanwhile, Mamaru by RuPaul switches places with Halsey’s If I Can’t Have Love, I Want Power, as the Mother of all Drag Queen rises 3-2 for a new peak, while Halsey’s set dips 2-3 in its 20th charting week.

The highest of the new entries just misses out on a Top3 debut by coming in fourth: Caprisongs by FKA twigs. While the set could be seen as a regular album, the singer promotes it as a mixtape. It becomes her third chart notation on the album charts following M3LL155X (#2 in 2015) and Magdalene (#4 in 2019), with the potential of becoming her biggest success to date now that she just scored her first Top10 hit as a lead artist with Tears In The Club.

Other new entries this week: The second highest debut of the week goes to Swiss singer Bastian Baker and his new album Stories Of The XXI, that enters the chart at #7. Similar to FKA twigs, Bastian also scores his third entry through this, as he previously peaked at #12 with Facing Canyons back in 2015, while his self-titled album Bastian Baker made it all the way to #3 in 2018. American Folk-Rock band The Lumineers just misses out on the upper half, as their fourth album Brightside arrives at #11 this week. All of their studio albums made the charts so far, though The Lumineers (#6 in 2013), Cleopatra (#4 in 2016) and III (#9 in 2019) all made the Top10. It’s a similar situation for Christian Rock group Skillet, as their previous two chart entries Unleashed (2016) and Victorious (2019) both peaked at #4, while their new album Dominion fails to come close to that by debuting at #13 this week.

Other talking points this week: With Feuerschwanz also finally making an impact on the singles charts, the German Medieval-Rock band also rises back up 7-6 with Memento Mori on the album charts. Inna’s Champagne Problems (4-5), The Weeknd’s Dawn FM (6-8), Alicia Keys’ Keys (8-9) and Taylor Swift’s Red (Taylor’s Version) (5-10) are all also still charting in the upper half, though the latter is having a bigger than usual drop. Overall it looks like Taylor is starting to decline now, as she also drops 10-16 with Evermore, while Folklore already leaves the chart again (ex #16). Summer Walker still holds up well just outside the Top10 with Still Over It (11-12), while Agnes repeats her #15 spot for a third week in a row with Magic Still Exists.

Bubbling Under

Spoiler!

There’s still no competition for Bea Miller on the Bubbling Under chart, as the singer spends a third consecutive week atop the list with Playground from the Arcane: League Of Legends soundtrack. The song also keeps being the most played track of the week for another week. There are still three more songs from the soundtrack on the list, though they’re all going down with Pvris & Miyavi’s Snakes dipping 2-3, Denzel Curry, Gizzle & Bren Joy’s Dynasties And Dystopia decreasing 3-6, and Bones UK’s Dirty Little Animals dropping 5-10.

It’s a good week for the League Of Legends universe overall, as two tracks from K/DA’s All Out EP re-enter the list with Drum Go Dum (#2) and Villain (#4).

The list is getting completed by four singles that were released this week but miss out on the main chart. First up is Dead On The Beach by Aly & AJ, that scores the highest debut at #5. The sisters keep throwing out singles but also continue to fail making a bigger impact with these. Newcomer Lauren Spencer Smith is having her breakthrough all around the world with Fingers Crossed, that is in a similar lane like Olivia Rodrigo or Gayle’s abcdefu. The song debuts at #7 and may move to the main chart at some point. Swiss band Pegasus are new at #8 with Once In A Lifetime, while Latin-Pop stars Alvaro Soler and David Bisbal teamed up on A Contracorriente, which is the final debut at #9. Chris Brown’s new single Iffy and Luca Hänni’s new track Warum musstest du gehen were also on the shortlist but even miss out on the Bubbling Under chart due to a strong competition and busy week.

15 (NEW) Stroame – L’enfer - classy. I guess we shouldn't expect massive pop/dance bangers from Stromae, he's now matured as an artist
