Beyond Radio is the place where music discovery and music nostalgia collide. It is your one-stop source for playlists, music charts, remembrances and recommendations. Our Podcast and music therapy playlists combine elements of nostalgia and discovery, while my blog entries reflect on our musical past through the lens of my personal charts from decades past. I weave a story that includes the connection between artists, chart facts and personal anecdotes that hopefully conjure a connection to the soundtrack of your own life. The current charts and playlists are updated monthly or bi-monthly (bi-weekly for the BR250) and are curated based on a passionate audience that produce their own personal charts weekly.
It’s a grande week for Ariana. 8 songs from the new album “Thank You, Next” make the top 20 this week with 3 in the top 5 including this week’s #1 “Break Up With Your Girlfriend, I’m Bored”. It was fueled by 29 adds with 3 debuting at #1.
The second most added song, with 17 this week, lands at #3. The collab between the Chainsmokers and Five Seconds Of Summer “Who Do You Love” previews their upcoming fall tour together.
A Grammy win for album of the year gives Kacey Musgraves’ “Rainbow” a massive jump to #2 with 2 #1’s and a #2 among the 14 adds. Also benefiting from her Grammy performance and wins, Brandi Carlile’s “The Joke” garnered 6 adds landing the song at #23. It will be interesting to see how radio responds to these 2 songs.
In total 8 songs received double digit adds including Grande’s “Bloodline” at #4, Khalid/Disclosure’s “Talk” at #6, Marina’s “Handmade Heaven” #7, “Bury A Friend” which drops 1-9 this week and the return of Katy Perry with Zedd on “365” at #13.
That song is the highest 1st week entry. Right behind at #14 is Avril Lavigne featuring Nicki Minaj with a classic Lavigne sound on “Dumb Blonde”. On the rivalry front Minaj nemesis Cardi B sees a 1st week entry at #20 with her latest collab with Bruno Mars. Next week will undoubtedly see a surge for this song.
You can listen to the top 40 plus this week on Spotify.
