Not to mention the lack of shirtless Calvin in the video is simply unacceptable. fixed

Well, I haven't mentioned anything about the video because I wanted to avoid first reactions, but I like it, assuming Haim are portraying three witches in different locations and hanging out with the animals. However, it's definitely not Calvin's best video mainly because he doesn't appear on it and he could have made, at least, a 'cameo' on his song

The song re-entered at #77 on the Official Singles Sales Chart and debuted at #27 on the Dance Singles Chart. It's currently inside the Top 50 on the UK iTunes, so it's expected to enter this week on the Official Singles Chart. ETA: It's at #70 on the midweek update.

From Music Week: Yay! :) Also, it debuts at #62 in Ireland. By the way, it's playlisted by Capital FM and it's up to the B-list on the BBC Radio 1 playlist. Maybe, it could leap to the A-list this week as well.

Well, it leaps to the A-list on the BBC Radio 1 playlist a week before its official release in the UK. YES! By the way, it's at #44 on the midweek update. I personally doubt it will crack the Top 40 this week because of the BRIT Awards effect and streaming, but it will definitely do next week. Also, I hope this reaches the Top 10 too, so Calvin could continue with his milestone there.

"Pray to God" reaches new peaks in Ireland (#45) and the UK (#57), as well as it makes its debut in New Zealand at #39. From Music Week: However, looks like this is struggling in the UK and this may break his Top 10 streak there. If this indeed happens (*), I have to say that I wasn't expecting this to be that song, since it's one of the standout tracks from Motion, although it was about to happen at some point to be honest. I previously mentioned that this had a good shot to enter into the Top 40 this week, but this may not gonna happen, since it was at #53 on the midweek update. The track is currently at #26 on iTunes, but it's at #86 on Spotify (behind "Outside", "Blame" and "Summer"), so I guess this is going to need some key promotion in this platform. Having said that, I'm not expecting something similar like "Blame" had in its first week of release, but anything could help at this point The good thing is that the Calvin Harris vs Mike Pickering Haçienda remix was up on some European iTunes stores, as well as Oceania yesterday, so I expect it would appear this Sunday there too. (*) It will depend if "Pray to God" have some longevity after its official release next week and Calvin doesn't announce a new single soon there.

Despite it's playlisted by Capital FM, it's been said that this radio station doesn't play the track too much, so the only radio support it has right now is BBC Radio 1.

Despite being at #32 on the midweek update, "Pray to God" lands at #39 this week in the UK. It falls from its #35 peak, where it stayed there for two consecutive weeks. Sadly, this is not going further, so it's shame it didn't do as the previous singles from Motion. Also, it peaked at #27 on the Official Singles Sales Chart and #58 on the Official Audio Streaming Chart.
As a side, it reaches a new peak in Ireland at #22.
