Weekly Most Played

This week has proved a busy one with a large number of re-entries and overall songs charting. Up at the top, Kylie shoots back to #1 with New York City, although just 12 plays were required, the lowest threshold in chart history. Lena comes a close second, just a play behind, with flute-filled album track note to myself. The song leads the rest of parent album Only Love, L which re-enters and debuts in its entirety this week. The only other album to appear in full is Carly Rae Jepsen's Dedicated. Despite this, this week has been a tough one for it with many of the tracks lingering in the 20s, despite a healthy 5 plays. This continues a trend of flatness across the chart, with a lower than average number of plays required to take a top 5 spot and a higher than average number of plays required to make it into the top 10 and 20. The chart's stagnation is somewhat alleviated by new singles from Róisín Murphy and Shura, both of which make impressive debuts. Finally, a few older tracks are also included in the sea of re-entries with Kimbra's Cameo Lover, Britney's Do You Wanna Come Over? and two songs from Robyn's 2018 album Honey.
