Chart Final: A sad #1, a Blue Tsunami and We’re Feeling Fine
Olivia Rodrigo’s you seem pretty sad for a girl so in love returns to #1 on this week’s HITS Top 50 chart; the Interscope set adds 56k+ to its ATD, most of that in streams. With Grammy nominations due on Nov. 16, we imagine the mood in O-Rod’s camp will be anything but sad.
Buoyed by the requisite Halloween streams (and screams) as well as new vinyl iterations, Michael Jackson’s pop masterpiece Thriller (Legacy) zombie-shuffles to #2 with a terrifying 53k.
Big Loud/Mercury’s Morgan Wallen, SAWGOD/Columbia’s Ella Langley and Mercury’s Noah Kahan round out the Top 5.
The week’s more significant debuts come from Belift Lab/Geffen’s ILLIT (#6 with 35k) and UnitedMasters’ BigXthaPlug (#7 with nearly 33k). Matador’s Queens of the Stone Age, meanwhile, achieve a regal Top 15 premiere with Perfecth. Another veteran rock troupe, UMG-distribbed Nickelback, earns a Top 30 bow with Everything Under the Sun.
What’s new? Apart from those election results, we mean? Well, enough freshly minted offerings to fill the space below your Christmas tree. The list we haven’t checked twice includes QC/Motown/Capitol’s Lil Baby, Atlantic Outpost’s Sam Barber, Columbia’s Dove Cameron, Sony Nashville’s Dylan Marlowe, FMLY/Island’s Jessie Reyez, Atlantic’s James Blunt, B-ME/BMSG’s BE:FIRST, Warner’s Royal Blood, Big Loud’s Ashley Cooke, River House/Warner Records Nashville’s Hudson Westbrook, LoveTap/Virgin’s Kings of Leon, Epiphany/Virgin’s Alanis Morissette, MDDN/Atlantic’s Good Charlotte and Nashville Harbor/Big Machine’s The Band Perry.
Phew! Now, let’s get back to that list of subpoenas.
