This reminds me how much I need Kelly to do a full country album! Her voice sounds so pretty here.

Not a fan of this. It's too clean and loses the charm that the original has. Although Kelly delivers some amazing vocals in the second half.

She sounds great. The production could've been a bit better, although I quite like the direction it was going in? A sort of heavier/edgier production compared to the original. The only thing I would've liked was if Kelly had layered more vocals on the chorus. I think another 2-3 layers of her vocals would've made the chorus pop more or maybe even take it to the extreme and layer in 5-10 more.

They should make and release limited edition CDs for "Running Up That Hill" with Stranger Things artwork the day the final epsiodes are added. Would scure the Hot 100 #1.
I'm still hoping Lizzo has a chance at #1 when her album is released, or at the very least a new peak.

I would love Hounds Of Love to go top 10 at some point in the next few weeks. I hope Kate's label get printing some vinyls or something for it!

Leona has a collab on a Alexis Ffrench's most recent album.
Her voice sounds really pretty. I need her to do a full on classical album at some point. Take a year or two to train and record for it. Her voice shines brightest in classical/operatic music imo.

Amazing to see how stable "Running Up That Hill" is!
I'm really hoping that it'll be able to get to #1 on the Hot 100 the week the final 2 episodes of Stranger Things are released. Apparantly the song is going to be used again in one of the episodes. Plus a lot of people are holding out until the final episodes are added so they can binge watch it. I have a feeling the first week of July the song is going to explode again, perhaps even reaching a higher peak than it already has? *_*
Also the final episodes are released on a Friday which is perfect timing for the song to get a full week for the boost.

I would not be surprised if this gets to #1 on the Hot 100 following the release of the final episodes (if it doesn't get there before then at this point). They've confirmed the song will be used at least once more. I'm so glad for a split season. It'll help with the song's longevity as there are a lot of people waiting for the season to end to binge watch it. Its stability so far has been great to see.

Coming for a 5th long-lasting hit! I hope it'll manage a top 20 peak at least. With its airplay climbing and the recent album bombs dying down, it should have a fairly easy path there (I hope).

This era is over, I think. I don't think it's over, more so on hiatus? I assume we'll get the next single news around the time when she does her UK hyde park gigs at the start of July. I assume there's be some more concrete information regarding her Vegas show which is still meant to be happening this year. Watch her cancel the UK gigs though and the only thing we get is more pictures/videos of her at NBA games. :(

Re-enters at #10 in Ireland, previous peak in 1985 was #4 and the 2012 remix charted at #22. All top 10 peaks in other countries so far this year (original 1985 peak in brackets) #2 Australia (#6) #2 New Zealand (#26) #3 Lithuania (/) #4 Switzerland (#10) #8 United Kingdom (#3) #10 Ireland (#4) Has a good chance of #2 this week in the UK to reach a new peak as its holding on really well! So great to see it reaching new peaks in a number of countries and charting for the first time in some too.

I wonder how high it will go US spotify. These are the last few days:
28th 290,635 29th 721,939 (+431,304) 30th 1,310,081 (+588,142) 31st 2,112,761 (+802,680)
I wouldn't be surprised if it peaked with 4-5 million if the rate of gains continues for a couple more days. Perhaps it could even challenge for #1 on the Hot 100 next week?!
#1 iTunes, #1 & #4 Amazon, #1 Spotify, #1 Amazon Music, #4 Apple Music, #6 Youtube.

I think she could make #1 when her album is released. By the time the album is released this will hopefully be high in airplay/at its airplay peak. Maybe some promo performances for the album/song and the album streaming boost could help get it to #1. It may even make it to #1 beforehand as the album boosts for Jack Harlow/Harry Styles continue to fade and their songs will peak/start losing airplay soon whilst Lizzo continues to climb.

I really hope the song can reach a new peak on the Hot 100. Given the way things are going I assume it's almost a given that it should re-enter the top 50?
There's currently a new entry on Kworb's daily US youtube chart
10 NEW Unknown Artist - Unknown Title 1,184,312
I assume that it's for "Running Up That Hill". If so, it's doing 500k+ views/day in the US currently on there.
#4 on Global spotify with over 5 million streams. I hope it keeps rising and maybe even gets playlist support/added to today's top hits etc.

#13 on Global spotify with ~2.8 million streams.
It's risen into the top 10 of iTunes/Apple Music/Spotify/Amazon etc in a lot of countries. So happy this song is having such a massive resurgence because of Stranger Things!

It's quite amazing how big of a boost "Running Up That Hill" is getting, not just in the US but globally. It's rising strongly on all digital platforms (iTunes/Apple Music/Spotify/Deezer/Shazam/Youtube/Amazon Music etc).
In the US it's #1 iTunes (with a big lead and it continues to grow), #18 Spotify, #26 Apple Music.
I'm really surprised at how well it's doing on Apple Music. Even with sales so low, I hope they can be enough for the song to manage to re-enter the top 50 on the Hot 100. The youtube views are shooting up as well and it'll likely start appearing on the daily US chart on kworb tomorrow. Of course it could continue its momentum and do massive numbers on spotify in the coming days (or so I hope!).

Now that the album bombs are over, RISE LIZZO RISE!
She's now top 50 on Triple A - charting in the top 50 of 7 airplay formats (POP/HAC/Rhythmic/Urban/R&B/Triple A/Dance). It'll likely be 8 at some point soon once an AC station or two starts playing it (you need 6 spins to chart top 50 on AC).

Top 50 on Triple A now too:
56 49 LIZZO About Damn Time 83 66 17 0.268
Multi-format queen. :'(
Also rises into the top 20 on the weekly US youtube views chart for the first time on Kworb (#18 with ~2.88 million views) and reaches a new peak of #14 on the US daily chart.

I hope they push this ASAP. Will likely be a big hit if they do. It's already been doing its own thing on streaming services and such!

The fact the only promo the album is now getting is whenever she watches basketball. :'(
I really do hope they release a single for the summer but I think they'll go with "I Drink Wine" September/October then Grammys performance of "Easy On Me" 2023 (possibly sweeping although not so sure about that) and end it there.

So glad to see it getting such consistent/good updates across all formats! I hope it continues.
The youtube views have been increasing a bit again. It's been in the daily US chart top 20 for a few days now. Last week it rose from 96 to 31 in the US youtube chart (adding over 1 million views week on week). It'll likely increase a bit more when the weekly chart is next updated!
It's holding really well on spotify having continued to do 1 million+ even despite all the album bombs etc.

I think "About Damn Time" will be in it for the long haul to get to #1 due to all the albums bombs etc. I think its best chance will be album release week in July. Its airplay should be at its peak then and get a nice streaming boost hopefully.

"This Hell" out now.
I like it. Sounds like it'll be a grower.
Excited for her next album!

Lizzo is #2 on Today's Top Hits playlist on spotify now *_* Rise bitch.
A new high of 1.276 million streams for "About Damn Time" in today's update too despite the flood of Kendrick.
The music video views have been increasing quite a bit the last few days and it appears in the daily US chart for the first time I believe at #18 with 818,502 views the last couple of days.
I think it stands a really good chance at #1 on the Hot 100 in the future. "As It Was" will have an album boost, but it has almost peaked in airplay and that will likely decrease quite soon. "About Damn Time" is rising quite nicely in airplay and has the potential for quite a high audience peak due to how multi-format it is, charting on POP/HAC/Rhythmic/Urban/R&B. Its airplay and streaming look to be on track to peak at around the same time.
Of course there's the question of Kendrick and if any of the songs from his album will have legs outside the first week. I assume he'll get a number of debuts in the top 10, including #1 if his streams hold up well.

Just realised Today's Top Hits updated yesterday and it's #2 on there (biggest spotify playlist). That's massive and going to help its streams a lot globally this upcoming week (IIRC it was #20 on the playlist before).
Also appears on the daily youtube chart in the US for the first time with 818,502 views the last couple of days. It's now doing 650-700k views/day globally, up from 400-450k views/day earlier this week. Glad to see its youtube views picking up *_*

Reaches a new streaming high of 1,263,720 streams on US spotify and 3,868,195 globally (up almost 1 million compared to last week globally).
#3 iTunes, #5 spotify, #53 Apple Music.
Lower on Apple Music due to Future/Jack Harlow/Bad Bunny/Kendrick Lamar album bombs. Will fall on spotify tomorrow with Kendrick's new album out but may reach another new peak in streams.
Happy to see this picking up on radio. Top 10 on the Hot 100 soon I hope!
